Ian Rappaport reporting Josh McDaniels likely to Indy
 

Sounds like DC Patricia is likely to leave for either Detroit or new york as well

So that's kind of a downer for the Titans, no?

I thought that was the reason they were moving on from Mularkey. Maybe they'll hire Bob Sutton. Do they have a Rooney Rule for old, demented, wash-ups?

Bob Sutton to Titans!!!!

Dick Lebeau to the Chiefs?

/drool

So Deflategate never happened?

I'm watching GMF right this moment. Rappaport just said McD is likely headed to Indy. :shake:

Jeff Fisher back to Tennessee

If I am McD I am trying to get all the latest reports on Luck before signing on the dotted line.

Reid back to Arthur Bryant's

Actually, I could see Schwartz being top of their list. And they could actually get him.

If luck is healthy look out. My gut tells me that McD has matured and learned a lot since coaching the Donks

Rap just said that McDaniels would prefer the Titans over all jobs.

Where are you seeing this??

Everything I saw from Rapoport today suggests that McDaniels probably prefers Tennessee.

Given Luck's health, wonder if the Colts draft a QB anyway and dangle as trade bait if Luck doesn't work out. Much as I wish it weren't the case, because I hate Indy... think Rosen would clash with a lot of teams, but McDaniels seems like the right kind of asshole to keep another asshole in line.

ROFL

Tennessee is a better job currently than Indy IMO.

Better overall roster, less crazy ownership, etc.

The only thing Indy has going for it is Andrew Luck but that is obviously a huge question mark with his health situation.

ROFL

Apprently he's a Jack Stack fan though...

He'd be reunited with Matt "Ice" Cassel in TN.

The Titans should have been a lot better than they were. That roster is pretty nice. And Mariota has a sky high ceiling.

LOL. That was a complete farce.

I agree, that only makes sense. If Todd Haley could control his Mrs. and their night life he might be better the second time around as well.

Now he’s heading to Indy.

NY - Shurmer
INDY - McDaniels
DET - Patricia
CHI - Nagy
TENN - ?
ARI - ?

Tenn wants to interview Mike Vrabel

Shitty year to need a coach

**** Donk Forever

Hopefully, the 2nd time works out better for him...

MHM wants Mcdaniels back.

Sick of Radio

If I was the Indianapolis sports writer, my headline would be, "Colts Come Up Short In Coaching Search".

As long as he stays away from the GM role, he might be ok.

This is true. Colts have Luck, Hilton, and very little else. Tennessee just needs a good coach to get the most out of Mariota.

That roster is pretty damn good.

I'm still not sold on Luck ever being the same QB again. Think Grigson ruined him.

I guess Dave Toub really screwed himself this season.

A well deserved ****ening if I've ever seen one. Our special teams performed like ****ing idiots this year.

ROFL Titans ****ing suck and Surfer Boy is garbage most games. Worse loss in team history...

And if I was your editor I would change it:

Colts UnLucky in Coaching Search.

Hiring DeGuglielmo as OLine coach is interesting. We won the SB in '14 with him as the OLine coach, but the line regressed badly in 2015, and so BB fired him and Pats got Scar back. I guess Josh didn't think nearly as badly of him as BB did.

Looks like the Colts are moving to the 4-3. Wonder if we can pry any of their 3-4 players from them.

Would gladly take Jabaal Sheard

I would prefer we switch as well. We have to completely overhaul the front seven. It’s the smart move, I think.

It's been a long, long time since we've seen bad special teams play. Was it exceptionally brilliant this year? Of course not. But far from bad.

What an asshole.

Career suicide for McDummy. He will never get a HC interview ever again.

Todd Haley was right. Irsay should sue that little puke.

It's official: McDouchebag hasn't changed one bit since Denver. Between that and the horrible track record of Belicheat's assistants away from the cheating in Foxboro, the Colts got bailed out of a huge mistake.

Moron.

I worry that Toub might be shoulder-tapped by Ballard...

McDaniels following in Big Daddy Belicheat’s footsteps by accepting a job and then backing out. What a little bitch.

Wow.....unreal.

Did Bill promise he could take over in Foxboro after he retires?

What a dick. They waited for him and screwed them.

Think of all the intel the Colts gave up to him during all those interviews. Contracts were in place for three of McDaniels assistants.

If I’m the Colts, I break Brady’s leg first opportunity.... then we see how good Josh is as a coach.

I still think Bill leaves before next year. Just a feeling

If he verbally accepted the contract, could Indy **** the Patriots over and demand compensation to allow him to return to the Pats?

God I hope so. They likely need pen to paper proof though, or some form of verified commitment.

I’m not a lawyer, but the Colts making the announcement and scheduling the press conference is pretty damning evidence that they had a verbal agreement.

There goes Toub..

Remember when the DeGugli Elmo was THE x-mas gift all the kids in Jersey wanted?!?!

Josh will clearly be the coach in 19. Bills contract is up after 18 I believe. Josh is stupid though. The staff will suck after that and Brady will be done at 42.

The Colts need to go after the Pats for compensation.

Let’s trade the colts Toub for a 1st!

If the Colts are smart (and apparently, they're not), they should target Frank Reich as their new head coach.

He's done wonders with Wentz and Foles.

Why? What has Toub done here that's so impressive? Our return teams have sucked absolute ass.

this move reeks of billecheat retiring

Text from one league source: “That’s Kraft putting it to the Colts again. He will forever try and (expletive) that place ever since deflate gate.”

LMAO If that's true i can't even be mad.

Not happening.

In not sure this isn't a kraft move.


Its a fluid situation

Holy ****. The Colts already signed the DC and DL coach that McDaniels wanted. The new HC doesn't even get to pick his staff.

josh just screwed the pooch on this one. i hope kraft cheesy balls taste good.

Kraft ponied up the money to keep Bradys coffee boy and promised him the HC job in 19. Bank on it.

Wow so he ****ed those coaches over too.

Good luck putting a staff together next time jackass.

Gawd, they just took a huge dump right on Ballards FACE

Either Josh is dumb or Luck's shoulder is completely done.

More proof that McDaniels had verbally accepted the offer to become the Colts head coach. I would be demanding compensation if I’m Jim airway.

One thing Todd Haley was most right about was McKid

Agreed. Reich deserves a shot.

Would the NFL let them out of those contracts, considering the situation?

Reich to Indy and Indy trades for Nick Foles. Indy then trades Luck to Cleveland for a second round pick.
