jetsons Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Colts hire Eagles' Shane Steichen as head coach after Super Bowl (nypost.com) Colts hire Shane Steichen as head coach after Eagles’ Super Bowl run By Justin Terranova February 14, 2023 9:31am Updated Subtitles E Mike Francesa crushes NFover Super B Pelissero: Colts view Eagles OC Shane Steichen as a strong candidate for their head coaching vacancy NFL | 0:39 Colts Hire Eagles OC Shane Steichen as New Head Coach The Colts are following a similar playbook to their previous head coaching hire. Indianapolis announced on Tuesday that they have hired Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen to be their head coach. Steichen was the mind behind an Eagles offense that made a significant jump this year with Jalen Hurts, ending in a 38-35 Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs on Sunday. It comes five years after the Colts hired Frank Reich as head coach after he helped the Eagles win a Super Bowl as offensive coordinator. Reich was fired midseason as the Colts went a disappointing 4-12-1. He was bizarrely replaced by Jeff Saturday, who had no previous coaching experience on the college or NFL level. Now, the 37-year-old Steichen takes over a franchise that is in search of a quarterback after a failed year with veteran Matt Ryan. The Colts have hired Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen as their new head coach. Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge4Tide Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Good move. Sitting at #4, they have to be a little nervous if a QB will fall to them or if they will need to trade up. Chicago is sitting pretty to trade back to 4, 5, or 6 and get a haul. Arizona at #3 could also be in a good trade back spot, unless they are done with Murray and want to take a QB of their own 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Johnathan Gannon Eagles DC is going to be named head coach of Arizona. (Eagles lose both oc and dc in a couple of days) Todd Monken is the new Ravens OC, I would have rather had Monken over Hackett by like a Billion % 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 I wouldn’t be surprised if a team like the Colts instead of drafting a QB thought about making a deal with the Jets for Zach. The Colts new HC has successfully worked with QBs and might feel they could turn him around and instead of going with a new guy day 1 and suffering through a learning curve of a season or more and go with a young player with 22 starts. You’d think the Jets who have committed to signing a veteran would like to trade Zach despite what they’re saying they’ve kind of given up on him. Plus they save money and get back compensation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Darnold was seeing ghosts. Zach Wilson IS a ghost. And your idea doesn't have a ghost of a chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m good with a team going with a young offensive mind instead of a recycled old guy who isn’t on the cutting edge.

And your idea doesn't have a ghost of a chance. Many Jets fans went a 180 on Zach this year they mostly didn’t feel this way after last year. I’m surprised at the ferocity of fans against him. I watched the same games this year and don’t believe he’s washed with no hope. Look he shouldn’t have started from day one even though Saleh claims he won the job in training camp as a rookie. I don’t believe it and I was at the Patriots opening home game his first season and he wasn’t ready to start. He sat out the first 3 games in 2022 with injury and then played well enough to manage 5 Ws until he had two terrible games. He also came close to leading the team to a comeback vs Detroit. Maybe another CS would have more success with Zach. I don’t think he’s done and he has the two key intangibles of a franchise QB: a big arm and mobility.

Not sure whether it was his lack of something or unwillingness to whatever, but after two seasons of opportunity being given to him because of his draft status, at this point, he needs to EARN every snap. In practice, then in a game. EARN IT. I would at this point rather have Carr or Tannehill. Better to give up near nothing instead of weakening the team in terms of cap and draft resources to get downside Rogers for one maybe two years - the team is decent QB play from a playoff berth, but further than that from a Super Bowl run. Rogers won't be around for that by the time the rest of the team is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
