The #Colts are nearly done with their second round of head coaching interviews and are considering a rare Round 3 as well, sources tell me and @RapSheet.
If they go that route, they’d pare down the list to a select few finalists before making their decision on their next HC.
#Colts GM Chris Ballard and owner Jim Irsay are conducting one of the more thorough searches we’ve seen. Lots of candidates and long in-person interviews (around 12 hours in some cases), so another round to make sure they’re comfortable with their pick would fit.
The Colts are being overly "indepth" to basically cover up they have little idea as to what they are doing. Once they lost Manning everything started to crumble. Then they got LUCKY (yes, intended) but then he too got hurt and left.. So now you lose your one guy holding things together, you have a GM who has been more miss than hit and an owner who is a crackpot (think Davis like with less actual success) who decides to fire his respected coach and hire a guy who NEVER coached before (in the middle of the season).
This search will most likely end with Saturday keeping the job and all new assistants (some probably hired via a musical competition or pie eating contest)..
For example. What is to say that accepting the HC job in Indy wouldn't be an exercise in futility in building a strong relationship with the Owner/GM. If that owner (Irsay) is really set on Jeff Saturday; I would spend a great deal of time nailing down what the roles and relationships would be if I took the HC job. Is Jeff in the building or more importantly anywhere around the locker room or field?
Etc. Etc.

I think so. What was interesting in the Vegas odds is that Wink seems to be higher in the mix for the Colts job.
We could still lose both.
Fuck

Have you ever worked for anybody that put themselves ahead of everybody else on the planet and set you up for failure on a continuous basis?
Yep. Wink seems to have the type the personality that Irsay would love. The Colts are the one that worries me.
We shall see.

I'll let you decide if you think there's another Gatorade Dunk who takes shots at people's poor syntax on the internet.
Great point. Which assistants stand out from the Eagles' and Chiefs' coaching staffs respectively though? Bienemy? Who else? I can't really think anyone else on either staff.
