No amazing come back this time.

And if there happens to be a decent QB at his next stop, he will suddenly become smart again.

Funny how that works.

 

[Risen Star]

I'd be all about him as OC.

 

[Stash]

I was wondering if he was going to survive the mess in Indy. I guess we have our answer.

Andrew Luck’s sudden retirement continues to hurt that team.

 

[Risen Star]

You disrespect Wentz and you deal with the consequences.

Be happy you have your teeth.

That was my 1st thought.

Yes please.

They simply could not provide him the OL unit and protection Luck needed in time .. He was beaten so badly he decided to retire, never a thought to un-retire.
and Colts organization could not supplant a long term QB - look at the past QBs they tried to pass thru since Luck retired.
- Brissett
- Rivers
- Wentz
- Matty Ryan
- Sam A.

and Irsay is not a patient owner and authority figure.

totally agree

 

[Jake]

Good for him. Irsay kept meddling in the QB situation and it got worse with each change.

Go home, relax, and take more of Irsay's money. There will be other opportunities.

I'd guess that most who hitched their wagons to Wentz now have a meth habit, so while he's currently fully dentured, history isn't on his side.

Wonder how Chris Ballard managed to survive considering it was his inability to get a QB in the mix that finished off Reich.

 

[Kevinicus]

This is what happens to a HC when they get rid of, or bench, Wentz.

 

[TheCoolFan]

Good firing. GM is probably next. That team is done without a QB, they need to rebuild. If I'm the Chargers, if Payton is not interested then Reich would be a good candidate

 

[Hawkeye0202]

His decision to bring in Wentz last led to this IMO. He went out on the limb and it backfired, real bad. Interesting how Phillip Rivers apparently made him look like a better HC than he actually was.


Exactly what I was saying

 

[Avery]

I kind of thought this would happen and was just a matter if Irsay rode the season out or just chucks it away now to test how the staff would do.

Probably not the worst idea to just tank this season to grab one of the better QB's available in April. Ehlinger seems more like a backup to me at best.

 

[ottawacowpoke]

Washington will hire him as a consultant to work with Wentz

 

[blueblood70]

so?

Wonder how Chris Ballard managed to survive considering it was his inability to get a QB in the mix that finished off Reich.

I'd imagine he will be out soon.
