Great move for Carolina.

I honestly truly think Irsay wanted to tank this year .. and it worked. Team lost their final 7, picking 4th overall with 4 top 10 QB prospects on the board.

Colts and Manders both missed the playoffs.

One is picking a franchise QB .. the other is probably going to go 7-10 next year.

Colts will continue to have an owner that meddles in football operations. Hopefully we won't have that problem anymore.

Also, this is hilarious:

@Schultz_Report
Sources: Jim Irsay’s No. 1 choice for HC remains Jeff Saturday, while others in the #Colts’ front office prefer different leading candidates. Saturday, I’m told, presented his staff choices during his 2nd interview on Wednesday. Irsay has not sat in on most interviews.

Irsay gunning for worst owner spot after Snyder is gone.

Yeah heard this. If they keep Saturday it might be the worst HC decision of all time, in any sport.

Second worst was hiring him in the first place.

Oh, I don't know. Hard to beat the Urban Meyer hire for Jax last year, isn't it?

Agreed. Bobby Petrino might be #2.

Punch I feel like if you're firing your coach midseason the season is a lost cause anyways. I can't remember the last time a midseason-entering HC won anything of note anyways. At least not in the NFL.
