Who said it's lonely at the top? The Eagles have company as the Bengals make a late surge in ConorOrr's Week 15 Power Rankings
Here’s an interesting thought experiment as we head into a new week of NFL football. Jeff Saturday’s Colts surrendered theon Saturday. My immediate reaction was that this should automatically disqualify him from the full-time gig, which owner Jim Irsay very much wants Saturday, an interim coach, to earn throughout the remainder of this season.
But after a few nights of sleep, I wondered if this mindset is part of the problem—if we somehow foist our collective impatience on ownership. To be clear, I think Saturday should climb the ladder like the rest of those in the profession and that Marcus Brady or Bubba Ventrone should currently be the head coach of the Colts .
If you’re Irsay, the challenge should be to make a broader, more legitimate evaluation. Owners who really want to make something work can normally make something work by providing support and resources. Owners who want to look a certain way fire someone when the going gets tough. We’re about to head into a coaching hiring and firing cycle where a handful of people could lose jobs because of a lack of said support and resources, because of someone else’s poor decision-making or because they were the coach during a game when something very public and embarrassing happened.
My question is: Will Irsay have the internal fortitude to double down on Saturday? Or, will he use The Comeback as an excuse to bail on an experiment that has already drastically altered the career paths of dozens of people?
