NFL: Frank Reich fired

[davos]

Let's be real, the brother is knee deep in snow and has some high shelf on hand anytime.  

If I was Bubba Ventrone, I'd be starting my feelers.

 Naw he is a professional drunk

 

There's more going on mentally with him than just a drinking problem. Those eyes don't look right

[RJK]

The fact Irsay named Saturday as interim HC kinda absolves Reich. They’re waaay more clown show than Carolina now.

This does too...

The Colts have been trying to get by without a major rebuild for a long time now.

I’m hesitant to say I want Reich as HC but I wouldn’t be mad

Yeah Irsay basically blamed the whole thing on Luck retiring while explaining why he fired Reich. And said other weird poo about sausage and sleep apnea. If he came into my bar while I was working I wouldn't serve him out of suspicion alone, he's obviously not mentally well but has so much money no one is willing to step in and have him get actual help

I would hire Reich and not give it a second thought.  At the very very worst he brings this franchise and offense in particular up to the NFL average with very little risk.

I'm 100% behind hiring Frank Reich as the next head coach. He got a raw deal in Indianapolis. Carson Wentz blows and Matt Ryan was clearly washed. My only concern was how much of their success under Reich was attributed to Eberflus running a badass defense. They fell off hard after he left.

Also I think I saw somewhere that Reich and his family live in NC.

Reich is probably the happiest of all parties about the firing

Reich lived in Charlotte for a period of time before going back to the NFL as a coach. His kids are still here.

He also played for the Panthers as a QB and I believe he threw the first TD pass in franchise history in 95.

“Frank Reich, come on down!”

Bonus pie to any of the youngsters who even recognize the cultural reference.  And if you question whether pie is enough reward, yes, the price is right.

Just appears to be a once good HC that got old and stagnant by NFL standards. I wouldn't discount this as Ballard's time to prove he should stay after the moves they have made recently. 

Luck’s timing to quit football in August vs at his last game of the season, hurt his  franchise and Reich 

getting a qb is something that has to be planned for and it seldom is even,  when teams have time to prepare 

and because they don’t, the franchise gets crippled 

Carolina has been mediocre because of this throughout its history,  same mistake over and over again   Qb doesn't pan out or is broke down, Carolina always waited too long to address it … just a’wishin and a’hopin that Jake’s elbow and Cam’s shoulder wouldn’t be shot and Collins wasn’t a drunk and Weinke would be something he could athletically never be 

New Orleans is in the same place now  so is Tampa when Brady goes and Rivera reaching for Wentz with the Commanders 

nfl teams should be like British royalty, a heir and hopefully a spare 

don’t have a Qb?  It becomes the coach’s fault, right or wrong 

I said it when Rhule passed on Fields or a damned CB, in the NFL, if you ain’t got a QB, you ain’t got nothing.  

Said Qb has to at least be threatening with something,  be it arm, legs or a quick read brain
