Wasn’t he the guy who got Luck killed by constantly calling deep shots with a terrible OL?  I feel like I’ve seen this movie before…

Pep’s not horrible.  I mean he is a legit OC vs what we had 

But a guy that couldn’t get it done with Luck is just going to get fired again with Sam Darnold. 

It’s basically what Rhule wants.  Pep is a power run guy at heart.  But for team that claims to be wanting to build from the ground up…..it looks like their goal is build into a .500 team.

Not a knock on him but why come here. Right now your QBs are Sam Darnold and PJ Walker. If we take a QB with the 6th we have no oline and Rhule may be out next year. It's just a bad situation to come to. 

I’m hoping pep says no tbh. Let him roll with Nixon as his OC or maybe Tepper will fire him if he doesn’t get pep. Remember Rhule has to sell to these coaches more so than they have to for him because this is an absolute poo show right now and everyone knows it.

The Colts won their division 2 years in a row with Pep at OC and made it to the AFC championship game. He even called the plays in that AMAZING playoff game against the Chiefs where the Colts came back down 38-10. 

They loss to the Patriots both years in the playoffs.

You gonna be mad if he gets Darnold killed?

I wouldn’t be mad, but even though Darnold sucks it’s not his fault he’s in this position.  He seems like a nice kid, he just blows as an NFL QB.  So I’d prefer not to see him get killed if possible.  If he gets hurt it’s just back to PJ Walker again

What kinda system does he run?

Not kidding:  A "no coast" offense.  The article called him a mutt,  basically referring to a hybrid offense.  He had Luck with no OL in Indy 5-6 years ago and they were decent.  Luck is now retired, however.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
