That one wouldn't surprise me, given he worked with Wentz in Philly. And to be fair, when was the last time a Carolina QB put up a line like Wentz did under Reich?

Wentz 2021 stats: 3,563 yards (7 ypa, 62.4% comp %), 27 TDs, 7 INTs, 94.5 QB rating (60.6 QBR)

 

Many argued (analyst, talking heads) that he was a product of playing it safe. Weren’t there rumblings that year that ppl were tired of him take the layups 24/7 bc he didn’t want to ruin his stats? 
 

but yes you are right, numbers like those here don’t happen often.

Not being a jerk, how so?

This could be a fun cycle where nothing happens for a while and then all of a sudden every spot is filled within a day or so.

People complaining he never drafted a young QB to coach up probably aren’t aware what options he had.

In his time as HC he only had 1 first round pick, in 2021 at position #21, where the top 5 QBs had already been selected. In all other years his drafts started in round 2.

To specify this is follow Lucks retirement.

This would be my interview question for Reich: 

In 2021, all you had to do was beat a 2-14 Jacksonville team in the final week of the season to make playoffs. Your team lost 26-11 in a game that was never in doubt. Can you explain what happened there? Why was your team not prepared to execute that day?

"Why did the Colts perform better offensively (6 ppg more) against better opponents this season under an ESPN analyst than you, a supposed offensive genius?"

I wouldn't be surprised if Wilks, Moore, and Reich are the only finalists. Basically the best option out of the following groups:

Young Offensive Mind group

• Shane Steichen (virtual)
• Ken Dorsey (in-person)
• Mike Kafka (virtual)
• Kellen Moore (in-person + 2nd interview)

Experienced Offensive HC group

• Jim Caldwell (in-person)
• Frank Reich (in-person + 2nd interview)
• Sean Payton (in-person)

Defensive HC group

• Steve Wilks (in-person + 2nd interview)
• Ejiro Evero (in-person)

I'd love to know what Tepper didn't like over a zoom call for a guy preparing for the NFCCG with a top 3 MVP frontrunner in his room.

What do you mean? They said he didnt interview well. The Panthers, Colts and Texans were the only teams that did early interviews with Steichen. No one else requested

Colts did as well but don't see him landing the gig there either. He may end up being back in Philly.

Who knows, he was tricked by Rhule (who is a dumbass) so hard in the interviews so take this with a grain of salt. Shane probably talked about winning football games which Tepper knows nothing about

Did we talk to Steichen this week? I thought we spoke to him during the Eagles first round bye...
