From the article...

When Indianapolis Colts coach Frank Reich stepped up to the podium after his team’s 27-17 win over the New England Patriots on Saturday, he demanded $20 from a reporter.

The reporter had bet $20 among media members that the Colts wouldn’t score on a Philly Special...the Colts ran the Philly Special for their opening touchdown in Week 15.

So you are a real man on the internet.  Good for you I guess. It's just an odd way to flex on someone just because you don't like the fact he's not your preferred coach, a man you do not know or his family.  I don't think that makes you look like a he-man at all. But you do you. 

I'm not flexing on the coach.

It's purely about that guy's choice to throw away his Panthers Fandom.

Yes I believe you stick with your team. I believe if you were born in NC and root for an NFL team other than the Panthers It's treasonous. Especially Washington. 

I'm not hugely salty about Frank coming in. I just think we will be in the same place we are now in 3 years and looking again.

It is what it is he's average. If he keeps keep pounding going that will be a positive.

I like this guy (Reich) more and more…

I found this blurb from Bill Polian:

Before joining the Colts, Reich worked two years as the offensive coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles, helping them win the Super Bowl in his second season under head coach Doug Pederson.

NFL analyst and former Panthers general manager Bill Polian, who brought Reich with him from Buffalo to Carolina in 1995 to help mentor first-round draft pick Kerry Collins and provide quarterback stability, called Reich “as fine of a person as you'll ever meet” and a head coach with “a great football mind.”

“I think he will fit in perfectly in Carolina,” Polian said. "This is where he wants to be. He literally knows the building and has been there as a player. He will bond with the players and put together a great staff. There is a still a lot of building to do with this team, but he will work great with (general manager) Scott Fitterer.”

Polian added that Reich is low key but detail-oriented.

“He's inspirational when he needs to be,” Polian said. “And he's very rationale and honest and straightforward with his players.”

Panthers hire Frank Reich over Steve Wilks as head coach (msn.com)

I would not call his record average but okay. We just may be in the same place in 3 years sure, but his record says there's a good chance we won't be looking for another coach that soon.  It is what it is.

I have asked a lot of fans to name 2 players from the colts over the past few years. Silence. No QBs. No household names. 

Darius Leonard, Jonathan Taylor, Deforest Buckner, not to mention the hundreds of posts mentioning luck, Rivers, brisset, and Matt Ryan. But K

Meh, not household names. The ones that are household names are washed up. Lack of talent but no excuses Ike that here.

Taylor is arguably the best RB in the NFL when healthy and I’m not the only one saying that. I left Quentin Nelson off the original list because you clearly don’t know ball, but the colts oline has been pretty publicly praised over Reichs tenure in Indy.

    • Honestly, I view the rest of this season like every game is a division game - meaning you can throw the records out.  Throw the perceived favorites out.  Every week, we have to show up and punch them in their mouth.  We’re gonna have to gut it out.  We can’t go into games against well coached teams and think, “well, the Rams already got that one, McVay is just too good of a coach and they’re too talented.”  “Can’t beat the Niners.  Shanahan is one of the best and they just play everyone so tough, even with injuries.”  We have to go into each game feeling like everyone counted us out and we have to show them why they’re wrong.  And speaking of the Niners - that’s the exact blueprint we need to be looking at - for the last, it seems like at least 5 years, they have been decimated with injuries.  And they still contend to win their division and make a run in the playoffs every year.  Even while starting a plethora of QBs.  Even with their best defensive players being out for the bulk of seasons…  their DNA doesn’t change.  They compete.  Their standard is winning and nothing less, so even if you’re the 3rd stringer forced into action, either show up and play to that level or find another team.  This should be our approach and I think the Saints game was an important wake up call… I occasionally listen to whatever ESPN show is on sports radio in the mornings with Chris Camry and I believe it was after we beat the Packers, they asked him about us and he said, “they’re a young team learning how to win.”  And that is about as accurate or a description as you can get.  It explains the hiccups and the struggles.  But it also explains why it looks so good when we put it all together.  What we need now is our guys to have that light bulb come on as a collective and never look back.  I hope last week was the start of that and it continues tonight and for the rest of the season..
    • The veterans played better last night and they actually were looking for Kon but Bridges and Sexton went for a combined 2-15 from three. That is so bad.
    • https://www.talkbasket.net/206848-lamelo-ball-frustrated-by-hornets-struggles-amid-durability-concerns "Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball is reportedly frustrated by the team’s lack of forward progress, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer." Apparently in his mind being perpetually injured and playing less than Gordon Hayward while on a supermax contract has no effect on the forward progress of the franchise.
