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.

    • Well, as far as backups go, Kyle Allen is actually a decent one.  Better at this point than Dalton probably. That being said, Hooker apparently had an atrocious game against the Texans.  
    • i wouldn't say that yet. I also wouldn't say he's done anything that makes me think he's particularly good. i think that's about right for compensation both ways for thielen considering the state of the vikings and Panthers.  The weirdest thing is that technically the panthers should be adding veteran salary cap right now; they have a high cost first overall qb on a rookie contract; that's the best advantage in the NFL in this day and age. It hasn't worked out because, well, the qb they drafted isn't good and they've ignored other parts of the team to try to bolster him.  so what's morgan really supposed to do? Are they tanking with a rookie qb in year three that the owner probably personally wanted drafted? Are they actually trying to win games this year with 80 career catches between their top three receivers? The defense is probably going to be terrible. What kind of jump are people actually expecting from Coker, Bryce, XL, and performance from a rookie to overcome that? It's not realistic.  At the end of the day I don't think Thielen wanted to end his career here and I don't blame him. Minnesota is going to compete this year and Carolina isn't. I also think this is to toss Bryce to the wolves and be done with him one way or another. There's no way this works. This is not a move you make if you're trying to win football games. 
    • If he helps them win a super bowl the individual award is irrelevant.
