Because D Watson getting a job is better 😂
The saltiness is because nobody wants to admit it’s who you know and who you have relationships with. Coaches also don’t like making it sound like you don’t have to do 22 years of grunt work to get an opportunity and it’s too complex without experience. If you played with Payton and had Dungy coaching you and you were a starting center that played 14 years in the NFL you have experience…I understand it’s unconventional and it makes coaches who feel they paid their dues salty, but life isnt fare, and sometimes the most qualified don’t get the job, or they do and they suck. This owner wanted to hire Jeff and Jeff wanted to coach, his results will determine the outcome. If they can finish 500 or 1 game under I think it’s a success.
Maybe this is the future??? I’ve seen many HCs with experience flame out.. in fact, almost every nfl HC that’s been fired has had many years coaching experience.. (I’m not stating all, but most…)
I agree that no one skin color should ever hold them back from opportunity but if you’re not willing to put in the work get the coffee drop place do all the things you need to do to get to a head coaching job then quite frankly you don’t deserve it! Head coaches are exactly in the positions they are in because they were willing to go through the years of hard work that it took to get there at different levels of competition
Joe Thomas?? Are you serious…of all people. Zero broadcasting experience but had no problem jumping ahead of all those real broadcasters who busted ass in school and in crappy small markets. This is ridiculous…Joe Thomas….not particularly articulate and looks like a super max inmate gets a gig over so many more deserving people. And nobody would call you on it if you just kept your mouth shut and wished a fellow NFL warrior all the best in his new job.
White guy gets a job and people lose their mind, bunch of twats
Joe Thomas is a Clahhn
No, Russell Wilson and Nathaniel Hackett are the worst things the NFL has ever done.
And they got the win
Why would it be okay in the MLB but not in the NFL? People that have a problem are the same people that say "in my day" to start a sentence every conversation.
If jeff was black no one would say a word
Don’t even get me started on the BS Joy Taylor is spitting out. Unreal how the media has just turned this Situation. How can you find anything “bad” about this. This world is horrible.
Rule 1 of sports betting: NEVER put your money on Josh McDaniels
So, its only wrong for someone who has never coached professionally in the nfl.
Then why is it not a big deal in the MLB, or the NBA.. they always hire former players without any experience coaching professionally.. so shut up.
I think any former players who don't like it shouldn't be allowed to coach until they have experience, how will anyone get experience if you don't hire anyone without experience
People want to be so critical but it's still only an interim position even if he does well there will probably be someone else coaching the Colts next season.
Kellen Moore, Bryon Leftwich both come to mind.
Dungy, Caldwell, nuff said.
Joe Thomas is an idiot lmaooo
Joe who? 😂
I would argue people who played football really played know. The positions that make great coach Oline specifically Centers, Safties, Line Backers, and yes Quarterbacks because these are the specific positions that have to not just run plays but make calls. The center has to control the entire Oline and set up the blocking assignment for the play. Great Oline play isn't individual either where Safties, Linebacker and QBs can make things happen based on their individual skills. Oline you must work as a unit all together this is what makes them great coaches. They see the big picture better than most. Now I'm not saying CB, WR, RB, Dline or TE cannot be quality coaches but Oline are guys who get no praise but coaches point fingers at all failures. Think about it an Oline give up 1 sack to a Dlineman 1 time in 60 plays and it is seen as failure being perfect 59 times but 1 time you fail and you will hear about in the film room. They are different and have to be mentally level headed non stop like a QB. I played FB learned how to block from them and they are the Team and never get enough credit.
Hope Saturday can go unbeaten. Coaches would be soo scared. Colts didn't wanna hire a nobody so they hired family. Colts trust Saturday just like ol 18 did
Y’all, let’s douse the emotions and be adults here, cmon. He’s the INTERIM, mainly because he’s a legendary figure head in the franchise and has respect in the locker room, finding a viable coaching candidate in the middle of the season is nearly impossible, plus he’s not just some random guy, HE’S JEFF SATURDAY a hall of famer and a super bowl winner with the franchise alongside Peyton Manning. Did y’all complain when Cadillac Williams was chosen as interim at Auburn when him and Saturday have the exact same coaching resume?
The first thing I thought when I saw Saturday get a job is now there’s even less excuse for a brother to not get one. Especially a coordinator job. Some of these no name “smart” guys are trash or are only as good as their talent (like most coaches) . Time to change the candidate pool.
We have seen numerous coaches rise through the ranks regardless of the color of their skin since the 80s. Well, accept for Asians, because apparently they are considered less than human by other minorities who play or coach in the NFL.
If Joe Thomas had a choice, somebody else gets the colts job but him and everyone in his family dies or Jeff Saturday gets the job
