Just heard on 93.7 The Fan. Frank has been fired in Indy.
Irsay does not mess around that’s for sure.
 
Tomlin believes our offense is fine.
 
maybe Irsay would be keen to cough up a 7th round pick for Tomlin?
 
Bring him in as QB coach then make the easy transition to him in the offseason. Of course Reich could just stay home and get paid through the 2026 season.
 
He would look good in black and gold. Wasn’t used properly in Indianapolis.
 
Interesting Frank Reich factoid: while many are familiar with his playoff comeback down 35-3 at halftime against the Oilers, in college Reich came off the bench to lead Maryland, which was down 31-0 at halftime against Bernie Kosar’s Miami Hurricanes, to a 42-40 victory.
 
Irsay is mentally unstable. Hiring Jeff Saturday off ESPN is crazy. Is it a Rooney rule violation? Promoting an interim internally would seem to be an exception but hiring an outside candidate seems like Rooney rule should apply.

Does anybody on the current roster know and respect Jeff Saturday?
 
Jim Irsay it’s well known is a bit of a loose cannon so this move as unorthodox as it is, does not surprise. It’s what he does.

Because it's interim head coach, the rooney rule doesn't apply. They will have to go through the process in the off season to hire a full time head coach
 
A former co-worker of mine sat at the same table as Jeff Saturday at a wedding reception. Said he was a really nice and personable guy.

Saturday has head coaching experience at the high school level. Indy is clearly trying to tank and get one of the top QBs. The Steelers need to stay ahead of them and then hopefully get a nice package of picks in a trade.
