I feel like it is. Further, I don't think one conference championship in 13 years is enough to keep a coach with the talent Reid has had. -EK

The Polians are out in Indy. No word yet on Caldwell, but it would be one heck of a shocker if he stayed.

This comparison is absurd.

EK, in case you didn't notice, Sparano was fired with 3 games remaining.  Therefore, the end to SPARANO'S season was not 5-3.

And furthermore, Philly's 5-3 end came after a 3-5 run, not a 0-7 run.  So no, it's not even remotely comparable.

Thank you Spider for pointing out the obvious.

Pretty much what I thought initially, but reactions from Indy fans and media have changed my mind. Bill Polian's health is apparently a significant issue and he was being very hands off as President. The Polian running the show these past 2-3 years was apparently Chris (Bill's son), who appears to be pretty much universally hated in Indy by players, coaches, scouts, and the media.

The belief is that Bill is probably going to call it quits and even if he didn't, it would be a package deal with Chris.

And considering the general level of young talent on the team, I'd rather look elsewhere if Ireland were to be replaced.

In other coaching news around the league, the Bills fired their DC and replaced him with their linebackers coach. Aka Dave Wannstedt.

With they way their "talent" performed without Manning? I'd rather not.

They keep Norv at 8-8, but when Marty went 14-2 they fired him? How's that work? -EK
