No coach will succeed under those circumstances and will eventually fail. If Reich had Luck I think we would have been looking at a long string of success.

I have no qualms w/ the Reich hire or Bradley. My comments were solely towards the McDickface debacle. I'm not saying Ballard should have known he was going to bail on us, but Ballard should have been able to pick up what a total piece of shit McDickface is during the interviewing process. The fact that he didn't (or even worse that he did but decided to hire him anyway) should throw up a flag that Ballard isn't the best judge of character.

Anyway, I'm happy with Streichen. IMO it's a really good hire. Admittedly I'm a bit surprised he considered coming to the Colts after Sirianni got all butt hurt about Frank being fired, but glad he did.
