Your guy is gone, everyone...I was just starting to like Pep. :)

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,605]

Pep needed to go. A change will be good. Any change. Except dumping Luck.

[Dalton26 16,892]

About damn time.

Pep was only part of the problem. Grigson made everyone's job a lot harder by making (mostly) stupid moves.

Pep was a Grigson move. What is his infatuation with Stanford?

Idk apparently he thinks Stanford has the best athletes or something. I hope he's the next one to get fired!

The pep move came about 2 years to late. Looking forward to the future with out him in it

[Josh 12,684]

Good riddance Pep.  Clearly his gameplans were terrible.  We started out most games down a bunch because of it (also because of Luck's turnovers).  Then when we scrap the gameplan, we do better.  This was a no brainer move.

 

Next move...fire Grigson!

Gregg Doyel blowing up Grigson.  Wow, he has done things to piss me off, but the dude has balls.  He doesn't write to make friends.

I read that too. Safe to say Doyle isn't getting a Christmas card from Grigson.

Love it. Grigson deserves every bit of this. 

[Josh 12,684]

Clearly I've been harder on Luck than you guys.  So I'm curious...how long is his leash?  Do you play him out the entire year regardless?  Or ever sit him if he continues his multiple interception games?

Sit him and let him heal. Peyton would be in a wheelchair with this O-line.

I can buy into this. If his horrendous play is due to injury, sit him til he's right. Something has to be done

[Andrew_114 105]

I completely disagree with him playing if he isn't 100% or close to it. I would rather he sit and us get a good draft pick then him continue playing and getting hurt more

I think the problem with that perception is almost every player is hurt to some degree at this point. Unless you are a punter or kicker you have injuries.

Agreed, but if the injury is creating losses, do you keep playing him?

I think a lot depends on the backups ability to win games.

Matty 40 oz hasselback has looked pretty good in the 2 games he played.

This is true. But when you are talking about a franchise quarterback do you risk playing and him getting hurt even more? There's not way Colts make/win the super bowl unless we start playing much better. Too many teams are much better right now. We need a good draft pick if we future success. Lucks first year here was great but in the long run it may have hurt us and stopped the rebuild through the draft too soon
