Fourteen million.
Wonder if Irsay will write another letter to fans explaining this brilliant maneuver?
Looks like the whole organization is rolling the dice this year. I hope it works.
Here we go again. Fire the GM already.
+1
The owner is the problem. It ain’t ever gonna change until he does.
Joe B – Irsay doesn’t decide about the roster at all. His only responsibility here is to decide whether to change the GM or HC
Since the Irsay family acquired the Colts, the franchise record is 410-420-2.
That includes the Peyton Manning and Bill Polian era, the first season in which Manning was learning on the job (3-13) and the last in which Manning was hurt and didn’t play (2-14). During that time, and including those two bad years in the comparison, the franchise went 143-81.
No Bill Polian and no Peyton Manning, the record is 267-339-2. 44% winning percentage. On average, in a 17 game season, that comes out to an 8-9 team … their record this past season.
Put simply, the Manning/Polian era was an aberration, not the norm. The norm in the Irsay era is a mediocre football team.
Rinse & repeat…….same ole 8-9 or 9-8 season record and either barely make/miss the playoffs. Nothing like mediocrity to keep those season ticket holders swallowing the vision hook, line & sinker. Couldn’t take it anymore and gave up my season tickets a few years ago and have thoroughly enjoyed my fall Sundays ever since.
Lost cause once again. What a joke of a team. They were a joke before Peyton and they’re a joke now, well after Peyton. But the Dolts got a new playhouse out of the never-ending restaurant tax…..oh yeh, that sunset tax the City duped us on after the Hoosier Dome was paid for. When will Irsay quit his boozing and shooting and foot the bills??? Or, he should just sell the team to Indianapolis……like Green Bay. Go Packers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At least I own Packers stock proudly.
He’s an upgrade over Richardson
Sam Darnold would have been my choice and use Richardson as trade bait. The Colts gave Richardson the same money with no results.
