Cutting to the head of the NFL coaching line without any college or pro coaching experience put Jeff Saturday in the crosshairs of criticism and dismay across the league.
The association said the turf at Lucas Oil Stadium and five other venues results in “statistically higher in-game injury rates” involving non-contact and lower-extremity injuries. The NFL disputed the NFLPA’s conclusions.
Irsay’s antics suggest an owner hellbent on tanking for the highest possible draft pick next spring, and landing as many verbal haymakers as possible to the coaching and analytics community in the process.
Critics immediately went after Irsay for hiring an inexperienced former player. The hiring also didn’t sit well with the Fritz Pollard Alliance, which fights for equity and inclusion in pro football.
Saturday’s only coaching experience was a four-year stint as head coach at a Georgia high school. He’s served most recently as a team consultant and ESPN commentator.

For the Colts, it’s the same old story. Another new season, another new quarterback. But they’re hoping Ryan is the guy to end their quarterback carrousel by playing at a championship level.
It should be noted that one week in September can’t define a team (although 14 of the past 18 Super Bowl champions started 1-0, including the 2006 Colts).
Music fans have the rare chance to catch John Mellencamp, Buddy Guy, John Hiatt and Ann Wilson perform for free in Indianapolis.
He played 17 seasons, starting with the Baltimore Colts in 1980 and ending with the Dallas Cowboys in 1996.
In a tweet Sunday, Irsay confirmed he has acquired the belt for his collection of rock music, American history and pop culture memorabilia, which is currently touring the country.
Siragusa, known as “Goose,” had a 12-year NFL playing career with the Indianapolis Colts and Baltimore Ravens. Siragusa was popular with fans because of his fun-loving attitude, which helped him transition quickly to broadcasting after his playing career.
