Jeff Saturday is not the answer, but he is not supposed to be

Yesterday was another typical game of the Colts’ 2022-23 season. A day where the defense had a great game, and did enough for the team to win, but the offense cannot get anything going, while also consistently shooting themselves in the foot, and the result is a yet another loss. The Colts fired Frank Reich after a humilliating 26-3 loss to the New England Patriots, putting them at 3-5-1 after many fans expected a deep playoff run this season, and brought in former All-Pro center (and also commentator) Jeff Saturday as the interim head coach. Much of the NFL landscape was outraged by the move, and there were some outlandish takes thrown around, but I agree with the point they were making: there were much better qualified options already in the coaching staff, including former HCs John Fox and Gus Bradley.
