Colts insider Stephen Holder on what he learned about the next likely Colts coach from the Patriots' locker room. Stephen Holder/IndyStar
INDIANAPOLIS – Four weeks have passed since the bad football mercifully stopped and the coaching search quickly commenced. The Indianapolis Colts fired Chuck Pagano an hour after the season finale on New Year’s Eve; three days later, in Foxboro, Mass., General Manager Chris Ballard was sitting down with his first candidate.
He’ll have to wait one more week before officially naming Josh McDaniels Pagano’s successor.
The Patriots’ offensive coordinator has a work conflict, of course.
