    Grigson deserves to be fired as well

    He isn't actually fired, they just don't plan on offering him a new contract after the season.

    They should have just announced Arians was staying and how much they appreciated Pagano's contribution to the franchise.

    It would have been courageous, not a PR disaster.

    It would not have been courageous and it would have been a PR disaster, not to mention there is a very high probability Arians would have turned down the job under those circumstances.

    Flak? Yes, but it would not have been a "PR disaster". You really have no idea what Arians would have done.

    Their blunder was making the easy decision, not the courageous one.

    That wasn't their only mistake. The Colts organization is a stinky mess that needs a housecleaning. I like that as a Texans fan but hate it for Andrew Luck.

    Of course, a thread started by tinman ends up 100%, unequivocally incorrect.
