The move to fire Reich surprised many people both inside and outside the organization, but the announcement of his replacement was a true gasper across the NFL.

What does the firing of Reich mean for the Colts moving forward? Was it smart to do it at midseason? It appears that there is very little progress that can be made between now and the end of the season. With Reich and Marcus Brady gone, who will call the plays?

How will this whole thing work, as Saturday has no pro or college coaching experience? Is this a PR move to put a pretty mask on a tank job?
