Re: Irsay showing his true colors
LOL. Scouting Manning since High School? So I guess they were the only ones that knew about him? They really unearthed a diamond there, right from obscurity.
The fact is everybody in the NFL knew who Manning was from high school. And every team in the NFL would have taken him #1 that year if they'd been LUCKY enough to have the #1 pick. This wasn't some scouting and development job; they had the #1 pick the year Manning came out so they took him, just like everybody else would have. It's called luck. They stunk before Manning and they'll stink after Manning.
And firing everybody in the building, a week before you host the Superbowl, sure isn't going to speed the recovery process up.
They were an awful team this year. They'll be worse next year. Even if Luck is the second coming of Manning, which is highly unlikely, they're still going to have to rebuild that team around him. It's going to take a few years before they're respectable even. I wonder if we'll be hearing about what a great owner Jimmy is when they win 14 games in half a decade and they're being blacked out.
