Colts Head Coaching Superlatives: Best Minds, Best Fits, and More
Indianapolis Colts General Manager Chris Ballard said that the team would cast a wide net in their search for a head coach this offseason. He has certainly kept his promise so far, as the team has interviewed/is set to interview 13 candidates for the job (so far).
Here is a list of the qualified candidates that the team has either already talked to or is planning to talk to next week:
- Ben Johnson, Offensive Coordinator of the Detroit Lions (withdrew name)
- Aaron Glenn, Defensive Coordinator of the Detroit Lions
- Shane Steichen, Offensive Coordinator of the Philadelphia Eagles
- Eric Bienemy, Offensive Coordinator of the Kansas City Chiefs
- Bubba Ventrone, Special Teams Coach of the Indianapolis Colts
- Raheem Morris, Defensive Coordinator of the Los Angeles Rams
- Ejiro Evero, Defensive Coordinator of the Denver Broncos
- Rich Bisaccia, Special Teams Coach of the Green Bay Packers
- Brian Callahan, Offensive Coordinator of the Cincinnati Bengals
- Dan Quinn, Defensive Coordinator of the Dallas Cowboys
- Mike Kafka, Offensive Coordinator of the New York Giants
- Wink Martindale, Defensive Coordinator of the New York Giants
- DeMeco Ryans, Defensive Coordinator of the San Francisco 49ers
Even with Ben Johnson removing his name from consideration, the Colts have 12 quality candidates out of the 13 remaining coaches for the job. With this long list that is still growing, where is the strong point in each candidate?
Today, I dive into some superlatives in this group in an attempt to separate this vast list.
