Caldwell's Message In Gameplan: We Are Going To Win The Super Bowl

Jim Caldwell has promised fans a super bowl victory according to the folks at 18to88.com. Caldwell decided to pull Peyton Manning and some other key Colts when the Colts had a five point lead over the Jets.



Jim Caldwell is a brave man. He just promised Colts fans everywhere that the 2009 Colts are going to win the Super Bowl. And woe unto him if he doesn't fulfill that promise. Unfair on our part? Yes. Caldwell was just doing what he thought was best for his team. Unwise on his part? Yes, I think it was terribly unwise.

What we saw today at Lucas Oil Stadium was political suicide. Fans aren't fair. Fans aren't rational. Fans don't care if you start your head coaching career 14-0. In Indianapolis that generates less goodwill than you might think... especially when you willfully throw away a chance at a perfect 19-0 season.

Good stuff. This is a team to watch come January.
