"You're right to be frustrated with how the latter part of our season went,"
"I'm pissed. We are all pissed."
"I want our fans to know I hear them ... It's not good enough. It's not to the standard ... [The players] played their asses off this year, but at the end of the day, our fans, we understand and we want to validate that."
Colts owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon kept coach Shane Steichen and general manager Chris Ballard in place despite a seven-game finish that dropped the team to 8-9. The team began 8-2 but suffered a historic collapse exacerbated by crippling injuries, including quarterback Daniel Jones' season-ending ruptured Achilles. Indianapolis became the first NFL team to finish with a losing record after reaching six games over .500. Irsay-Gordon acknowledged fan frustration and confirmed expectations for urgent, significant improvement while stopping short of issuing an immediate ultimatum to the front office and coaching staff.
