Frank Reich's latest comeback gives Colts great expectations

INDIANAPOLIS -- Last year, the question was whether Frank Reich could be a successful NFL head coach. This year, it's about whether he can lead the Indianapolis Colts another step forward.

Twelve months ago, nobody knew what to expect from Reich, a former offensive coordinator in Philadelphia who didn't call plays and wasn't originally even a top-five candidate during the hiring process by the Colts. He didn't get in the pool of candidates until Josh McDaniels pulled off a last-minute switch to return to New England on Feb. 6, 2018.

Five days later, Reich was hired and showed he was the right choice -- and maybe even the better choice -- to lead the rebuilding Colts.
