The Facts: While the Colts were introducing their new General Manager on Monday afternoon, they confirmed that Chris Ballard won't be hiring a new head coach for the 2017 season. The Colts will be holding onto Chuck Pagano for a sixth season.

Diehards Line: Ballard said that he and Pagano are going to work together “to make decisions that are best” for the team and that it was never a question for him about the partnership. “There were no other options. Chuck Pagano is a good football coach in the National Football League,” Ballard said. “We need to keep our eye on how hard it is to win in this league and he’s won 49 games in this league. ...” Ballard didn’t delve into too much detail about the moves he’d like to make to add more wins to Pagano’s total. He stuck to broader strokes about being good up front on both sides of the ball, although those match up well with the biggest needs on the Indianapolis roster.
