Colts Coaching Changes?

News out this morning is the Colts are in for another shake-up in their coaching staff. Offensive line coach Howard Mudd has informed the Colts he is planning to retire immediately because of the pension-plan changes, according to team and league sources. Mr Mudd has been with the Colts for 12 years, and is 67 years old. The reason for his possible stepping down is because of the changes made by the owners this past March concerning the pension program for non-players.

Payton Manning has been there 11 years and has known no other NFL offensive line except that one under Moore/Mudd team. Tom Moore, 70 also has been the Colts offensive coordinator for 12 years also. Moore was able to reached for any comments, as to his plans of either staying or retiring .

If all this takes place and with Colts under a new coach already, it should be interesting to see how if any this will effect the high-firing Colts offense.
