121 Bob Kravitz: As Colts rally around Chuck Pagano, something special happening in Indy Bob Kravitz Indianapolis Star November 5, 2012

He looked thin but not frail, the trademark Chuck Pagano goatee gone along with most of his hair. But standing in the middle of the Colts locker room -- both pregame and postgame -- Pagano's eyes shone brightly. He is winning his fight. His football team, the Indianapolis Colts, had just won its fight, beating the Miami Dolphins 23-20.

They are fighting together.

And amazing, inspiring things are happening.

"As I mentioned before the game, you guys are living a vision, not circumstances," Pagano told the team after the game. "Because you know where they (the media) had us in the beginning, every last one of them, but you refused to live in circumstances. And you decided consciously as a team, as a family, to living a vision. And that's why you bring things home the way you brought it home today. That's why you're champions, and well on your way.

"I've got circumstances. I understand it. You understand it. It's already beat."

The locker room sounded with joyous applause.

"My vision, I'm living to see two more daughters get married, dance at their weddings and hoist the Lombardi Trophy several times."

Something special is happening here in Indianapolis, the kind of thing they commit to celluloid. A nowhere team is going somewhere, maybe even to the playoffs, a team nobody, myself included, believed had any more than five or six wins in it. But the thing that gives it national resonance and emotional cachet is the fact these Colts are doing it for their coach, and if that sounds hokey, well, that's too bad, because it's true.

This is not a team with playoff talent, not with so many rookies and first-year Colts. But it's becoming a team with playoff heart and spirit and vision, a group of men playing with a higher sense of purpose.

"To see where this is at right now is so incredibly miraculous," team owner said.

"I'm telling you, if (General Manager) Ryan (Grigson) isn't Executive of the Year already, if you look at having no cap room and where this team was ... Then we lose our coach, and unlike New Orleans, we didn't have months to prepare for something like that. And then all the injuries on top of that.

"And then what Andrew (Luck) has done. If anybody said the word 'rookie' next to that kid, you'd put him in a mental asylum. He looks like he's been in the league for six years."

It's hard to imagine at the halfway point in this cherished season: The Colts are 5-3 and have a very good chance to make the playoffs. Seriously, make the playoffs. Who saw that coming? Nobody saw that coming. Even the true-blue dreamers lacked the audacity to believe the Colts could be a .500 team or better and make a run at the postseason.

But they are writing the best, most unlikely story in all of professional football, a team completely rebuilt, playing for their head coach, playing for each other, doing things we thought were unimaginable.

"For me, (the goal) is to make sure we make the playoffs because he's got a great chance to be back at the end of December," interim coach Bruce Arians said. "We need to make sure we extend this season so he can be back on the sidelines with us, healthy. That's our goal."

Something special is building here. And it's building around Luck, who Arians accurately said played a "Pro Bowl caliber" game. It was downright Peyton-esque. Didn't matter if it was third-and-3 or third-and-15; the Colts converted, time and time and time again. Luck was brilliant in the pocket, moving around, buying time like a New Age Ben Roethlisberger, establishing himself -- not RGIII, not anybody else -- as the front-runner to win Rookie of the Year.

The numbers tell the story: The Colts were 13-of-19 on third-down conversions against the best third-down defense in the league, and Luck broke the rookie record for most passing yards (433).

It wasn't a surprise to everybody that Pagano was coming Sunday, at least those who read Irsay's tweets. But it was a shock to most of the players when the head coach showed up shortly before Sunday's game and spoke from his heart about the journey both him and this team have undertaken.

"Before the game, I'm running back to the training room, and this guy hit me in the chest real hard," safety Antoine Bethea said. "I'm like, 'What the hell?' I didn't see who it was up close and didn't recognize him, so I didn't know it was him. Then I came out later and there he was. I guess I got the Chuck in the chest."

Said Jerraud Powers: "When he showed up, the whole locker room exploded. You would have thought he would be on the sidelines today. That might be the first time I've ever been touched before a game. It was touching and it was inspiring. We figure, if we can have half the heart he's shown, we can do anything."

Now Pagano heads back for his second tough round with chemotherapy. "He's fighting Ali, Tyson and Foreman," Irsay said. "He's going into the ring with no gloves. It's going to be tough, but I know he'll overcome."

Now the Colts head to Jacksonville for a Thursday night game that will go a long way toward establishing them as a true playoff contender.

You've got to love both their chances.

Colts GM Ryan Grigson uncovers gem north of the border with Jerrell Freeman Indianapolis Star Mike Chappell November 4, 2012

Ryan Grigson's first signing as Indianapolis Colts general manager tugged at his heartstrings.

He looked north of the border. He looked to the League. He looked to linebacker Jerrell Freeman.

Consider it completing a circle. Grigson's first job as a pro scout was with Saskatchewan in 1998.

"One summer," Grigson said wistfully.

All that's missing is a glossy reminder of that first hire.

When Freeman arrived at the team's Northwestside complex in mid-January to sign his three-year, $1.46 million contract, Grigson wanted to commemorate the occasion with a photo of him shaking hands with Freeman. It would have been similar to an entrepreneur framing the first dollar he made and hanging it on the wall.

Never happened. For whatever reason, the photo op was missed and Grigson isn't interested in setting up another and passing it off as the original.

Instead of glancing at a photo to remind him of his first move as Colts GM, Grigson can point to the flesh-and-blood version. Freeman will start his eighth game at Will (weakside) linebacker this afternoon when the Miami Dolphins visit Lucas Oil Stadium. He leads the defense and ranks fourth in the NFL with 69 tackles.

Freeman first appeared on Grigson's radar in December when Grigson still was turning over rocks as the Philadelphia Eagles' director of player personnel. He graded the top players, those in the United Football League. He cast an eye at the CFL.

As it turned out, the Eagles were stocked at Will linebacker, Freeman's projected NFL position. When Grigson was named the Colts' GM in January, he inherited an aging, pricey roster he soon would blow up.

"I had a laundry list of players we couldn't keep," he said. "I knew I could get one guy who could run and hit. I knew (Freeman) was a guy who could make it because he could run and I knew he could be good on (special) teams.

"I knew he would be a good back-end roster guy while he developed in this defense at Will.''

Freeman was a 6-0, 234-pounder who had developed into an all-around linebacker for the Roughriders. In 2011, he led the CFL with 105 tackles and added six sacks and three interceptions.

He spent three seasons with Saskatchewan, pursuing his dream.

"I just wanted to extend my football career, regardless where it was," Freeman said.

The CFL represented a consolation prize. Freeman signed with the Tennessee Titans as an undrafted rookie out of Division III Mary Hardin-Baylor in 2008, but failed to make the final cut.

"Canada was a good experience for me," he said. "It just so happened I was able to do pretty good and was able to come back (to the NFL)."

While the Colts and Dolphins have significant NFL business to debate today, the event offers an opportunity for a reunion of former CFL standouts.

Other CFL products include Colts linebacker Justin Hickman, who was with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats from 2009-11, and Miami defensive end (B.C. Lions, 2007-08) and return specialist (Hamilton, 2010-11).

Thigpen is a former Indiana University standout. Wake is one of the CFL's most prized exports.

Since joining the Dolphins in 2009, he's tied for fifth in the league with 35 1/2 sacks. The Colts' pass-rush tandem of Robert Mathis and Dwight Freeney has 35 and 33, respectively. Wake earned a berth on the strength of 14 sacks.

Wake's return to the NFL was more remarkable than Freeman's. The Penn State product signed with the New York Giants on May 6, 2005, but released six weeks later. He worked as a mortgage broker in 2006 before resuming his football career with the B.C. Lions.

His persistence has paid off. Wake's original four-year contract involved league-minimum base salaries and paid him $1.23 million in the first three years. In May, the Dolphins signed him to a four-year, $49 million extension that included $20 million in guarantees.

It would be foolish to predict a similar meteoric rise for Freeman. But he's already made more of an impact in his first season than Wake, who started one game, appeared in 14 and had as many tackles on special teams (11) as on defense.

Grigson beams every time Freeman's name is mentioned even though he jokes he occasionally makes it a point to keep Freeman grounded.

"I'm so happy for him," he said. "He comes from a hard-working family. He knows the value of hard work. He's got a smile on his face every day when I give him some ribbing.

"He runs like the wind. He was a guy I always thought could play."

Ryan Grigson is the architect behind Colts’ early success, just don’t ask him to take any credit Indianapolis Star Bob Kravitz November 1, 2012

It’s not that Ryan Grigson doesn’t want to do this interview; he’s fine with it, and very obliging, particularly now that he’s had four cups of coffee. It’s just that the Colts have been showered with so many compliments lately — local compliments and national compliments — he’s deathly afraid that all these kind words will dull the Colts’ new-found edge.

“The other day, it hit me all at once; every morning I read the press clippings and I’m thinking, ‘Oh boy,’” Grigson said, referring to the positive reviews the Colts have been receiving lately, including a Sports Illustrated note that picked Indy to reach the playoffs. “You want them to be focused enough to keep all the background noise out, but with a young team, you don’t know.”

“It’s funny, just (Wednesday) I went to BA’s (Bruce Arians’) office, ready to tell him my concerns, and before I could even say anything, he said to me, ‘I’ve already addressed that with the team. I’ve already told them, don’t read or believe the press clippings.’

“But we got over the one hump without our first road win, now we’ll learn how we handle success.’’

No matter how the rest of this season goes, it can be safely said Jim Irsay found a solid architect in Grigson. That’s not to say he’ll always have the Midas touch; I saw go cold in the drafting department, and Bill Polian’s last few drafts weren’t as good as we had become accustomed. But for now, one season, building from the foundation up, Grigson gets high grades, and would earn Early-Season Executive of the Year if there was such a thing.

Make no mistake: This is a glorified expansion team. Check out the current 53-man roster. Thirty-four of the 53 guys are either rookies or first-year Colts. That’s an unheard-of number for an established team, especially one that’s been a consistent Super Bowl contender most of the last 14 years.

When the Colts lined up against Tennessee last Sunday, eight of 11 offensive starters were rookies or first-year Colts; three of 11 on defense.

But the Colts, starting over essentially, are 4-3 and playing an important game Sunday against the 4-3 Miami Dolphins at Lucas Oil. This is a team some national writers believed would win one or two games. This is a team I thought would win five games, maybe six. Overachievement, anybody?

“My old boss (Eagles GM Howie Roseman) used to tell me, ‘You should be an expansion team GM,’” Grigson said. “I have such an affection for the back end of the roster guys, the practice squad, development guys, because that’s where the real scouting comes into play.”

That’s where my staff has done such a great job. I told them from Day 1, don’t give me fancy spreadsheets and flow charts and window dressing BS, find me players, and I don’t care where they come from.”

Grigson and and their staff has had success at five levels:

The Draft

Of course, you’re supposed to have success in the Draft when you’re picking first or second in every round; the real challenge comes later when Grigson, like Bill Polian before him, starts picking in the middle and late portions of each round.

But at first glance, this appears to be one of the Colts’ best drafts in a very long time.

Watch out next for nose tackle Josh Chapman, who is coming off knee surgery and should be ready to play again next week or two weeks from now.

“(Defensive coordinator) Greg (Manusky) just came back to my office and showed me a play where Chapman took on a 340-pound guard on the practice squad and just tossed him like he wasn’t there,’’ Grigson said. “He’s got rare power. And he’s an angry man. He relishes the dirtiness and nastiness of playing the position.’’

Free agency

This was a heck of a trick, given the fact the Colts have $37 million in dead money from previous contracts. But Grigson has been able to assemble some pieces, and specifically rebuild the offensive line, with folks like Mike McGlynn and Samson Satele.

“We’ve said from the beginning, we want guys with a little bit of an edge,” Grigson said. “Like McGlynn. He’s one of those guys, I knew he had just enough skills to be a starter but what I liked was the nasty he brought to the offensive line. If you’re a tone-setter, a tempo-setter, playing through the whistle and finishing guys, that’s what we want. You watch, when we score, he’s always the first O- lineman down the field to slap a guy on the back of the helmet or pick him up. He plays with a zeal. He’s one of those guys who shames other guys into playing harder.”

The bigger trick was finding guys in other leagues and off the streets, specifically former Canadian League linebacker Jerrell Freeman. Grigson can barely contain himself talking about Freeman. The kid has been nothing short of a revelation.

Next year, and in the years to come, Grigson will have cash to spend on free agents. His philosophy there? If there’s a guy worth the cash, he’s going to make a play. He doesn’t believe it’s an either/or proposition, building through the draft or building with free agency. It’s a little bit of both, at least when the money is right.

Trades

He got right tackle Winston Justice for a song. He got Cassius Vaughn, currently the starter at cornerback in place of Vontae Davis, for next to nothing. The only trade that looks questionable, at least at this point, is the one for Davis. When he’s played, he’s played well, but some fluke injuries have kept him out of the lineup.

So the jury is still out there.

Retaining the right players

After the Bloody Friday when Grigson parted ways with so many veterans --- Dallas Clark, Gary Brackett, Joseph Addai, and others --- it was thought the Colts would be even worse than their previous 2-14 record.

But Grigson kept the right guys. He kept Robert Mathis, who is the heart and soul of the defense. He kept Dwight Freeney, who figures to be more productive now that Mathis is back in the lineup. And he brought back Reggie Wayne, merely the top receiver in the league right now, rather than over-pay Pierre Garcon.

Massaging the roster on the run

The Colts have been decimated along the offensive and defensive lines early this season, but Grigson and his staff have found guys who have stepped in and been very productive. Who is Lawrence Guy? Martin Tevaseu? Antonio Dixon?

Just don’t ask Grigson if he’s surprised it’s come together this quickly.

He was asked by ESPN.com’s Paul Kuharsky the other day and answered around the question. I asked it and he did the same thing.

“It’s like I tell the guys, ‘In this league, you can’t stop and smell the roses,’” Grigson said. “We’ve won four games. It’s not like we’ve done anything yet. It’s not like we’re sitting here with double-digit wins. The minute you stop and smell the roses, you take your eyes off the ball.”

They’ve done nothing, true, but they’ve done something, too. They’ve made midseason games relevant. It’s a good start for a promising young franchise on the rebuild. As long as they don’t read the press clippings.

Colts DT Josh Chapman realizes gain through pain Indianapolis Star Phil Richards November 1, 2012

Josh Chapman earned honorable mention All-America recognition and second-team All- honors while playing nose tackle for Alabama last season. Of course it might have been better.

He did it on one leg. Chapman bit his lip, strapped on his brace and watched the trainers wrap him in a mile of tape; he played his final seven games on a torn anterior cruciate ligament and torn meniscus in his left knee.

"It had pain to it, a lot of pain," Chapman explained in his self-unpretentious manner, "but at the same time, I was always taught pain was temporary."

Chapman's decision to postpone reconstructive surgery until January and soldier on helped the Crimson Tide win the national championship. It also impaired his performance, knocked him out of the Senior Bowl and the NFL Combine and sent him into the 2012 draft as damaged, or at least suspect, goods.

That's why the Indianapolis Colts don't feel they so much picked him as stole him with the first selection of the fifth round.

"He's the one holding the trophy in all those pictures," Colts general manager Ryan Grigson said. "That shows you what they thought of him at Alabama.

"He was a warrior."

The warrior is back on the prowl. After spending all of training camp and the first seven weeks of the season on the reserve/non- football injury list, Chapman began practicing last week. The Colts have until Nov. 12 to add him to the 53-man active roster or he misses the remainder of the year.

It's a weighty decision on a hefty player. The Colts hold Chapman (6-0, 316) in highest regard.

"We've got a lot invested, he's going to be a heck of a player, and I'd hate to put him out there if he's not ready," Colts interim coach Bruce Arians said.

Low man wins

Grigson isn't being insensitive when he describes Chapman as looking "like a cartoon character." It's that Chapman is as wide as he is high. He's all about leverage. Low man wins is his motto. He flashes hands that measure a comfortable 11 1/2inches, thumb tip to little fingertip. He strikes a lineman. He clamps him. He plants his feet. He becomes a bridge abutment.

Chapman is an incredible block of muscle. He bench pressed a you've-got-to-be-kidding-me 600 pounds at Alabama.

Bo Davis, the defensive line coach the first four of Chapman's five years in Tuscaloosa, says there are two kinds of strength: 1. Weight room strength; iron-pumping strength. 2. Natural strength; the kind that is strategically applied to gain advantage and overpower on the football field. Chapman, Davis said, has both.

"I just love lifting weights," Chapman said. "That's just part of me."

Colts teammates are only now getting their first feel.

Defensive end Cory Redding describes Chapman as having "thighs on his arms."

Center Samson Satele lined up across from Chapman for the first time last week.

"Man is a load, man, and he knows how to move," Satele said. "I don't know how he was in college, but he's pretty damn good out here."

Chapman was the throbbing heart of an Alabama unit that led in rushing defense at 72.2 yards a game. Crimson Tide teammates called him "The Boss."

No wonder. With the knee getting progressively more painful last season, he sat out one game "to get my knee back up under me." It was longtime Division II power Georgia Southern.

The Eagles rushed for 302 yards.

Chapman was back in the middle the following Saturday, playing on one leg, shutting down the run. That he was willing to sacrifice himself thusly was no surprise to his teammates. Chapman played the final four games of his junior season with one arm; he deferred surgery on a torn labrum until after the season.

The fact is, he is the most selfless of players at football's most selfless position.

He demands double teams. He revels in triple teams.

"It's the dirtiest, nastiest job, but at the same time, I love doing it," said Chapman, a resident of Hoover, a Birmingham, Ala., suburb. "I'm not a guy who likes tackles. I mean it's fine when I get one, but when you know your 'backers are flying around, making hits, that makes me happy."

You don't play football on a shredded knee unless you love it, and Grigson loves Chapman's attitude. He sees the same ardor in two other Colts rookies, quarterback Andrew Luck and tight end Dwayne Allen.

"Not only are they really productive, tough, talented, talented guys, but they have a selfless attitude and that all comes from love of the game," Grigson said. "They're like beacons to the other rookies to strive to be like.

"Chappy hasn't proven it on the field yet at the pro level but what he did in college is so remarkable and he did it at such a high level."

He's my baby

Josh's father, Joel Rice, worked for the Birmingham parks and recreation department. He ran basketball leagues for inner city kids. He coached them. He mentored them. He inspired them. He played with them.

On Aug. 23, 1995, he went up for a layup and came down not on his feet, but in a heap. He was dead moments later of a heart attack. Joel was 34. Josh was 6.

Joel was 6-6, 240 pounds but he stood even taller in the community. His funeral procession wasn't measured in cars. It was measured in miles. Joel Rice was accorded the deepest show of respect.

"On his father's funeral day, the gangs all over the city, they put down their guns," Joel's brother Victor Rice said. "They all came to his funeral. They all stood together. That's how his father was."

Josh didn't inherit his father's height, just his heft and his good heart.

"Great kid. Great guy to be around," said Davis, now defensive tackles coach at Texas. "I've known of things he's gone out of his way to do for other guys. I loved being around him."

Josh inherited one other thing from his dad: a second father.

Uncle Victor stepped in like a sixth man. Victor had gone off to war with the army during Operation Desert Storm but before he left, he and Joel had made a pact. If anything happened to either of them, the survivor would care for the kids.

Josh lived with his mother, Theresa Chapman, who works in a Birmingham cafeteria. He spent every summer and school break with Victor, who resides in Lexington, Ky.

"I raised him like he was mine," Victor said. "He's my baby."

Chapman sits next to Redding, a 10-year veteran, in the D-line meeting room. He peppers Redding with questions about how to be a pro, how to practice, how to eat, what to watch for on film, what techniques to hone and apply.

Chapman's voice flows soft and slow, honey rich, in the deep tones of the deep south. He has a pervasive patience, an underpinning and overarching faith in himself and his creator, that things are fine and things will be fine.

It serves him well.

A family friend rented a room in Hoover's Winfrey Hotel on April 25, the first night of the NFL draft. Family and closest friends, "my support staff," as Chapman calls them, joined him to celebrate.

The first round passed with no phone call. The room was rented for the another night.

The second and third rounds passed with no phone call.

"It was rough, man. Gosh," uncle Victor said. "Thursday night was OK, but Friday night, man, it was a bummer."

The family huddled. It did what the Chapmans and the Rices do. It prayed.

The room was rented again for Saturday. Finally the Colts called.

Grigson guesses that had Chapman been healthy, had he enjoyed a standout senior season, he might well have gone in the second round. Grigson posits that, given time, Chapman might prove himself the equal of Memphis' Dontari or Louisiana State's , defensive tackles taken by Kansas City and St. Louis with the 11th and 14th overall picks.

Poe got a four-year, $11.3 million contract. Brockers got $9.5 million. Brockers' guaranteed money, $5.4 million, is more than double the value of Chapman's entire four-year deal, $2.315 million.

Chapman shrugs it off.

"I've got a strong faith in God," he said. "I was always told He'd never bring me this far to leave me. I keep faith in God and keep my prayers up and I'm glad I'm part of a great team and a great organization and they run the same defense I love to run.

"Everything else will be taken care of just by me going out and being Josh Chapman."

Low man wins.

Luck, a Step Ahead as a Rookie, Hits Stride With Colts Judy Battista New York Times October 11, 2012

INDIANAPOLIS — It was just a few practices into Andrew Luck’s professional career, during the Indianapolis Colts’ rookie minicamp in the spring, when Clyde Christensen turned on the tiny camera and microphone attached to Luck’s helmet.

Christensen, the Colts’ quarterbacks coach, had gotten his first sense of how quickly Luck absorbed information after the scouting combine, when the team gave him the portion of the playbook that included the five-step passing game. By the time Luck, the top pick in the draft, got off his flight in California on his way back to Stanford University, he reached out to the Colts.

“O.K., good, what’s next?” he said, shocking coaches who thought that was a few weeks’ worth of work.

At the minicamp, the camera Christensen turned on was supposed to enhance his understanding of where his quarterback was looking before throwing a pass. Luck’s camera did not work well. But the microphone provided an aural revelation of how the player one college football official called “a human computer” would process his transition to the N.F.L.

“You give him the play; you’re talking to him; he’s asking questions, feeling out the call,” Christensen said. “He’s walking up to the line of scrimmage, and it’s almost like ‘Rain Man’: he just repeats everything; he’s talking to himself about who had which assignment.

“All of a sudden, he gets into the huddle, and he’s just a different guy. He went from ‘Is that the one?’ to ‘O.K., here it is.’ Like you’re just meeting someone for the first time, but then you introduce them like they are a long-lost friend. He gave a good fake appearance — that huddle wasn’t going to know if he had doubt.”

Luck, when told that his teammates were struck by the command of the huddle he had from the beginning, said with a laugh: “Well, I managed to fool them. I was swimming on a lot of things. That’s part of playing the position, just being able to step into a huddle and confidently say” — and here Luck rattled off an unintelligible play — “without it sounding like Swahili to you, even if you’re not sure. What is it — never in doubt, hardly correct? We’ll take a little of that attitude.”

He will not have to take it much longer. In the first month of his first season, Luck — perhaps the most heralded player to enter the league since the person he succeeded, Peyton Manning — was outplayed by Washington’s Robert Griffin III, who was drafted No. 2. With the benefit of more experienced offensive teammates, Griffin has completed 69.1 percent of his passes, compared with Luck’s 54.2 completion percentage.

But on Sunday, in his fourth game, Luck crafted the first frame of his career highlight film. He led a second-half comeback from an 18-point deficit against Green Bay in the Colts’ first game since Coach Chuck Pagano left the team to receive treatment for leukemia. A dazzling 80-yard drive in the closing minutes included Luck’s sliding away from Clay Matthews to fire a 15-yard strike to Reggie Wayne — one of the few remaining holdovers from the Manning years, whom Luck said he was honored to throw to — on a third- and-12 near midfield.

The enormous banners of Manning that had loomed from the side of Lucas Oil Stadium were removed long ago, in the days just before the Colts selected Luck in April. But inside the building, the win over the Packers was the moment that Luck’s unobtrusive arrival was complete. Luck has purposefully chosen to be low-key in his entrance to the N.F.L., and if a first overall draft pick can fly under the radar, he has managed to do it.

He has filmed a commercial for a soccer video game, but that is about it for high-profile endorsements. That is in part because Luck’s aw-shucks personality does not mesh well with the limelight. But it is also because Luck’s father, Oliver, a former N.F.L. quarterback who is now West Virginia’s athletic director, has encouraged his son to keep his life simple for the first couple of years as a professional, the better to focus his attention on the field. Luck is able to go to dinner with teammates near his downtown Indianapolis home and dine relatively undisturbed.

But the Colts are 2-2 — already equaling their victory total from 2011 — and Griffin’s style of play has been questioned since he sustained a concussion while scrambling in the Redskins’ loss to Atlanta on Sunday. Luck’s performance against the Packers seemed to remind the league this week, as the Colts prepared to play the Jets, why Indianapolis chose to rebuild around him.

Gil Brandt, a former Dallas Cowboys personnel executive who continues to scout college players for NFL.com, said Luck’s second half against Green Bay might be the best performance by a rookie he had ever seen.

None of this is likely to move the needle on Luck’s demeanor. He is famously cerebral and less-famously composed and self- deprecating. Colts center Mike McGlynn described him as “egoless.”

Christensen said Luck wanted to be a normal guy. Luck’s first major piece of new furniture after he signed with Indianapolis was a Ping-Pong table that he claimed was deluxe. Christensen invited Luck to his home to play and asked Luck to give him odds that the coach could beat the quarterback. Luck told Christensen the odds were 8-1. Christensen won, and Luck left dejected.

“Typical N.F.L. quarterback,” Christensen said. “He wanted to bring his own paddle next time.”

But everyone around Luck struggles to think of a moment when he has seemed overwhelmed this year. Oliver Luck said that his son had never been one to cause much drama and that even if he had doubts or concerns, he would probably keep them to himself. Andrew Luck paused for several long beats trying to think about something that surprised him about the N.F.L. before marveling at how big a machine the league is and how many people — from coaches to public relations staff members — work so many hours to keep it moving.

“There haven’t been any major hiccups or a moment when I hit my boiling point yet, or a freakout session about anything,” Luck said. “I don’t know everything. I will probably never know everything about playing this position, moving cities, starting with a new team. Really, it was more just learning the playbook so I didn’t look like a fool out there. Which is not to say I pressed every day: ‘O.K., I have to prove I’m worthy of the No. 1 pick.’ But the good thing about team sports is the pressure your teammates, maybe inadvertently, put on you.”

Jim Harbaugh, his former coach at Stanford and now the coach of the San Francisco 49ers, advised Luck on how to make the transition to the N.F.L. and what role to take as a rookie quarterback in the locker room. But Luck now leans most heavily on Christensen and the bits of wisdom he gleaned from a decade of watching Manning in action.

Christensen talks to Luck about everything from how to watch film and when to nap to how to manage his interview schedule and the most graceful way to check into the team hotel. The goal, Christensen emphasizes, is not to create another Manning, but merely to try to save Luck some time and angst as he eases into his career.

The challenge for Christensen and the Colts’ offensive coordinator, Bruce Arians, who has taken over for Pagano as the head coach, is not to overload Luck. Everything remains new for him — he recently wondered about the best way to deal with the Colts’ bye week — and Christensen finds himself holding back even though Luck is clearly capable of racing ahead.

“He wants to go from home plate to second base and skip first,” Christensen said. “My job has been to keep him in the baselines. We’re not even close to halfway on this thing. We’re still just learning, still trying to make sure we have the basics: scheme, playbook, of going out on your own and doing something out of the ordinary. There is so much stress on the quarterback, you think you have to do more. We want to be steady plodders and keep improving.”

At this rate, Luck’s profile will soon rise as high as the posters of Manning once did. Until then, Luck is not even sure what would count as a successful rookie season for him.

“I would love to make the playoffs,” he said. “I know this is very cliché, but I don’t think I’m in the position, I don’t think the team is in the position, to overlook anybody. I need to learn as much as I can while I still have that young, fresh approach to things. I just wanted to make it to the first game and then go from there.” On, off the field, right attitude has driven Colts' Cory Redding to success Phil Richards Indianapolis Star October 11, 2012

Check the license plate on the front of his black GMC Denali.

"HTRA" it reads. "Have The Right Attitude."

Redding grew up in a single-parent home in Houston. His father was in and out until Cory was 8, then gone for good.

Uncle Charles was the nearest thing to a father figure. Uncle Charles served a tour of duty in Vietnam. He served a sentence in jail. He got out. He went back. And while he was there he saw a guard viciously beat a convict who had disrespected him.

It didn't escape Uncle Charles' notice that on a wall at the scene of the thrashing four letters were written: "HTRA."

Uncle Charles avoided beatings. He adopted the slogan. He made it his motto. He passed it on.

Cory was 12 by then and getting into things, but he loved his uncle and for whatever reason, HTRA stuck. It evolved into a lifestyle.

"It's old and repetitive and I've heard it a thousand different ways, done it a thousand different times, but I don't think about it like that," Redding said as he sipped coffee and munched on a muffin at the Starbucks down 56th Street from the Colts Northwest side complex.

"It's just one day, one obstacle, one challenge, one thing at a time and keep my mindset, keep my attitude positive so whatever they put in front of me, old or new, I'm going to go ahead and do it to the best of my ability."

Passing it on Have the right attitude. Do the right thing. Do it every time. It's an objective, it's a creed, it's a quality worth passing on.

That's what the Cory Redding Foundation is about. One of its many functions is a program at Longfellow Magnate Middle School on Indianapolis' near Eastside.

Students are required to sign a pledge that they will be responsible, respectful and abide by the school's code of conduct; they vow to come to school every day committed to taking full advantage of learning opportunities by giving maximum effort all the time.

Redding donates 15 tickets for every Colts home game. Seven students are selected for each game based on teacher recommendations. They, along with one of their parents and a school staff member, go to the game, receive a food and beverage voucher and an autographed "C-Redd" backpack.

"One thing I've been really pleased with is it's evident to me how passionate Cory is about helping our kids," said Brian Burke, principal of the first-year school. "This is important to him. You can really feel it and sense it when he comes out to talk to our kids.

"These kids come from the inner city and not the most wonderful circumstances. He gives them a chance to experience something they wouldn't have a chance to do."

The group goes down on the field for a pre-game photo op. Afterward, students, parents and staff members join Redding outside the Colts locker room. There are greetings, high-fives and hugs. There is a message. It varies with the game. It comes from the game. Every game is a life-lesson.

After the Colts dramatic comeback conquest of the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, Redding told the kids when everyone counts you out, don't you count yourself out. You can come back. You can do anything you want to do. You can be anything you want to be. Look at what we did today.

Eighth-grader Heather Biggerstaff was one of the students present. She took in Redding's message. She saw Andrew Luck and Reggie Wayne and Dwight Freeney. She was deeply impressed by it all. One thing stayed with her.

"(Redding's) arms," Biggerstaff said, her small hands arced in a 12-inch circle, "They're like this big."

Follow me Redding can relate to those in adverse circumstances because he has known adversity. He grew up in it. He also spent his first six NFL seasons, 2003-08, with the Detroit Lions.

The Lions lost an average of 11 games a season over that stretch. The Colts won an average of 13 over the same period.

Redding is a vibrant, vocal, relentless leader. He was team captain at North Shore High School, at the University of Texas and with the Lions, but he had never known challenges like these.

He was a one-armed end in 2007, when he played with a torn rotator cuff and labrum. He was a one-legged end in 2008, when he dislocated his kneecap and played with a torn meniscus.

It happened in mid-October.

"Popped it back in on the field. They got me on the sideline, taped me up, few pain pills, finished the game and played another eight weeks," Redding remembered.

Football became agony. He couldn't practice. He couldn't climb the stairs at home. He crawled up to his bedroom every night. He got down on his butt and slid down, a step at a time, each morning.

"My daughter, Kaylie, was 2 or 3 at the time," Redding said. "She made it a game. She thought it was funny."

The Lions were amidst an 0-16 season. Players checked out one after another. Redding played on until he underwent surgery after the 13th game. As captain, he felt it was his duty.

Robert Mathis sensed that commitment, saw that dedication, from Redding's first day with the Colts.

"When he walked through the door you felt the leader energy from him," the Colts 10th-year outside linebacker said. "There are not too many of them around the league that set themselves aside for the greater good of the team, and he's one of those guys."

Colts calling Colts coach Chuck Pagano knows Redding, the player and the person. They were together with the Baltimore Ravens in 2010-11.

That's why Redding's cell phone rang at 4 p.m. on March 13. It was the first moment of the first day of the 2012 free agent signing period. Redding was Pagano's first call. The new Colts coach told Redding he needed him.

"He was a huge guy to get," Colts general manager Ryan Grigson said. "Cory was a key, core position. That's a cornerstone of a 3-4. The 5-technique is so hard to find. It's the 6-4, 6-5, 300-pound body type that has to be athletic enough to rush the passer, but has to set the edge like a trip-hammer and be strong at the point.

"He also was a guy who knew the defense so well. He was a vocal leader who could resonate through all these young guys that were coming in."

Redding had a huge game against the Packers: six tackles, two sacks, two quarterback hits. Defensive ends are stars in 4-3 schemes. They are grunts in the 3-4, a hybrid of which the Colts play. Ends are more like tackles; the good ones command double-teams, tie up blockers, and on occasion, beat them to make plays.

Redding has been everything the Colts hoped. He has resonated with the young guys as Pagano and Grigson expected.

"I try to model my professionalism off Cory," Colts nose tackle Brandon McKinney said. "Guys ask him how to be a professional and a family man. You see guys gravitate to him."

A lasting legacy Redding strives to be a difference-maker. On the field, in life, it's all the same. HTRA is portable. It goes everywhere.

Redding met his wife of nine years, Priscilla, at Texas. They went home to their alma-mater in May. They gave $100,000 to endow the Cory and Priscilla Redding Family Scholarship and pledged the Redding Foundation's support for ongoing fundraising.

The scholarship will go to needy students in the school's College of Education. Those students will become teachers, counselors, principals, and the Reddings hope, difference-makers in the lives of youth.

"When I'm dead and gone and in the dirt 100 years from now, Cory Redding's presence is still going to be felt," Redding said, "because of this scholarship giving that person an opportunity to get the tools they learned from me and my family and our scholarship and what it embodies."

Those beneficiaries won't be the only ones studying. Redding took an online government class last summer. He's still working toward his UT degree. To not do so, he said, would be hypocritical.

It's a simple case of a simple mindset: HTRA.

Bob Kravitz: Irsay, Grigson deliver game ball to Pagano after emotional Colts win Indianapolis Star Bob Kravitz October 7, 2012

For you, Chuck.

"In my 40 years in this business, I've never been prouder of a team and how they battled back," team owner Jim Irsay told me after he and general Ryan Grigson presented Pagano with the game ball early Sunday night at the IU Simon Cancer Center. "I've been in a lot of winning locker rooms, Super Bowl locker rooms, but I've never had an experience like this. People talk about money, what the team is worth, those kinds of things, but this was priceless. Absolutely priceless.

"We walked in, he (Pagano) got up, we all embraced and shed some tears and Chuck said, `You know, I don't feel so sick right now.'"

How great is that?

You should have seen them, Chuck. You should have seen the beaming smiles, the eyes rimmed red with tears, the unfettered joy that suffused your Indianapolis Colts locker room late Sunday afternoon.

We know you weren't here, Chuck, know you were having a rough day over in room C23 at the IU Simon Cancer Center. But you were here, Chuck, here in the hearts of all of your players and coaches and fans and well-wishers.

Did you see it, Chuck, see Andrew Luck spike the football and then run over to your chuckstrong banner and give it a loving tap after he scored a touchdown?

This was for you, Coach. This victory, this amazing, come-from-behind, gut-check 30-27 victory over the Green Bay Packers, it was for you.

"You know, you see things in the movie, but oftentimes, life isn't as beautiful as they make it out to be," Irsay said. "But this went way past that. This was the stuff of movies. This was beautiful."

It's hard to know, Chuck, just how much emotion played in this game, but I've got to think -- we've all got to think -- that when they went down 21-3 at halftime, it had to cross their minds: "Our coach is dealing with a lot more real-life adversity than a simple 21-3 deficit. Keep fighting. Keep fighting."

There have been a lot of great moments in recent Colts history, and there have been some emotional moments, the most emotional coming in the Arizona game after returned from his son's funeral. But this felt like the most inspirational and beautiful of all of them. They wanted this for you, Chuck, and damned if they didn't find a way to make it happen.

Damned if Luck didn't take another step in his progression toward eventual greatness, taking a beating in the first half and fighting back and making magical things happen. Did you jump out of your bed, Chuck, when Luck somehow eluded Clay Matthews' grasp and completed that monster third-down pass to Reggie Wayne?

Damned if Wayne didn't play the best game of his amazing career, snatching everything and anything with those orange gloves. Wayne knows you better than anybody, having first encountered you 16 years ago at the University of Miami. Everybody wanted this for you, but nobody more than Wayne.

"I looked up and those orange gloves were catching everything," Luck said with a smile. "It seemed like there were eight pairs of orange gloves out there."

It seemed that way, didn't it?

"The league might fine me," Wayne said of the possibility the NFL will hit him with a uniform violation. "But if they do, I'll take one for the team."

Can we just pass a hat?

We will always remember this performance from Wayne -- 13 catches, 212 yards. He wanted this for you, Chuck. He wanted this as badly as he's ever wanted anything in the game of football.

"They better make room in the Hall of Fame for Reggie," Irsay said, his voice still hoarse and wavering after visiting Pagano. "Right next to Marvin (Harrison)."

They fought, Chuck, because they know how you're fighting. Many of them have been touched themselves by cancer -- friends, relatives. They know about the hell of chemotherapy, the way it breaks down your body and soul. But they weren't going to quit, Chuck, because they know you're not going to quit.

"We want Coach to know, we'll fight here while he fights over there," Dwight Freeney said.

Man, did they fight.

And, in the process, they grew up. A lot.

For a half, it looked like this would be one fairy tale that would never get written. The Packers dominated, moving the ball with alacrity on offense, terrorizing and sacking Luck on defense. For all the emotion in the building, it looked, simply and sadly, like the better, more talented team was going to win this game.

But it says something about the foundation you've built, Chuck, that your team, your organization, never flinched. "Give it up for Chuck!" defensive end Cory Redding yelled at his teammates during the game. "Every play! Give it up for Chuck!"

So they dug in.

And suddenly, everything changed.

A Jerraud Powers interception started it early in the third quarter, and from there, the Colts were carried by an avalanche of excellence and raw emotion.

The running game got in gear, the best game we've seen from Donald Brown and the patchwork offensive line in a long time. As a result, the play-action game started working and Luck earned some time to throw.

The defense started pounding Aaron Rodgers, who went untouched in the first half and picked them apart.

The secondary, playing without two of its three best players, Justin King and Vontae Davis, started covering receivers.

And Luck and Wayne -- with help from the patchwork offensive line and others -- began to do remarkable, memorable things.

"We really didn't change anything in the second half," Powers said. "But the guys up front started putting pressure on (Rodgers), forced him outside the pocket a couple of times and that made our job on the back end a lot easier. Once we started getting a couple of sacks, the game changed.

"That's the most emotional game I've ever played in. Basically, you've got the whole NFL nation rallying around him. And even the Packers, they came out wearing chuckstrong t-shirts. It just shows you, while we may be on different teams, we're all part of a brotherhood."

Anthony Castonzo smiled as he thought about your reaction, Chuck.

"You can picture him with a big smile on his face in his hospital bed," Castonzo said. "That means a ton to us."

The joy in Irsay's voice was audible. "That's as excited and animated as I've seen Chuck," he said. "I'll never forget the look on his face when we walked in with the game ball. We'll all treasure this moment forever."

They did it, Chuck.

They did it for you. Chuck Pagano will be back and stronger than ever Indianapolis Star Bob Kravitz October 1, 2012

If you pass by the Colts practice facility late some night, and look at it from a certain angle, you will see a lone light shining.

It’s the light that will stay on in Colts head coach Chuck Pagano’s office until he returns to the team after his battle with acute promyelocytic leukemia.

It’s the light of hope.

“I feel with every fiber in my body, and I know Chuck feels the same way, that he can beat this thing,” team owner Jim Irsay said during an emotional Monday morning press conference.

Now comes a challenge of a lifetime, something so much bigger than Pagano or the Colts ever could have imagined. The next few weeks of chemotherapy will be hellish, and the months after that will be no picnic, either. But the statistics are on Pagano’s side, with a 90 percent of chance of complete remission and cure.

And if you know anything about Pagano, you know he will beat this thing into submission.

The man who has given so many impassioned speeches to his players must now listen to, and believe, his own words.

“What’s our objective?” Pagano asked his team in a speech captured by NFL Films. “Why are we doing this? To win. Beat your man, period. What is going to be our legacy, your legacy? Go home and write a script. Do you want to be an also-ran, just another guy, a guy who had a cup of coffee, or do you want to be the best who ever played the position?

“The objective is to win.’’

Pagano will win. Because the stakes here are much higher than any single football game. We make predictions in this newspaper all the time, and we’re going to make another one:

When training camp opens in Anderson next summer, Pagano will be on the field, whistle in hand, barking out orders, a man in full.

Understand, this is not child’s play. There is risk, of infection, of all kinds of things. There will be chemotherapy. At some point, there might be a bone-marrow transplant. It will be the longest, toughest year of Pagano’s life.

But it will also provide Pagano with a chance to be so much more than an NFL football coach. He has a chance to be an inspiration, a guiding light in the fight against cancer. He has a chance to move people the way Lance Armstrong moved people, with or without the cheating scandal.

“We talked about (how) grabbing that Lombardi Trophy someday is going to be that much sweeter when we overcome this,” Irsay said of his talks with Pagano. “How he’s going to be one of those men who can help others, talk to them in the hospital and say, ‘Hey, I faced this diagnosis and here I am, 10, 15 years later living my life,’ and share his hope, strength and experience with others.’’

Pagano will need to be heroic in his recovery, but you know who the hero is right now? Tina Pagano, his wife. When the fatigue and the bruising became alarming, she forced her husband to go to the doctor to get some tests run. If you know men, you know the last thing they want to do is run to the doctor. Fatigue? Please. Head coaches are always fatigued.

Thank heavens, then, for Tina. Thank heavens for the early bye week, which gave Pagano the freedom and time to get this checked.

Clearly, Pagano and his health are first and foremost in everybody’s mind, but it has to be asked: What happens now with the team? What happens now that they’ve lost their leader for the rest of the season?

Tony Dungy once said, “The true measure of an organization can be seen by how it operates without its leader.”

To start, they made the right call in moving Bruce Arians into the interim role. Arians, himself a survivor of prostate cancer, has a ton of experience in this league. He has asked all his assistants to do what they’ve been doing all along; only Arians’ responsibilities will be increased. He will call plays and be the head coach.

“The defensive guys were shook up when I was cheering for them,” said Arians, an offensive coach. “The offensive guys thought I was being a traitor.”

It should also bring a close, young team even closer, give it a heightened sense of purpose. Now they are playing for more than their jobs and some victories. Now they are playing for Pagano, turning the Coltsstrong hashtag into Chuckstrong.

“I know that in meeting with the players, meeting with the coaches, there’s nothing more that we want than to get that Green Bay game ball and have a victory game ball and be able to walk into that hospital and put it in his hands,” Irsay said. “That’s our goal.”

Pagano needs to know this: An entire region is rooting for him, just as we rallied around Tony Dungy and his family after Dungy’s son’s suicide. These will be tough times, but tough people persevere. Pagano will be back and stronger than ever.

“The best way we can honor him is to keep playing hard and win,” Mathis said. “He’s going to be missed. The energy he brought, the way he dealt with people, we’ll miss all of that. All we can do is support him and his family.”

As Mathis spoke, a giant card reading “Happy Birthday” and “Get Well Soon” was being signed by the entire team.

Tuesday, by the way, is Pagano’s 52nd birthday.

There will be plenty more. Count on that. Beyond long shot: Jerrell Freeman's winding journey to the Indianapolis Colts Indianapolis Star Phil Richards September 27, 2012

Crisis came early in Jerrell Freeman’s football career. He came out of University High School in Waco, Texas, a 188-pound defensive end. No one wanted him.

He enrolled at an NCAA Division III school in Belmont, Texas — the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor, a women’s college until 1971 that played its first football game in 1998. Freeman enrolled on an academic scholarship.

“I was 190 by the time I got up there. I beefed up,” said Freeman, now the Indianapolis Colts’ starting inside linebacker and the team’s leading tackler. “I threw on about three pounds to get ready.”

All Freeman wanted to do was play football.

He excelled. The NFL’s Tennessee Titans signed him as an undrafted free agent in 2008. They cut him during the preseason.

“It was a humbling experience,” Freeman said. “I went up to Canada.”

He signed with the Saskatchewan Rough Riders. He played special teams as a rookie in 2009. He started one of the Rough Riders’ 18 regular-season games as a linebacker the next year. He was a CFL All-Star in 2011.

All Freeman wanted to do was play football.

The Colts called. A batch of NFL teams called. There were visits, workouts, then an offer, from the Colts. He grabbed it.

When he arrived in Indianapolis in January, Freeman took a look at the depth chart. There was no one behind him. How could there have been? He was No. 7.

No matter. All he wanted to do was play football.

“You look at that and you go, ‘Oh, man, I’m way down here.’ I just slowly worked my way to the top, every day, every day,” he said. “I’ve been proving myself all the way up.

“Been through a lot, done a lot, have a nice little story. It’s just perseverance.”

That’s no accident.

Freeman got his impressive speed and perseverance from his father, a bullet-quick high school running back.

Jimmy Freeman started in the ditch. He repaired sewer line and water lines for the city of Waco. He worked his way up to backhoe operator. He kept working. The workers work for Jimmy now; he’s the water department’s operations supervisor.

“I worked my way up, and that’s Jerrell,” said Jimmy, Jerrell’s hero and best friend. “We have a little saying called finger-popping (think finger snaps): when everybody’s out finger-popping, having fun or going dancing or whatever, that’s when you put in your work, when nobody’s watching.”

Jerrell didn’t go out on Friday nights after high school football games. It was his habit to get up early Saturday mornings, when no one was watching, and go to the gym.

Nine-year Colt and former defensive captain Gary Brackett would have loved this guy. Freeman (6-0, 234) is undersized. He can run, he can cover and you can’t bend or buckle his spirit. He is instinctive. He is studious. He is almost always in position: 13 tackles against Chicago, 18 against Minnesota and 16 vs. Jacksonville (coach’s totals, per film review).

That’s no accident, either.

“He is the one guy I can say has progressed pretty much every single day,” Colts linebackers coach Jeff Fitzgerald said. “It might be baby steps, it might be small increments but it’s been progress.”

Freeman, Fitzgerald said, has “set his feet in this defense. He’s not going away.”

Freeman’s three starts have come in the position vacated by another tackling machine, 2010 second-round draft pick Pat Angerer, a boiling cauldron of football intensity.

Angerer suffered a broken foot on the first defensive snap of the Colts’ first preseason game. He did some limited work Tuesday and Wednesday during the Colts’ two bye-week practices and hopes to play Oct. 7 when Green Bay visits. Whenever Angerer returns, Freeman will remain in the mix for playing time.

In the meantime, Angerer has been impressed.

“You look at a guy like that and (you say), ‘Why was he in Canada?’.” Angerer said. “He’s a good football player and I think we’re a better team with him. I’ve learned a lot from him.”

Freeman signed a three-year, $1.44 million contract with the Colts in January. That’s an average salary of $480,000, more than 10 times the $45,000 he made in Canada.

“Taxes up there slice it in half. Then with the exchange rate it takes some more,” Freeman said. “So when you come home, you’re not really going to come home with much.”

That didn’t matter. For Freeman, the CFL wasn’t about making money, it was about paying dues. His motivation has never wavered.

All Freeman wanted to do was play football.

Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee’s goal? To become ‘the best to ever do it’ Indianapolis Star Phil Richards September 22, 2012

Pat McAfee is a punter, a sure-handed holder, a kickoff specialist and an eager, effective tackler. He’s a free spirit, a wisecracker, a jokester and one other thing.

He’s a determined, dead serious professional.

McAfee joined the Indianapolis Colts as a seventh-round draft choice in 2009 and he arrived on a mission with a vision that has never wavered.

“I wanted to figure this out and try to become the best who ever did it. I think I’ll be trying to do that for the rest of my career,” he said, snapping off the words now with the solemnity of a vow: “to be the best to ever do it.”

There’s more. McAfee, 25, is the Colts’ backup place-kicker. He kicked field goals at the University of West Virginia. He has kicked them in NFL preseason games. He has spent the past four years studying and interrogating Adam Vinatieri, 39.

“I want to be the first to do all three,” he said of the punter-kicker-kickoff triple. “I’ve had the amazingly fortunate opportunity to watch Adam, the greatest of all time, kick, day in and day out.

“He might outlast me in this league, but if I outlast him, I would love the opportunity to do all three and the front office knows that.”

McAfee converted 58-of-79 field goal attempts (73.4 percent) with a long of 52 yards at West Virginia. He will tell you that punting was the least of his skills coming into the NFL.

So he has spent the past four years delving into its art and science. He has worked during the offseason with punting coach Jamie Kohl, whose pupils include the ’ , considered the NFL’s most technically pure punter. McAfee has improved his leg strength. He has refined his technique.

He’s averaging 52.5 yards a punt, third in the league and a mere eight-tenths of a yard shy of the leader, Morstead. McAfee has had three punts downed inside the 20-yard line, two inside the 6.

Nine of his 10 kickoffs have reached the end zone. He has four touchbacks, a figure that undoubtedly would be greater were opponents not anxious to bring the ball out from seven and eight yards deep in the end zone to test the Colts’ traditionally shoddy coverage.

Colts’ new long snapper Matt Overton definitely took road less traveled Indianapolis Star Philip B. Wilson September 20, 2012

The Colts’ new long snapper hasn’t been noticed in two games, which is a good thing.

Matt Overton, the unknown successor to longtime standout Justin Snow, has quietly gone about his business hiking footballs on field goals, extra points and punts without fail.

These guys typically don’t get any pub unless they screw up. Or unless you’re Snow, who became so proficient at the craft that he’s still going strong in his 13th season, now with the Washington Redskins.

It was a surprise to many when the Colts kept Overton instead of Snow at the end of preseason. Nobody knew much about the new guy. Everybody had grown accustomed to Snow as a mainstay, the guy who was always on the mark, hustled downfield on punts to make 39 tackles, and was a generous community activist.

What’s even more surprising, to be honest, is Overton not giving up on his NFL dream. He went to junior college before snapping at Western Washington, which is rather remote. Seattle cut him before the regular season in 2007.

So he snapped in Arena Football 2 for the Tri-Cities Fever in 2008. Then he moved onto the United Football League’s Florida Tuskers in 2009. The Seahawks took another look at him in 2010, but cut him again in preseason. He spent the last two years with the UFL’s Omaha Nighthawks. In 2010, he made the league’s top 10 list as its best long snapper.

Overton, 27, admits he had his doubts about ever making the NFL.

“There’s been times, definitely, but for whatever reason I had it in my heart to keep working,” he said. “As a man, sometimes, you’ve got to give yourself a little reality check. The hardest thing about this business is not having some stability and just bouncing around. At some point, you kind of feel like, ‘You know what, maybe I should just give it up and move on to the next chapter in my life.’ But there was always something in my heart that told me to keep on moving and here I am today.”

He finally made it. Apart from his own perseverance, landing this job was a testament to Snow’s professionalism, too. The guy Overton replaced actually helped him.

“I knew coming in here would be a challenge, competing against one of the best in the league, a 10-plus-year veteran in Justin Snow, someone who I’ve looked up to growing up,” Overton said. “But once I got here, it was really great to compete against one of the best because it brought the best out of me. Justin was such a great mentor for me, on and off the field, he really took me under his wing. Once things got along in preseason, he started coaching me up more because we were into games. He made me feel more comfortable and gave me some great tips and some things he’s learned over his career. Also (kicker Adam) Vinatieri and (punter Pat) McAfee and the coaching staff have helped a lot as well.”

Vinatieri, Sunday’s hero with a game-winning 53-yard field goal, appreciated Snow and has quickly developed a similar respect for Overton.

“I love Justin,” Vinatieri said. “He did a great job for this team for many, many years. He’s still a great snapper and can continue his career. Matt, I can’t say enough good things about him. He came in here, total professional, every day he tried to get better and learn the things he needed to. Credit Justin, he helped him along the way to develop his craft. I’ll tell you what, Matt, he’s a very good snapper. He can cover and run down the field well. He does everything right. I look forward to him being very successful for many years to come.”

The numbers suggest this long snapper switch was because of money. Snow was set to make $925,000. Overton costs just $390,000. While that’s the bottom-line business reality, it’s somewhat unfair to Overton. He’s proven himself so far, although he realizes he’s only as good as his next snap. Screw up once and people will be saying Snow should still be here.

He keeps hiking. Chicago’s season opener was a dream come true. Overton stays focused. He wants to continue to live the dream.

“It’s been six years that I’ve been on this journey to get to this point,” Overton said. “I just took any opportunity that came. I’ve been released a lot, cut from teams, but I had to just keep on persevering. I knew I had what it took. Landing in Omaha in the United Football League was a blessing for me. Getting that exposure and getting that experience, playing with some perennial pros like , it’s definitely been a long road.”

Try to name another guy who reached the NFL after playing in AF2 and the UFL. Not a long list.

“No, not at all,” he said. “As a long snapper, you can be in this league for a long time. It was just one of those things where I had to kind of wait for an opportunity and prepare for one. (Tight end) Dominique Jones and I crossed paths in the UFL and here we are on the Colts team together.

“It goes to show that hard word does pay off. You can definitely take the road less traveled to where you want to go.”

Stops in Germany, Houston and Stanford helped shape Andrew Luck on his journey here Indianapolis Star Phil Richards September 9, 2012

As the standout starting quarterback for Stanford University, Andrew Luck engaged in an unusual huddle ritual.

When Luck looped a particularly deft touch pass over a defender or fired a bullet into a tight window for a completion to , the Cardinal tight end sometimes returned to the huddle to say:

"Gut geworfen!"

"Gut gefangen!," Luck would rejoin.

Good throw.

Good catch.

Gut grief.

Luck, who will make his NFL debut with the Indianapolis Colts this afternoon, is more than a unique talent; he springs from a unique background. He was born in Washington, D.C., but spent 10 of his first 11 years in Europe, seven of them in Germany. He will acknowledge his familiarity with the language but he disavows fluency.

That's Luck being Luck. Like when he refers to himself as "a scrub rookie," the fact that he was the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft notwithstanding. Or after he threw for a 63-yard touchdown on his first preseason pass but afterward wanted to talk about "hometown hero Harnish," Chandler Harnish, the Colts' Bluffton, Ind.-born No. 3 quarterback who went 3-for-3 in the same game.

Humility, it seems, is an international trait.

Luck's father, Oliver, was a storied quarterback at the University of West Virginia who in 1982 was a second-round draft choice of the NFL's Houston Oilers. It was in Houston where a teammate, 12-year veteran Archie Manning, sometimes assigned Luck "rookie" chores, like taking Manning's sons, Cooper and Peyton, to McDonald's.

By 1989, Oliver and his wife, Kathy, were attorneys working in Washington. When the NFL offered Oliver an executive position to help launch the World League of , later NFL Europe, Oliver accepted.

The Lucks thought it would be a wonderful opportunity to expose Andrew and the other children they planned to have to a wider world. Daughters Mary Ellen, a junior volleyball player at Stanford, and Emily, a Stanford freshman, and son Addison, a high school sophomore, were born in Europe.

As NFL Europe's point man, it was Oliver's job to study and understand the Old World sports culture. He chased all over Western Europe attending not only World League football games but Champions League soccer and Premiere League rugby contests.

He took Andrew along. The interest in architecture that put Andrew on a course to eventually graduate with honors from Stanford's Architectural Design program was sparked by the soaring stadiums he visited with Dad.

Andrew and his siblings didn't just live in Europe. For 10 years, they were immersed in it: schools, customs, traditions and cultures, literature, languages and attitudes. They traveled Germany, Holland, Italy, England, Scotland, and France.

They say you are what you eat. The Lucks ate sauerbraten, coq au vin, paella and Yorkshire pudding. They ate European. And while they visited Spain they ate summer suppers with and like the Spaniards, at 10:30 p.m. They quite naturally slipped, Oliver said, into the rhythms and nuances of Spanish life.

How does one quantify the impact of all that?

"I wish I could compare it to a life where I've never spent any time overseas," Andrew said. "But I think I do appreciate different cultures a little more. It opened my eyes to different cultures, different ways of going about things that are OK, that aren't taboo."

It opened his eyes to Stanford, where high scholarship is the common ground and celebrity walks it unnoticed. Luck arrived at the gym at 6 for an early session one morning and found himself working out alongside Madame Secretary Condoleezza Rice, professor of political science, former U.S. secretary of state and recently one of the first two women admitted to Augusta National Golf Club. Inquiring and acquisitive Nate Nakadate is the kind of teacher every lucky student should have. He's the one they will never forget. Nakadate (NAH-kuh-dottie) teaches creative writing and senior English at Houston's Stratford High School. He is Irish/Cherokee. He is a literati, musician, bon vivant, surfer-dude and fly fisherman.

He believes Europe opened Luck's mind. He recalls Luck as an intellectually vigorous and acquisitive student.

"There was an astute essay he penned about Hamlet's inner conflict and turmoil I recall, and from then on, I knew he would do well at a stellar school like Stanford," Nakadate said. "Life and understanding it has to do with paying attention to the most minute details, which he does well."

"Andrew always came to class fired up about life, literature and discussion. There was rarely any talk about football."

Stratford has on several occasions made Newsweek magazine's annual listing of America's Top High Schools. Luck was co- valedictorian of the school's graduating class of 400 in 2008.

It was much the same at Stanford, where John Barton, director of the Architectural Design program, was Luck's academic advisor, taught him in two classes and partnered with him on a project.

As early as his sophomore year, Luck was distinguishing himself with an aptitude Barton has seldom seen until the postgraduate level.

"He has an ability to see parts and whole at the same time," Barton said. "He can take apart an architectural project and say, "I see the site plan and the way the structure integrates with it this way and because of the structure I want to pull the skin out this way and I want to think about using these materials and being very different.

"When I saw that, I said, 'Oh, I get it. I see how you do it on the football field.' "

Homecoming and football Luck didn't play football in Europe. No one but NFL Europe players did. On the infrequent occasions when Andrew and his father threw a football around in the front yard of their home in Frankfurt and later Düsseldorf, they drew stares.

Andrew played soccer and basketball. He was a ball handling midfielder in the former, dribbling, head always up, eyes surveying the field, marking the defenders, calculating the angles. He was a point guard in the latter, dribbling, head always up, eyes surveying the field, marking defenders, calculating angles. He was the quarterback, you see, before he ever played a snap.

When the Lucks returned from Europe in 2001, they returned to Houston. Football is to Texas what basketball is to Indiana. Andrew plunged into it.

He played defensive end while dabbling at running back and quarterback in fifth and sixth grade. Oliver was his Pop Warner League coach and this was Texas Pop Warner; their team played at least one game under the lights.

By the time Andrew reached Stratford High School, where there are six football teams on campus, freshman A, B and C, sophomore, junior varsity and varsity, he was a quarterback. Varsity coach Eliot Allen found a lot to like.

"He's a very genuine person. He cares about others. He's very, very humble," said Allen, neglecting any mention of football acuity, arm strength, 40-yard dash time and the like.

Humility is a recurrent thread with Luck. As a kid, he so loathed the spotlight, he stiff-armed it, ran from it.

"I had a complete aversion to attention," Luck said. "Even in high school, what little attention a quarterback got, I squirmed a lot."

At Stanford, coach , the former Colts quarterback and current San Francisco 49ers coach, called Luck, the "Anti- Celebrity" and the "Anti-Big Man on Campus."

So it's no surprise that Luck was nearly mute and entirely deferential as the sophomore starting quarterback at Stratford, a most unusual circumstance in hard-charging Houston football. That changed during the season opener.

The Spartans were locked in a tense defensive struggle, protecting a three-point lead when they got the ball back with the clock ticking down in the fourth quarter. They needed a game-clinching drive when Luck and his offensive teammates took the field.

"Andrew had never really talked before. He had always been so quiet," Eliot said. "I looked out on the field and I could see him screaming in the huddle. His head was bobbing up and down, he was pointing. It was amazing to see."

Stratford made a couple first downs. The Spartans killed the clock and won the game.

"Andrew never did anything wrong," Eliot said. "Then the seniors came to the sideline and they were, 'Oh, my gosh. You should have heard the language out there.' "

And a splash of Tabasco It's a bright, sunny June morning. Luck hasn't yet signed the fully guaranteed four-year, $24 million contract the Colts would soon award him, but his appetite is undiminished.

Sitting a few blocks from his downtown Indianapolis home, he orders a skillet breakfast: potatoes, ham, mushrooms and onions blanketed with melted cheese and a pair of basted eggs. He keeps the Tabasco sauce handy. He uses it liberally.

The collar of his fashionable striped polo shirt is tousled and tucked under, but he is blissfully unaware. He is a manchild.

Between bites, he speaks easily, honestly, earnestly. He is engaged and engaging. He is agreeable, obliging, trusting. He wanders off the record at times.

"You have a girlfriend," his interrogator probes hopefully.

"Yes," Luck responds.

"Can you tell me about her?" comes the question.

"No," he replies.

Luck has learned to deal with attention because the quarterback has to, like his father before him, but there are boundaries and Luck isn't bashful about establishing them. Like his mother, Kathy, who declined to be interviewed for this story, and all stories, he has a private side.

"He's very intelligent but he's not, like, nerdy," said Griff Whalen, the walk-on wide receiver who was Luck's Stanford roommate for three years, then signed with the Colts as an undrafted free agent but suffered a season-ending a broken foot. "He's fun. He likes to have a good time. He's very social.

"And he sleeps as much as anybody I know."

Whalen quickly learned to keep his hands off the remote when Luck was watching soccer and to quickly change the channel when a Luck clip was aired on SportsCenter or one of the Bay Area stations. That was a boundary.

Whalen and his teammates teased Luck about his love of soccer (ugh), his battered flip-phone (decidedly unsmart and hopelessly unfashionable), his weary Honda Accord (not cool), his singing (awful) and his Bananagrams (annoying).

The latter is a speed word game. It came in a care package and Luck was forever recruiting players for dorm room games. The organizer almost always won.

Check with me Eight days after the Colts made Luck the draft's first overall pick, he lined up under center with the rest of the club's rookie class. Luck read the defense. He identified the "Mike," the defender off whom the offense keys its blocking scheme. He called the protection. He began his cadence.

He watched the defense shift.

Luck didn't blink. He instantly made the check that re-identified the Mike, changed the protection and set the hot receivers and their routes.

"All the other rookies just kind of stopped and looked at him and said, 'I have no idea what you're talking about Andrew,' " Colts coach Chuck Pagano recalled. "So we just kind of blew the whistle, got them back in the huddle, got everybody on the same page and moved forward.

"Typical Andrew."

It was the first day of rookie mini-camp. Luck had made a check that was three or four installations ahead. Only he knew it.

"He's calm. He's pretty good at making decisions. He's going to be special," volunteered 12th-year Colt and five-time Pro Bowl receiver Reggie Wayne.

"It's just 'Wow!' every day," testified Colts offensive coordinator Bruce Arians.

"He really is what we thought he was," affirmed Colts general manager Ryan Grigson.

Four-time NFL Most Valuable Player Peyton Manning's successor will make his debut this afternoon when the Indianapolis Colts play the Chicago Bears in a season-opener at Soldier Field.

His name is Andrew Luck.

Colts coach Chuck Pagano is all about family Indianapolis Star Philip B. Wilson September 7, 2012

They arrived early that morning, a teenage daughter eager to tag along with her coaching father for a day at the University of Miami football office in the late 1990s.

"It was 5 o'clock, all the Spanish-speaking cleaning ladies are there," said Tara Lavier, now 30 and a married mother of two.

Chuck Pagano's oldest of three daughters describes in detail what resonated from that morning.

"My dad knows them all by name and says hello," she said. "They loved him. They taught him Spanish. And he respected them as hard-working people. As he's always told me, 'It's so important to know, from who cleans the floor to whomever, you be nice and respectable to everybody.'

"I thought it was so cool he knew the whole cleaning staff. That's the type of person he is. He's always been like that."

One of Pagano's first words, when hired as Indianapolis Colts coach in January, was "relationships."

"We were brought up that way," said San Diego defensive coordinator , 45, Chuck's younger brother by six years. "One of the greatest things is how genuine Chuck is. He's an inspiration. I always strive to be like him."

That would be an emotional guy with an indefatigable work ethic, a man who balances football with family while not losing sight of the importance to respect and connect with people.

But to single him out for such traits, the way he sees it, would be like commending him for breathing.

"It's nothing special," Chuck Pagano said. "It's just the right thing to do."

Those closest to him suggest he's being modest about the qualities that have helped him succeed personally and professionally.

"He wants everything to be just and fair," said his mother, Diana, 78.

She has been married 50 years to Chuck's father, Sam, who retired with three high school state titles as a football coach in Boulder, Colo.

"The thing about Chuck is he's learned loyalty," said Sam, 74, who echoes a message his son reinforces daily. "The foundation will be relationships, trust and loyalty."

Marriage proposal

The Paganos consider themselves simple folks, so Chuck's ascendance to the Colts' helm is still surreal, especially when they see him receiving national publicity.

"That part of it," said Chuck's wife, Tina, "it sometimes just makes me laugh."

Tara and her sisters -- Taylor, 22, and Tori, 18 -- crack up, too.

"It's so crazy," said Tori, who lives in Baltimore after graduating from high school a year early. "My family has honestly been dreaming of this moment for my dad for so long. Obviously we know how great he is. It was just a matter of time for someone else to see it."

It's no secret Chuck doesn't care for the spotlight. He says he loves flying under the radar, although people in his high-profile position aren't afforded anonymity. He insists praise should be given to coaches, players and family. Anybody else, even those cleaning ladies, not him.

That's the hard-nosed football coach talking. Yet his family gushes about him anyway. Tina appreciates how her husband sticks to a weekly date night during the NFL season.

"That's something we've always done, even when we couldn't afford a babysitter," she said. They've come a long way from a chance meeting in Boise, Idaho. It was his second season as an assistant at Boise State. Tina's brother was a wide receiver. They were introduced after a game but she didn't think anything of it.

It turned into a whirlwind romance, but not without a memorable broken date early on, when Chuck had to work instead.

"In my mind, I'm like, 'OK, he's blowing me off. Who works on Sunday?' " Tina said. "Now I know."

She caught on quickly. What also caught her eye was how Chuck had a similar personality to her father, Ron Heffner, a man with a tremendous heart. They were married about six months later.

"One thing led to another, we dated for a couple months, then I took a job at East Carolina," Chuck said. "She came for spring break, I put her on a plane, she got home (to Boise). I called her later to see that she got home all right and I asked her to marry me over the phone.

"I called her dad the next morning and he almost hung up on me. He couldn't believe it. Twenty-two years later, we're still cooking."

Speaking of which, Chuck can cook, too. When the family returns to Boise each summer for about a month, they look forward to his special spaghetti sauce and homemade meatballs.

"That's his signature dish," said Tara, who lives in Boise.

He's tweaked the original recipe passed down from Sam, who learned it from his mother. And what's in it that makes it so special?

"A lot of love and a lot of feeling put in with that oregano, that basil, garlic and onions," Sam said. "And the best tomatoes are murano tomatoes from Italy."

Back in Boise, Chuck also can't wait to hop on a bike and hit a trail, although his daughters are mindful it can be an exhausting pursuit. He coaxed Taylor into a ride on the Boise River Greenbelt up to Table Rock last summer.

"It's something I've only done once before," she said. "I didn't want to do it in the beginning, but he's just so motivating. He's like, 'Come on, you'll feel so good after.' He's so encouraging and he's like, 'You have the strength, you can do anything.' "

About 90 minutes later, they finished the ride.

"I wouldn't let her quit," Chuck said.

It's just like when he drove Tori to gymnastics practice when she was in elementary school. She had grown tired of three-hour workouts at such an early age and complained.

"He would be like, 'You stick to this. You started it, you're going to finish,' " she said. "He was always encouraging that way. He taught us we're not quitters in this family."

The three girls are older and scattered. Taylor graduated from UNC-Wilmington and is about to attend an Arizona medical school based on natural healing. Tori plans to enroll at the University of Maryland to study elementary education. Tara and her husband are expecting a third daughter in November.

So their father stays closely connected through text messages.

"He'll send this text sometimes, it's long and heartfelt, and will make you cry," Taylor said. "I'll be like, 'Dad, why did you do that to me? I've got a test today.' But they're always happy tears because it's always something loving and proud."

Adds Tara, "That smart phone is the worst thing to ever happen to him. Just kidding."

More than football

Never forget, though, Chuck Pagano can flip the switch and turn tenacious in an instant.

Tara recalled when was the first boy to pick her up for a date. Terrified her father would embarrass her, she begged Tina to keep dad in check. The kids thought they were in the clear after leaving the house.

"We're walking out and dad comes walking around from the back of the house with a shovel," Tara said. "He sticks out his hand and says, 'Hi.' Then he says, 'Just so you know, I've got a shovel here; if you don't have her home by 10 o'clock, I'll bury you in my backyard and nobody will miss you.'"

She made it home on time.

"Oh yeah, are you kidding?" she said. "He was probably the last boy to ever come to the house to take me out on a date."

Colts players can expect their new leader to be just as intense and protective. Entrusted with the challenging task of turning around an overhauled 2-14 team, he has used negative prognostications as motivation. One player T-shirt ranks the Colts dead last in 32nd. Another highlights the slogan, "Build The Monster." It's all about fostering togetherness in that locker room.

"That's the kind of atmosphere we're trying to create here," Chuck Pagano said. "If you don't have family, what else do you have?"

This balancing act of family and football inevitably intersect. But what defines him is still quite simple.

"It's important for people to know that it's not always about football," Tori said. "There's a lot more to him as a person than being a great football coach."

Castonzo realizes good fortune blocking for Luck Chicago Tribune Dan Pompei August 23, 2012

INDIANAPOLIS — Protecting the blindside of Andrew Luck might entail a little more stress than protecting the blindside of Curtis Painter or Dan Orlovsky.

Anthony Castonzo, the Colts' second-year left tackle out of Boston College, knows what it feels like.

"It's a big responsibility keeping (Luck) healthy," he said. "He's obviously a very good player we are going to need. So keeping him healthy is my biggest job."

But blocking for Luck has its benefits for Castonzo, who went to Lake Zurich High School. Luck is pretty adept at avoiding pressure if a pass rusher happens to slip by an offensive lineman.

"Different quarterbacks do things differently," Castonzo said. "Andrew slides around a lot. He moves around and kind of makes me right no matter what I do from a blocking standpoint. He's able to move around real well."

Luck might have to be on the move a lot because he is playing behind an unproven offensive line. The Colts have three new starters on the right side in tackle Winston Justice, guard Mike McGlynn and center Samson Satele.

Castonzo is the linchpin.

"I think the line is coming together well," Castonzo said. "We are communicating really well. I think we're building something good."

Castonzo never got to block for Peyton Manning because Manning sat out all of Castonzo's rookie year. But like everyone around the Colts, Castonzo has been impressed with his new quarterback.

"He is a great leader," Castonzo said. "He's very even keeled which is great to have in a quarterback. He keeps his cool. After we went down 14-0 (to the Steelers) the other day, he comes back to the huddle confident, with a smile on his face. He's ready to get us pumped up and get us going. To get that leadership from a rookie is pretty awesome."

Now that Castonzo is a starter in the NFL, he no longer moonlights as a delivery man at his parents' Italian restaurant in Hawthorn Woods.

He said his father and mother sold the eatery so they could travel to all of his games.

Rookie Fleener ‘ready to roll’ with Colts Chicago Tribune Dan Pompei August 23, 2012

INDIANAPOLIS -- Andrew Luck isn’t the only high draft pick from Stanford going through his first NFL training camp with the Colts.

Luck’s college teammate Coby Fleener is in the same boat. Fleener, a Lemont native who went to Joliet Catholic, likely will be in the starting lineup for the Colts’ season opener against the Bears at Soldier Field.

“He’s coming along,” Colts general manager Ryan Grigson said of the 34th pick of the April draft. “He is a very gifted, gifted guy. When the lights come on, he’s ready to roll. There is a process to becoming a pro. Every day he is learning.”

Fleener came to the Colts with the reputation as a special receiving tight end who needed work on his blocking. The Colts have made it a point of emphasis that he improve his blocking.

"We know what his strengths are, but to be a complete player he has to become a better blocker,” Grigson said. “But the other things he has are things you can’t teach, and that’s why he’s here in the first place. The way to sum him up in a nutshell is to say he is a king- sized wide receiver who plays above the rim. But he also can become that and a well-rounded tight end. He’s working hard at it.”

Fleener had a decent block on a 1-yard Donald Brown touchdown run against the Steelers on Monday. He talked about being a “complete” tight end.

“You don’t want to just be a glorified wide receiver sitting on the end of the line,” Fleener said. There is a lot more to it than catching balls.”

Catching balls hasn’t always been easy for the rookie either. He uncharacteristically dropped a few in camp.

“It’s partially a lack of concentration,” he said. “It was one of those things where you need to focus on every catch before you start running upfield. It was frustrating to say the least, especially being looked at as one of the better receiving tight ends.”

Fleener said his biggest transition has been learning the playbook. It’s starting to click in, but he still has a lot to learn.

Figuring out the Colts offense quickly has been one of Luck’s strengths. Fleener has marveled at how his college teammate has been able to transfer what he has learned in the classroom to the field.

“It’s not just knowing his position, it’s understanding the things around him that affect his position,” he said.

Luck is doing more than feeding Fleener passes. He’s even driving him to work until Fleener gets a car.

Their relationship is a definite advantage for both of them.

"It’s an advantage in that we started with a pretty good sense of each other’s timing,” Fleener said. “Now our real advantage is knowing how to talk to each other to help each other understand as quickly as possible any changes that need to be made.”

Tom Zbikowski is a good fit for Indianapolis Colts Chicago Tribune Dan Pompei August 23, 2012

INDIANAPOLIS — Chuck Pagano coached Tom Zbikowski for four years in Baltimore, so when he had a chance to run his own team in Indianapolis, one of his first moves was to bring Zbikowski with him.

"He is invaluable because he played in the scheme," Pagano said of the safety. "He's another voice. He reinforces everything. Players take to other players. Here is what they are talking about. Sometimes they can put it into terms they understand better. They pound the message home. If there is any doubt, trust the system, play the technique, it will work out."

Zbikowski helps set the tone with the Colts that made the Ravens an AFC powerhouse.

"You are expected to play full tilt here every play," Zbikowski said.

Pagano said Zbikowski, who grew up in Arlington Heights and went to Buffalo Grove High School before playing collegiately at Notre Dame, earned the respect of his teammates by working hard in the offseason.

So now Zbikowski is the Colts' starting strong safety and one of the building blocks of Pagano's new regime.

In four years with the Ravens, Zbikowski played mostly on special teams and in defensive packages. He came into training camp last year with the inside track to start, but lost out to veteran .

In the previous offseason during the NFL lockout, Zbikowski had returned to his first love — boxing. He had three victories in , the MGM Hotel in Las Vegas and the Boardwalk Hotel in Atlantic City.

Zbikowski had a blast, but looking back on it he wasn't sure it was the best thing for his football career.

"It's not that I wasn't focused last offseason," he said. "But this offseason when I spent every waking minute thinking about this season, I understand I wasn't as focused then as I am now.

"It was a lesson learned. You need to step away from football sometimes, but I don't think your focus needs to be on another sport. Some of the best advice I got from (my father Ed): You have to miss football to be good at it because you have to be hungry. You do have to step back.

"But my focus wasn't where it should have been. I think I was riding a little too high from a couple of knockouts."

Still, Zbikowski has no regrets about his time in Baltimore. He said he enjoyed learning from seasoned pros like , , , , Derrick Mason and .

"As much as I didn't enjoy being in a backup role, it was an apprenticeship well served," he said. "And it was four years of not taking too much physical abuse."

Now he is ready to take his NFL career to the next level.

As was the case with the Ravens, Zbikowski feels he is surrounded by teammates who love to play the game and buy into the team concept.

For the time being, Zbikowski has put his boxing gloves in storage.

"Out of sight, out of mind," he said. "Every once in awhile I'll catch myself throwing some punches. It helps you keep loose. It's a good workout for cross training. I really wanted to spar, but I made a conscious decision to keep it at a distance. It's too addictive, get a little taste of it, then I get a little adrenalin rush."

Someday though, chances are very good he will return to the ring.

"I tell myself I won't," he said. "But I don't see myself staying away forever.

Brown, Colts, Aiming to Improve with a Little ‘Luck’ The Two River Times By Vincent Landolfi, Jr.

A new era dawned in Indianapolis last week with the start of the Colts 2012 training camp held at Anderson University in Anderson, Indiana. For the Hoosier faithful all across the state, the day had finally arrived when they would get to see, in action, their new general manager, head coach, and quarterback, who happened to be this year’s #1 overall pick in the NFL draft. With so much excitement in the air, you would really have to be paying attention to notice the running back now at the top of the team’s depth chart.

Donald Brown (RBC Class of 2005) is occupying that spot right now, and given the amount of effort and level of commitment it took to get there, he might be doing so until it is pried from his old, retired hands. And, per usual, the sincerity and humility that are a part of the Colt’s 2007 first-round pick’s persona is evident when he speaks from the heart.

“It doesn’t matter where I am on the depth chart. Always prepare like you’re the starter, and whatever opportunity comes – make the most of it. I’m very excited about this year.” Brown told me, standing in the end zone after coming off A.U.’s turf game field at the conclusion of the first morning’s walk through practice. “I am prepared for any possible situation for this season whether it’s getting a majority of carries or on special teams, whatever it may be I’ve prepared for it and I’m ready for it.” Many people agree. And some, like season-ticket holder, and Donald Brown fan James Stoots, from Plainfield, IN, think he is “set for a breakout year.”

One reason is because preparation has been a long suit in Mr. Brown’s repertoire going all the way back to his days as a schoolboy standout on the fields of the Shore Conference.

“He was the hardest worker I’ve ever seen,” said New England Patriots scout Frank Edgerly, then the head football coach at Red Bank Catholic H.S., Brown’s alma mater. “He out-lifted the strong guys, outran the speed guys, and was the first one ready to go again.”

Fast forward to the summer of 2012, where we find the former UConn star, not visiting his family and the beaches of his boyhood home at the Jersey Shore, but two states down in Terrapin country. Eschewing vacation, Donald decided to spend several weeks working out and honing his skills at The University of Maryland, where former Huskies Head Coach Randy Edsall is now the head coach. “Physically I feel like this is the best shape I’ve been in, in a very long time”, Brown said, as a result of his off-season activities.

Along with the Colts new regime, come many new players, a new system, and new playbook with new terminology. In order to have a successful season, general manager Ryan Grigson, head coach Chuck Pagano, and the entire staff must meld all of these components into one, harmonious unit. I asked Brown about the progress of this process.

“At the end of the day, every playbook’s the same; it’s the terminology that’s different. But this is probably the fifth time we’re hearing it with O.T.A.s (organized team activities) and mini-camps so we are a lot more comfortable with it right now.

“It’s definitely coming together,” he added. “We’ve been together since early April so guys are getting comfortable with one another and with the system.”

When asked about some particular plays offensive coordinator, Bruce Arians, has installed in order to ‘take advantage of his strengths, a smile came over #31’s face.

“I love the new system – some downhill, smash-mouth running; it’s what I’m comfortable with. I am excited to get running.”

Of course, on the first day of camp, the stallion’s share of the media and fan attention was directed at one of the new faces in Indianapolis, quarterback Andrew Luck. While the powers-that-be are trying to low-ball high expectations from being thrust upon the rookie’s shoulders, the fans’ excitement seemed to have spilled over onto the field, after his 27 for 32 passing performance on day one.

“He seems like a seasoned vet,” said Brown, when the fourth-year back was asked about his new signal caller. “He’s a student of the game, and really picking up the offense. He’s very cool, calm, and collected; a great leader. He’s done a phenomenal job, and he’s only going to get better.”

In the midst of all this newness, however, there remains a holdover from the previous Colts staff. Not so coincidentally, he is the man who had a lot to do with the resurgence of Indy’s running game at the end of last season, and Donald Brown’s career in the process.

“I’m very excited and glad to have Dave back,” said Brown, of running backs coach David Walker, the former Syracuse Orangemen two-time All-Big East runner. “He’s a phenomenal guy, and coach and he’s really helped elevate my game. I’m just very, very happy to have him back.”

Former RBC star Donnie Brown is at the top of the Indianapolis Colts’ depth chart at the running back position.

But even a new system, excellent coach, and what Brown calls “a great backfield, with guys that bring many different things to the table” (including second-year Syracuse alum Delone Carter, rookie Darren Evans, from Virginia Tech, and free-agent Mewelde Moore, to name a few), Brown knows that holes need to be opened in order for a running game to succeed. Fear not. Grigson and Pagano have anticipated and addressed this crucial team component in the draft and off-season signings.

“We have some big guys up front,” Brown told the media throng, alluding to the size of lineman such as 6’ 3” 300 lb. center Samson Satele, acquired from the Oakland Raiders, rookie Steven Baker at 6’ 8” 301 lb., and 6’ 7” 315 lb. tackle Anthony Castonzo. “There are some horses up there.”

So the horses are in the barn, and the table is set for the Colts’ upcoming 2012 NFL season. To what degree a rookie quarterback, managing an explosive passing game, and newly recharged running game, along with an attacking style defense, under a new regime, solidifies is anyone’s guess. Are there specific goals in place for this team to achieve?

“Just to get better everyday,” said Brown. “That’s our goal, that’s our mindset, every meeting, every walk-through, every practice. Just get better and take it one day at a time.”

It is not surprising, for those of us who have had the opportunity to listen to Donald Brown answer questions in the past, and hear him take the humble, pragmatic approach in his replies. Do not for one-minute make the mistake of thinking humble and desire are mutually exclusive. Lesser men would be on to their next career by now if presented with some of the obstacles Brown has encountered in his NFL life, including injuries to his ankle, shoulder, and torso, and a lack of playing time at the beginning of last season.

During some of these more difficult times, some of the sentiment surrounding Brown was that even if he never plays another down in the NFL, he owes no one anything. Here is a professional athlete who stands at only 5’ 10”, but is a legend at his high school and in his community, led the nation in rushing in college while earning his degree on a full scholarship, and has already made a very good living while providing us with some extremely memorable moments in the National Football League. But that scenario does not speak to the heart of Donald Brown. Look up the meaning of the name Donald, and you’ll know exactly what I mean. You see, right now he is occupying the spot at the top of the depth chart, and I think he likes the view from there

Colts camp report: Trust, patience key as new braintrust begins tough task By Pete Prisco | Senior NFL Columnist Aug. 10, 2012

ANDERSON, Ind. -- Who is Ryan Grigson?

When the Indianapolis Colts hired Grigson as general manager last winter, it surprised a lot of people and led many to ask that very question.

But it shouldn't have. This is a guy who is 100 percent football. He came up through the scouting ranks -- he was once player- personnel director for an Arena League team -- and a lot of scouts and personnel people I respect think highly of him.

"Grinder, loves it, works it, isn't afraid to state his opinion," one personnel man said of Grigson. "They made a good hire."

Time will tell, but if his first draft can be used as an indicator, I would say he's off to a good start. Not only did the Colts land quarterback Andrew Luck with the first pick in the draft -- OK, that was easy -- but they also got him two tight ends in Coby Fleener and Dwayne Allen to help rebuild the offense and a speedy receiver in T.Y. Hilton.

Grigson is spending this summer on the practice field, but he's also furiously studying other rosters. As the worst team in 2011, he has the first waiver claim on players, which is huge for a young team.

He is a big, former offensive tackle from Purdue who is quite a presence, which many of his former coworkers say helped him when he fought for a player in the past. Grigson isn't afraid to go off the grid, which is good. Hiring Chuck Pagano as head coach might not have been the sexiest choice, but the two seem to work well together and seem cut from the same cloth.

I like the fact that Grigson was willing to twist the knife a bit about me picking the Colts to go 1-15 -- the first coach, general manager, scout or player in any camp to do so.

That speaks volumes to me about a guy's inner core. He is competitive. I respect that, and told Grigson so. I like a fight. He does too.

Too many times we forget about the scouts as more and more bean counters take over running teams. It's about football eyes, not Moneyball-like approaches.

You might not know this 40-year-old who came up through scouting circles yet, but you should.

The Colts have the right guy.

Team Objectives • Bring together all the youth. This is a young roster with just seven players left from Tony Dungy's last team in 2008. With a rookie starter at QB, it puts a lot of pressure on veterans like Reggie Wayne to help keep this team focused at times when it may wane.

• Establish the physical style that Pagano wants. He comes from the Ravens, a team that used to beat up opponents with a bruising style and the run game. That means the Colts have to change their personality from the past decade, which was a pass-first team. Do they have the makeup to handle this change right away?

• Make a smooth transition to the 3-4 hybrid defense. The Colts are changing from their 4-3 defense to one that features more 3-4 looks. That means star pass rushers Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis will be doing more standing up as 3-4 outside linebackers, rather than 4-3 rush ends. Expect Freeney to play a lot like Terrell Suggs did for Pagano in Baltimore. That means he will mostly be going forward, rather than dropping into coverage. Mathis will drop more.

Camp Battles Starting cornerback: Jerraud Powers is solid on one side but the other spot is wide open. Justin King, a former Rams starter, and Cassius Vaughn, who came over from the Broncos, are the leaders right now. There's a good chance the Colts' starting corner could be on another roster right now. Look for a lot of activity when cuts are made. Projected winner: Vaughn. But he will be challenged.

Left guard: This looks to be a battle between Joe Reitz and Jeff Linkenbach. Reitz is the more athletic of the two, but Linkenbach is a mauler. This should be a camp-long battle, with Reitz seeming to have the early lead. Projected winner: Reitz. I think he might be the better option in the long run.

Third receiver: Wayne is the top guy and Austin Collie is No. 2. So who's third? It appears veteran Donnie Avery, whose career has been slowed by injuries, has the inside track. He did have a minor injury this week that isn't expected to keep him out long. Hilton might be in the mix, but he has been slowed much of the offseason with a leg injury and is just now rounding into shape. Projected winner: Avery. That's if he can stay healthy. Hilton might have the job later in the season.

Somebody to Watch Freeney has been one of the league's best outside rushers over the past nine years. But his play tailed off some in 2011 and he enters this season making the transition from down end to standup linebacker. But don't expect to see him dropping into coverage. This is a player who will still spend most of the game attacking the quarterback. "We know what he does best," Pagano said. At $15 million for this year, they better hope he gets there a lot.

Injury Roundup • G Ben Ijalana was lost for the season with a torn ACL. It was uncertain whether he would push for time in the rotation anyway. The book is that he might be a bust as a second-round pick in 2011.

• DT Josh Chapman. He is on the PUP list after having knee surgery last winter. He might spend the season on IR as a rookie. Watch for him down the road, though.

• Avery. He has been having a good camp, but if he misses time it could give some younger receivers a chance to make the team.

The Last Word Colts fans need to understand one word this season: Patience.

This is a work in progress, but in Grigson and Pagano they seem to have the right guys for the job. They are building through the draft and did a nice job in their first one.

In getting Luck, they have the most important piece. Now comes the task of getting the right people around him. It will take a year or two more, but it's sure nice to know you have the main piece in place.

As for this season, don't expect much. It's all about the future in Indianapolis -- one that looks bright with Luck.

Colts lineman, former HSE star Joe Reitz’s long road to the NFL By Zak Keefer Indianapolis Star Tribune August 8, 2012

Lionel Vital’s eyes stayed fixed on the center from Western Michigan, the kid who was too slow, fouled too often and couldn’t get a basket to drop.

But man, Vital thought, does he play hard.

The good news for the center: Vital was not scouring the Mid-American Conference basketball tournament for a future NBA lottery pick. A scout for the Baltimore Ravens, he was in town on vacation simply wanting to watch some basketball.

He left captivated by a new prospect, a Fishers, Ind., native named Joe Reitz.

A year later, after watching Reitz play again, Vital called his head coach, Steve Hawkins.

“You have a kid playing the wrong sport,” Vital told him. “I think your center has a future in the NFL.”

The road since has hardened Reitz, now an offensive lineman for the Indianapolis Colts, into an NFL anomaly: He doesn’t have college football on his resume.

He graduated from Western Michigan as the program's third-leading career scorer and rebounder. But for a 6-foot-7 center who had to play under the basket, the NBA was not an option. Playing professionally overseas, however, was virtually assured.

Reitz went for the NFL.

“I figured I had nothing to lose,” he says now. “Maybe I could make a career out of it, maybe I could play a year, maybe I get cut the first week.

“But I didn’t want to be 40 years old wondering to myself, ‘Could I have made it in the NFL?’”

One way to play

Reitz, 26, retraced his story at his Zionsville home a few weeks before training camp. He glanced at his wife, Jill, and their one-year- old daughter, Juliana. It took more than three years for him to see playing time in the NFL.

“There were definitely some hard days and long nights,” he says. “But I’m a big believer in God’s plan, and I know this is exactly where I’m supposed to be right now.”

His words are tinged with humility. He knows life in the NFL is fragile.

“I’m still chasing the dream,” he says. “It’s the toughest job market in the world. You have to go out and win a job and keep a job every day.”

It’s a lifetime, it seems, from his days at Hamilton Southeastern High School, where he was a two-way star in football and a hulking center in basketball. College coaches recruited him in both sports, but he settled on hoops, never figuring he could earn a living one day playing either one.

He started 126 games in four years at Western Michigan, branding his game with a brute physicality.

"Joe fouls people getting off the bus,” Hawkins joked. “He cannot play anything without being physical. He could probably breathe on a kid and move him three or four feet. It just so happened that was our brand of basketball, so he fit right in.”

Hawkins loves to retell the story of Reitz diving into the bleachers in a futile attempt to save a loose ball. Opposing coaches, Hawkins said, later used video of that play to motivate their players.

Reitz carried that mentality into his first NFL training camp, in 2008 with the Ravens. He needed it to survive while playing football for the first time since high school, studying a 100-page playbook, seeing fearsome linebacker Ray Lewis across the line of scrimmage.

“By far the most challenging thing I’ve ever done,” Reitz says.

Other college basketball players had landed successfully in the NFL without college football, including San Diego Pro Bowl tight end Antonio Gates, who played basketball at Kent State, another MAC school. Yet as much as Reitz fought it, doubt would creep in at times. There were sleepless nights, the seeming absurdity of it all crashing against him in ways a 300-pound defender never could.

“Sometimes in the middle of the grind,” Reitz says, “you don’t always see the light at the end of the tunnel.”

Jill, back in Kalamazoo finishing her senior year, offered long-distance support. They talked on the phone every night, often praying together for most of the call.

“It was really rough,” she remembers. “It was his first taste of the NFL and he’d never been through anything like that before. Sometimes, all I could do was listen.”

The long road home

Dreams of becoming the next Gates vanished quickly. Baltimore’s coaches were blunt: If Reitz had a future in the NFL, it was on the offensive line.

"About a week in, they told me to start eating, to start working on my blocking," Reitz recalls.

Gaining weight was never a problem. In college, he'd run three miles a day in the summers to keep his weight down for basketball.

"So putting weight on for me wasn't as hard as some people might have figured," he says.

But progress was slow. He spent two years on the Ravens’ practice squad, adding 70 pounds to his frame, living in the film room, heeding advice from veterans.

Reitz spent a third training camp with the team, in 2010, before being cut. Miami claimed him, then cut him three days later to make room for a kick-return specialist.

With his NFL dreams hanging by a thread, Reitz planned to return to Baltimore, where he’d battle for a spot on the practice squad. But there was no guarantee how long that would last.

Sitting in the Miami airport, he texted Hawkins.

“Coach,” he wrote, “I don’t know what I’m going to do.”

But before he boarded his flight, his phone buzzed. The Colts wanted him at practice the next day.

Reitz called his dad. “You’re never going to believe this ...” he began.

Said Dave Reitz, “By the end of our conversation, I had tears in my eyes. To get a chance to play, and play for your hometown team ... it was just the neatest two-minute phone call ever.”

Reitz spent 2010 on the Colts’ practice squad before earning a starting spot at tackle for last season’s opener. He remained with the starting unit for nine games before injuries hampered the rest of his rookie year.

Healthy and revived for a new season, he figures to play an important role as a young offense meshes with its rookie quarterback. He's currently listed as a back-up at left guard to Jeff Linkenbach but has spent most of this week practicing with the first unit at training camp in Anderson.

He’s a full-time football player now, content even if his journey ends tomorrow.

“I guess in a way I’ve been able to live out both my dreams,” Reitz said. “I got to play basketball for four years. Now I get to play football for a living.”

Said Jill: “I always believed something better would come along. I just never thought it would be this.”

Luck-to-Manning comparisons inevitable, but eerily correct- so far By Pete Prisco CBSSports.com August 6, 2012

ANDERSON, Ind. -- It hit me like a spiral between the eyes. I had been here before at Indianapolis Colts training camp, in the very same spot almost, talking passing game and quarterbacking only two years earlier, only with a different guy getting peppered with my questions.

Then, it was Peyton Manning in the spot, gracious, informative, a football junkie filling up a notebook.

This time, it was Andrew Luck, the man who will try to fill Manning's enormous shoes in Indianapolis. Like Manning, Luck was informative, easygoing, a pro's pro, acting far older than his years and nothing like a wide-eyed rookie.

The No. 18 jerseys that have been so prominent in these parts are now being replaced by No. 12, Luck's number, one that likely will grow to be special just like the quarterback before him.

It's eerie, really, how much Luck and Manning seem alike. Both are big, cerebral, smart, quarterbacks with former NFL passers as dads who seem to be made for the position.

Colts first-year coach Chuck Pagano, who came over from the Baltimore Ravens, sees the similarities as well. It hit him on the practice field last week.

"I was standing behind him [Luck], watching him," Pagano said. "His body language looked just like Peyton. He came to the line, gave the defense a false cadence, tried to get the defense to show its hand, which it did. He changed the protection. He talked to the wideouts, trying to get them in motion. He pointed out the hot sight adjusts and knew how much time was on the play clock. He took the snap from center, and, boom, went to the right spot. It was like watching Peyton orchestrate the whole thing."

Those comparisons are going to come. It's natural. This is a case of a potential can't-miss kid replacing the one who didn't.

Luck said he doesn't really think much about replacing Manning. It's there. But it's not important to him. Winning games. Getting better. That's the priority, not thinking about his predecessor all the time.

Problem is, we bring it up.

"As far as Peyton stuff goes, I don't pay too much attention to it," Luck said. "I would ask the question, too, if I were a bystander or a football fan. I completely understand it. I don't get personally vested in it. It's never one person's team."

Maybe not, but the Colts were close to that because of Manning. It can be argued that he saved the team in Indianapolis. Along the way, he won a Super Bowl and helped build a fancy new stadium, which attracted a Super Bowl to the city.

That's a tough act to follow. But the Colts have the right kid to try it.

Like Manning, Luck loves the game. Lives it. Breathes it. Watching his father Oliver helped prepare him for this moment. I joked with Andrew that he has been readying for this his entire life, being the son of a quarterback.

"I don't think I was thinking what I was doing in the backyard back then would one day help me with training camp," he said with a laugh.

But, much like Manning, he has been conditioned to be an NFL passer for a long time. It's in the genes. That doesn't mean there are shortcuts. Manning's work ethic is legendary. Luck is cut from the same cloth.

When asked about being a rookie leader, he gave a long, thought-out answer, something Manning also would do.

"The locker room has been very receptive, which is great as a young player to come into, I think, where you don't feel you have to force things and say certain things," he said. "I think, you know, everyone's very comfortable acting within their own personality, and that's something I try and never do, is force a speech or something outside of your personality or force being quiet or force yelling if you're a quiet guy, whatever that may be. As a quarterback, you know you're talking every play in the huddle, so you naturally assume some air of leadership, but it's a process. You've just got to build the trust, build the confidence."

It killed Luck that he couldn't take part in a lot of the Colts offseason work because his class at Stanford didn't graduate until later than most. NFL guidelines kept him away, but he put his nose in the playbook as much as he could and he went to Miami to work with veteran receiver Reggie Wayne on his own.

That's another Manning-like move. So what about the comparison, Reggie?

"You know, it's kind of hard for me to answer that question," he said. "I mean, Andrew's going to be good, he's going to be really good. He's really smart, he knows what's going on around him, he understands the concept, he understands the terminology. But I can't compare the two, that won't be fair. Like I said earlier, you've just got to sit back and see what happens."

There is no stopping it, though. And to see Luck work on the practice field only strengthens the argument that he is a lot like the man he is replacing. He sees it fast, has a nice release, throws a good, catchable ball and seems to have a real command of the offense.

Rookies aren't supposed to look like this. Only the special ones do, and the Colts seem to have another.

How lucky can one franchise get? They get one of the all-time greats for 14 years, and then when he's on his way out they happen to land the next great thing?

I won't say Luck is a can't-miss -- he doesn't like that much, by the way -- but I will say my initial reaction after talking to him and seeing him live is that he's darn close.

Indianapolis coach getting accustomed to new job Associated Press Mlive.com August 4, 2012

ANDERSON, Ind. (AP) — Colts coach Chuck Pagano is just trying to be himself.

He's resisting the urge to flip his baseball hat backward and sneak over to the defensive position drills as he's done for more than two decades.

This year he's handing off duties to assistant coaches, spending more time with the offense and the media, less at positional drills and tugging at the bill of his cap over his forehead. It's a big change for the 51-year-old who is finally running his own team.

"The hardest part is administrative. You're delegating, you're trying to get guys in practice in the right spots, make sure everything is working from an organizational standpoint," Pagano said. "At the same time, you want to get hands on. That's the biggest thing is you got to stay involved, and you want to stay close to coaching and teaching as best you can."

Of course, there will be times Pagano can get back to those basics.

On Friday, when safeties coach Roy Anderson left training camp at Anderson University because of a death in the family, it was Pagano who filled in as the position coach.

The Colorado native knows that cannot be the norm if he's going to make a successful transition from longtime assistant to first-time head coach. Some have made the jump seamlessly, and others excelled when given enough time. But the league is littered with assistants who have failed to make that jump, especially on their first attempt.

Pagano may wind up being one of the lucky ones.

Team owner Jim Irsay has spent much of the offseason pleading with fans for patience after presiding over the franchise's biggest housecleaning project in more than a decade. Besides hiring Pagano, Irsay brought in a first-time general manager (Ryan Grigson), oversaw the release of Peyton Manning, the hiring of new offensive and defensive coordinators, adding a new franchise quarterback and changing at least seven offensive starters.

That's the predicament Pagano walked into in Indy.

The longtime defensive guru is already attempting to put his stamp on the Colts (No. 32 in the AP Pro32) by bringing more balance to the offense and more aggressiveness to the defense.

Tony Dungy, who turned Tampa Bay from one of the league's worst franchises into a Super Bowl contender, believes Pagano is on the right path because he's sticking to his principles.

"(The key) really is probably just being resolute more than anything else," Dungy said after visiting Colts camp last weekend at Irsay's invitation. "You think it's going to go well, you believe you've got the answers, you really believe in what you're doing. I thought that too, and we started out 1-8 (at Tampa Bay). So whether you start out 8-1, or 1-8, you know what you want to get done. I just sense that from Coach Pagano; that he has a plan and he's not going to deviate from it."

Pagano understands.

His father, Sam, won 164 career games and three state titles as the head football coach at Fairview High School in Colorado. His brother, John, is now the San Diego Chargers defensive coordinator.

And growing up in a coaching family came with some hard lessons.

"It was a special deal, kind of like me when I was growing up watching him run the show for so long and all the things you learned along the way," Pagano said after his father watched Saturday's afternoon practice. "I had an opportunity, growing up, around what I think is the greatest team sport in the world."

Dad's advice: "Don't mess it up." By all accounts, Chuck Pagano is a player's coach.

Defensive lineman Cory Redding said when he and Pagano were in Baltimore, Pagano listened to the players' concerns and addressed any of them. It was one of the reasons Redding, defensive tackle Brandon McKinney and safety Tom Zbikowski left one of the league's top defenses to help rebuild the Colts.

So far, they've seen the same, old guy.

"I've seen him step back and let the coaches do their jobs," Redding said. "Every once in a while, you'll see him grab a ball, roll up his sleeves, put his hat on backwards and run some drills."

Those with longer ties to Pagano have detected a difference.

When receiver Reggie Wayne arrived at the University of Miami in the late 1990s, Pagano, the secondary and special teams coach, was loud, direct and demanding. While those traits still exist, Wayne said Pagano has a found a way to send messages a little less vocally to pro players.

"He's toned down totally. This is a different Chuck Pagano than the college days. At the same time he's still fun, he still loves the game, still loves to teach, still gets a kick out of guys improving and getting better each day," Wayne said. "That's always good. As long as he keeps that edge I'll take any Chuck Pagano any day."

Pagano's unassuming personality and folksy comments seem to be a perfect fit in Indy, too.

Irsay likes something else — player reaction.

Defensive players have embraced Pagano's motivational techniques and earthy approach to the game. Offensive players like seeing all those defensive looks, which is giving rookies such as Andrew Luck an opportunity to learn the ropes of NFL defenses before next weekend's preseason opener.

Irsay knows it's a combination that can work.

"I think that our players were always with Tony. Their great respect for him automatically gave him a lot of capital and a lot of credibility when he addressed things with them," Irsay said. "It's the same thing with Chuck. You talk to those guys in Baltimore, Ray Lewis and Ed Reed and those guys, the trust and the admiration that they have in Chuck was tremendous. That's something that they both have and bring into the room when they get with the players because a leader is followed a lot of the times from the heart and from the deep belief."

Pagano insists that part and his desire to win won't change.

What will? How he runs the team.

"I try to get around and show my presence, have my presence at all the individual drills," he said. "I'm going to gravitate to the defensive side just naturally. I've got to watch myself in that regard because that's my background, that's what I've done my whole life, my whole coaching career."

Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri takes ‘big game’ literally By Mike Chappell Indianapolis Star Tribune August 4, 2012

In the den of his home in Carmel, Adam Vinatieri is surrounded by antelope, a musk ox and a menacing grizzly bear on its haunches.

A warthog's head pokes out of a wall. The rugs? They came from a black bear and zebra.

To the Indianapolis Colts kicker, "big game" isn't just what happens on a football field. It relates to his passion: hunting, often in exotic global destinations, always with family and friends.

Vinatieri has hunted in Alaska, Africa, Argentina, Costa Rica, Canada's Northwest Territory and the Arctic tundra, not to mention prime sites in this country.

The animals that fill his den are taxidermal trophies, sure. But they're also memories, snapshots of a family tradition instilled in him as a child in South Dakota.

Most came from hunting trips Vinatieri took with his father Paul, brothers Chad and Beau, and brother-in-law Tony Erickson.

"Every one of them has a story or an experience behind it,'' Vinatieri said. "I remember who I was with, where I was. ... Each one of them has a special memory. It's kind of cool."

Vinatieri, 39, is entering his 17th NFL season, his seventh with the Colts. To football fans, he's known for his Super Bowl-winning field goals with the New England Patriots and as an instrumental part of the Colts' 2006 Super Bowl championship season.

But seeing Vinatieri in his den, it's clear how much he values his non-football trophies -- the African gazelle, the bison, the animals with less unfamiliar names: klipspringer, springbok, nilgai. One animal in particular carries special significance. It is a bushbuck, an African antelope, and Vinatieri can't even count it as one of his own kills. His cousin, Tony, bagged it along with four others several years ago.

But before the five animals arrived in the United States, Tony Vinatieri and his wife died in a plane crash. He and his family took one bushbuck each.

"When I look at mine," Vinatieri said, "I'm reminded of (Tony)."

Nilgai steaks

Vinatieri understands there are those who turn an angry eye at his collection and attraction to big-game hunting.

"I know there are people that think it's rude or crude or whatever,'' he said, slowly nodding his head. "But anything I can bring back, we eat."

Whenever the Vinatieris cook on the grill, including when neighbors visit, it's not your normal backyard menu.

"We've learned to like venison a lot -- one of our favorites,'' said Valerie, Adam's wife. "He just brought home nilgai."

That's an antelope indigenous to India that also can be found in Texas.

"We grilled up four nice nilgai steaks the other night,'' Adam said. "They were awesome."

Valerie agreed, but has her limits.

"I'll try anything once,'' she said, "but I'm a little skeptical of some of the stuff."

When it's not possible for Vinatieri to bring the meat home, it's given to the local base camps in southern Africa, Argentina or wherever that offseason's hunting took him. He notes that big-game hunting boosts local economies. Kolobe Safaris services South Africa, Mozambique, Namibia and Zimbabwe and offers packages that range from $2,050 (blesbuck, impala and warthog) to $75,700 (male lion, female lion, buffalo bull, hippo bull and sable).

"Everything has a price tag and a lot of people don't understand how that money goes right back into the economy there," Vinatieri said. "And we don't take the meat home ... it goes right back to the villagers. Nothing is wasted.

"I know people say, 'Oh, how can you (kill big-game animals)?' It's much more humane than stockyards and places like that. It's all organic and free-range stuff, and damn good eating."

It's also the Vinatieri way.

Paul introduced Adam, Chad and Beau to hunting, as his father had done with him. Paul once told The Indianapolis Star, "As soon as they were out of diapers, they were going hunting with my father and me."

"I'm a South Dakota kid," said Adam, born in Yankton. "I was born with a shotgun in my hand, chasing pheasant through the cornfields. My dad probably started taking me out when I was 4, 5 or 6 years old.

"I remember being so covered up with clothing, sitting in a duck blind, trying not to freeze my butt off. But I was out there with my dad. It doesn't get any better than that, trust me."

Family tradition

Now it's Adam's turn to pass along the love of the outdoors and hunting.

Nine-year-old son A.J. already has four or five trophies, ones he shot, in his bedroom. On a recent father-son trip to Lake Okeechobee in south Florida, A.J. used a crossbow to kill an 11-foot alligator.

"I had never done that,'' Adam said, shaking his head.

The gator is being processed and soon will find its final resting place on a floor in the Vinatieri household.

"That's an experience I'll remember all of my life and A.J. and I will talk about all of our lives,'' Adam said. "I can't wait till my youngest is old enough to go with us."

Gabriel, 2, is running around the house using a stick as a gun.

"Pow, pow, pow!'' Adam said, mimicking Gabriel. "He's getting the hang of it."

Six-year old daughter Allison recently recorded her first kill.

"She's not in love with hunting,'' Valerie said. "She likes the idea of wanting to be, but she's just a girlie girl."

Of herself, Valerie said, "I'm not a hunter. I didn't grow up in a family of hunters."

But she embraces Adam's need to be outdoors as much as his NFL career allows. Every big-game hunter has a "bucket list'' that consists of a big five: elephant, rhinoceros, buffalo, lion and leopard.

"I know I'm going to shoot a buffalo," Adam said. "I know I'm going to shoot a leopard."

He also wants to add to his collection a Lord Derby eland, the world's largest antelope, which roams the plains of central Africa.

"Eighty percent of the reason I love hunting is I get to spend time with the people I love,'' Adam said. "It's not so much, 'Hey, that's a pretty animal on the wall.' It's that it brings me back to a memory of a fun time I had with family and friends.

"It's a 3D postcard." Redding brings ‘big’ leadership to Colts By Reggie Hayes Ft. Wayne News Sentinel August 3, 2012

ANDERSON – Indianapolis Colts coach Chuck Pagano got right to the point with free agent Cory Redding.

“Cory,” Pagano said, “I need you.”

Simple words. Straightforward. Redding, who had spent two seasons playing for then defensive-coordinator Pagano with the Baltimore Ravens, recalls those words clearly many weeks later. It wasn't just the phrase, but the tone in Pagano's voice.

“When I heard that voice coming from him, and the sincerity in his voice, that made me (say), 'Forget all the others, I'm going with you Chuck,” Redding said Thursday. “I know how important it is to you, and it's important to me and I want to be part of that change.”

There's a good chance those words – “Cory, I need you” – might have been the most important ones uttered by Pagano during the offseason.

Redding could be the most important player on the Colts' defense, and perhaps in the locker room, during training camp at Anderson University and into the 2012 season.

When Pagano called Redding, he not only hired a defensive end/tackle, he hired a man who understands the 3-4 defense and who exudes leadership in all facets of the game.

Redding would not fit the category of quiet leader.

His persona is one of volume, and the perfect fit for a Colts defense, and team, seeking to crank up the intensity.

“Guys know who are the leaders in this league,” Redding said. “When I walked in the locker room, it was understood. It wasn't like I was walking in, cracking a whip and saying this is who I am. They accepted me because of who I am.

“People can fake it to a certain point, but after that, they can't do it,” Redding continued. “This is me all day, uncut, raw, I'm never going to change. Accept who I am or get behind me.”

Pagano helped recruit Redding, along with safety Tom Zbikowski and defensive tackle Brandon McKinney, because he needed an experience, confident leader for his defense.

Pagano knew he was inheriting some valuable defensive players in pass rushers Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis, linebacker Pat Angerer and defensive backs Antoine Bethea and Jerraud Powers. But the transition from a 4-3 scheme with the “Cover-2” emphasis to a 3-4 with more man-to-man secondary responsibilities will be a transition.

Redding is a big man up front (6-foot-4, 315 pounds), and has the potential to be a huge influence in the locker room.

“He's just an individual, a big man that's playing a big game,” Colts defensive coordinator Greg Manusky said. “And he's a big leader amongst the guys on the defense because he's been in the system, he knows what it is and he's pulling them all together.”

Redding is loud and “on” all the time. He contributed some heavy vocals during 11-on-11 situations in full pads Thursday, and the intensity kicked up a notch. There were even two slight fights. Redding wasn't directly involved, but he's bringing some Ravens style defensive swagger.

“I'm all about team and that's what this thing is all about,” Redding said. “That's what I'm preaching about Chuck to these guys. It's all about team. No one person is biger than the other.”

Asked what the defense might end up looking like, Redding rattled off the answer with what one reporter thought was an evangelist's fervor. “What you see out there every day – running around, flying to the rock, hitting guys, challenging every ball in the air, not letting the offense get a blade in the grass,” Redding said. “That's our mindset.

“…The canvas is not complete,” he said. “There's still a lot of room to grow. We're painting that brush every day.”

Redding said he can't stress enough the importance of being a good run defense first, then adding that pass rush to the mix.

“Pudding is pudding,” he said. “You can mix it up and put everything else in there – vanilla wafers, banana pudding – but it is what it is. It's stil pudding. That's the basis of this defense. You can't do anything unless you stop the run.”

If the Colts are going to grow into a defensive-oriented team, quite a swing from the past, then Pagano made a good call: Redding might be just what they needed.

Colts rookie QB Chandler Harnish anything but irrelevant to hometown Phil Richards IndyStar.com July 28, 2012

BLUFFTON, Ind. -- So how did your Indianapolis Colts rookie quarterback spend his final summer evenings before reporting to training camp?

In an Indiana cornfield with his girlfriend and family, picking 300 dozen ears of sweet corn in the steamy dark to earn a few extra bucks to see him through.

"My dad taught me everything I know," Chandler Harnish said, "especially hard work."

Harnish is the "other" quarterback. The Colts took Andrew Luck with the first pick of the draft. They harvested Harnish with the last; he's No. 253, "Mr. Irrelevant."

He's as Hoosier as they come.

"Harnish Homestead, 1868" proclaims the sign on the big white barn behind the family home. The barn's concrete floor has a glassy finish, the better to complement the basketball goal that hangs above it.

The Harnish's mailing address is Bluffton, pop. 9,929, but the family more closely identifies with Markle, Ossian, Craigville and the country folk scattered across the vast, flat farm fields southeast of Fort Wayne. That's how it is with outliers.

Harnish sits on the deck out back. A .22 caliber pump rifle rests at ready on the table before him. Cornfields wall in the homestead on three sides, and the Harnishes don't suffer varmints in them gladly.

Harnish had just returned from the 37th annual "Irrelevant Week," an exercise in lighthearted irreverence in Newport Beach, Calif. He was showered with gifts and honored with a parade, a visit to Disneyland and a banquet at which he was roasted and awarded the Lowsman Trophy, a clear play at contrast with the .

The Lowsman is a bronze football player fumbling a football.

The event got extensive coverage in the Bluffton News-Banner. Residents are still beaming. That was evident at the Wells County Courthouse, whose tall stone clock tower dominates downtown Bluffton.

"I think he'll probably give Luck a run for his money," gushed Geof Gilbert, a visitor to the courthouse who plays pickup basketball with Harnish's older brother, Mitch, 26, at the city gym down the street.

It was evident in a parking lot a mile up Main Street, where Harnish's sister, Carlee, 17, sold the sweet corn picked by the family the night before out of the back of a pickup truck.

"I'll be watching this fall," Ronda Thornton said as she handed Carlee $4 for a dozen ears. "I just know he's a great player."

Harnish is fully confident and fiercely competitive, but he has no illusions. He knows Luck is the man. Harnish wore No. 12 through high school and college. So who's going to get the number with the Colts, the first draft pick or the 253rd? Luck, of course.

Harnish is working to make the Colts' 53-man roster, to make Luck better. The eight-man practice squad is not an unlikely destination for him. Still, he is enjoying the ride.

"That's probably been the best part of the whole thing so far," he said, "the community excitement, family and friends kind of growing closer, being so close to home and being able to spend some time at home. "It's a smaller community. It's tightknit. Everybody knows everybody. I'm so proud to represent these people every day I put the uniform on."

When the Colts drafted Peyton Manning in 1998, Harnish was 10. He had to look no farther for a hero. He painted his bedroom walls Colts colors and papered them with Manning posters. While Manning was quarterbacking the Colts to the world championship during the 2006 season, Harnish was quarterbacking the Norwell High School Knights to a Class 3A state runner-up finish.

Harnish always has been underestimated. Ball State didn't recruit him. Indiana and Purdue looked but didn't offer. Harnish signed with Northern Illinois. He took the Huskies to four bowl games and as a senior last season was triggerman on their first Mid-American Conference title team in 28 years.

Only eight players exceeded Harnish's 328.2-yard total offense average in 2011. No quarterback topped his 106.3-yard rushing average and he was a 61.7 percent passer with 28 touchdowns and six interceptions.

Harnish earned his business degree with a 3.68 grade-point average and as a fifth-year senior completed half of his MBA requirements. He was one of 16 honored as National Football Foundation scholars and he won the foundation's mental toughness award.

The Colts know. Coach Chuck Pagano pronounced Harnish out for two to three weeks after he suffered a knee injury during organized team activities. Harnish missed a single practice.

"That shows his toughness, his perseverance, his resiliency," Pagano said. "He's a really tough kid."

He was a hungry 23-year-old kid as he sat alongside Tanya Rachan, his girlfriend of 3 1/2 years, at a table in The Corner Depot, a Bluffton eatery, one day last week, waiting for lunch.

"We struggled for a while with our relationship because Chandler didn't know what to put first: football, school or family," said Rachan, from Lowell, Ind., a four-year varsity gymnast at NIU who will start dental school at Southern Illinois this fall.

Rachan grinned at Harnish.

"It's roses now," he said, smiling back.

How else to explain a Sunday night date in a dark cornfield? Rachan drove the Bobcat. Chandler, Carlee, younger brother Piercen, 16, and their dad, Ron, a former Little All-American defensive tackle at Manchester College, heaped the Bobcat's front-end bucket full of sweet corn.

Back at The Corner Depot, lunch was served. Harnish inhaled a couple of chicken breasts. He finished Tanya's salad. He pushed away his plate. Time to go.

Carlee was down the street, still selling corn out of the pickup, now in blazing afternoon heat. It was Chandler's turn; time to relieve her.

Bob Kravitz gets Andrew Luck to open up on the beard, his Go phone and what he thinks of Indy By Bob Kravitz Indy Star June 26, 2012

So far, Andrew Luck has answered all the normal, boring questions:

How long will it take you to perfect your knowledge of the playbook? How does it feel to be stepping into the shoes of Peyton Manning? How much pressure do you feel as the No. 1 overall pick?

Blah blah blah.

Truth is, we don’t know much about Luck beyond the fact he was a model student athlete and a heck of a football player and wore a regrettable neck beard for stretches of his college career. I’m here to rectify that.

With help from my followers, who helped produce questions they’ve always wanted to ask Luck, I sat down with the Colts’ new franchise quarterback and peppered him with all kinds of nonsensical questions whose answers might help you get to know him a bit better:

OK, what’s the deal with the beard, which has grown back since the Stanford commencement in all its straggly, unkempt splendor?

“I realize it’s not a good look,’’ he said, laughing. “I know it’s not. It’s just laziness. People tell me to shave it all the time. A lot. Which is their right. I don’t mind. I’m actually going to shave the whole thing (Monday night), totally unrelated to this.’’

Will he have it when the season begins?

“Everything is subject to change, but I think I’ll have a couple of days’ growth before the first game,’’ he said. “You know, chafing, razor burn.’’

What was going on in the Stanford graduation photo? Based on what you were wearing under the gown – a sleeveless orange shirt – you looked like you were on your way to a NASCAR race. At least you shaved.

"I should give you a snippet on that,’’ he said. “We have a tradition at Stanford called the Wacky Walk where we dress up in costumes under our gown, so I had that shirt on with no sleeves. It was pretty tame compared to other costumes out there. I hope nobody got the impression I was disrespecting commencement. Then we get dressed up for graduation in our programs."

Now about that flip phone ... You realize everybody’s got a Smart Phone now. What’s an upwardly mobile person with Silicon Valley roots doing with a Samsung flip phone?

Before answering, he showed it to me. It’s a beauty.

“I paid $10 for it,’’ he said.

“I had a history growing up of sort of breaking them or losing them, so in my mind it was logical not to get a nice phone because I’d break it or spill water on it. If you really want to go deep, I think subconsciously it’s a way of getting away from the internet, social media and email. It’s a `go’ phone. You pay as you go, but I have a plan. I’m sophisticated enough to do that having been around Silicon Valley.’’

You don’t tweet. You don’t do anything with your Facebook page. Didn’t you go to school in the epicenter of social media?

“I’ve never really gotten into it,’’ he said. “I don’t know why. I wouldn’t call myself a Luddite; going to school there, I have a deep appreciation for technology, but I just choose to have a regular phone.’’

(A brief aside: It took 30 years in the business before I heard an athlete not only use the term “Luddite,’’ but use it correctly).

“I do have an iPad, though,’’ he said. “It’s the best travel companion you can have besides a person.’’

What’s on the iPad, besides the Colts playbook?

“The Kindle app, that’s my favorite,’’ he said. “Flipboard, that’s how I’ve started to consume my news. I have `Risk,’ the old board game. The usual banking apps so I can see my accounts. I have the MLS soccer app because my dad (Oliver) used to work for them. That’s one of the best sports apps I’ve come across.’’

What’s the quality you admire most in a person?

Very interesting question. Honesty. Definitely honesty.

And the one you most dislike, dishonesty?

I’d say that’s true.

What would you do if you could do anything for a free weekend?

"I couldn’t because the flight’s so long, but I’d love to go to Germany and watch a soccer game,’’ he said. “I haven’t been there for a long time (Luck spent some of his formative years in Germany). Or I’d go see my folks in Morgantown, West Virginia."

You’ve only been here a few weeks, but you’ve spent a lot of time with the other rookies learning the city. Any first impressions?

"Incredibly friendly people," he said. "Just sort of that Midwestern culture of friendliness. The city is clean, beautiful, and it’s easy to get around, which I appreciate after living in the Bay Area. Downtown is nice, lots of nice neighborhoods. I’m excited to learn more about it."

(An aside: He’s found a place he wants to live, but chose not to share that information – which is understandable).

A lot was written about your old Honda Accord you shared with your sister at Stanford. I know you haven’t signed a contract yet, but have you upgraded?

"I’m close. Maybe in the next few days. Either a Ford or a Chevy. I’m thinking a small SUV."

What’s on your iPod?

“Music,’’ he said.

Funny guy.

"Classic rock," he said. "(Bruce) Springsteen is my favorite. The Boss is number one in my mind. The Stones, U2, I’ve gotten into some alternative rock. Some country, some hip hop, but they’re not in my top 25 of most-played songs. I do have a lot of Springsteen."

You must answer this question correctly -- best Springsteen album.

“Well, I like 'Nebraska' because I like the song “Johnny 99,’" he said. "I think your generation, you grew up buying and listening to entire albums. Mine, we grew up with iTunes, so we like individual songs."

(For the record, the answer is "Darkness On The Edge of Town." I will not listen to any arguments to the contrary. I will also be buying Luck the CD so he knows what an epic album sounds like. Kids these days.)

Favorite books?

“I loved 'Papillon,' reading that when I was growing up,’’ Luck said. “I just read Steve Jobs biography; that was really interesting. I’d say historical fiction is my favorite genre. Bernard Cornwell, he’s written several books about King Arthur and the Holy Grail, the Saxons, the Viking invasion, the Napoleonic Wars. They’re about real events with made-up protagonists. Right now, though, I don’t have much time for reading.’’

What’s the best piece of life advice you’ve received?

The best was from my dad, to respect people and more often than not, they’ll return it in some form of fashion.

How comfortable are you with fame? At Stanford, you stood out, but that’s a school of high achievers where a football player isn’t that big a deal. How do you handle it now?

“It’s like a lot of things in life, you have to learn how to handle it, how your personality handles it. It’s something I struggled with my first few years at Stanford, and it wasn’t like a Big 12-, Big 10-, SEC- type of atmosphere. But the last few years I got a fair amount of it. I’ve come to realize it’s part of the game. And I wouldn’t trade my situation for anything. I won’t complain about it at all. If you can make a fan’s day, especially a child’s day, by signing something, that’s a good thing.’’

Who’s your favorite architect?

"A Japanese guy named Tadaeo Ando. (He used a) lot of concrete, simple lines, but very powerful. But I find myself drawn to stadium and arena architecture."

Have you thought about the mark you want to make philanthropically?

"I don’t think that’s something that’s an overnight thing, but I’ve always loved doing camps for kids,’’ he said. “And architecture. Habit for Humanity, Architecture for Humanity. Those are the things that immediately come to mind."

Can you act?

"No," he said with a laugh.

So we’ll never see you on 'Saturday Night Live'?

I would never say never, but I know I wouln’t be as good as Peyton and Eli.

What’s your most annoying personal habit?

"I’ve been told that sitting in car or in a lecture hall I like to spread my legs very wide and move them around, that seems to annoy people."

That’s the worst you can come up with?

"No," he said, smiling, "there are worse, but that’s the one I’m going to go with."

Favorite movies...

Again, I like historical fiction. 'Saving Private Ryan,' 'Gladiator,' great sort of war dramas. I just got around to seeing 'Legends of the Fall'; that was excellent. And I enjoy the comedies -- 'The Hangover', 'Animal House.'"

Favorite actors...

Russell Crowe and Tom Hanks. Especially Tom Hanks. He can do everything.

Favorite chick flick...

"You know what’s really good?" he said without hesitation. "'Love Actually.' I liked that a lot."

You’ve spent the last week or so exploring the city. Where have you been?

“We went to St. Elmo’s,’’ he said. “The shrimp cocktail is spicy, but they said it was kind of mild. The day we went, they said at this time of year, the radishes get mild. I’ve driven through downtown, walked around. Mostly, I’ve gotten to know West 56th Street.’’

Can you walk around downtown without being besieged?

“Yeah, I can,’’ he said. “It depends. Sometimes I can go a whole day and nobody will come up to me and other days, people will say hello. But they do it very discreetly, tell me `good luck,’ or, sort of under their breath, `You better live up to the hype. You have big shoes to fill.’” He laughed. “People have actually been very nice, very cool. They say it half jokingly; of course, there’s some truth behind it. But they’ve been very receptive, very kind. They’ve given me a lot of space to go around and discover the city on my own.’’

So there you have it, in all its disjointed and nonsensical glory. Stuff you now know about Andrew Luck. We’ll learn more these next 15 years or so. Frankly, he had me at Springsteen.

Andrew Luck fits perfectly into Colts’ new team-first culture By Albert Breer NFL.com June 15, 2012

INDIANAPOLIS -- Hundreds of fans, many already wearing the No. 12 jerseys that hit stores in late April, were waiting for autographs about 20 feet away. High above were the video boards that had shown his every move through a 150-minute practice. Near that hung the banners from two Super Bowl trips directed by the man Luck's succeeding, Peyton Manning.

You can't be a bigger star without taking a snap than Andrew Luck is right now.

The scrutiny couldn't be more intense. The spotlight couldn't be brighter. The stakes couldn't be higher.

And yet, easy as it can be to forget, Luck is a rookie. And if you think that's lost on him, ask him how he feels about being the most famous guy on the Indianapolis Colts roster, even though he doesn't turn 23 until September.

"We've still got Dwight Freeney and Reggie Wayne -- those are some pretty high-profile players," Luck said, carefully navigating a loaded question on carrying the team's highest profile. "I realize there's a certain notoriety that comes with playing the quarterback position, but that's all for naught if you can't produce on the field. So I approach every day like I'm fighting for a job, trying to get better and hopefully it all takes care of itself that way."

If they had a test for these things, Luck aced it with that answer, as if he was going through a checklist:

• Pay homage to teammates.

• Chalk fame up to outside forces.

• Emphasize how it doesn't matter if you don't perform.

And now you get an idea why GM Ryan Grigson and coach Chuck Pagano feel so comfortable putting their professional futures on the broad shoulders of the ex-Stanford star.

Ultimately, replacing Manning will boil down to just how good a player Luck becomes. Everyone knows that. But how he gets there will involve his ability to handle all the ancillary elements that go with being considered the best quarterback prospect in a generation, replacing the last guy to carry that tag (and one who delivered on all that promise), and serving as front man for a major organizational overhaul.

Nothing tangible has been accomplished in Indianapolis yet. But one thing Grigson does feel like he and Pagano have done is instill what the GM calls a "Team -- Small Me" culture that emphasizes the group over individual. And though it had been a fait accompli that Luck would wind up being the first overall pick, the Colts brass saw it as a pretty nice bonus that the obvious pick just so happened to embody their new ideals.

"Let's just say this: He is the genuine article," Grigson told NFL.com. "He's strong when he needs to be strong. He listens when he needs to listen. He's just a natural. Nothing's forced with him. He's not afraid to take charge of the huddle. But also, if a college free agent from who-knows-where asks him a question, I believe he'll take the time with that guy to explain it to him in a non-demeaning or condescending way, because he's Andrew Luck. He epitomizes the word 'team' to me."

That also means Luck knows his place now. On Tuesday, in his first full day with the vets, his new No. 1 receiver, Reggie Wayne, stared down the assembled media en route to practice and belted out, "Everybody's here to see my new quarterback!" Moments later, massive defensive lineman Cory Redding pointed at the press and yelled across the field to Luck, "Hey 12, they're all here, homes!"

But when work started, the laughter quieted. Luck can already make adjustments and checks at the line, and he spent considerable time attached to Wayne's hip on both days. He's well aware he's got a ways to go. Pro-ready as he is, as much as any quarterback has been since Manning, offensive coordinator Bruce Arians speaks a different football language than Luck did at Stanford. Terminology will be key, as will learning hot reads and sight adjustments, which he and rookie receiver Griff Whalen emphasized at Stanford the past five weeks, as both finished their degrees.

"I know it's terribly cliché, but (I have to improve) everywhere," Luck told NFL.com. "I always try to get better in all aspects and then just learning the offense and getting reps. Getting reps is so important and trying to get as many game-speed reps is sort of my main focus." Luck has time. He'll be with the other rookies at the Colts facility the next two weeks, playing catch-up after missing all but six days of the offseason program. He did get to see counterpart Robert Griffin III on TV, working with the Washington Redskins while he was unable to do the same with Colts.

"I'm happy for him that he got to be there," Luck said of Griffin. "It was frustrating in general not to be with the team. But I wasn't looking at it, 'Oh, this guy gets to be here and that guy gets to be there, why don't I get to be there?' I knew the situation I was in."

Opening Day is still almost three months away. And yet the Colts can already see the return on their investment coming. The fresh, proletariat ethos on 56th Street in Indianapolis has its standard-bearer. Because much as he might be anything but just another rookie, Luck certainly is doing his best to play the part of one.

"He fits like a glove because he is not a 'me' guy," Grigson said. "He is all about the team. You can go back to Stanford, his early days just starting and being a young guy there. You're not going to see a difference here. That's who he is. He's not trying to be someone he's not. He's out here to win and to improve every day. He has things to learn, he hasn't seen a different color jersey yet. But he understands it as well. He knows Rome wasn't built in a day."

After Wednesday's practice at the stadium, Freeney, now the third-most tenured Colt, laughed when it was posed to him that the quarterback wouldn't be getting special treatment from the vets when the time comes for rookies to stand on tables and sing songs. "Exactly," Freeney said. "It'll be me doing it to him."

But there's another, more serious message Freeney will send his new teammate, too, after spending the past decade as part of Indianapolis' Manning Show.

"You know what? We're gonna let him know, he doesn't have to do anything extra," Freeney said. "It's going to be hard, because everybody has all these expectations for him. As long as you go out there and do your job and control the huddle, that's all that you can do. And if things happen to progress and take off from there, so be it. But it has to start somewhere. 'Don't feel like you have to take on the world.' "

It's easy to see that Luck's employing that approach already. Ready to take on the world? Maybe not. But judging by his early days in Indy, Luck's uniquely prepared for just about anything it throws at him.

Colts general manager Ryan Grigson keeps digging for talent By Phil Richards Indy Star June 12, 2012

General manager Ryan Grigson faced a daunting challenge this offseason. Nearly one-third of the Indianapolis Colts salary cap is tied up in "dead" money, prorated bonuses not yet counted against the cap but paid to players such as Peyton Manning, Dallas Clark, Gary Brackett and Joseph Addai who are no longer with the team.

Grigson couldn't go about rebuilding the Colts by spending. He had to go about it by digging.

"I feel like digging is one of my strong suits, digging and not caring what anybody else thinks or what the perception is," said Grigson, whose team this morning begins a three-day minicamp in which quarterback Andrew Luck will participate, whether or not he is signed.

Grigson desperately needed a right tackle, a cheap one. He dug up Winston Justice, a Philadelphia Eagles spare part, but one Grigson knew; as the Eagles' director of college scouting, he drafted Justice in 2006.

Grigson operates with what he calls "eye confidence." He believes he knows what he's looking at and he trusts what he sees. Videotape is truth. He stuck in tape of the lone game Justice started last season, against Washington.

"From the very first pass set, for what's out there, for what I had to spend, for what I'm going to actually get, I see a big, long, monstrous guy that has rare athletic ability and he's busting his butt," Grigson said.

Grigson got Justice (6-6, 317), a 47-game starter, along with the Eagles' pick in the sixth round of the draft, for the Colts' No. 2 selection in the same round.

A few days later, Denver traded quarterback Tim Tebow to the New York Jets. That made Drew Stanton, the Jets backup, expendable. Grigson was watching. He needed a backup. He got Stanton and the Jets' seventh-round pick for the sixth-round pick the Colts had received from the Eagles.

The Colts didn't even have to pay Stanton the $500,000 signing bonus his contract dictated. The Jets paid it for them.

By trading down 30 spots from their original sixth-round position, the Colts had acquired a starting right tackle, a veteran backup quarterback and kept their draft pick. Grigson used it on draft day to grab Tim Fugger, an outside linebacker who backs up Dwight Freeney.

If you want an early take on Grigson, 40, and a first-time GM, it's this: He doesn't sit still, and he has a feel for a deal. When he's not digging, he's not idling.

"You troll," he said. "It's like casting a thousand times. Finally, you get a little bite and you set the hook."

The Colts are desperately in need of help at cornerback. Grigson knew the Denver Broncos were awash in them because it's his job to know. The Broncos had and signed free agents and . They also had Cassius Vaughn, , Syd'Quan Thompson and draftee .

So Grigson baited up and trolled. The Broncos bit. They got Chris Gronkowski, a tough, competent fullback the Colts didn't need. The position doesn't figure in Bruce Arians' offense; Ryan Mahaffey, the only other fullback on the roster, was cut a few days later.

The Colts got Vaughn for nothing. He figures to be in the mix at corner, on special teams and in the return game.

No wonder owner Jim Irsay tweeted: "GM Grigs still tweaking roster, he's a deal maker who looks 4 hidden gems."

They have yet to prove gem-quality, but Grigson also snatched a pair of inexpensive free agents.

Wide receiver Donnie Avery has been one of the bright spots of the Colts' offseason program and organized team activities. He brings exceptional speed.

Guard Mike McGlynn has moved into the right guard slot in the lineup and into the leadership void left by the departure of free agent center Jeff Saturday in the O-line meeting room.

Both Avery and McGlynn will make veterans minimum this season. They represent little risk and the potential for considerable reward. "I figured I'd just grind and grind and grind and out-scout people," Grigson shrugged. "That's what you have to do when you're strapped."

There's another area in which Grigson has made a quick impact on the cheap. They say speed kills. What they mean in the NFL is speed wins.

Avery is a flyer. So are receivers T.Y. Hilton and LaVon Brazill, Colts picks in the third and sixth rounds. Second-round pick Coby Fleener has elite tight end speed. Vaughn and free agent signee Justin King, another cornerback, are bullet fast.

"Speed is an extreme priority," Grigson said. "You either have it or you don't and the guys that don't usually wash out unless they do something exceptionally well. . . .

"At the end of the day you want people to be fast but also to play fast, and those guys play fast."

The Colts are rebuilding. They're coming off a 2-14 season burdened by the oppressive heft of all that dead money. No matter; the guy in charge isn't sitting still.

It will be interesting to see what he does next year, when ESPN projects he will have some real wherewithal, $43 million in cap space, the most in the NFL.

Freeney all-in despite uncertain future By Alex Marvez FoxSports.com May 6, 2012

Indianapolis Colts outside linebacker Dwight Freeney says he’s more Magic Johnson than LeBron James.

But whether one of the NFL’s top all-time pass rushers gets to finish his football career with the same team that drafted him is hardly a slam dunk.

After 10 seasons with the Indianapolis Colts, Freeney has no interest in taking his athletic talents elsewhere, as James did when he bolted the Cleveland Cavaliers to sign with the Miami Heat. Freeney, though, knows his days in Indianapolis may be numbered.

The Colts are adopting a new defensive system, and Freeney’s lucrative contract expires at the end of the 2012 season. This raises the possibility of a trade, even though team management has stuck with Freeney during the early stages of retooling the roster.

Asked about his Colts future during a Tuesday night interview with me and co-host Bill Polian on Sirius XM NFL Radio, Freeney said: “I’m kind of old-school when it comes to that thought. I’m not LeBron trying to leave the team. I’m more like the era of Magic and (New York Giants linebacker) Lawrence Taylor, who stayed with that same team for their entire careers win, lose or draw. They were married to the city they were drafted in. You go through the tough times and great times with them, and that’s it. That’s what I’m looking forward to.

“You don’t know what’s going to happen. I can get traded. They may want to go in a different direction. Maybe I can’t handle the (defensive) scheme. You have all those possibilities. But, personally, I would love to stay.”

The Colts’ decision to keep Freeney is somewhat surprising considering the change in defense and how many other veterans the club released this offseason. The bloodletting included plenty of Freeney’s contemporaries, including quarterback Peyton Manning. The 32-year-old Freeney also is due to collect a $14 million base salary in the final year of his contract.

Freeney said he still hasn’t adjusted to all the new faces the Colts have added.

“I feel like I’m in a whole other dimension,” a laughing Freeney said. “I’m used to walking in the locker room and there’s Peyton’s locker to the right and all these other guys who were there. Now, it’s like everything has shifted around.

“I got lost in the locker room today. They built a locker right where I always walk to get my laundry clothes. I almost walked into the locker. It’s completely different. But I do understand what this game is. Things have to change eventually. It’s never the same team (annually), regardless of whether it’s four or five guys or 20. That’s the nature of the beast, especially when you don’t win.”

A 2-14 record in 2011 was the impetus for a massive Colts overhaul that included the firing of Polian as team president and Jim Caldwell as head coach. Caldwell’s replacement, Chuck Pagano, is installing the same style of 3-4 scheme that he ran last season as the Baltimore Ravens' defensive coordinator. Freeney and Robert Mathis will shift from being traditional 4-3 defensive ends to outside linebackers aligned in various spots, with occasional coverage responsibilities.

Freeney is in the early stages of that transition with the Colts having opened their offseason program last month.

“For me, it’s just getting familiar with all those nuances,” said Freeney, whose 102.5 career sacks rank behind only Atlanta’s John Abraham (112) and Minnesota’s Jared Allen (105) among active players. “My line of sight, walking around (pre-snap), dropping into coverage — I’m doing those things. It’s going to take a little time at the beginning to get used to and as comfortable as I have been having my hand in the ground (at end) and being in one position.”

Freeney hopes those efforts ultimately pay dividends by making it more difficult for opposing offenses to game plan against him. Polian said Freeney and Mathis were recipients of double-teams on 83 percent of the Colts’ offensive snaps over the past couple of seasons.

“This is probably going to benefit me because I’m not in a ‘blackboard position’ where (offenses) know exactly where I am and what we’re going to do,” said Freeney, who was selected by Polian as a 2002 first-round draft choice because he fit the profile of an ideal speed rusher in a “Tampa-two” defense.

“We’re going to be coming with various blitzes from different sides. I’ll be moving around, so I’ll be harder to find.”

Freeney won’t be stealth when it comes to helping the Colts compensate for the leadership lost when Manning was released. Pagano told FOXSports.com in March that he considers Freeney, Mathis and 12-year wide receiver Reggie Wayne the “three pillars” of the team’s locker room.

“It’s, obviously, very tough to fill in all the things that Peyton did,” Freeney said. “We all know the on-the-field, but there was a lot of leadership stuff off the field. Just making sure everybody was on the same page and being a presence in the offseason to make sure you’re around and the younger guys see that you’re working hard and it’s OK to do that.

“Those are the intangibles that people don’t know that Peyton was great at. Those were some of the things we loved him for. Obviously, with him leaving, it creates that void. It’s really going to take all of us (veterans) to fill that void and try to groom these young guys so they understand what Colt ball is all about.”

Helping the Colts get back on track is another one of Freeney’s biggest goals — even if he might not still be there by the time that foundation is done being laid.

“Yeah, we lost a lot of guys, but we’re not laying down for anybody,” he said. “Everybody likes to throw around this ‘rebuilding.’ For us, we’re going out like it’s 2005, ’06, ’07 and ’08. We’re going to give everybody our best. That’s what we do.”

Antoine Bethea returns to where it all started at Denbigh By Norm Wood Daily Press May 6, 2012

NEWPORT NEWS – Nothing seemed out of place to Antoine Bethea as he walked the same halls at Denbigh High he used to cruise a decade ago, and ran around on the same practice field he and his teammates used to refer to as "the pit."

He's now a two-time Pro Bowl safety in the National Football League with the Indianapolis Colts, and the owner of a Super Bowl ring, but on Saturday, Bethea had the opportunity to give a little of his time to about 215 kids at his second annual football camp at Denbigh.

"I was walking around the school reminiscing a little bit," said Bethea, who during his rookie season in 2006 was a member of the Super Bowl-winning Colts, and who made it to the Pro Bowl in the '07 and '09 seasons. "It's all fun, but it just makes me think about how I was a lot like these kids back then."

Bethea worked with the 8-to-14-year-old kids on fundamentals and drills, and spoke to them about the importance of getting an education. He was joined by several camp counselors that included , a former Heritage High standout and Virginia linebacker who now plays for the Oakland Raiders.

"The kids and even the parents will walk away from this camp with smiles on their faces," Bethea said. "Maybe they won't remember the camp, but hopefully the ones that do remember the camp will remember…what I talked about – hard work and dedication. I know they'll get something out of it."

Though he signed a four-year contract extension in '10 with the Colts worth $27 million, Bethea isn't the kind to take it for granted. Perhaps his attitude has something to do with the unlikely path he took to the NFL.

"I'm trying to conserve that money as much as possible," Bethea said. "Life after football is going to be a lot longer than the time I'm playing in the league."

Coming out of Denbigh, he wasn't an elite recruit, spurning opportunities to play at Norfolk State, Christopher Newport or Randolph- Macon to accept a football scholarship to Howard.

He was good enough at Howard to draw attention from some NFL teams, but again, he wasn't seen as a hot commodity.

Indianapolis drafted him in the sixth round. It didn't take him long to make an impression. He started 14 games as a rookie, and has been a regular starter every since, collecting 595 career tackles and 12 interceptions.

"I still think I have a lot to prove," Bethea said. "I still consider myself the underdog. When people talk about the best safeties, I want them to mention my name. All the time, that doesn't happen, so that still means I have some learning to do, some growing to do."

When he gets back on the field this season with Indianapolis, which tied for the worst record in NFL last season at 2-14, it'll be with a much different team that will be led by first-year coach Chuck Pagano. The most obvious change will be at quarterback without No. 18.

After 13 years as Indianapolis' starter, including 11 Pro Bowl seasons, neck surgery kept Peyton Manning off the field last season. He was released in March and signed with the Denver Broncos. Now, Indianapolis heads into this fall with No. 1 overall draft pick Andrew Luck as its quarterback.

"It's going to be different (without Manning)," Bethea said. "It's a change I don't think anybody expected at the start of last season. Then again, it just goes to show you the business side of it. Sometimes change is good. We've yet to see that, but I believe with the new regime we have around the facility, there's a very good spirit.

"I'm not going to say it's refreshing, because a lot of the people that brought me in are gone. It's not a good thing to see, and a lot of my boys are gone, but we have new coaches that are going to teach us new things. That's going to make me a better player."

Andrew Luck – like father, like son By Elizabeth Merrill ESPN.com April 26, 2012

WHEELING, W.Va. -- On the last Interstate 70 stop before West Virginia mountains give way to Ohio green, a tall man with perfectly swept hair works the White Palace ballroom. He is charming, almost presidential, which is good because this is a heavy- hitter crowd. The governor of the great state of West Virginia is here, as well as a roomful of bankers, lawyers and schmoozers. A prayer is said before their supper of sautéed chicken and green beans, and cocktails are poured in plastic cups.

They have gathered on this late-April night to see Oliver Luck, a man whose bio in the Wheeling Chamber of Commerce dinner program fills an entire single-spaced page. Luck is all over the West Virginia map these days, dining with Boy Scouts and rubbing elbows with Rotarians, because this is what the athletic director for West Virginia University does in the springtime.

He does not rattle off his résumé, which sounds as if it could be a "world's most interesting man" script. Former NFL quarterback. Rhodes Scholar finalist. World traveler. Former president and CEO of NFL Europe. Ran a Major League Soccer team that won a couple of championships. Oh, and he has a law degree, which he picked up taking night classes while in the NFL. But Luck taught his kids to be humble, which is why you'll hear very little about any of this tonight.

He steps to the center of the stage to give his speech about West Virginia athletics, and breaks code a bit, probably to break the ice.

"You know," Luck says as he grabs the microphone, "there's a whole page here dedicated to my bio. And if you go on Wikipedia right now, what you'll see under my name is simply, 'Andrew's dad.'"

The crowd laughs.

"That's who I've become, and I'm very proud of it."

On Thursday night in , in one of the most anticlimactic starts to an NFL draft, the Indianapolis Colts will select Andrew Luck as the No. 1 pick. And the professional career of the most hyped quarterback since Peyton Manning will begin. What can you say about this 22-year-old? That Oliver Luck's oldest boy has seemingly zero flaws, that he is so polished he would've been No. 1 in the 2011 draft, that he is so good his arrival has jolted the quarterback landscape in three NFL cities?

Oliver can wax on about the Big 12, coal mining and West Virginia's economy, but generally, he holds off on saying much about his son. Hyperbole is not the Lucks' thing. He will recognize that this is a big deal. The Lucks are about to become just the seventh known father-son quarterback combination in the NFL, following a distinguished group that includes the Manning family. For years, analysts have broken down the genetic success of Archie, Peyton and Eli, comparing arms, speed and size. But most of the time, a father's influence goes way deeper than any kind of metrics.

Oliver Luck's influence is somewhat intangible. It's there in the huddle where, no matter the situation, Andrew is seemingly unflappable. It's the reason Oliver's son, an All-American at Stanford who is about to get his degree in architectural design, is so well- prepared and grounded.

The elder Luck, of course, wants nothing to do with any chip-off-the-old-block conversations. Talk to his mother, Luck says, because Kathy plays just as big of a role in the making of Andrew Luck.

A few days after the grip-and-grin in Wheeling, as Oliver is driving to Charleston, W.Va., he says he's talked to Kathy -- and sorry, she has politely declined to be interviewed. She likes being in the background.

"Have you ever heard of the book 'Freakonomics'?" Oliver says. "So there's these two economics professors, and they're really interesting guys, and they wrote these books. And it's really all about sort of false thinking. They try to go in and look at a number of different phenomenon. Does A really cause B? You know, causation.

"They wrote a chapter in the book about major league baseball players. What characteristics at what age would be an indicator that the kid is really going to make it to the major leagues? Is it when they were born? … Is it size?"

At the end of the chapter, he says, the authors tell the reader that none of these factors comes close to the only important one, which is having a father who also played major league baseball. So maybe it's just in the genes.

Luck is a voracious reader, by the way. He has no problem talking about that. Oliver is currently tackling a book on the history of Spain. He's read it before. In the hundreds of interviews Andrew has done since arriving at Stanford, he is occasionally asked about his favorite thing to do besides football. His answer is usually the same.

Reading, he says.

The origins of Andrew Andrew Austen Luck was born Sept. 12, 1989, in Washington D.C., the first of many addresses for a son born to two lawyers. There was a "" game on the night father, mother and soon-to-be son were in the hospital, and Oliver recalls at some point looking up to catch the score. He says he's fairly certain that former West Virginia quarterback was playing that night, but you'd have to check to make sure. Of course he's right.

The couple went on to have four kids -- their daughter, Mary Ellen, plays volleyball for Stanford -- so it's fuzzy as to who first put a football in Andrew's hands. It didn't really matter.

"My wife and I didn't raise our kids to be anything except what each one ultimately wants to do," Oliver says. "I can't imagine raising a child with a goal of that child being a baseball player or a lawyer or whatever. Odds are, they'll be something else. In this world, there are a lot of opportunities."

Oliver Luck did not possess the physical gifts of his 6-foot-4, 234-pound son. He was a tall and skinny quarterback from St. Ignatius High School in Cleveland who went to West Virginia because he fell in love with the school and community. The scouting report on Luck went something like this: smart, talented, good arm, not-so-good runner. But tough. If Luck threw an interception -- he didn't throw many -- he didn't float backward and get out of the way. He went after the guy running with the ball.

His first two years with the Mountaineers yielded back-to-back losing seasons. It wasn't for lack of effort. Luck stayed in Morgantown every summer, training with his teammates while working eight hours a day doing odd jobs at a coal mine.

In 1980, the Mountaineers' fortunes changed when Don Nehlen took over as head coach. Nehlen was not overwhelmed with confidence when he met Ollie Luck.

"When I first looked at him," Nehlen says, "he had that big Adam's apple and that big nose and skinny shoulders. And I'm saying, 'Oh my gosh.' I told my wife, 'Don't unpack.'

"But Ollie had it all. He gave us the ability to be a pretty good football team. Believe it or not, we won six games that first year and nine the second. If we don't have Oliver Luck, we don't win. He's one of those guys the kids really rally around. He made the other 10 better than they really were. And all the great quarterbacks do that."

Oliver Luck's draft day was far less heralded than his son's. He was selected in the second round by the Houston Oilers, after and Jim McMahon. He did not play his rookie year, then was inserted as a starter during a disastrous 2-14 campaign in 1983. Luck threw eight touchdowns and 13 interceptions that year. And the following season, the Oilers signed from the .

Luck spent the better part of the next three seasons carrying a clipboard behind a future Hall of Famer. But Luck was still competitive while helping Moon in whatever way he could.

"He always had a smile on his face," Moon says. "He was one of the smarter guys that I've been around at quarterback. He was so well-rounded. He knew different languages. Some guys come off as smug because they're intelligent and think they're more intelligent than everybody else. But he was never that way. The guy had such an easygoing personality that you would never know that side of him unless you really got into an in-depth conversation with him."

After his fifth season, Luck sized up his situation, realized he wasn't going to play much, and decided to call it quits. He was 26 years old. It was different back then, he says. The desire to hang on wasn't necessarily there. Luck could walk into a law firm and make nearly as much as he did as an NFL backup.

Most important, he could still walk. Asked if he regrets leaving the game so early, he says "no" three times in rapid-fire succession. His kids wouldn't get the chance to see him play, but that didn't matter. Luck had a lot to do.

The cultural influence There was the failed bid for Congress in 1990, when Andrew was just a baby, and a job in Germany as general manager of the Frankfurt Galaxy in the fledgling World League of American Football. Luck dabbled in just about everything, and he spent more than a decade overseas running football teams and eventually becoming president and CEO of NFL Europe.

The jobs were nice, but the Lucks loved the opportunity to pile their kids in a car and take them from Frankfurt to the Eiffel Tower in five hours. They'd ride on the autobahn and be fluent in German, English and whatever else they wanted.

"There's a whole body of literature on the culture of kids," Luck says, "kids who grew up outside of their home culture. I don't want to necessarily summarize all the literature, but ultimately, I think [those] kids are a little bit more tolerant because they can see there are different ways of living.

"I think they're a little more inquisitive. And they get exposure to some things that make them think a little more about different places, different cultures and different languages."

The exposure has helped Andrew Luck in many ways. For starters, he played soccer as a boy, which no doubt helped his footwork. He saw beautiful stadiums and wanted to become an architect. When the world became smaller for young Andrew, nothing seemed too big.

"He walked on campus different," says David Shaw, his college coach at Stanford. "A lot of times, even our best players and our best students still have a transitional period. And there was never a transitional period for Andrew.

"Being as well-traveled as he is, he doesn't just have his immediate surroundings as his only context to life. He doesn't approach the world with blinders on. He doesn't get fazed. He's seen a lot, and he's been through a lot."

Learning the game Oliver Luck jokes that his long list of titles just means that he was never able to hold on to a job for very long. The family moved back to the U.S. in 2001, when he was named CEO of the Houston Sports Authority. It was a chance to get back to Texas, and an opportunity for his son to test his chops in the biggest football state in the country.

Much like his dad, young Andrew did not wow anyone at first sight. "He was a 14-year-old kid," says Stratford High coach Eliot Allen. "He wasn't the guy you see now. But I think you saw then the kind of person he was."

The younger Luck was smart and polite and made 10 guys look better. His father did not show up at practice, Allen says. He didn't talk X's and O's with his son. He wanted him to learn and grow from his coaches.

So Andrew did, and threw for 7,139 yards and 53 touchdowns at Stratford. He was co-valedictorian for the Class of '08. Oliver taught Andrew about leadership and being mentally strong, Allen says.

"And don't forget his mother," Allen says. "She's pretty influential, too. We'll never hear about her because she's behind the scenes. But she has her law degree."

Kathy, according to John Hardesty, one of Oliver's close friends, is a quiet, strong and smart woman. She holds the family together. When Oliver took the West Virginia athletic director job in 2010, he was living in a small condo in Morgantown while his family finished business in Houston. He'd catch red-eye flights to Houston and Stanford to watch Andrew play.

They made sacrifices but have rarely had regrets. One Saturday last year, when West Virginia had a late game and Andrew was playing on the West Coast, Oliver sat in his office, in the dark, trying to find the game on the Internet.

"Here's a guy, his son's the Heisman Trophy candidate, and he and I are watching the game, 11:30 at night on the computer in his office," says John Garcia, an old college teammate of Oliver's. "Here we are watching it in the dark because he can't get to the game.

"People don't know the commitment that he's made. I think that says something about him."

The expectations There is significance to Oliver Luck's stop in Wheeling the week before the draft. Because it is right off the interstate, on the way to Indianapolis, he'll be driving by it a lot. He tells the crowd that he plans to buzz by here during the fall for the next 15 years. He believes his kid could have that kind of staying power.

Colts owner Jim Irsay must believe it, too.

Andrew will shrug and say that it does not put any extra pressure on him, and pops will reaffirm that. Every player on an NFL roster is under pressure, Oliver says. He can probably substantiate that with the help of some book he's read.

So no, Oliver Luck is not worried about his son living up to these rare expectations. He will celebrate with him in New York, then go back to work in West Virginia. He knows Andrew will be fine, and that his football dream will last longer than his dad's. In the offseason, in sort of a full circle moment, Warren Moon worked with Andrew.

"The kid doesn't have any weaknesses," Moon said. It reminded Moon, in many ways, of Oliver. Maturity, background will help Luck By Bob Glauber New York Daily News April 23, 2012

Living up to the legacy of Peyton Manning would be difficult enough for most quarterbacks, but Andrew Luck just might be different. After all, he already has emerged from the shadow of a big-time quarterback: his own father.

Growing up as the son of former West Virginia star and Oilers backup Oliver Luck presented its own set of challenges, but Andrew had no problem developing into a star in his own right. His background surely will come in handy now that he's ready to handle an even more daunting task: replacing future Hall of Famer Manning, who was released last month to set the stage for Luck's arrival.

"Peyton was my hero growing up. He was my football hero," said Luck, who is expected to be taken by the Colts with the first overall pick in Thursday's draft. "That's who I modeled myself after in high school, middle school, whatever it was. You never truly replace a guy like that."

Maybe not, but Colts fans will surely expect a lot from their next quarterback. Especially after Manning delivered so many memorable moments during a 14-year run in Indianapolis that ended after last season because of continued neck problems. The Colts parted ways with Manning in early March, and he signed with the Broncos.

Not to worry, says Luck.

"I set fairly high expectations for myself," said Luck, the Heisman Trophy runner-up the last two seasons. "I don't really get involved in what other people set for me, aside from my parents, family, people I truly care about."

But if there was ever a quarterback made to weather the difficulties that lie ahead in a city used to quarterback brilliance, it's Luck. Growing up in a family in which football was always a primary pursuit, Luck has flourished at every level by maintaining his focus, carefully building the skills required for excellence, and transforming himself into an elite quarterback who appears ready for greatness in the NFL.

"[Luck] is a great player," said Colts general manager Ryan Grigson, who said last week that the team has settled on its pick, although he declined to say Luck was the choice. "The last guy in the last row of any stadium can tell you that he's a heck of a quarterback, a heck of a person, intelligent kid. He's got a lot to offer."

This will not be an easy transformation, though. Just as Manning had to mature during his rookie season, when the Colts went 3-13, Luck will have his work cut out. He joins a team that not long ago was of championship caliber but has been taken apart piece by piece by injuries and salary-cap concerns. Two days after the Colts announced Manning's release, they said goodbye to four other longtime stars: tight end Dallas Clark, running back Joseph Addai, linebacker Gary Brackett and safety Melvin Bullitt.

But growing up in Oliver Luck's house and playing for former NFL quarterback Jim Harbaugh at Stanford should go a long way toward helping Luck lead the Colts back to the playoffs before long.

"He's got all the qualities, mentally and physically," said Harbaugh, the 49ers' coach. "He's as prepared as anybody that you're going to find. He's really good. He's got a lot of talent."

Harbaugh thinks Luck is uniquely suited to face the comparisons to Manning.

"Fair or unfair, it's the nature of the business," Harbaugh said. "But he's very equipped to deal with it. He's one of the finest football players I've ever been around and an even better person."

And perhaps the greatest compliment of all from Harbaugh: "I'm not going to like playing against him. I'm not looking forward to that."

At least the 49ers don't have to face him this season. Then again, by the time Luck does face his former coach, he'll be that much more comfortable in his new uniform, the one he'll put on Thursday.

New Colts coach Chuck Pagano seemed destined for the job, his family says By Phillip B. Wilson Indy Star January 27, 2012

In one of the proudest moments of his life, Sam Pagano had a flashback from four decades ago, when his 9-year-old son, Chuck, scurried around a football sideline and squirted water in the faces of the Fairview High School Knights.

The father, who coached teams in Boulder, Colo., to three state titles, knew then his son's destiny.

"He is football. He loves it," Pagano said via phone about Chuck, now 51 and introduced Thursday as the new Indianapolis Colts head coach in a news conference at the team's Northwestside complex.

Chuck Pagano stood at the lectern and conceded almost immediately that this opportunity was a dream job come true.

"Now I'm at the top of the pinnacle," he said. "I've spent 28 years of my life in coaching waiting for this opportunity."

It's been quite the January for the Pagano family. Sam's younger son, John, became the San Diego Chargers' defensive coordinator Jan. 5.

"We've had so much good news this month," said Sam, 73, who is retired from coaching. "God, we're so excited for Chuck. He's worked so hard for this."

The passion was to be expected from the sons. They saw football take their father around the world. In the 1990s, Sam coached in France, Italy and Germany. Even now, the sons come home each summer to help out at the father's Mile High Football Camp.

John, 42, also grew up idolizing his brother. He had a premonition Chuck would land the Colts job if given an interview. He told family and friends the Baltimore Ravens soon would be losing a defensive coordinator.

John was scouting a Senior Bowl practice in Mobile, Ala., when his older brother called with the good news. "I wanted to start crying," John said.

The Paganos are more about toughness than tears -- Chuck was once a hard-hitting safety who played college ball at Wyoming. But there is humility, too. And a lot of emotion.

Pagano's wife, Tina, and two of their three daughters made the trip for the announcement. The girls confided afterward that their dad has a softer side.

"He's tough, and that shows through his coaching," said Taylor, 21. "He gets up there (at the lectern) and does that like it's a breeze. But he's not like that at home.

"I think him being around us girls, there's a lot of estrogen in the house. It's worn off on him. He's emotional -- that's just how he is. We all are."

Tori, 17, described him as "a loving father."

Chuck Pagano's players learn from his old-school discipline and demanding nature. Imagine what these big, strong NFL guys would think if they saw how their coach interacts with his girls.

"He's not afraid to braid their hair," Tina said. "He does more braids than I do. When they were little, he braided their hair a lot."

His family taught Pagano the importance of building relationships. Sam said Chuck's work ethic came from his mother, Diana, and the coaching from him.

It's the same with John. If the Pagano name sounds familiar to Colts fans, it should. John was on Jim Mora's Colts staff as a defensive assistant from 1998 to 2001. Mora met the Paganos while coaching at the University of Colorado.

"It's a great family," Mora said. "I've known them for a long time. It's a fabulous opportunity, and they got themselves a good man. That football background, that's good training for a guy. I think Chuck will do a great job. He's 100 percent football."

If there's one thing that gets John going, it's talking with Chuck about the game. "He's been my number one guy, my number one best friend," John said. "There's only one person I truly talk X's and O's with, and that's him. Our relationship is so special. You guys have got yourself a winner there."

Colts guard Joe Reitz, who spent 2008-09 on the Ravens practice squad, is excited about the hiring.

"He would always go out of his way to say hello to me even though I was a lowly guy on the practice squad," said Reitz, a local fan favorite from his days as a Hamilton Southeastern High basketball star.

"He really cares about all of his players. A couple of my best friends in Baltimore, they're defensive backs, they would rave about him, how they loved to play for him."

Pagano was the Ravens' secondary coach for three years before being named defensive coordinator in 2011.

"I know the guys in Baltimore would talk about how he would instill confidence in them, how they could just go out and play with that confidence," Reitz said. "The guys love playing for a guy like that."

When reviewing Pagano's resume, one might question the Colts hiring a man who has never been a head coach and had only one year as an NFL defensive coordinator.

"He's got a lot of work to do, but I'm sure he'll do it with vigor, enthusiasm and great spirit," Sam Pagano said. "People may look at that (lack of head coaching experience), but believe me, he's ready."

Those closest to Chuck Pagano know the former water boy has worked an entire life to earn this opportunity.

"It's what he was born to do," Tina said.

New intensity: Colts get their man By Mike Chappell Indy Star January 26, 2012

Reggie Wayne is no stranger to Chuck Pagano, named Wednesday the 11th head or interim head coach in the Colts' Indianapolis era.

"Great dude," Wayne said. "Great dude."

Wayne developed into a standout receiver at the University of Miami from 1997-2000 during which time Pagano handled the Hurricanes' secondary and special teams.

"Chuck's an intense guy, loves the game of football," Wayne said.

Don't take his word for it.

"(Ravens safety) Ed Reed says (Pagano) is ready," Wayne said, "and that's good enough for me. He's a great hire and I believe he'll bring excitement to the team."

Pagano, 51, is the latest cornerstone set in place in the Colts' major restoration project. He replaces Jim Caldwell, fired Jan. 17, three weeks after the team closed the 2011 season with a 2-14 record.

A news conference is scheduled for 3 p.m. today.

"It's difficult to leave the Ravens, but I couldn't pass up on this great opportunity,'' Pagano said in a statement released by the Ravens. "I'm just thrilled and so excited."

Owner Jim Irsay and general manager Ryan Grigson settled on Pagano following a search that was extensive but spanned only nine days.

Irsay's enthusiasm was evident on his Twitter account: "Indy,we got one hell of a football coach with fire in his eyes! When I said,coach,r u ready 2b The Colts head coach,he said, 'Let's hunt.' "

The Colts' gain is the Ravens' loss. Pagano had been with Baltimore the past four seasons, and in 2011 was the coordinator of an aggressive defense that ranked No. 3 in the NFL in fewest yards and points allowed and was tied for third with 48 sacks.

"They're getting a great coach and we're losing one," Ravens veteran outside linebacker said. "That sucks for us, but good for them.

"I don't have enough good things to say about Chuck. From a personality standpoint, the guys over there are going to love him. He's got a fiery personality, but he's really funny. He can be defined as a players' coach, but he knows football."

Safety Chris Carr played for Pagano at Oakland before joining him in Baltimore in 2009. Like Johnson, he hates that he's losing his coach but glad Pagano is taking that next step.

"Great football IQ," Carr said. "(The Colts) are getting a coach who's 51 years old, but he seems a lot younger. He's a guy who can relate to players with different personalities.

"This isn't an older guy who is out of touch with the world."

Pagano is the fourth former Ravens defensive coordinator to be named an NFL head coach, joining (), (San Francisco 49ers) and (New York Jets).

The Ravens' foundation is an aggressive, disruptive defense. They're a 3-4 bunch -- three down linemen, four linebackers -- that's always in attack mode.

The Colts, meanwhile, have been an offense-driven team behind quarterback Peyton Manning and have followed a more passive defensive scheme. The defense ranked No. 25 in the league during an injury-ravaged 2011 and has ranked among the top 10 only twice since 2002.

Pagano's hiring was embraced by a few Colts defenders. "I like it," perennial Pro Bowl end Robert Mathis wrote on his Twitter account.

And this tweet from safety Antoine Bethea: "New Head Coach in town!! Hope he brings that Raven style of defense with him!!"

That remains to be seen. In Baltimore, Pagano leaned on a Pro Bowl-saturated lineup that included Reed, linebackers Ray Lewis, Terrell Suggs and Johnson, and tackle Haloti Ngata.

Bethea is a former Pro Bowler, but the Colts' only true difference-makers on defense are Mathis and end Dwight Freeney. It's debatable if they have the required talent in the front seven to play a 3-4.

"What Chuck's going to do is look at the players in the room and fit the defense he runs around the talent he has," Johnson said.

"People say we were a straight 3-4, but we really were a hybrid. We play a little bit of everything."

Pagano inherits a team coming off its worst season in two decades and must help Irsay decide whether Manning is part of the comprehensive rebuilding that's taking place. Manning still is rehabilitating from Sept. 8 neck surgery that forced him to miss the 2011 season. He is due a $28 million option bonus by March 8 that, if unpaid, makes him an unrestricted free agent.

Also, the Colts hold the first overall pick in the April draft that likely will deliver Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck. Other significant personnel decisions loom.

Speculation in Baltimore has Pagano perhaps bringing with him defensive line coach Clarence Brooks and linebackers coach from the Ravens staff, although Pees might be in position to succeed Pagano as coordinator. He also might consider Butch Davis, with whom he has a long relationship.

Rookie offensive tackle Anthony Castonzo is taking a wait-and-see approach, with a caveat.

"My first reaction, I know he's an Italian guy," Castonzo said. "His last name ends with an 'o,' and my last name ends with an 'o.' Beyond that, I don't know anything about him."
