'YOU FIRED THE WRONG GUY JIM': Irsay's tweet draws an emphatic response
The Indianapolis Colts fired offensive coordinator Marcus Brady on Tuesday. Brady held that position for 1 1/2 seasons after being promoted from quarterbacks coach.
Team owner Jim Irsay tweeted an announcement and wished Brady the best, including a 👍 at the end.
That struck some as odd. And lots of responses included suggestions for what Irsay should do next -- or what he should have done instead.
First the QB, now the OC:What to know as Marcus Brady’s tenure with Colts ends
This morning we relieved Marcus Brady of his duties as Offensive Coordinator. I wish this good man all the best.👍

I’m ready to call the plays, Jim. I am 348-4 on Madden 23 vs online players. I will utilize this team and roster and make the @colts great again. Prior coaching experience is my daughters 7 year old flag football team. We went 11-0 out scoring the opponents 234-14. #ForTheShoe
