Curtis Painter and Larry Coyer are out in Indianapolis, and it could be just the start of the changes for the winless Colts.Coach Jim Caldwell broke up a normally quiet Tuesday by announcing that Coyer had been fired as defensive coordinator and that Dan Orlovsky would replace Painter at quarterback when the Colts play at New England on Sunday. Longtime linebackers coach Mike Murphy will replace Coyer.
The moves come in the midst of a shocking 0-11 season, Indianapolis' worst start since 1986, and two days after Indy may have lost its last chance at a victory.
Orlovsky was the backup for the Lions in 2008, which makes this comment relevant :covri::
Poor Orlovsky, he has the chance to go 0-16...twice.

It starts at the top. I'm surprised they are keeping Caldwell as the head coach, the guy just doesn't have it. He's riding Manning's coat tail and when Manning went down the HC was exposed.
