Jeff Saturday’s ‘I may be terrible at this’ speech will surprisingly make you want to run through a brick wall

Look: I was right there with you when I saw the news that the Indianapolis Colts replaced the fired Frank Reich with former franchise center Jeff Saturday.

I laughed and wondered what the heck the Colts were doing, but after what he said to reporters this week, I’m actually kind of intrigued by Saturday from a motivational perspective (which can mean a lot, I think!).

He focused on his experience in the locker room as a player and knows “he can lead men.”

But the part I loved?

“None of us are promised a good job,” he said. “I may be terrible at this, and after eight games, I’ll say, ‘God bless you. I am no good.’ I may be really good at it. I got no idea. But I dang sure ain’t going to back down, I can tell you that.”

OK I’M IN!
