Late in the third quarter, Colts inside linebacker Josh McNary blocked
an Eagles punt deep in Philadelphia territory. The ball was recovered in
the end zone by Indianapolis running back Jordan Todman to cut the
deficit to 24-10.
After Philadelphia increased their lead to 33-10 in the fourth quarter, Indianapolis quarterback Stephen Morris (7-of-11 passing for 144 yards
and one touchdown) was able to manufacture two long touchdown
drives to help chip away at the score.
Morris led the Colts on a five play, 88-yard drive that resulted in a oneyard touchdown run for the quarterback. Later in the fourth quarter, Morris conducted a six play, 80-yard drive that resulted in a nine-yard touchdown pass to running back Trey Williams. Adam Vinatieri connected
on the ensuing extra point to give the Colts their final points of the game.

COACHING YEARS IN NFL: 25th Year
BENGALS HEAD COACH: 14th Year
REGULAR SEASON: 112-94-2 (.543)
POSTSEASON: 0-7 (.000)
PRO CAREER: Named head coach of the Indianapolis
Colts on January 25, 2012. In four years as head coach,
Chuck Pagano has led the team to a 41-23 regular season record, including three consecutive 11-5 seasons
and playoff appearances from 2012-14. Currently, Pagano’s .641 winning percentage ranks fourth among active
head coaches in the NFL. In the process, he became only the second head coach
in NFL history to earn 11 wins in each of his first three seasons with a team and
became the third head coach in Colts history to reach the playoffs in each of his
first three years (Ted Marchibroda, 1975-77 and Tony Dungy, 2002-04).
The Colts finished the 2015 season with an 8-8 record and were 4-2 within the
AFC South Division. With a victory in Week 5 at Houston, Indianapolis improved
its consecutive win streak within the AFC South Division to 16 games, which set
an NFL record.
In 2014, Pagano led the Colts to their second straight AFC South Division title
and first AFC Championship Game since 2009. The team recorded a perfect
6-0 division record in back-to-back seasons for the first time in franchise history.
In 2013, Indianapolis earned the division title and won an AFC Wild Card Playoff
game against the Kansas City Chiefs that marked the second-largest comeback
in NFL postseason history.
In 2012, the Colts overcame the loss of Pagano to acute promyelocytic leukemia
for 12 games and responded with seven fourth quarter or overtime game-winning
drives en route to an 11-5 campaign. He previously spent four seasons with the
Baltimore Ravens, the last (2011) as the team’s defensive coordinator. Pagano
also served as the defensive backs coach of the Oakland Raiders (2005-06) and
the secondary coach of the Cleveland Browns (2001-04).
CAREER RECORD: 44-26.
BACKGROUND: Pagano was a safety at Wyoming from 1980-83. He coached
collegiately at Southern California (1984-85), Miami (1986), Boise State (198788), East Carolina (1989), Nevada-Las Vegas (1990-91), East Carolina (199294), Miami (1995-2000) and North Carolina (2007).
PERSONAL: Born in Boulder, Colo. on October 2, 1960. He and wife, Tina, have
three daughters, Tara, Taylor, Tori, and three granddaughters, Avery, Addison
and Zoey. His brother, John, is the San Diego Chargers’ defensive coordinator.

PRO CAREER: Marvin Lewis in 2016 extends his Bengals-record head coaching tenure to 14 seasons. He has
led the team to the postseason in six of the last seven
years, including five straight. The Bengals are one of only
four NFL teams to have made the playoffs the last five
years (2011-15). In total, Lewis has coached seven Bengals playoff teams, a franchise record.
Lewis opens 2016 with 112 career victories, 48 more than any other Bengals’
coach (Sam Wyche 64). In 2015, the Bengals won the AFC North title for the
second time in three years, equaling the franchise record with 12 victories. In
2013, Cincinnati won the AFC North Division championship by three games over
Baltimore and Pittsburgh. Lewis’ 2012 Bengals achieved a rare NFL feat, becoming only the ninth of 131 teams from 1990-2012 to rise from a 3-5 start to the
playoffs. Lewis was the consensus choice as NFL Coach of the Year in 2009,
when the Bengals won the AFC North title while sweeping all six division games.
The Bengals were AFC North champions under Lewis also in 2005. Lewis was
named the ninth head coach in Bengals history on January 14, 2003.
In 2002, Lewis was the Washington Redskins defensive coordinator and assistant head coach. He spent six seasons (1996-2001) as defensive coordinator
with the Baltimore Ravens, a tenure that included a Super Bowl victory in the
2000 season. In 2000, Lewis’ Baltimore defense set the NFL record for fewest
points allowed in a 16-game campaign (165), and the unit has been widely considered as one of the best NFL defenses of all time. Lewis spent four seasons
(1992-95) as the Pittsburgh Steelers linebackers coach.
CAREER RECORD: 112-101-2.
BACKGROUND: Earned All-Big Sky Conference honors as a linebacker at Idaho
State (1978-1980), and saw action at quarterback and free safety. He received
his bachelor’s degree in physical education and Master’s degree in athletic administration. Lewis was inducted into Idaho State’s Hall of Fame in 2001. He
began his coaching career at Idaho State (1981-84), winning an NCAA Division
I-AA championship in 1981. Lewis was also the linebackers coach at Long Beach
State (1985-86), New Mexico (1987-89) and Pittsburgh (1990-91).
PERSONAL: Born September 23, 1958, McDonald, Pa. Lewis and his wife, Peggy, have two children—Whitney and Marcus.

yards and one punt inside the 20-yard line. McAfee also contributed with
six kickoff touchbacks and converted a first down on a fake punt run.
The award was the second of McAfee’s career as he received the
honor in Week 6 of the 2014 season.
THE POINT OF NO RETURN
Due to the efforts of Pat McAfee and the special teams unit, the Colts
set an NFL record for the fewest single-season kickoff return yards
allowed. The unit also had the highest touchback percentage since the
Super Bowl era in 1970. Indianapolis only allowed 156 kickoff return
yards on the season and recorded an 87.0 touchback percentage.
