Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Shamarko Thomas JerseyIrsay adamantly denied that a rift exists between general manager Ryan Grigson and coach Chuck Pagano. Irsay, in an impromptu interview outside the Colts' locker room after Sunday's 27-14 loss to Buffalo, was animated and clearly agitated about rumors circulating about the relationship between his general manager and coach. "That can't be farther [from] the truth," Irsay said. "Ryan and Chuck work hard together. They have a great relationship. http://www.steelersnflofficialonline.com/Authentic-Shaun-Suisham-JerseyI've seen coaches and general managers work together since I was 11 years old. I know the dynamic that needs to be there for them to work together. They have a great relationship." What caused Irsay to seek out the media after the game was a report by CBSSports.com on Sunday that said Pagano has no say in personnel decisions and he was not able to put together his own staff. "That report is completely http://www.steelersnflofficialonline.com/Authentic-Stephon-Tuitt-Jerseyfalse," Irsay said. "I can guarantee you that -- completely false. There is not one shred to truth to it at all. Honestly, these guys have a great relationship." Sources told ESPN that the Colts' decision to cut starting nose tackle Josh Chapman, who started 15 games last season, in favor of rookie David Parry, a fifth-round pick, didn't go over well with some in the organization because Chapman knows the system and had the trust of his teammates. Pagano has a defensive background as coach, but the Colts haven't put pieces around the coach to Cole Beasley Jerseygive him the opportunity to catch up with their offense. They used their first-round draft pick on receiver Phillip Dorsett when they had more pressing needs on defense. Pagano turned down a one-year contract extension from the Colts during the offseason, choosing instead to play out the season. Irsay was asked if Pagano, who led http://www.officialcowboysnflstore.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_COREY_WHITE_JERSEY.htmlthe Colts to the AFC Championship Game last season and has a 33-16 record during the regular season, is coaching for his job. "Whenever these guys are in coaching -- players and everything -- everyone has to win," Irsay said. "That's a given. I don't look at it as he's coaching for his job or anything like that. I really don't see the dynamic being anything different than any other year in the past to be honest with you. I don't see it that way at all."
