    JIM IRSAYOwner and Chief Executive Officer

    Jim Irsay has guided the Indianapolis Colts to an elite standing in the NFLsince assuming control of the franchise in 1997. The team his family hasowned since 1972 has earned the league's best regular-season record (128-48) over the last eleven seasons, while earning the most playoff appearances(10) by any team.

    The Colts have won seven division titles in that same period, five consecu-tively in the AFC South (2003-07) as well as the 1999 AFC East crown. In2009, the Colts became the only team in NFL's 90 years to post seven con-secutive seasons with 12 or more wins. The Colts became the third team toopen a season with 14 consecutive victories. Indianapolis earned the NFL'sbest record and home-field playoff advantage, won the AFC Championshipand reached Super Bowl XLIV, a second title appearance for the team in fourseasons. Indianapolis produced 115 regular-season victories from 2000-09,the best decade victory total in NFL history. The club also set another leaguerecord with 23 consecutive regular-season victories from 2008-09.

    Under Irsay's leadership, the team won 65 regular-season games from2005-09, the second-highest five-year total in NFL history and twice ranked third in league history in the same cat-egory (63, 2003-07; 2004-08). Three times (51, 2004-07; 2005-08; 2006-09) the club has tied for the fourth-most wins in a four-year regular-season span, while twice tying for the sixth-most total wins (regular season/ play-off) over four seasons (57, 2003-06; 2006-09). The Colts have won 10+ games in eight straight regular seasons,the second-longest streak in NFL history, and the franchise stands alone in earning victory streaks of at least sevenconsecutive games in six consecutive regular seasons (2003-09).

    In 2009, Head Coach Jim Caldwell assumed field control of the club and set NFL marks for the best first-yearseasonal start and the most consecutive wins (14) to open a career. Caldwell joined the club leadership structurethat included President Bill Polian, who won an unprecedented sixth NFL Executive-of-the-Year Award.

    In 2008, the team opened Lucas Oil Stadium, one of America's finest venues. The club has played before sell-out crowds and set seasonal home attendance records in the first two years of the stadium. The club has won 13of 16 regular-season games, two playoff outings and an AFC Championship for its most treasured asset: Colts fans.Moving from the RCA Dome after 24 memorable seasons, the club unveiled its Ring of Honor in Lucas Oil Stadium.Those enshrined are Robert Irsay, Bill Brooks, Chris Hinton, Jim Harbaugh, Ted Marchibroda and the “Twelfth Man”for Colts fans. Lucas Oil Stadium will host Super Bowl XLVI in January, 2012. The sporting world's crowning eventwill culminate worldwide attention for Indianapolis, its surrounding areas and some of the nation's finest residents.

    A hallmark of Jim Irsay's tenure of stewardship was the 2006 season, when the franchise won its fourth WorldChampionship, a 29-17 victory over Chicago in Super Bowl XLI. Following its triumphant title return, the team waswelcomed by a raucous crowd lining downtown streets and filling the RCA Dome. Irsay responded by sending theLombardi Trophy on a tour throughout Indiana. The 50-stop, 3,130-mile tour gave fans an opportunity to see, touchand have pictures taken with the trophy. That fall, he created a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for fans to competefor one of five authentic Super Bowl rings. The effort raised more than $225,000 for charity and entertained thou-sands who witnessed the 10 finalists take their chance to pick one of five treasure chests that contained a ringinscribed with, 'Colts Fan.'

    Irsay joined the professional staff in 1982, upon graduation with a degree in broadcast journalism fromSouthern Methodist University. He was named Vice President and General Manager in 1984. He served in thatcapacity until taking the role of Senior Executive Vice President, General Manager and Chief Operating Officer inApril of 1996. In January of 1997, he assumed sole ownership of the team and has served as its Owner and CEOsince that time.

    An active and participating owner, Irsay chairs the league's Legislative Committee and serves on both theFinance Committee and the Super Bowl Policy Committee. He also has served on the Executive Committee of theManagement Council and the Pro-College Relations Committee. Additionally, he was a member of the RealignmentWorking Group and the Working Club Executive Committee that authored the NFL's Collective BargainingAgreement in 1993.

    His community leadership in Central Indiana includes board service on the United Way of Central Indiana, TheIndy Partnership and Noble of Indiana.

    Jim and his wife, Meg, oversee the Colts' extensive contributions program. Passionate advocates for education,the Irsay family established a four-year scholarship at SMU awarded to a graduate of an Indiana high school. Intheir home city and state, the Irsays are active supporters for programs that address domestic violence, children withdisabilities and their families, environment, cancer research and contemporary dance.

    Although football has been the focus of his professional life, he is a music aficionado who collects rare guitars(including Jerry Garcia's Tiger and one of George Harrison's guitars), and an Americana fan who collects rare his-torical documents, including Jack Kerouac's original manuscript of On the Road.

    Jim and Meg have three daughters, Carlie, who is pursuing graduate work in psychology, Casey, a graduateof Indiana University's Kelley School of Business, and Kalen, a graduate of Indiana University’s School of Health,Physical Education and Recreation. Carlie, Casey and Kalen serve as vice presidents with the club.

  • BILL POLIANPresident

    Bill Polian is in his 13th season as President of the Indianapolis Colts. Polianoversees all football and administrative aspects of the Colts. His football blueprinthas established a period of achievement that ranks among the best accomplishedin the NFL's 90 seasons.

    Since Polian's 1998 arrival, no team has had more playoff appearances thanthe Colts. The Colts are the only team to make the playoffs 10 times in the last 11seasons, reaching the divisional, conference or league title round in six of the pastseven years and to the Super Bowl twice since 2006. The club leads the NFL witheight consecutive playoff appearances and is the only team with 10+ victories andplayoff berths annually since the 2002 Realignment. Since 1999, the club has a128-48 (.727) mark, the NFL's winningest regular-season team by eight gamesover its nearest competitor.

    The Colts have won seven division titles (1999, 2003-07, 09) during Polian'stenure. The Colts (four times) join Chicago, San Francisco and New England (twice) as the only franchises with 50+regular-season victories in a four-year span. From 2000-09, the Colts (115-45) set the NFL mark for most wins in adecade. The club's nine playoff berths tied the NFL record of Dallas in the 1970s. The club also earned 23 con-secutive regular-season victories during 2008-09, a new NFL record.

    The 2009 Colts owned a 14-2 record and became the only team with 12+ victories in seven consecutive sea-sons. Indianapolis has a league-best 11+ victories in seven consecutive seasons, while eight straight seasons with10+ wins is the second-longest NFL streak. Indianapolis is the only team to win seven or more consecutive regular-season games in six straight seasons and became just the third team to open a season with 14 victories. Indianapoliswon the AFC Championship, 30-17 over the New York Jets.

    In 2006, the Colts captured a fourth World Championship with a 29-17 victory over Chicago in Super BowlXLI. It was the club's first title appearance in 36 years. That same character, resilience and commitment propelledthe club to Super Bowl XLIV against New Orleans, capping one of the NFL's top decades of accomplishment byany franchise.

    In 2002, Polian oversaw the hiring of Tony Dungy. Together they forged seven consecutive playoff teams, andDungy became the winningest Colts head coach. Polian led the hiring of Jim Caldwell in 2009. Caldwell becamethe first NFL coach to win his first 14 games, and he was the fifth rookie head coach to reach the Super Bowl.

    Polian and pro football success are synonymous. In 22 seasons as a general manager or president withIndianapolis, Carolina and Buffalo, his teams have made 16 playoff, eight championship game and five Super Bowlappearances, while winning a World Championship. Polian's Buffalo teams made the Super Bowl three times andreturned again the year after his departure. He built Carolina into the winningest expansion franchise in sports his-tory, reaching the NFC Championship game in year two. He helped build Grey Cup title teams with two CFL fran-chises (Montreal and Winnipeg).

    Polian's teams have earned a combined regular-season record of 228-139. Discounting the start-up seasons of1985-86 at Buffalo, 1995 at Carolina and 1998 in Indianapolis, his mark is 212-91, a .700 winning percentage.Polian has been part of 13 11+-victory seasons and has won a division crown at every stop. From 2003-09, histeams had 81 victories in 100 regular-season games, tying the highest 100-game NFL victory total.

    Polian's record is unique among NFL administrators. In a 2009 vote of his peers, Polian became the first six-timewinner of the Executive of the Year award from The Sporting News. Polian eclipsed a tie with the late George Young.Polian, Young and the late Jim Finks are the only multiple recipients of the award.

    A keen judge of talent, Polian's expertise has transformed the Colts. His draft classes have yielded QB-PeytonManning, RBs-Edgerrin James and Joseph Addai, WRs-Reggie Wayne, Anthony Gonzalez, Pierre Garcon and AustinCollie, DEs-Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis, DBs-Bob Sanders, Antoine Bethea, Marlin Jackson, Kelvin Haydenand Jerraud Powers, OTs-Ryan Diem and Tony Ugoh, OGs-Jake Scott, Mike Pollak, Jamey Richard and TE-DallasClark, among others. Polian found key free agents in C-Jeff Saturday, K-Mike Vanderjagt, RB-Dominic Rhodes, LB-Gary Brackett and DBs-Melvin Bullitt and Jacob Lacey. Indianapolis ended the 2009 season with 48 of 53 active-roster players having game action only for the Colts. Manning, James, Addai, Clark, WR-Marvin Harrison, Wayne,Freeney, Mathis, Vanderjagt, OT-Tarik Glenn, Saturday, LB-Cato June, Bethea and Sanders reached the Pro Bowl dur-ing Polian's tenure.

    Polian was a pro scout for Kansas City in 1978. He worked five years there before moving to Winnipeg as per-sonnel director. He helped build a team that won two CFL titles. He served as personnel director with Chicago ofthe USFL in 1984. Polian joined Buffalo in 1984 as pro personnel director and was promoted to general manageron December 30, 1985. The Bills reached Super Bowls XXV, XXVI and XXVII during Polian's tenure, then added afourth Super Bowl in 1993. Polian presented former Buffalo Head Coach Marv Levy at his Pro Football Hall of Fameinduction in 2001.

    Polian served as Vice President of Football Development for the NFL in 1993. He helped formulate and imple-ment the NFL's current Collective Bargaining Agreement. Long active in NFL affairs, Polian serves as a member ofthe Competition Committee, Diversity Committee, Management Council Senior Executive Committee and is Chairmanof the College Relations Committee.

    Polian and his wife, Eileen, are parents of four children, Lynn, Chris, Brian and Dennis. They have six grand-children.

    JIM CALDWELLHEAD COACH

    Jim Caldwell enters his second season as head coach of the Colts.Caldwell served with Indianapolis for seven years before taking over asfield general in 2009. Caldwell spent his first three seasons as quarter-backs coach before earning the expanded title of assistant head coachprior to the 2005 season. He was elevated to associate head coach withthe club on January 21, 2008.Caldwell produced one of the most notable seasons by a first-year NFL

    head coach. He directed the club to a 14-2 record before winning twoplayoff games and reaching Super Bowl XLIV. The club tied franchisemarks for regular-season (2005) and overall victories (16, 2006). TheColts were wire-to-wire divisional leaders and joined San Francisco(1997), Philadelphia (2004) and New England (2007) as the only teams

    since 1990 to clinch their divisions by the 11th game of the season. Caldwell became the only NFL rook-ie head coach to win his first 14 games in a season, surpassing Potsy Clark (8, Portsmouth, 1931), andhe surpassed Wally Lemm (10, 1961 Houston Oilers-1962 St. Louis Cardinals) for the most consecutivewins to start a career. Caldwell also became the second first-year head coach since the 1978 NFL moveto a 16-game season to win 14 games (George Seifert, San Francisco, 1989). The 14-0 start marked thethird in league history (16-0, New England, 2007; 14-0, Miami, 1972). The 13-0 start was the secondfor the club in the past five seasons (13-0, 2005), and the Colts are the only team ever to have three 9-0starts in a five-year span (also 9-0 in 2006). Caldwell joined Chuck Knox (L.A. Rams, 1973), Red Miller(Denver, 1977), Mike Martz (St. Louis, 2000) and Josh McDaniels (Denver, 2009) as the only rookie headcoaches in the Super Bowl era to start 6-0. He became the fourth coach ever to start 6-0 when succeed-ing a head coach who won 100+ games (Blanton Collier, Cleveland, 1963, succeeded Paul Brown, 111wins; Jack Pardee, Washington, 1978, succeeded George Allen, 116 wins; Josh McDaniels, Denver,2009, succeeded Mike Shanahan, 146 wins; Caldwell, Colts, 2009, succeeded Tony Dungy, 139 wins).Caldwell helped produce the 19th 10+-victory season in franchise history, and he is one of six Colts headcoaches to earn double-digit victory totals (7, Dungy; 4, Don Shula; 3, Ted Marchibroda; 2, DonMcCafferty; 2, Jim Mora). Caldwell joined McCafferty (11-2-1, 1970, Super Bowl champion),Marchibroda (10-4, 1975, Divisional Playoffs) and Dungy (10-6, 2002, Wild Card Playoffs) as the onlyColts first-year head coaches to earn a double-digit victory total and a playoff berth. Caldwell became thefifth rookie head coach to reach the Super Bowl (McCafferty, Colts, 1970; Miller, Denver, 1977; Seifert,San Francisco, 1989; Bill Callahan, Oakland, 2002).

    Caldwell's leadership has helped the Colts annually have one of the NFL's most prolific offenses.Indianapolis ranked 2nd in NFL passing in 2009. The performance was a continuation of excellence thathas seen the Colts rank in the top four in NFL scoring offense in eight of the past 11 years. The club hasranked in the top three in AFC passing offense and top six in the NFL for 12 consecutive seasons, includ-ing six times as the conference leader. The offensive performance has helped the franchise earn historicaccomplishments. From 2002-09, Caldwell has been a part of Colts teams that produced 10-6, 12-4, 12-4, 14-2, 12-4, 13-3, 12-4 and 14-2 records. Indianapolis is the only team to earn 12+ victories in sevenconsecutive seasons. The club's eight consecutive 10+-victory seasons mark the second-longest NFL streak(16, San Francisco, 1983-98), and the Colts' seven consecutive seasons with 11+ wins is an NFL record.The Colts also have earned an NFL-best eight consecutive playoff appearances, and Indianapolis is the onlyteam to post double-digit victory seasons and playoff berths annually since the 2002 Realignment. In2009, Indianapolis set the NFL record with 23 consecutive regular-season victories (21 New England,2006-08). Indianapolis also won 115 regular-season games from 2000-09, the most by a team in adecade in NFL history. From 2004-09, Indianapolis became the only NFL team to win at least seven con-secutive games in six consecutive seasons (8, 2004; 13, 2005; 9, 2006; 7 and 6, 2007; 9, 2008; 14,

    CLYDE CHRISTENSENOffensive Coordinator

    Clyde Christensen enters his first season as offensive coordinator of the Colts. Thismarks Christensen's ninth season with the club and his 15th in the NFL. He servedas assistant head coach/wide receivers in 2008, and he spent 2002-07 as widereceivers coach. Christensen joined Indianapolis from Tampa Bay, where heserved as offensive coordinator during the 2001 season.In 2009, Christensen's receiving corps continued producing outstanding numbers,and it did so with two new contributors. WR-Reggie Wayne (100-1,264, 10 TDs)earned a fourth consecutive Pro Bowl bid in producing his sixth consecutive

    1,000+-yardage season and a second 100+-reception season. Missing Marvin Harrison (retirement) andAnthony Gonzalez (injury), WRs-Austin Collie (60-676, 7 TDs) and Pierre Garcon (47-765, 4 TDs)amassed solid seasons. Wayne (676-9,393, 63 TDs) moved past Raymond Berry into 2nd-place in Coltscareer receptions and yards behind Harrison, and Wayne's 668 snares from QB-Peyton Manning rank2nd-most in NFL history for a tandem (953, Manning-Harrison). Wayne has 31 career 100+-yard out-ings, and he teamed with TE-Dallas Clark (100) as the Colts became just the fourth team with two 100+seasonal receivers. Collie produced some of the best rookie seasonal totals in club history, while Garcondeveloped into a feared target. The receivers helped Manning produce his league-best tenth 4,000+-yardand 12th consecutive 25+-TD season, along with a club seasonal-best 68.8 completion percentage.Garcon (21-251, 2 TDs), Collie (17-241, 2 TDs) and Wayne (16-164, 1 TD) had solid post-season show-ings. The club earned an NFL-best eighth straight playoff berth.In 2008, Christensen's group had outstanding numbers. Wayne (82-1,145, 6 TDs), Harrison (60-636, 5TDs) and Gonzalez (57-664, 4 TDs) ranked among the top four Colts receivers. Harrison (1,102-14,580,128 TDs) returned from an injury and ended his illustrious tenure with the club by ranking 2nd in NFLcareer receptions, 4th in yards and 5th in touchdown receptions. He and Manning remained among thefinest QB-WR tandems in NFL history (953 completions, 12,766 yards, 112 TDs). Harrison ended theseason ranking T2nd in NFL history with 59 100+ games and 9th in NFL career touchdowns. He hadreceptions in 190 consecutive games, the 2nd-longest NFL streak and the most ever to start a career.Gonzalez followed a solid rookie season by increasing his totals in 2008. In 2007, Harrison had aninjury-interrupted season, while Wayne (104-1,510, 10 TDs) and Gonzalez (37-576, 3 TDs) had solidseasons. Wayne became then only the 16th NFL receiver to produce a 1,500+ season. Wayne becameonly the third receiver in NFL history to increase seasonal reception totals over the first seven career sea-sons (Berry, 1955-61; Shawn Jefferson, 1991-97), and Gonzalez's performance ranked among the bestin club history by a rookie. With the performances of Manning (4,040), Wayne and RB-Joseph Addai(1,072), Indianapolis earned its NFL-record seventh offense with a 4,000+ passer and 1,000+ rusher andreceiver. In the NFL's 90 seasons, the Colts own seven of the league's 35 such offenses. In 2006,Harrison (95-1,366, 12 TDs) and Wayne (86-1,310, 9 TDs) earned Pro Bowl honors. Harrison becamethe only NFL receiver with eight consecutive 1,000+-yard and 10+-TD seasons. In 2005, Harrison (82-1,146, 12 TDs) and Wayne (83-1,055, 5 TDs) played key roles in the club's 13-0 start. In 2004,Christensen's unit had one of the best seasonal performances in NFL history. Harrison (86-1,113, 15TDs), Wayne (77-1,210, 12 TDs) and WR-Brandon Stokley (68-1,077, 10 TDs) became the first NFLreceiving trio to post 1,000+-yardage and 10+-touchdown seasons. The performances stand along withSan Diego (1980), Washington (1989), Atlanta (1995) and Arizona (2008) as the only teams with a trioof 1,000+ receivers. Harrison (4), Wayne (4) and Stokley (5) had 13 of the club's 14 regular-season100+ reception yardage games, and Wayne (10-221 vs. Denver) broke the club's playoff yardage recordof Berry (178, 1958 NFL Championship Game). In 2002, Christensen helped Harrison become the onlyNFL player to amass 100+ receptions in four consecutive seasons (115, 1999; 102, 2000; 109, 2001;143, 2002), while his reception total set a new NFL seasonal record. Harrison was 94-1,262, 10 TDsin 2003, and he set then the five best seasons in club history during his 1999-03 performances.Christensen spent six seasons at Tampa Bay, tutoring tight ends from 1996-98 and quarterbacks from1999-00 before being promoted to offensive coordinator. The club made four playoff appearances dur-ing that span. In 2001, WR-Keyshawn Johnson (106 receptions) and QB-Brad Johnson (340 completions)posted franchise seasonal marks. Christensen helped the late-season development of rookie QB-ShaunKing in 1999. King led Tampa Bay to four wins late wins for the NFC Central title, becoming then thesecond rookie quarterback since the 1970 Merger to win a playoff game.Before joining Tampa Bay, Christensen spent 1994-95 as co-offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach atClemson.
