I think I see the problem. TY was running routes that were more than five yards downfield, putting him out of range of Brissett's arm.
That's a quite ignorant post.

We have a window of a few years I think. I honestly doubt the rookie would start next year unless JB gets hurt.
Still you have to pull the trigger on someone because doing nothing will not get us there. At the same time I really don't see anyone available in FA or for trade getting us there either.
So build a better team for next year's qb class. We ain't getting Burrow, far too risky to get Tua, so that leaves only Herbert. Is he worth the 13th pick with his accuracy issues?

I agree with that. I just think that our O-line would make most QB's look better than they are. So this was Brissett looking better than he is. Scary.
Tell that to last nights O-line.

All of those 3 would be better than Brissett. Just shows how low Jacoby has set the bar.
There is actually zero way to prove either of us correct. It is all speculative, we cannot predict how any of them could have faired in this offense, with the injuries and lack of playmakers we have had all season.

Not really. Maybe I shouldn't have used the word "certainly", because it wouldn't be a huge improvement in my opinion. I wouldn't be in favor of signing him. I do want to find a better option than Brissett. Dalton, Carr, Rivers.
None of those three would be better. Dalton has never been great, Carr is likely worse than Brisset in our offense, and you can't predict Rivers would have done any better with what he has to work with here this past season. He's also 38 years old and not Peyton Manning, it is unlikely he could come in and be successful in a whole new scheme and offense.

Nelson is a top 3 offensive linemen in the league even in his rookie year.
With all due respect Hilton has never been a top 3 receiver in his career.
Why compare things that can't be compared?

That's disgusting, and it shows how disgusting Brissett is as a QB. Make him ride the bus back home.
Or it shows the coaching decisions, it shows the inability of the receivers to make YAC or actually get open, it shows how bad injuries were.
But what do I know, maybe we should blame everything everyone else does on one person. Makes sense.

Seahawks are not as good as they were, too many injuries and lack of pass rush to overcome.
49ers go to the SB, most complete team. Tremendous athletes at all levels of offense and defense and battle tested.
And they were a near perfect season this year, their losses were close, one play games.

Jim Irsay will pressure the Front Office to acquire a QB. Remember that we're in "win-now" mode.
And a rookie qb will do that?
Tell me, when's the last time a rookie qb win a SB?

For those of you saying we can't get an upgrade unless it is Burrow or Tua, keep mind mine Brissett was thoroughly outplayed today by a rookie 6th round pick! So it is not beyond the possible that we could get a player not in the top 10 to be better than Brissett. He really isn't very good. He just seems to be slow in his processing.
How did Minshew outplay him?
Did he give him the juke? Did he play mind games? Did he beat him in a foot race?
Please explain to me how Minshew outplayed Brisset, cause I didn't see them on the field at the same time at any point.

Decent back up, but a guy that just plays scared. He holds onto the ball too long, misses open receivers and just can't move the team. This game has to be the final nail in that debate..
Those same things were said about Luck, he missed his receivers quite often and consistently threw behind them. The biggest reason for all his INTs was because he had trouble leading his receivers. He also held on to the ball for quite some time: in 2016 he was tied for second slowest behind tyrod Taylor and in 2018, however this is not entirely indicative of a bad qb as Rodgers, Watson, Tannehill, Jackson, Wilson, and Mahommes all have similar time to throw. It could just be a sign of how good the O line is or how bad the receivers are at getting open.

Wait he doesn't? Dang, that's a big knock against Reich then. Everyone and their grandmother knows that athletes hide injuries. Letting him do that with no check on it is a recipe for exactly this kind of fallout.
If we wonder how so many of our players came away with season ending injuries this year -- a head coach not doing his job overseeing players' health and safety is a good place to start looking.
I know Reich is old fashioned, and by and large it's a good thing, but not when it comes to medical practice and player safety!
If a head coach isn't wise enough to be the voice of reason, or atren't on the ball enough to even know a guy's having pgysical problems players by the nature of the game and their desire to be out there are going to cripple themselves permanently under that coach's watch. That already happens enough without negligence from the coaching staff making it even worse.
If he's really not overseeing players' physical health (which I doubt, but let's take his nonsense at face value here) then he's a negligent coach and should be fired immediately. And I say that as a guy who likes the overall style of play he's brought to Indy.
I find it a knock against Reich as it shows a lack of care, and to some degree empathy, for his players. I couldn't imagine not asking how the people underneath me are doing when I know they are hurt, both physically and emotionally.

While I think QB is a pressing need, I wouldn't reach for one unless it was Tua--give him a year to fully recover from his injury.
We desperately need inside pressure on the D -line
Nope, no way I'd risk taking him. Too injury prone, both ankles weak.

I saw a madden 20 with manning on it. Why?
My immediate thought was, well you can't curse a player who isn't playing...or will they?

RUNNER-UP #1 seed in regular season - League 2 on ESPN.COM, half-ppr:
Final roster - Carson Wentz, Mark Ingram, Chris Carson, Michael Thomas, Will Fuller, Breshaud Perriman, Jacob Hollister, Tyler Higbee, James Washington, Adrian Peterson, Golden Tate, LeVeon Bell, Only paid league where I get to choose Sony noise canceling wireless head phones or Apple AirPods for runner up prize. 1st price was a drone or an NFL game day package to any Colts game.
Paid league with prizes instead of cash? Wouldn't like that.

I just went back to back in my Yahoo league. Nobody has done it 6 years, I won by 2 points
done what in 6 years?
4 hours ago, John Waylon said:Well, no regret this year. The two teams that I put through both won their games, but the big overall side game for my 20 team league was a wash. Dropping that contest 106.something to what will probably wind up as 170.something.
She started our defense, and it was taken in my confidence so I couldn’t mirror that, so she got my by 23 on DST, Hopkins soiled the bed yesterday for me while Perriman had a nice game, and once again Kenyan Drake blew the doors off the scoring barn. Waller came along and let me down once again down the stretch like I figured he would, but it didn’t matter. I can’t look back on that matchup with regret, it was just one of those weeks where every starter she played hit.
Mattison seems likely to miss tomorrow, anyone firing up Boone?
oh ya, tell me about it. One league I'm not going to break 100 in a full ppr, and the other league I might break 115...

"Going into the offeason, we have to proceed as if Andrew is officially retired," owner Jim Irsay told NFL.com recently. "So that's how we operate now".
That's a pretty interesting quote. One thing is certain, if he wants to play, they would welcome him back and Luck would have his job back in a second.
Good thing I'm not a GM. I understand it's better business to have luck here, but I'm not one to easily let someone back in after pulling a stunt like he did.

Looks like many have the same dilemma as I do. I was able to snag Boone off waivers. Id really like to play him at the flex, but have Mostert, A. Peterson, Slayton, Tate and C. Samuel as options as well.
If it's your flex, I think Boone has got the best upside there, with a decent floor.

I dunno, boys. If Mattison is out it’s hard to turn down an RB you know is going to get a ton of touches against a defense that isn’t great against the run. But everyone is touting Parker and Mack as hot hands to start this week. I do believe one of them is going to come up short and post a sub-10 point total. The signs for both to do it are there. We’ve definitely got the table set for some Tuesday morning regret.
You can't start Cook, I just don't think there is any way to take on that risk. That is the epitome of go hard or go home. Boone will get all the touches if mattison is out even if the game is close or a blowout. The only way they bring in Cook is if Boone is getting less that 3 ypc. Gotta sit Cook, start boone. In my league where I have boone, I am starting him over Cook. In my league where I don't have Boone, I am sitting both Cook and Mattison.

Cook is out until the playoffs, I just heard it on ESPN.
If that's the case, then in my league where I have him it's an easy decision. Starting Mack and Hunt, flex options are Laird, Diggs, Slayton, Conley, and Scott.
Right now I've got Lairs in flex
Thoughts?
Also in full ppr, who are the two to start: Moore, Perriman, Slayton, Conley
Right now I've got Perriman and Moore.

Well. That does change the dynamic of the week, doesn’t it?
Boone and Mattison both have looked competent in their action. Green Bay gives up the 8th most points to RBs. If Mattison is ruled out before Sunday you’d be a fool not to start Boone. He’s going to get a ton of carries if it’s just he and Amir Abdullah.
If Mattison plays it gets a little less clear. Will they timeshare? Will Mattison come off the bench? But the upside is there.
Do I start one of them over Mack? Or over Parker at flex? He popped up on the injury report yesterday with a hip injury, but he’s expected to play. Aside from the week 14 game where he left early with the concussion he’s averaging 6 catches for 114 yards and a score a game over his last 4. But the Bengals are stingy to WRs.
I’m flip-flopping on Mack like a fish out of water. Looking at my roster yesterday I was pretty sure I couldn’t bench him. Then Reich starts talking about these new wrinkles to the passing game, and even TY sounds enthusiastic. Now I’m paranoid. Are they going to focus more on the passing game and testing Brissett this week against a suspect defense? I don’t know what to think at this point other than Mack could be a championship boon this year because we have other ideas this week...
Could Boone be the anti-boon?
I don't think you start boone over either of them.
