Wentz is injury prone - thus the whole 70-75% of the snaps thing. We need a backup QB who is genuinely ready to step on the field when called upon. If they have that confidence in Eason, that’s fine. That would be the best situation. But if they don’t, then I’d advocate using some of our cap space to sign a cheaper vet. I wouldn’t be very confident in “another rookie” we just “found.” And, in all likelihood, we’re not going to be drafting one...we have some critical needs to fill. -

That is why I only listed Indianapolis era teams. Of course the 1958 Colts would rank way up there if I factored in every era. -

Colts really don’t have a choice but to go with Eason. There are holes at LT, both DE spots, CB 1 and 2, MLB, WR 1 and 3. Some spots will be addressed in the draft and the depth already on the team. The rest will need to be filled in with free agents. Our cap space will be used up quickly and spending it on a backup QB would limit other positions. Colts aren’t legitimate SB contenders this year with Wentz so give Eason the backup snaps in practice he needs and see what he has. If Wentz does return to form I believe we are a LT, DE, CB and WR away from making a major playoff push. Those are the expensive positions and spending on a backup QB will eliminate our ability to address one of those. This roster is about to become top heavy so it’s time for draft picks to start filling out our depth and stepping into starting roles. -
Can't compare eras. Average O Lineman was 240 lbs. QBs weren't protected, and corners hand-fighting wasn't allowed. No Off-season conditioning- players had to work second jobs to pay their bills. Totally different games.
