Scott Tolzien made the roster lol

My point proven: no consequences for playing like trash, your job is safe. Tolzien was horrible the entire pre season, and still makes the roster. I don't have a problem keeping 3 QB's, but you cannot tell me with a straight face that there isn't a better QB on waivers right now than Tolzien.

Tolzien was horrible in the first game, after that he did everything they expected of him.

I did. I saw the bush league RZ interception he threw vs Philly. Pass was a disgrace for a professional NFL QB

 

And he's other throws vs the ravens and Bengals. Look I'm not his biggest fan, but he's not as bad as you're making him out to be. He can manage games and that's really all you can ask for in a backup.

For the Colts,  being a back-up QB isn't only about how you play.     It's about what value you can add on the sidelines during games,   or in the locker-room,   or in practice,  and in meeting rooms.    How can the back-up help Luck.      And no one here knows what happens there........

The one into the end zone?     Where it looked like the receiver ran the wrong route?

 

You might want to consider just watching basketball.......     because you're not a geek about football.

I kind of feel sorry for people who start threads just to see if they can fire people up.  I usually ignore them.  However, if they're serious then I really feel sorry for them.

Blaming the WR? Lmao. A real Qb cannot make that throw there period. Just threw it in the corner for the db to get. Awful throw

When you call for a fade in the corner of the EZ and the WR doesn't run that route,   then the play looks ridiculous......       the WR was no where near where the ball was.    Totally lost.

 

The DB had some sense and made the easy pick.      This is not all on the QB.

 

People who understand football know this.       People who don't,  well,  don't.

 

Guess which category you fall into?

Well a real QB obviously can make the throw you saw it with your own eyes hopefully he can learn from his mistake & show better judgement in the future IMO both back ups were kept because the coaches are not sold on 1 over the other just yet I can't recall the last time the Colts had more than 2 QB's to start the season . I don't expect 2 will be carrying clip boards for long its a one man job .

And if there is a better QB on the waiver wire right now that they want, they'll put in their waiver claim. If they get that player, then he'll be added of,the active roster tomorrow and either Morris or Tolzien will be cut.  Because that's how the waiver wire works. 

 

So your point about there being better QBs on the waiver wire is completely irrelevant to the fact that tolzien made the roster. None of the QBs on the waiver wire could possibly replace tolzien on the roster until tomorrow.  I'm afraid you blew your wad prematurely.

I guess Rick Venturi, a former NFL coach, doesn't understand football then. I'm sure you have worked several years for an NFL team to be so qualified here.

    • I think you understood his words in a "positive" way, but that's not what he said.   He DID NOT say that "most of you would choose to get married..."   That's your implication. Of course, only women can bring children in this world and most of the women will choose to be married and have children, but that's not exactly what he said.   He said, "doing so - while some others will go on to lead successful career in the world - will take you closer to God's Will"    Here's what he said from the transcript:    He could've said, "even if you go on to have a very successful career, and get the greatest accolades of the world, I think the most important title of a woman is :  Homemaker. And, that would take you closer to God's Will"    But, he didn't say so because he wanted to say exactly what he believes women should do and brought God into that by saying that's His Will.    I think he made a mistake of implying that women are generally excited about marriage and having kids and being a homemaker, when that's only part of a woman's life - even though that could be the most cherished and blessed part of the life.   He only looked at how that made his wife's life - his words, not his wife's words by the way - and projected that to all the women. 
    • This happens every single year and every single year people worry about the occasional unsigned rookie when we haven't even gotten into June yet.   Guys/gals... it's really a big nothing burger. Ever since the NFL introduced rookie scale contracts this has been a non-issue. Everything important in those contracts has been made non-negotiable. The negotiable things are largely minutiae - it's about schedule of payment...it's about off-set language, or language about voiding salary payments(for example - can the team void payments for suspensions and stuff like that), etc.   There are two cases I remember in the last 10 years where this has become a problem and the player has actually missed training camp practices because of it - Joey Bosa(because of schedule of payments dispute) and Roquan Smith(because of dispute about the language about voiding payments for suspensions because of play). And as you see... Both of those were top 10 picks. (i.e. more money on the line)...   Holdouts/holdins of day 2 and day 3 picks are pretty much unheard of. I personally couldn't find a single case when I looked for it.    AD seems to be taking part in both rookie mini camp and in OTAs and hasn't missed any practice, we haven't heard about any sort of dispute so far, so my assumption would be there is nothing to see here and it's all formality.    So yeah... Unless we hear there is a problem I would just assume everything is good.
