Pierce has been better this year so far than last as he is making the catches he did not always make last year. If he continues, I will back off my stance as it would be warranted that I would be wrong about him. The one trick pony is only thrown out as I would like Pierce to open his route tree a little more and become more than just the guy who takes the top off. Hill used to be just that as an example, a deep threat guy, but he honed his entire tree and became elite. Will Pierce ever become Hill, probably not. However, I still would like to see more out of Pierce so his target share command would increase where he would be utilized all over the field. Time will tell -

Titans are a poor team. I expect the Colts will take care of business and get to 3-3. -

Opposing team average passer rating is a great stat in today's league, because it shows how hard your defense is on opposing QBs, which is an enormous piece of the defensive puzzle. Colts are 28th at 105.5, which is a terrible average performance to give up. Also points allowed tends to follow how good your defense is or isn't vs QBs. Which means, predictably, the Colts are ranked 24th and solidly in that bottom third of the league. On the plus side is the turnover margin of +.2, which puts them in the top half of the league. Looking at takeaways, they are T-8th at 1.6 per game. Of course that means that unfortunately giveaways they are 22nd at -1.4 per. Translation here is they need to improve in the secondary, few if any will be safe with those types of numbers. But also being safer with the ball on offense would help too. -

I have no worries about AR and this offense. That is the one part of this team I have no concerns about. -

Whenever a new GM comes in the HC who is in place will feel that. Just not being his selection to run the team and all that. But I think this coach has done a good job with the offense overall. He put up an 11th ranked offense in scoring last year with fumes at QB. And his current QBotF is looking like a guy who will need to run to move the chains. So I expect he is safe this offseason, and if the owner is angry about the QB they took the GM will own it. From there I expect he's going to need a QB to put up a consistently high end offense. But there is still time for this one to develop so we'll see.
