Are we talking about Kelly peacefully sitting on someone's couch and then leaving? Or about the time he ran onto the field to check on his little brother whose head was being kicked by a mob of opposing players? Or how about the infamous AK-47 incident in which only a single bar bouncer out of a crowd of people heard Kelly say he was going to spray the place with his rifle?

lol.....Brissett aint getting no hook in favor of inferior qbs like Brock Osweiller or Matt Cassell after 5 weeks time.   The Colts organization is alot more behind Brissett than many of you

Jacoby deserves a full season I think.  There is plenty of time to evaluate and decide what to do going forward.  Hes not going to come out of the gate and blow the league away.  Hes gonna make mistak

Nothing in Jacoby's past indicates he's more than a fill-in NFL starter.  Kelly is not a top prospect, but every team's fan base rallies around a young QB when the veteran is struggling.  Unless and u

First Off

 

JB DESERVES the starting spot.

 

As my other posts have stated, ( I was one of the ones who thought he was worth a 2nd or 3rd round pick in trade.....  :) )  

 

In regards to Chad Kelly, If we start with a line up of losses, I am the first to say give him a chance to play

 

He seems to have ALL the skills that an elite QB needs to have

 

Skills do NOT equal NFL production. 

 

Can he curb the ego? Can he NOT drink? (He is clearly a bad drunk) Can he listen to what the Coaches say? Can he control himself (do you remember Ryan Leaf's ourburst on a reporter?)

 

An enormous ego, can WRECK a locker room.

 

We have had this guy in a Colts Jersey for a short time.

 

My hope is.......  he works out....... But, he doesnt just get handed the keys to the car


For those that havent read these posts, here are some links on Kelly

brissett's a character guy.  Most of his raw physical attributes are pretty solid but not spectacular.  Where he shines is between the ears.

 

We saw this guy at his worst and rawest in 2017 and he still managed to put his team in position to win games more often than not, only to have a lot of games taken away from him at the last minute.  He's not an elite talent but he's a great leader and manages a good game, and he has a decent if somewhat inaccurate arm.  He deserves a chance.  He's absolutely capable of leading a team and I know that if he winds up on the outs here, he'll be starting somewhere else next year.

I imagine a look at the W-L record in those first ever games by those rookies would be illuminating

I agree about Brissett. 

Is anyone here forgetting that Reich is IMO somewhat of a QB Whisperer? Wasn't he the one whispering into Nick Foles' ear the year he took the Eagles to the SB and won??

 

What could Reich do for Brissett?

      Did you miss Buckner's new extension? The one with the large signing bonus and void years?

      I like Latu, but don't you think there's a significant number of teams that are scared off by his medical? And then a couple more who will downgrade him because of his age?

      Colts have the 15th pick in the draft. (MERGE)

      By Jason_ · Posted

      yeah pretty much what I figured.  If they are going to start mixing up coverages and running more man coverage, then sure grab a CB in the first.  If they're going to continue being a mostly zone team regardless, then no, no round 1 CB.

      The mission is to build something that has us competing with the best of the best. This is a season for AR to get tuned up.  Who do you think will be the right guys on our roster now to take us to an AFC Championship game?  It's not Smith, Fries, and we likely can't get there with more than 2-3 of our current back seven.  I would offer Buckner to the Bears as part of a trade for 9. Eberflus wants to have a great D so maybe he bites.  Then hopefully trade back 2-3 spots for a good pick.  I'd love to come out of the draft with Latham and the Byron Murphy II. And come out of the draft with RG Bebe.

      I think he's a little overrated as a corner prospect. Doesn't mean I don't like him, I do. But I was hearing about how incredibly athletic he is, people were talking about him like he was a lockdown defender, then I watch him for a couple games and I don't see that. So at first I was pretty down on him. Then I went back and watched him with my expectations much lower, and I see what he has to offer.   He's definitely athletic, but not the standout, premier athlete people were making him out to be at first. Watching his high school basketball videos helped me contextualize his athleticism, there's plenty of burst there. He has some struggles flipping his hips and staying connected late in the down. He's feisty and physical, plays the run with enthusiasm, tackles well, and he has explosiveness. He's better in shorter areas when he doesn't have to try to keep up with a receiver with elite speed. I know he ran 4.43, but it wasn't a pro day, it was a private workout. I discount timed speeds at pro days, and definitely at private workouts. To me, he's closer to 4.5 than 4.4, and that's what I expected when watching him play.   To me, he's a safety/nickel prospect, not a boundary corner. And if he were looked at as a boundary corner, I think his arm length would probably disqualify him for the Colts, at least in the first round. And I think the Colts already view corner as a Day 2 position. He's said all the right things about playing multiple positions. And while I don't know how the new rules will affect kickoffs, I think it makes sense to have good options at returner, so that helps his stock as well. But I think the second round is the right range for him. If we drafted him, I think we still need a boost on the outside.
