Week 3 impressions: Brissett

[GoColts8818]

Best game of his career IMO.  He rebounded nicely from last weeks second half with holding the ball too long.  It was out of his hands fast and he looked in charge today.  Great game from him.  Best game a Colts QB has played in a long time.  It wasn’t just his throws it’s where he put them too, Loften Did a great job highlighting that on TV.

[Imgrandojji]

Wow!

[Fisticuffs111]

Week 3 impressions? Impressed.

[Calmack]

Not bad. 

[Imgrandojji]

He put the team on his back today.  Could easily have scored on that final drive, which means he only had 1 unproductive drive all afternoon.

 

Particularly impressive because he did most of his carrying in the second half without his usual binky.  He really distributed today

 

If this is who he really is, then we don't have to worry about the QB position for awhile.

[Yoshinator]

Nice job by Brissett. Very impressed, especially early on. Hope he can keep it up! 

[Solon]

He's our quarterback going forward. He fits what Frank wants to do.

[adubb84]

Impressions? When does Kelly start?  He kicked some serious * today! Great win!

[VaAllDay757]

Yeah he did a great job....don't know what happened to the o-line today but in the 3rd quarter they looked real weak

[Imgrandojji]

they were up against a big physical d-line.

Kelly probably starts in the XFL

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Oline pass protected really well and he got the ball out quick.

[Colts_Fan12]

so good to see frank letting him loose today probably blow them out if not for our D struggles 

[BlueCollarColts]

He good

[colt18]

Brissett has been impressive.

 

This season could have been a disaster, so far it is shaping up to be very refreshing.

[IinD]

He can make all the throws. He was hitting guys perfectly in stride during the first half.

He's also decent at getting away from the rush.

Anthony had a tough stretch on the left side during this game. 

 

Plenty of positives to build on.

 

D's gotta be better though. They would have had Andrew sweating today.

[a06cc]

This teams really got something special the day they drafted Quenton Nelson 

[King Colt]

First half was as good as any could hope for. The Raiders are next in Indy. Colts good on the ground & air and so few penalties. Atlanta once again proved they can't win with the talent they have and have had in past years. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

 

[BlueCollarColts]

Chad Kelly would've thrown for 600 yards and 12 TD's

[waka waka]

taking advantage of the opportunity thought he looks well today. made some really great throws today. liked the play calling as well. i think JB will only get better with time in this system and more game play. What has been a bit of a surprise to me is how he improvises in the pocket. He's got a good feel for extending plays. 

[SteelCityColt]

Overall very impressed today, did well even under a lot of pressure.

I've said it is Rodgers like how he can extend  plays.

Stop!!!

 

At most like 450 with 4/5 TD's... Don't exaggerate.

In the 3rd quarter, didn’t the offense only run 3 plays?  Kind of difficult to conclude they looked weak, when it was only 3 plays. 

[SurfinKal]

Really enjoyed Jacoby's play today. He did a great job. Coach Reich's play calling was awesome as well. Chris Ballard is really putting together a great team. Future is bright for the Colts. 

[Coltsfan66]

I hope the NFL Network plays this as this out of network, cheap sob, wants to watch.

I actually find these sorts of comments to be very tiresome. Yes, I know it’s sarcasm, but really, is it necessary? <roll eyes>

We need a legit number 2 WR though its becoming clear its not going to be Cain.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

 

[Imgrandojji]

I'm betting Ballard's going to add a veteran wideout or two to the roster, especially if TY misses any serious length of time

Way to early to say that. We probably will have to bring someone in for next week.

[stitches]

Loved his accuracy and ball placement on multiple throws... and on variety of throws. This is a serious area where he's improved a ton from 2017 til now. It's usually not something QBs improve much, but I love what I see from him in that aspect. 

 

Another thing that cannot be understated - his pocket awareness and movement has been great. That's another thing that was a knock on him last time he started.

Who's out there that can replace TY, though?

Dez?  haha.

[IinD]

Gotta get my Phillip Rivers jersey out of the garbage.

Help us out Chargers..

You dont know that. Way to early, took Reggie Wayne about 2 seasons. I promise Cain will show up more as we play more games. So will Campbell.

Nobody.  We'd be adding depth, not talent off the top  Unless we pick up the crazy that is Antonio brown (and * NO!!!!!) there's no other way to do it

 

That said, if a team is fading at the deadline and wants to move some more expensive pieces we're in a great position.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I just hope TY didn’t tear anything. He probably shouldn’t of played looking back.

they are tough at home now they typically don't travel this well on the road this time of year but its hard to beat them at home as we should know.
