I'm so glad that the Colts decided not to spend all that money they had to spend.  maybe if they would have went out and got some more quality people they what be stuck playing rookies who obviously don't seem like they're ready to play., and the Colts wouldn't and be in this damn situation

I think Ballard made a miscalculation with not really replacing our only real starting caliber NT if he was gonna let our only one go in FA.   

 

I think we're stuck at QB.... Brissett is solid, but is he just good enough to get you to also ran status?  Unfortunately, solid QBs put you out of range to get better than solid qbs

If we had Luck, I would not be worried at all... But he gone....

He'd be just as likely to throw a game changing int..... Great as he was, he did that about four times a year.... 

 

Also, luck never prevented us from falling far behind in games..... To have that many comeback wins, you have to fall that far behind

Worryingly that the's the comparison I've made before in my head.

I think fans need to step back.  This is not a super bowl or bust team.  It is an evaluation year especially for Brissett.  I have never been a fan of him even after Houston.  I believe that when he has to go off script, he runs into trouble. He pulls down the ball a lot and that is either a sign that no one is open or he cannot hit his 3rd or 4th read.  More concerning is that it could b both hahaha. Denver is very good on D but guys got to b open

    • It would  be the rookie. We will see but I think smith will play. Lewis might miss.
    • The only two I feel might miss are Paye and Kenny.  I think everyone else plays.  
    • Freeland wasn’t even active for the first three games.  I see Goncalves getting the reps not Freeland.
    • It’s unfortunate when they just got their first win. If Lewis and paye can’t go we basically only have one DE. No rotation so Steelers will just wear this term down. I was do excited for this game now I am really mad. I was really looking forward to it. The offense might be able to make up for defense but not if Kelly and smith can go.
    • This is where quality of your coach is so important.  And I think Shane is a quality coach to handle this situation.  Also I agree he is doing it right.  It's ugly, but he is balancing a big investment at QB with his job security which is very tough.   Running QBs often reach that point where the staff decides they are never going to learn to win from the pocket, and it is then you see the scheme revert back to college type approach and general simplicity to allow them to translate to the field.  But to get to that point you need to at least give the QB the opportunity.  Because once they do reach that point the team will usually be looking for another QB.   The way you build a perennial winner is finding a QB who can give you an edge from the pocket.  Given that, mobility and off schedule instincts are an advantage and desired.  But the latter will never trump the former because if your QB needs to be in space to see the defense and make his throws then defenses will be able to shut him down in the playoffs.  QBs like that don't win 3 or 4 games in a row against the best defenses in the league, which is required to hoist a Lombardi.   I mean look at Allen.  He developed the ability to win from the pocket.  He has had good teams around him.  He is a dominant run threat.  And he still has come up short in the playoffs.  When there are guys like him and Mahomes with rosters around them, you aren't gonna get past them with a QB who can't do the job from the pocket.
