Dacoltsboi Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 If the Colts win out, and Brissett plays much better with key weapons returning (Hilton, Campbell, Funchess,), will you guys be convinced that he could be the future? Or would you still want a change at quarterback? Or would you give him until after next season to make a decision? I’m not talking about just winning with our run game. I’m talking about consistent 200-300 yard efficient games with a BALANCES run-pass offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most love to blame JB for everything but his WR core has been banged up or missed games most of the year in reality. Even Ebron has played injured and is now gone. To the OP, some already have their minds up that JB stinks after playing in only 9 games so unless he and the team wins the SB they won't change their mind.

I still think we can win, we are at home which should help. We have had a long rest which should help our Line and JB. I also think the players know this is a must win situation so they should play inspired. If the defense can get a turnover early and we can get a lead, that will be huge because then they may start passing a lot and not let Henry try and control the game. Our defense definitely needs play a great game for us to win this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2006Coltsbestever Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 When I look at JB, I am going by what he accomplishes under Frank Reich and playing with a great O.Line. That is this year only going into next year. I am not sure any QB with the team and coach we had in 2017 could've made the playoffs. Tom Brady would've had problems on that squad . We were more talented in 2016 and even had Luck but went 8-8 that season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not the same JB, he has played well at times this season and when he has started and finished games we are 6-3. He played lousy last week at Houston, it happens. To me 9 games just isn't enough of a sample size. I need to see how tomorrow plays out and the rest of the season plays out. I almost feel sorry for any rookie coming in here if we do draft one with the way our fanbase is. If we play a rookie or even Kelly and start the season 1-5 or so, man talk about piling on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble getting off his first read, holds the ball too long, and doesn’t take chances down field. Everyone was hoping he had improved in these areas. JB isn’t a rookie he’s had plenty of game experience and sitting a year behind Brady and then luck, he’s had time to learn. Now the injuries have not helped him at all.

I do agree with, he holds on to the ball too long and even misses guys down the field at times per the All-22. Actually over half the QB's in the league do that though. Luck even held on to the ball too long at times IMO. Reich is a good coach, maybe he can come up with something where JB is throwing more quick slants and screens. That is a great question, why aren't we throwing more screens to guys like Hines for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No QB is perfect, at times they will all hold on to the ball too long, and they will all occasionally miss wide open targets. Every single one of them. The problem is that this season JB hasn't found them at all. He is not occasionally missing them, he is always missing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luck held onto the ball to long but he was waiting for a route to develop or a receiver to come open. JB has receivers open and just isn’t getting the ball out. There is a difference. I believe you know this. Comparing Luck holding the ball to JB holding the ball is apples to oranges. I agree with you about the slants and screens.

Restinpeacesweetchloe Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 The chances are we are going to be very run heavy the rest of the season. Reich knows we don’t have the skill players to throw the ball a ton. The only way to keep us in games is to run the ball. Otherwise we will lose by 3 TD. So I don’t think we will see Jacoby have big stats and change anyone’s mind. What he has to do is make the few critical throws when needed. Which he has done quite a few times in our wins this year. He just needs to keep us ahead of the chains. No negative run plays. And for gods sake use Hines for quick passes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoose Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Well, it would be nice to see Reich get creative with the play calling. Why isn't Hines being used more as a slot guy? Why don't they target Doyle excessively? He's open regularly. Give Jacoby some new plays and lets see what happens. I think a creative, let's open the playbook approach might pay large dividends.

I really hope now that we aren’t worried about getting Ebron the ball Doyle gets more catches. Hines is a mystery to me. I have no clue why Reich is not using him more after last year. He is barely on the field. He is the only guy left with speed. Hines can do everything Campbell did in that Steelers game. Have we even seen him on a jet sweep.

Restinpeacesweetchloe Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I don’t think we will have to trade up to get a QB. Unless he gets some inside info the guy he wants is going to go before we pick. Love really needs to sit a year and the teams ahead of us will probably want day one starters. That is if Love turns out to be the guy they want. One team I could see trading way up for a QB is the patriots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
