Wentz updates?

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I just saw where some running back is week to week with a high ankle sprain. Hopefully we can win Sunday and he either plays or only out a game.

Wentz should be sidelined until the OL is back to standard. The benefit is regaining your 1st round pick and Eason and Ehrlinger gets real game experience. They lost the division so kiss it good bye to the playoffs. 

After two losses to two very good NFC teams and only one game behind the Chiefs, Bills and Titans in the AFC.   Sorry no tanking for me with 15 games to go.  You need to take a Xanax and relax.  Lol.  Looong way to go.

It was a good question. 

Well I’m sure you believe that to be true, but the Colts don’t answer to the media or work on their timeline. The tone and disrespect was definitely not needed, I’m glad Frank handled like a professional.  
 

And Doyle showed his hand, he is just upset the national media will get it before the locals. I’d make damn sure of it after that. 

[GoColts8818]

Greg Doyle would have never survived with Polian.  He hated Kravitz and Kravitz is nothing compared to Doyle who thinks their is some conspiracy going on around every corner.

Doyle is a hack

Man. Doyel Vs. Polian would have been a spectacular feud

I don't like any of them regardless.

Not sure where a better list would be.

All the FA off season lists are pretty much forgotten about and outdated.

 

How about Bortles? He would come cheap. Mullens has experience and played pretty well when asked to play. They can't be worse than Scott Tolzien.

 

I like Sloter but he has not been able to stick anywhere.

Have we time warped back to 2017?! Wait given 2020 onward that might be quite nice...

so you’re telling me Luck hasn’t retired yet? I like where this may be headed 

[Btown_Colt]

Maybe we can bring back some Rolling ball of butter knives threads? @SteelCityColtwas right, it is 2017 again. 

[pgt_rob]

Maybe call up Charlie Whitehurst like old times. 

[holeymoley99]

Among NFL QB with at least 1,000 attempts all time Jacoby Brissett ranks #1 lowest  int % but no one really clamored for him or wanted him to be their starter though he is now possibly starting for 1 week minimum in Miami (Tua does not like to play through any type of pain, media all over him down here).

Non-Throwing shoulder is way different then your injuring your plant leg/foot.  

 

you don't think Stafford was in pain in that video?  He has a career in acting if you're right!

Reich said on the colts round table tonight they will treat Wentz ankle and see where it is Wed. Said it’s hard to tell the day after.

How about Frank Reich the old backup from Buffalo. At least wewould have a new play caller.

Not necessarily so. Frank is old school and back in his day I think the QB's called their own plays....it may have been more in prior era?

You might be right. Probably why he was a career backup!

There are a few guys that I have higher on the list with others, just no one I'd prefer over riding with Wentz. We know all those guys are severely limited in some shape or form based on the chances they got to play. I'd like to simply give Eason that same chance to see if he can develop a little bit. I have no delusion that he'll be the next Rodgers or anything, just want to see what he has.

If they beat the Titans they will be tied for the division lead.  It's not over yet.

Heck, if they start 0-5, the division is still within reach. The sky isn't falling yet folks.

We'll see, I think it will. 10 games may win this division. I think the Colts have shown (under Reich) the propensity to pick up steam and play HOT especially when the schedule eases up, They tend to pick up Ws including some against teams who folks expect them to lose to. \

Yeah, I'd love a sneaky win over Tompa Bay.

Agreed, we'll see. But it's bold to think anyone is digging out of 0-5.

[Myles]

I don't want the Colts to bring any other QB in.   Go with Eason and let's see what we have.

I've been pro Eason for some time. Might be totally wrong, but I like the arm and think he's going to need some live action to see if the rest of it clicks. Get the line right, lean on the run game, keep everything in front of him.. might be good enough to win a game or two if needed.

[coltsfeva]

  The thing that encourages me is that he stayed in the game, after his left ankle was injured.

   The injury to his right ankle could be anywhere from 5-12 weeks.

Where'd you get the second nugget? 

 

And he hurt his surgery foot/ankle (dunno if it's left or right off the top of my head) on a separate play earlier in the game, played through it?

He's making a light jab to the fact that Wentz and Nelson's earlier injuries were "5-12 weeks".

Straight over my head too.. dang it..

 

https://www.1075thefan.com/kevins-sports-news/colts/carson-wentz-has-two-sprained-ankles-status-in-doubt-for-sunday/

 

"The left ankle sprain for Wentz occurred early in Sunday’s loss to the Rams, with the right ankle injury being the one that knocked the QB out for good, near the mid-way point of the 4th quarter."

 

 

Dang.

[NorthernColt]

Honestly if Wentz is out for any length of time, going with Eason is a win win. For one, we get much closer to keeping our first rounder with Wentz being out. Secondly, you let Eason sink or swim. If he swims, you have a new future at QB. If he sinks, you know he ain't it, you lose games and our first rounder gets higher, letting us land another impact player.

 

Bottom line, this isn't a contender.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Even Pat Mcafee said Wentz played reckless Sunday. He explains how Wentz himself basically caused this injury.

What would you like him to do though? Its not him wanting to, but he hasn't even been finishing his drop back before the dlinemen are in the backfield chasing him out.

Watch the video. Pat explains it well how he could of avoided it. Basically stiff luck had to learn just go down and live for the next play. But he talks about how players who have had precious ACL tears typically do what he did.

Pat also used the bad shovel pass to explain his point about how Carson plays.  I'm concerned for myself, I agree with Pat .McAfee.

 

I'm all for signing Rivers for three games to show Carson how to play the QB position for a long time.

The play where Donald rolled him up, Doyle was open for the quick throw and he possibly isnt in this position. It looks like he pumped toward Doyle to. Of course no one can be 100% on what Wentz saw on the play

Anyways any new news on Wentz or any of our injured players?

 

 

I don’t think we will hear anything before Wednesday. The affected areas are probably too swollen to assess fully before then.
