So you think Minshew wouldn't have a loss if he had played in the Rams game? Yeah right. Once again, the usual suspects giving Minshew all the credit for holding on to the lead, while giving AR zero credit for what he did. We get it, you hate AR.

Was it 51 yard TD run? Did he get to 200 all purpose yards? But nah yea proof was in the pudding today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hate that it's an excuse for all of the haters to come out and proclaim how great Minshew is and how much AR sucks. That's not the case. If Minshew was our full time starter, our ceiling would be making the playoffs and losing in the first round. AR's ceiling ism much higher than that, but he has to stay healthy. As others have said, no more designed run plays. Use his athleticism and quickness to extend a passing play or gain a few yards on a broken play.

This game and titans game we won with defense and FG. The 4-1 Chiefs aren’t winning by scoring 30 plus all the time. They’ve scored 30 points only once versus the hapless Bears. That’s the NFL. You score in the range of 25 points, you have got a good chance with timely defense. Running the ball well gives you a chance to control tempo.

masterlock Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I want to see Richardson out there if he can be, but I have to say, I do feel confident in Minshew when he's out there.

Nickster Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 3 hours ago, Myles said: AR has missed a lot of time That’s about 2 TDs per game. When you watch Minshew, the passing game is clearly more efficient as as a passer, just as the passer rating suggests. The offense opens a little. AR is a little less in QBR so the overall play is closer. AR has not been great. He’s been encouraging in ways. His numbers are OK, his play is OK. He really struggles outside the numbers. He throws over the middle well. He moves and runs well but so far plays recklessly and gets hurts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breeze Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 This is certainly not the place to come to for therapy! A lot of negative, which you’d expect from opposing fans trolling and hoping AR is not the guy, but not from Colts fans. Left the game yesterday thrilled with getting the win, happy that we have a backup that can come in seamlessly, and nervous that AR will have a long recovery, missing much needed reps this season. Should’ve simply dropped when the play wasn’t there instead of taking on 2 defenders, but hopefully that’ll be addressed. This thread ranges from AR sucks to he’s OK to he’s generational. For now, we’ll have to trust a well respected coaching staff getting paid to make the decisions on what is best for the franchise. Good problem to have, a young dynamic QB who is way ahead of the curve (I’d heard he was wildly inaccurate and hadn’t learned the position, needing up to 3 years to make a difference), and a very good backup we can trust to get it done (I’d heard he was never going to be more than a career backup). The best part is since we’re not quite there yet to battle the elites like SF or KC, and others in the top tier, we’re afforded the opportunity for this team to grow this year while still achieving exciting wins no matter who is behind center. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
