Despite everything, with the Houston loss we are still #7 and after we beat Pitt next week, we will be #6 at worse. Pitt isn't anywhere near as talented as Cincy is. We have just won 4 in a row, not sure why anyone needs to be this ridiculous over 1 loss. I have never seen anything like this in all my years here. I even said before the game we may lose because Cincy needed this a lot more than us. The loss doesn't prove anything to me 1 way or the other. We had a bad game it happens.

Who called him elite?

quite a few people on this board, and not only on the board, but on multiple different sports show, some even saying he might start somewhere next year. 

 

elite backup

 

not just elite

4th & 15 and Minshew takes a sack - he should've chucked it up there and hoped for a PI call, even a pick 30 yards downfield would be better than giving Cincy the ball where we did.

He didn’t have time.  It’s not just Minshew struggling today.  The whole team is.

I mean he did just last week.

So where is it at today?  Where’s Pierce?  He refuses to navigate the pocket. I almost wish we had a chance to see Sam. Just to add in that dimension or rolling the QB or more run threat to the defense.

Last year we lost and non competitive in many crazy ending games

 

this year we are in games for the most part Winning close games Fighting to get a playoff spot

 

Part of the growing process is your ability to mentally prepare for the next game Most of our mistakes/penalty are mental lapses 

 

at this stage of our growth and after 4 wins in a row we could not handle the mental aspects of continuing our winning ways regardless of the strength of schedule 

 

all teams have the athletes it’s the teams that are more mentally prepared that win

I said it earlier, but I was worried the team started getting a little too much confidence and it feels like they came into this game thinking they'd be stomping a back-up QB led Bengals.

I don’t understand why we just didn’t punt and get out of there. Don’t make this worse then it is.

It's a 3 possession game. You have to at least try for it.

What’s left?  You can’t touch them at all?

I have no clue. And for the record, I don’t want any new ones. I just have a feeling with now 55 plus QBs hurt this year, far more than any year in league history, it’s going to be looked at closely

Clearly they haven’t played well today I am not disputing that but to say he cant/never does it isn’t true.  They are having an awful day today from top to bottom.

Hell Browning is a FA at end of year.


This is some to keep an eye on because from what I have seen, Browning seems to play the position better than what’ve seen from Minshew.

 

Backup QB is going to be a critical position for us due to AR’s style of play, skill set and lack of game experience

Please please please allow this. Let him go be a starter somewhere not Indianapolis. Take his former Headcoach with him too.

If Browning keeps playing like he has the past two weeks he’s going to get look at a starting job.

Cross has been on the field.  He’s playing safety.  I am tired of Baker too but they need Brents back.  Hopefully he’s back next week.

We need Brents, but I don’t think he would’ve help with all the time he’s missed this season

I have never once said Minshew was elite. I have always said great backup and above average starter that has played good football at times. So don't include me on whoever said that. As a matter of fact, most people in here thinks  Minshew stinks, read the posts. I defend him when people post dumb bullcrap like that. Plain and simple.

    • Regardless of how good the Lions are playing it would be out of the leagues character for a team like them to make it to the Super Bowl. 
    • The same was said about Lamar Jackson.....remember polian said he should try and play another position not QB ???   Just because someone is uber athletic doesn't mean they can't play QB.  Now I'm not saying AR will be or never will be  a quality QB in this league. I don't know.   He certainly has the athletic part going for him. BUT going against him is the lack of reps and experience coming out of college, thrust into the starting role right away, missing games due to injury and last but not least the lack of QB friendly plays  and coaching from Steinchen. If he's not acting like a professional on and off the field then it's on them to teach him on how to... you'd think the #4 overall pick would get the teaching he deserves. Sounds like he's a extremely young player lacking and the colts are failing him.    On Arians, I didn't click link to read the story.  Regarding bringing him back in some capacity, I remember when he was here Colt Fans wanted him replaced because he would call long pass plays that took extra time for the OL to pass block for and it was feared Luck would get killed waiting for the plays to develop. Little did we know back then that snowboarding would also be a major factor in his health.
    • It depends on who is the current QB. If AR is the QB, probably a 3, as I know there is something to play for, and even though the FO is terrible, if AR could potentially improve, that would be the quickest way to be relevant again if we won with him. If Flacco is our QB, it's a 1. I have no interest in watching the team with Flacco as the QB and I didn't even watch the Colts on Sunday Night Football even though I could have. I have gone through the band-aid QB process since Rivers, and he was the only positive to come out of it and we didn't have a highly drafted, possible franchise QB we were trying to develop at the time. It's bad enough when AR is injured and he can't play, now he just isn't starting for a number of reasons, and it's taken any interest out of caring for this team out of me until AR starts again, or until Ballard gets fired at the end of the year.
    • Belichick without Brady? Not good at all.   Gruden? His lighting up like a X-mas tree whenever there's a camera around gets old quick.  Plus his long term record is very poor. 
    • You want Belicheck or Gurden? Why? They were terrible for years. Why do you think their unemployed
