Jacoby Brisset starting

[Indiana V2]

Per NFL app Brissett is starting for the Colts. Hallelujah, the Tolzien era is over. Now to end the Pagano era.

Per Ian Rappaport Jacoby is starting on Sunday. Well hallelujah. Go Colts

[sherck]

At least we will back the defense off a bit. Noodle arm Tolzien could not press the ball more than 10 yards pass the LoS at NFL velocities.

Walk Worthy,

Thank god

At least some interest and hope for this game now.

Just don't get hurt.

[Brylok]

Good. Instead of 41-12 Cardinals it will be 35-17. Still glad it's not Tolzien.

At his 1:00 press conference Clappy was asked to confirm the Ian Rappaport report re Brisset starting and he Refused to confirm or deny.......smh, the game playing continues.

Well it is not like he is a fantasy option.

So, no one has told him yet? Hang in there Chuck, it's a need to know situation.

Very pleased with this news. Not demanding much from Brisset under the circumstances but excited nonetheless. Additionally, any move that proves Pagano is incapable of making sound decisions regarding the starting lineup is a plus in my book.

[omahacolt]

not surprising

he will be terrible as well though

He just stays in his lane.

[1965southpaw]

One of the reporters that coveres the Colts (forget which one) said that Chud has been studying how the patsies used Jacoby when he covered for the cheater.....basically implemented a college style read option offense....and plans to steal a page from their playbook. Also, supposedly Brisset was told on Monday he'd be getting the start and got 80 percent of the first team reps. We will see what he does with this....I don't expect us to win but I hope we will at least be competitive.

Probably, but potentially more enjoyable to watch and hopefully gives the Colts a slightly better chance to win. I would be happier if they just went ahead and cut Tolzien and brought Morris back to be the clipboard holder.

morris won't be back. i assume he has a mental issue with the playbook.


i agree though. this will be interesting. this kid can play and we can see what our trade got us.

that said. he hasn't been here long, he is inexperienced, and our line is jacked. i don't expect he will do well this year at all. but looking forward to signs that the kid can play

He's been too busy this week gameplanning for the Vikings to be bothered with this detail. :D

[bertjones]

It'll be interesting. He brings another dimension and his last pre season
game with NE was impressive. In our hearts we'd like some sort of
fairy tale outcome where against the odds he leads this team to some
improbable run. More likely the headwinds that are blowing against this
team remain in force but he still shows that he is a worthy backup and potential
starter down the road.

[FatDT]

My only expectation of Brisset is that he's significantly better than Tolzien. With his own inexperience, bad OL, lack of prep, bad coaching to deal with, and a good AZ defense, I don't expect a win or even a good game from him.

[albany ed]

The scouting report on him says he's accurate on the short stuff with good zip on the ball, but when throwing deep, he's not too accurate.

The way our coaching staff will respond is trying to fool them by always going long.
