Hundley the backup

People keep claiming Ballard is a genius....sorry I don't see it!

The Colts officially made the roster move today; the corresponding move was to release DT Antwaun Woods.

This is the second time the Colts released Woods - the first time was when they moved Eric Fisher back to the active roster from the COVID Reserve list. In that instance, they were able to sign Woods back to the practice squad.

Try bifocals

backup qb position is terrible. ballard fucked that up

Because every team has a top notch nfl qb ready to play?

Keefer says it’s because Reich doesn’t trust his command of the offense.

Now, you can say Ballard shouldn’t have drafted a guy that dumb, but it seems just as likely that Reich isn’t coaching him up right.

Seems as much a coaching problem as a general manager problem.

if he doesn't understand the offense after a year, how is he your #2 going into the season?

i doubt they haven't explained the offense to the guy

He has a big arm, an nfl plus arm. Thats what they drafted, with the idea they had time to develop it. In two years the Colts have barely had 1 normal camp. And that kid from texas might know the offense and can read defenses, but he doesnt have the arm to be an nfl starter

Who cares hopefully he won’t see the field anyway

Have you seen who our QB is? Our back has a very high chance of seeing some playing time.

It's starting to become real concerning with Ballard picks.

Especially watching all these other players over the past several years (guys available for Colts when they picked) become great players for other teams. While guys Ballard picked are either always hurt or haven't developed into much yet.

Wentz hasn't missed a game due to injury since 2018. He has missed 8 games out of 80 regular season games since his career started.

Yeah he is wreckless and plays hero ball all times but the guy isn't soft as a majority of fans have said.

I think the Colts are going to shock the Ravens tonight and Wentz will play lights out. I'm probably dead wrong with that feeling lol.

I don’t think he’s soft physically. I’m starting to believe he’s just not a winner. He seems to be a guy there will always be an issue with. Just something. In less than a quarter of a season he’s missed nearly all of training camp with an injury, missed a week of practice because of his selfish anti-vax stance, missed the potential game winning drive in one game due to injury, and been limited in two more games due to the same injury (one severely limited). Yeah hasn’t missed a start, but you can’t convince me the Colts have been improved by his presence. Throw in that it seems very likely the team doesn’t have a capable backup because of needing to make sure he knows he’s the man and he has been a train wreck so far for this team. Kinda like he was in Philly. At some point guys are just who they are. I hope I’m wrong, but it is starting to look like Philly was right about him.

I want to go on the record and say I also have a feeling that the Colts are going to show up tonight...their defense will be good enough, the offense just needs to get 21-24 points to win this game!

Ravens will put up more than 40 on this defense, so to win, we need six touchdowns.

You know what this means....one of us is going to be very wrong tonight!:eek:

Dude probably used a blue font at size 4.5

Remember When: Star FB Ernie Nevers Scores 40 Points in a Single Game

Just ribbing you. It’s not your fault we are all old guys with bad eyes.

I continue to be confused by the Wentz detractors – is there something he’s done with the Colts to deserve all the negativity? This all seemed to start when he played hurt (and admittedly not very well) in the Titans game, but I find it hard to be critical of him for that – the guy was plainly gutting it out.

Take that game away, and by my calculations all the guy has done is throw for a 5-1 TD-INT ratio in three games, and complete 69 of 101 passes for 726 yards (68.3% completion ration, 7.2 YPA). All the while dodging a constant flood of onrushing defenders. Spread over a 17-game schedule, that’s the equivalent of a 28-6 TD-INT ratio, and would result in over 4,100 yards passing. It’s not too far off from his 2017-2019 production level (avg 34 TD-9 INT, 4400 Yds adjusted for 17-game season). Maybe I'm crazy, but it stands to reason that he’d do even better with a functioning offensive line, but so far we haven’t gotten to see that.

Based upon the season so far, I don’t see how Wentz has demonstrated that he’s an obstacle to the Colts’ success so far, or any reason to think that he can’t be an asset to a successful team (or, for that matter, that there was a better option this last offseason). Yes, it sucks that he’s apparently an anti-vaxxer, but I don’t think the criticism of his on-field play is warranted.

Well said.

I’m not sure Wentz is the long term answer at quarterback but he’s sure as hell not been the problem so far. He’s actually been really good for the most part.

this is clearly the reason

Cya.

Too many mean people here for me.

Don't let the idiots here bother you, more good here than bad... :cool:

Noooo. Don't go. We need more Cali fans here. I'm in San Diego. Getting ready for the Monday nighter in an hour. Please Colts don't screw this up.

And members wonder why new people dont stick around

Ha!

I'm pretty sure he was just kidding....they were making fun of the font he used.:confused:

The Colts have released Hundley. Ehlinger is officially now the backup QB.

No one really knows. But one of the knocks on him going back to college was he didn’t know the playbook. And if he didn’t know it here after a year and a half then he would be gone. They won’t tolerate laziness.

My only question is if he didn’t know the playbook, shouldn’t they have already known that we’ll before game 2?

It's either laziness or he just isn't a very smart person. If Sam E was helping him try to learn the playbook, that's one big ass red flag.

Glad they let Hundley go, he's useless. Rather see what Sam has, than a retread like Hundley.

Maybe, hard to fake that during camp if you’re taking all the snaps. Perhaps he didn’t prepare for the game and didn’t know the wrinkles they put in place that week. Either way, I don’t think it was his performance, I think it was something behind the scenes that got him in the doghouse.

I was hoping that any roster moves would lead to Coutee playing on TNF.

I'm done with Dulin on offense.

With TY Hilton being ruled out, I think Coutee will play in TNF. I would bet he is one of the two players elevated from the practice squad for Thursday's game.
