So all new questions for the season
 
A few things come to mind now with the totally unexpected news about Luck :

When Reich was hired they said he was the only candidate that did not ask one question about Andrew Luck. Good thing that was the case

Ballard recently said more trades could be made before the season. Whole slew of possibilities for that now

Seriously is Chad Kelly or Brissett the better choice as the starter? Brissett has the experience but I wouldn't be shocked to see Kelly get a shot at some point.

Is it four games he is suspended?

Two games.

Maniac 08-24-2019 10:42 PM

Kelley looked like a decent option. Who knows. I am depressed.

GoBigBlue88 08-24-2019 10:42 PM

Unfortunately, I think the Colts will be just good enough to not draft a franchise QB...

DrSpaceman 08-24-2019 10:43 PM

I guess he does have the two game suspension. (Kelly)

rcubed 08-24-2019 10:45 PM

It will be brissett the whole season. They will Look for a more permanent replacement after the season.

Going to have to draft one, or trade up.

Then have to go through the rookie year growing pains.

Then the next year to see if he grew and is any good.

Then maybe start to talk about getting good again. Meanwhile, our LT will be likely done so have to find a new one. TY will likely be done or close to done. So need a new number 1 receiver. Houston gone. Any guy that is right around 30 probably won't be here.

This is a bad dream right? I need to wake up.

I think they'll be in a position to lean on defense and running game, tbh.

But yes, the age of OL + proven skill position players doesn't line up with a 2020 QB. They'll have to keep drafting well, of course.

So, how’s does this effect the salary cap.

Colt Classic 08-24-2019 11:13 PM

This would be a situation where Kaepernick would be less of a focus with his statement he's trying to make simce the focus would be on replacing Luck.

These guys still think Luck is coming back. If anything, he'd go to another team when that becomes possible.

I really think Brissett is as good if not better than Kap especially considering how long Kap has been out of football and the fact he was not really that good.

Irsay can't put 2 words together without saying umm.

DrSpaceman 08-24-2019 11:54 PM

God damn now if we have to deal with these fucking Kap questions on top of everything else.

Don't want him. Tired of hearing about him. Next question, its a no.

He hasn't played in the NFL for years for one.

Second, he is not that good to begin with

Third.......god I hate the drama around it. I don't care if he kneels or tries to suck his own cock during the anthem, I am just tired of hearing about it.

Ballard, man, really feel bad for him. First that dipshit from NE last year and now this.

Ballard more than anyone is becoming my hero for the team.

Luck4Reich 08-24-2019 11:57 PM

Ballard will find a QB that is not a pussy.

After watching this, I am so glad Ballard is in charge.

I'd rather tank the season if there is good draft.

I don't see Brissett lasting the whole season.
Kelly will get some playing time sooner or later.
My guess is "sooner" and a whole lot of playing time.

If Brissett doesn't get better at getting the ball out you are probably right, he is his own worst enemy sometimes.

kitekrazy 08-25-2019 12:24 AM

Bringing of the idea of Kap brings an all time high to sports retardedness. I thought that was only for Kravitz.

Even if a player has been off the field for a year it's pretty hard to get into playing shape and part of that is taking an impact.

Why would anyone bring his name up as a solution?

Because the media loves the story and won't shut the fuck up about it.

If I'm a mod that's a lifetime ban for an idiotic suggestion.

Ok, I am giving you a lifetime ban.;)

Brylok 08-25-2019 12:58 AM

No questions from me, Colts are screwed. 3-13 or 4-12 at best

Chromeburn 08-25-2019 01:24 AM

5 wins. We are good, but not so good that we can overcome losing a franchise QB. Everybody likes Jacoby but he is not accurate enough to be a number 1. We play some tough teams this year.

Discflinger 08-25-2019 01:28 AM

That's probably about right.

Discflinger 08-25-2019 01:32 AM

Nope. 3-13

Butter 08-25-2019 01:36 AM

I will take the over on that.

VeveJones007 08-25-2019 01:48 AM

Feels like the appropriate time for the 2019 prediction thread. I think I’ll take them down from 11 to 6 wins. I do think there’s a chance Brissett could surprise and they win 8 or 9.

I'd rather not give up draft choices and end up with a "Jay Cutler". This is a situation where the Colts can't trade from strength. The asking price will be high.

I guess that must be the only alternative, sigh.

I feel like 8-8 is about right.

DrSpaceman 08-25-2019 01:40 PM

I brought up Eli before in some context

He is a free agent after this season, so would not likely have been trading for him before this year even if known earlier, not for one season.

Foles.....who knows? Would have been interesting to see if they brought him in had we known earlier given the relationship with Reich

JAFF 08-25-2019 02:56 PM

Two things a QB will need in this offense.

1. He's got to read the D
2. Be accurate with the ball. Even if it's a check down

If he can figure out what the D is doing, he can adjust. But he's got to hit the target. If he's a turnover machine, then the D can't hold up

This team doesn't need a big arm, they need an accurate arm

Thanks, big help

Pretty much what every QB on every team has to do.

You are a genius! Too much sarcasim?

With this D, and the O line (if healthy), the QB shouldn't gamble too much. He can be Tom Brady, a game manager.
