Basically by your reasoning they should never have wasted their time with Rivers or Ryan. Then we’re never going to do anything other than make it harder to acquire their future QB. And sell tickets, like the Pacers.

Sigh, you keep trying to poke holes in it. It’s not that complicated. At least two years. They didn’t want a new QB every couple years. You’re saying they never should have bc of hindsight. At the time no one knew what the results would be. They were hoping for an Alex Smith n KC at the least, at most a Brady in Tampa or Manning in Denver type situation.
In hindsight maybe they should have bitten the bullet after Luck retired. But hindsight is 20/20 and Irsay didn’t want to go through a bunch of losing seasons.
They have more talent than the pacers did during their stretch of mediocrity.
