That would make me disinterested in football for at least 2023, probably well beyond.

It's more the combination. The Texans getting Stroud and the Colts getting Levis is about the worst possible long term outcome.

Noted. What if the Panthers go w/ Stroud, Texans Young, and Colts Levis? Will you give up then too, or do we strictly have to pull for Stroud to the Texans and Levis to the Colts?

I don't understand why you would want a decade plus of second to fourth place finishes either way. Bryce Young's size is at least a limitation to his growth potential, and while I wouldn't/hopefully won't be happy with him as the Texans starter, that's nowhere near as bad as the Texans getting CJ Stroud. As for the Colts, the best thing that can come of a Will Levis draft pick in my opinion is a high likelihood of being close enough to the #1 pick in the 2024 draft that if Caleb Williams and Drake Maye pan out as advertised, the Colts would have a shot at one of them. The problem with that is that the front office might be too stubborn at that point, decide to stick with Levis, and we're looking at another decade plus of futility while the Texans build something similar to the 2000s Colts.

The more Dam hates it, the more I’m convinced it’s actually a good idea.

I hope for his sake that we draft Levis and he ends up being as big of a bust as Trevor Lawrence is

Interesting how on a Colts message board several professed Colts fans seem to want the Jaguars starting QB to be a superstar and are buying into it fully after a half season of smoke and mirrors. Won't it be so great if Trevor Lawrence is the real deal? Then you can tell me how wrong I was while the Colts battle for third place in the AFC South every year for the next decade.

Good thing it was a smoke and mirrors show and a weak division that put the Jaguars in the playoffs. And the 4 INTs and 27-0 deficit in his first playoff game? That doesn't matter because ZOMG HE WON (with several massive assists from the referees), right?

Yeah, seems like most of the posters here seem to want a decade long run of AFC South dominance by the Jaguars and Texans. I'd rather the Colts return to their rightful place atop the AFC South, but that doesn't seem to be a popular thought around here recently.
