We went for like 5 days without a single post. Even with joint practices and a pivotal pre-season tilt, really quiet on here. There has been very little energy this offseason and now deep into camp, and to me, that says a ton as without question we are the most engrossed group of fans there is and even we seemingly don't really fucking care.
To me, it says that no one is going to be excited to watch a Daniel Jones led Colts team if that is the route they go. It also says that very few people are real excited to watch AR do things that AR does, despite his occasional super human plays- because they are just sugar highs.
I think Steichen and Ballard go with Jones simply as a desperate move to try to keep a paycheck coming. They both know this year, minus at least one playoff win, maybe 2, they are getting axed. Jones definitely would seem to give them the greatest odds at making that happen- Jones probably has a 40% chance of doing that and AR probably 30%. They both know there is no SB this year, they just need to get to the PO's and try to get a W. AR, he gives them the better shot at a SB at SOME point because with enough time he could have a season or two of sufficient play to do that, whereas Jones I don't think will ever provide that top side, but neither of them have the window available to sink another year into AR's intensive development.
I concur with the statement that when you have two QB's, you have none. I don't think we have a QB. I further don't really believe we have a coach, and I sure as hell don't believe we have a GM. If it's me, I start Leonard and try to win 2 games max. I aim for the # 1 pick and get this shit rebuilt from the bottom floor.

I can’t remember when I’ve been less enthusiastic about a season.
