That sounds good but you have your starting quarterback hurt and you only get the dress 45 for every game? The kid has talent and he’s only gonna learn by playing but he’s not the reason the team lost. The starting quarterback got hurt, and the back up back threw a pick six. Special teams with a bad snap bad blocking, laces out Marino and that’s the ball game.

A lot of things went wrong in the game that rookie cornerback contributed but he was not the reason the Colts lost.

I’ll be the first to say it right now from the draft where ever the Colts wind up they should take some of those pics trade up and go get an honest to God edge rusher. A game changer, like Dwight Freeny.

He definitely isn't the reason for the loss but the starting QB being out has nothing to do with his bad technique.
I agree with your last point. We need a pass rusher, also need a WR or two.

did gbb really never come back after saying he was out?!

I plan on doing one tonight. I had plans to do them every week as well as an all 22 write up but unfortunately life has kind of got in the way.

I miss gbb’s write ups as well. He is on twitter and will do a brief breakdown occasionally.

This isn't an experience thing. It's a technique issue. It's a very basic technique issue. You learn that through practice, not gametime experience. Putting him out there only makes him a liability till he demonstrates he can actually utilize proper technique. And it isn't like we don't have another option, we have another high pick in Wilson just sitting there. Ya sin might have more long term potential, but right now he is a weakness that opposing offenses have earmarked. Next time we play a actually good QB, he will go after him.
