(vs. BILLS, 1/09) lll [Wild Card Playoff Game]


I thought that Rivers had a good game overall.

He did miss an open receiver on 4th-and-goal that would have been a TD and a 10-point lead for the Colts with less than 2 minutes to play in the first half ...... he also had some drops by receivers in key situations.

I would prefer to replace Rivers. He is not the reason we lost in the playoffs but I do not think he is capable of elevating his game to be the reason we win anymore. Lack of mobility is the huge flaw, Those last minute drive often depend on you qb escaping and making a play. We may end up with Rivers, he may be the best bet in the end. If he is our qb next year I don't think it bodes very well for this team.

In addition to the Colts, the article talks about the biggest decision(s) for the other 31 teams throughout the NFL in regard to free agency.



NFL Free Agency 2021: Biggest Upcoming Player Decision(s) for All 32 Teams

(EPSN's NFL Nation)

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...n-all-32-teams




INDIANAPOLIS COLTS ) (By Mike Wells)

Quarterback Philip Rivers. ) Rivers has told the Colts that he's "not 100% sure" that he wants to play an 18th NFL season. The two sides will take the next month to decide which direction to go. The Colts want Rivers, 39, but they aren't going to sit back and wait on him to make up his mind. They'll be evaluating quarterbacks around the league, and continue scouting potential draft picks. If Rivers does not return, the Colts could have their 3rd different starting quarterback in as many seasons, because Jacoby Brissett is heading into free agency.

Default Rules question

I'm pretty sure the rule for a QB running outside the tackles can throw the ball past the LOS to avoid a loss of yardage and no grounding will be called. Can a running back do the same thing? I've seen running backs go out of bound or get tackled behind the LOS and I always think, why not just throw the ball forward and out of bounds to avoid that loss? Can they do that?

Imagine it is possible, but great chance there will be an illegal receiver downfield if they do?

You nailed it....you know when I saw this, for a moment I was hoping we had fired Reich and hired Philip Rivers as the coach, I would be OK with that at this point!

I don't believe that the Colts have been in non-stop quarterback hell since Andrew Luck's retirement.

I think that the Colts have had 2 years out of the last 4 in quarterback hell ...... 2019 was quarterback hell with Jacoby Brissett, and 2021 was quarterback hell with Carson Wentz.

I don't believe that 2020 with Philip Rivers was quarterback hell ...... Rivers was solid, the Colts went 11-6 overall, and they took the Buffalo Bills right down to the wire in a playoff game on their homefield in New York State.

I also don't believe that 2022 is necessarily quarterback hell, either ...... 2022 is unquestionably, without a scintilla of a doubt, OFFENSIVE LINE HELL. The fact that the Colts have managed to somehow not lose 4 of their games so far (3 wins and 1 tie) is a minor miracle.

Last year, the Colts' offensive line was among the top-3 in the NFL ...... this year, their offensive line is the worst in the entire NFL. There is no doubt in my mind that if Matt Ryan had LAST YEAR'S OFFENSIVE LINE in front of him, the Colts would be either 8-1 or 7-2 right now. He would still be out there calling the plays, and Sam Ehlinger would still be holding a clipboard on the sideline.

There is also no doubt in my mind that if Matt Ryan had been the Colts' quarterback last year instead of Carson Wentz', the Colts would have won at least 2 more games than they did, maybe even 3 ...... they would have either been 11-6 which would have been good for a Wildcard berth, or perhaps even 12-5 which would have been good for the AFC South division title.


The 2022 offensive line has had a grand total of 1 good game this year.

Out of 9 games, the offensive line has been ......

A) ) 6 games, absolutely atrocious.

B) ) 2 games, not absolutely atrocious, but below average.

C) ) 1 game, excellent (the 2nd Jaguars game.)


Again, the fact that the Colts have somehow managed to go 3-5-1 instead of 1-8 with the offensive line playing as though they were in the Pro Bowl exhibition game is a minor miracle.
