Colts are a joke. Brissett overrated. Wideouts are awful. About 10 guys I’d keep on this team.

I really wanted to be a Jacoby fan.  When Luck quit on his team, Jacoby stepped up.  He has a better football iq and doesn't turn the ball over like Luck.  But he just doesn't have the accuracy needed to compete in the league.

he doesn't have a better football IQ than Luck. Yes Luck threw some bad bad bad picks but he made 10x the plays Brissett makes. Brissett can't read the field and consistently struggles even getting the team to the line before the play clock runs out.

Yes, he has struggles.  I feel like he sees the field well, he just can't make the passes.  Luck could make them, but he had the most boneheaded mistakes game after game.  Brissett doesn't make those low iq mistakes that Luck constantly did.  He's just much more limited.

I still have hopes for JB but he struggles when teams blitz. Early on I noticed this and wondered why teams did not blitz more. Last night at one point NO had blitzed on 7 of 10 passing plays which included the overthrows for wide open receivers.

I think as more tape got out on JB this became more obvious. He can escape the rush when healthy but it seems with his knee he is more limited.

He is still really almost a rookie as far as games played so there is some hope that he is far from a finished product.

It will be curious to see how the colts proceed from here. They have too much open cap space to just go the build from within route.

Ignore the Colts since their game is meaningless and on road. I am going to IU game and don't care at all I am missing Colts game and I am someone who rarely misses either.

For the first time in 10 years, the Patriots will not have a first round bye. 

 

Brady 15/28 today with a pick-six. Curious to see how much longer the narrative of the Pats' o-line and receivers mysteriously forgetting how to play football can go on.

So for Colts fans, would you guys trade up for Jerry Jeudy? I would, that dude is a stud. This wide out class is great, but we haven't invested in high end skill position talent in a while and we need to

I think we could get a friendly swap with Miami at 5, and I’d be all for it. Jeudy is a stud.

Yah my thing is we have the assets so go get the guy. He is the best skill position guy in the draft

[Alford Bailey 12,246]

Lincoln Riley's name being tossed around for the Cowboys job.

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

But anyone taking that job must keep Jerry happy.

In case people missed it, Colts said they were unsure about Brisset going forward...... thats why they did a short term deal

 

Not eve reading between the lines. Brisset isn't the future, he is a stop gap 

[KingPG21 6,512]

In rare good news for the Colts over the last two months, Nelson named first team all pro again, Leonard named to the second team.
