Colts 2023 A Time To Change

[ChristianPatriot]

Okay. Jawing about who the better choice for the Colts QB aside, everyone thought Brice Young was the right guy. Except I thought he's too small to be successful in the NFL. 29th.

If Young would have been on the table would the Colts have picked him? I don't think so.

I was also a Stroud guy in the draft. Elite accuracy with adequate athleticism.

Once I knew he wasn’t an option for the Colts, then I was all-in on Richardson.

And temporary. Will Levis's ranking be permanently in the basement? That is less certain.

After last night's second half I think he'll be ok. He's on the field learning the position. He like AR has got to learn to slide to prevent injury. Hero ball doesn't cut it for long in the NFL.

The Colts picked AR because he was the Combine Queen. Hell they even said so.

Our rookie QB has played 1 complete game without injury. He has a history of injuries. So what's your point?

He puts himself out there. That's the issue with athletic QB's. They take chances. When AR is a runner, he's subject to as violent tackles as any runner.

The Colts knew about AR's medical history. They're taking a chance on him. Titans took a chance on Levis. Not on injuries as much as just improving his talent. So the question I asked before is essentially what is the biggest risk? That AR will be injured early and sit out the whole season again? Will Levis be never be better than bottom tier? What's the bigger risk?

Menshew is ranked 12 in adjusted QBR. This season, the Colts are better off with AR sitting out the season and Minshew behind center than they would have been with Levis.

How much better will Levis be?

How many games will AR miss?

Both are risks. I think there's not a lot of upside left for Levis. Maybe AR will wash up with injuries like RG3. But at least the Colts will be free to chase a top QB. If they picked Levis and he never got much better, how many seasons would the Colts be stuck with him?

Just pure, unadulterated ignorance.

“the one thing I kept going back and watching…his poise…”

Levis shows moments of goodness (not greatness). So did Trubisky. But yeah, both have some things to learn. AR, because of his athleticism, puts himself out there too much. Drop back passers are less exciting to watch. But they last a lot longer. And the great ones win superbowls.

I believe this is what they call a “must win”

Good signs for Brents and Speed

Colts rule out Jonathan Taylor for Saturday vs. Steelers

Jonathan Taylor's return from a thumb injury will have to wait at least another week.

Michael Pittman: Playing this season without an extension has worked out in my favor

Colts receiver Michael Pittman did not agree to a contract extension before his fourth season.

They need to keep him. Only consistent receiver they have

It's also, and still, irrelevant.

 

[chipbennett]

Yep. Quarterbacks do get injured sometimes……that’s some big brain analysis right there.

Aaron Rodgers
Deshaun Watson
Kirk Cousins
Joe Burrow
Daniel Jones
Justin Herbert

Dude. Just give it up. It's obvious that Will Levis is better than all of these, by virtue of JCSR logic.

I love when the butthurt flows in this thread. I think there are at least two here that need grief counseling.

So this game today is only available on nfl network?

CBS I believe also has it

It's obvious that Will Levis is better

He may have a better sister…
