Logic Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Woof. Just as Alec Pierce and Parris Campbell were starting to make noise on my dynasty team bench 😝 Who woulda thunk that the Philip Rivers 7-seed team would be the peak of the Reich/Ballard regime, and it would be all downhill from there? Imagine being a Colts fan? Just a few short years ago they had an ascending defense and a generational type QB in Andrew Luck. Then, out of the blue, the QB retired at age 29, they began a never-ending parade of mediocre and aging veterans, and now appear poised to potentially fire their coach and GM. Sheesh.

gonzo1105 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Ehlinger hasn't looked bad in the preseason and limited regular season exposure. I think Reich knows he is going to get canned unless a young guy can get it going. I like the kid, whether he's a starter in the NFL it TBD. Ryan wasn't taking this team anywhere, he was shot.

Who would’ve seen that coming? Another year or two and they'll be ready to trade for Russell Wilson! 5 minutes ago, Bangarang said: Any chance Reich comes here when he’s fired and Dorsey becomes a HC? I thought of that briefly as well. But I think Reich is best off going to Jacksonvile and being OC under Pederson again. Coach up Trevor Lawrence. I think I'd rather simply promote Joe Brady for OC at this point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 This is some good old fashioned karma coming back to bite the Colts. The way Irsay handled the Peyton Manning/Tank for Luck situation...then Luck being so broken he gave up football...and now the Colts being unable to find competent QB play...

wjag Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I can't see how Frank Reich survives this. Colts are giving Cleveland a run for their 'revolving door QB' approach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a decent QB that team would be making some noise. There are windows of opportunity for teams when they can peak or just do their best while retooling. Feels like the Colts window is closing this season. Edited October 24, 2022 by WideNine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was interested in the idea of Frank coming back home here but his offenses are terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awwufelloff Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 It's a QB wasteland this year in NFL. Mahomes and Allen are so far ahead of everyone else its not close. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big difference He’s hurt and benched…it’s ehlingers job to lose going forward even if Matt is healthy.

Albany,n.y. Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 The Colts have had 5 different starting QBs in 5 straight seasons if you only can give them a credit for 1 each year. Assuming Ehlinger doesn't start next year, 6 starting QBs in 6 straight seasons with a different guy each year could end up being a record that will never be broken.
