Colts benching Matt Ryan per Reich Benched regardless of injury

  • Big Blitz changed the title to Colts benching Matt Ryan - Injured?

Not surprised but surprised Frank isn't going to Nick Foles. It feels like a last throw of the dice. I was told before their TNF at the Broncos that if they lost that there was a chance of a houseclearing during the season and that Irsay is at the end of his patience with both Ballard and Reich. They then won 2 in a row, but they are still s tier behind the Titans. That is clear to see. Commanders, Patriots, Raiders is a run of potential "get right games" but against three teams who can punch you in various ways. If they were to lose all 3 I suspect change would happen in season.

They repeatedly lose to the Titans...every game it seems.

Ryan may have an injury but I think the Colts are using it as a way to get Ryan out of the lineup and let him save face. He has by and large been atrocious. Ehlinger flashed for them in the preseason. Looked real sharp. 

 

In any event, I believe this is the slow rattle of death on the Frank Reich era in Indy.

He took a sack vs Titans and landed on his shoulder. Came up grimacing

 

He's injured

 

But also benched...Reich confirmed it was not related to him being injured, Ehlinger was going to be the starter the rest of the year regardless...they want to see what they have I bet...

why would they have traded for Ryan if that was always going to be the plan
