Augie Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Do you think we could get him as our backup for Moss and a 5th rounder? Did I do that right? 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 6 hours ago, Big Turk said: Because Matt Ryan is doing his best Carson Wentz impersonation from last year for them. He has been really bad. Also would not be surprised if this was coming from Irsay knowing he is dumping Ballard and Reich and wanting to see if he needs to draft a new QB as well. Big Jim has feeling his oats lately. I bet he is pushing Frank. Ryan turned out to be a fairly poor choice to hold down the fort by now. But shouldn't they be tanking ? not tanking but tanking , tanking ? 48 minutes ago, Augie said: Do you think we could get him as our backup for Moss and a 5th rounder? Did I do that right?

Maybe, but your approach doesn’t get rid of Moss and a 5th rounder. That seems to be a high priority within a certain crowd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would have been zero reason to do that if they were tanking. They thought he was going to get better. They also signed Kerry Collins before the season. He got hurt and then they were down to Painter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Painter is still probably the worst starting QB I've ever seen in the NFL. Collins was ready to return after 1-2 awful Painter starts, but the Colts announced they were sticking with Painter for the rest of the year. The absolutely did that to "suck for Luck", there is no question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Ah...more info coming out. Apparently Colts decision in large part was based on being afraid a serious Ryan injury would leave them on the hook for a lot more than they are now due to injury guarantees 3 days into the new league year. He is guaranteed $12 million but has another $7.205 million guaranteed for injury and a $10 million roster bonus also guaranteed for injury. Apparently do not want to take a chance they are on the hook for an additional $17 million as they don't plan on him being their QB next year. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/10/25/matt-ryans-contract-is-the-main-reason-he-wont-play-for-the-colts-again-this-year/ 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way you believe that. He had input , oh sure. Do you think Frank would not have preferred to draft and develop a QB over time ? You know Irsay has his hands all over this. he's a a touchy feely guy.
