98.3% sure that is the QB squad this season, as it should be. Cam and two young guys with big up sides.

I view this the same way, Jeremy. I like #6, but Allen’s always been my guy at backup. 

The performance in New Orleans last year was no small deal for Allen. He looked the part largely against their first-team defense.

Yep, he leads receivers.  Heineke runs backwards. 

I think Allen has more upside than a Matt Moore or Colt McCoy IMHO. 

As for our new guy, Grier's ceiling is a legit starter.

I never understood why we ever had Heinicke above Allen. I think his mobility gave him the edge in the eyes of the staff, but it's not like you're going to find someone who can replicate what Cam offers with his legs. Allen always looked like clearly the better QB of the two IMO.

Heinicke was more familiar with Turner's system, having played for him in 2015 and 2016 until Turner left.  Not saying it's a great reason, but I'm pretty sure that is why Heinicke was slotted above him.  Plus Kyle Allen was an UDFA rookie, so I understand why they would be hesitant to put him in first.

Be careful with Allen guys. He has clear talent - he was the Number 1 player in the country in high school - but he’s shown to be prone to starting off hot somewhere and then falling on his face. Happened at A&M and Houston. Of course i want him to do well, i just think basing your opinions of him off one game against a team going through the motions is premature

-someone who lived in AZ and followed his career after high school

    • He's handing off play calling duties to fuging Brad Idzik as well so, either that mouth breather can run the playbook and Canales can grow as an all around head coach or it will be a horrible decision and both of them and BY can screw off. I'm fine with that as long as it isn't just another excuse for BY to get another year with another coach worthy of working around his limitations as a qb. 
    • Not only for Andersen but the whole team, having not beat the Habs this season before tonite.  Shows them that they aren't jinxed.
    • I understand why people say things like it could be worse in relation to Tepper but it just doesn't jive for me. Are the optics bad? Yes. Would I want her to be the owner of my team? No. But I mean she's only been owner for a year and the Colts overall are a better run organization. As far as I know they've also never had the distinction of having the worst win percentage in all of professional sports either. Tepper has owned this team for 8 years and about the only thing that has been consistent has been the ability to continue to find different ways to achieve new lows. Even now people are saying things are different yada yada but we said these same things at certain points under Rhule Fitterer and Reich. I'm going to wait to see how the rubber meets the road this upcoming season before I make any strong conclusions about anything in relation to the longevity under this franchise going forward.
