Colts probably should start AR for experience purposes.... but Gardner really deserves a shot to lead the colts this year. 

If they want to win more this year, start Minshew.

He is better in the "now" term, he just keeps ending up in situations where the QB of the future lands on the teams he is on.

Again, way too early to make that kind of judgment.

To be fair many were saying that well before this season started, I don't view that as a reactionary opinion. I'm hopeful with Reich but had plenty of concerns about him even before we hired him.

If Gardner plays well then he is a trade chip before the deadline. And they got him for basically no money.

What couldn't he do here? Unless you just mean because we drafted a dude first overall. He still would have been an upgrade over Dalton. 

why would he want to come to a team where he 100% wouldnt start? We annouced Bryce was our starter week 1. Colts didnt announce it until week3 of the preseason.

Maybe that is because Dalton isn't a threat to take Young's job? Maybe Minshew could have pushed for it. I was just commenting on the part about him being a fit here during Rhule's time but not now. I didn't think he would be better under Rhule than with our current crop of coaches. 

Lets be honest, if teams were just starting who is better right now, Minshew would have been starting for the Colts or he would be starting for us. The only reason he doesn't start is because theres some guy with a higher draft number next to their name on the roster.

nah i dont agree here. Bryce starts here no matter who is on the bench. 

Minshew had zero incentive to come play for us. Colts paid him good money, he was with his old coach, and he had a potential opportunity to start there. Him going to the Colts was most likely his preference as well.

Richardson got knocked out late in the first game and didn't even finish the first half in his second.

That's not a situation that lends to trading your backup.

      I can't tell you what other's expect from him before they will start believing in him. I think for some, they will never be able to overcome his size. I think that is the fundemental problem for them which means they will never be happy with him behind center. For others, it seems he will have to be in the top 10% in pretty much every catagory and do that all seaon for them to start believing in him. Not everyone of course. There are people on this board that, while have doubts, can still acknowledge his good plays and are willing to give him another season. Those folks I would assume just want consistency - and wins. I could be off on all the above but that's kind of how I see it. And while you didn't ask, I will say I'm glad they picked up his 5th year option. He earned it. I do not think he should be signed to a long term contract yet. I do think he will develope in a franchise QB and will get the Panthers back into the playoffs and win them but I know I could be wrong. Next year will be the big test. If the offense continues to improve and they get back to the playoffs because of the offense, it will be time to sign him long term. If it's a repeat of this year, then it's time to look elsewhere for a QB. Like I said though, I believe he can be the guy so would be surprised if he doesn't make it.

      Well since I am so biased, why don’t you tell us what he has to do to earn the trust of everyone that doubts him? If you say he has already done it, we really will never agree.
