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.

      Bryce might be the most frustrating player we've ever had.

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's mostly me. I came into the season basically believing he was not ever going to be the guy but with a little bit of wait and see. It didn't take long of me seeing before I saw he was the same guy he has largely always been. Maybe in some future scenario 3-5 years from now he is confident enough to be a decent NFL QB. I don't really want to be the team waiting for that to happen. Let his 3rd, 4th, 5th or whatever team be the ones that figure it out.

      Naw let him get to Tampa and crack his old fragile body with Radsom or Trey M I’d love to see him get rocked by this raw defense. He’s a fool thinking he would leave us for greener pastures I’m glad it played out this way should’ve stayed loyal to the ones who really wanted you.

      And a legitimate question to ask is what does this offense look like once Bryce is off his rookie contract? How is that offensive line going to look? We have a ton of money invested up front and that is 100% unsustainable with Bryce making starting QB money. Icky and Moton are going to be 50m per season plus the guards at 32 and possibly Mays at 6-8 if we're lucky. Add in Bryce and that's 125m just on those 6 players if we tried to keep them all. It's just not doable.  So then the real question IMO becomes, if we spent the money on our OL, and less on a QB, would the outcome be that much different? I haven't seen Bryce elevate the offense enough by himself on a consistent basis to warrant the contract we would have to give him, not to mention the players we would have to give up, based on the accelerations of the bonuses as I understand them, would likely include Icky.
