Garnder would have perfect here during Rhule... Not an ideal situation for him here now.

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.

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.

Joe Burrow (the now highest paid QB)

has less then 120 yards passing through his first game and a half

only 82 yards total passing last week, and only 35 at the half today

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.

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.

This has been the crazies thing to see play out through two games so far.

The Jets should call for him.

You obviously didn’t see the play.  

Nope, but he took a beating last week too. It’s gonna add up is what I’m saying.

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.
