We're basically the 2024 Colts... a "serviceable QB" away from being a legitimate team

Defense is legitimate

O-line is legitimate

We have a great WR, they have a great WR

We have a young and ceiling is high TE

They had Anthony Richardson, we have Bryce Young

 

We need Canales to have the gall like Steichen and let leadership know that Bryce ain't that guy and work his talents with a mid tier QB like Daniel Jones to get game manager level production

Canales is a wet noodle. If he had the backbone to demand a legitimate #2 we would already have a 'serviceable QB' on the team. He was more than happy to come into the year with Dalton and Plumber? this year. Either he thought any of that was serviceable or he didn't care.

Dude is friends with his GM and still couldn't get 1 playable backup at QB. There are reasons why one of those coaches is trending in the right direction and the other is going from .500 to talking about if there should be a year 3 soon.

The defense is NOT legitimate. I think we have schemed well against some teams, but this team has real problems on defense. We are further behind on defense than offense in terms of competing, which sounds insane given our lack of offensive production, but its true. Get a QB that can complete intermediate and long passes routinely and the offense opens up, but it forces other teams to throw deep too, and we can't stop that poo. No pass rush, no backers that can cover tight ends, and only 1 corner (who got roasted yesterday).

The D is still rebuilding - it was bereft of talent last year.

And before anybody suggests it, no we aren't trading for Anthony Richardson either...

(hell, no!) 😖

I'd be happy to buy very low on Richardson, like a 5th round pick, but I'd absolutely sit him next year and work on his footwork. 

Lord knows what the Colts are going to do with him - they've already ruined him.

We have a Tyler Warren comp?

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
