    I'd sure like to see Ehlinger for the rest of the season. Ryan's arm is toast.

      The team sucks and will continue to lose no matter who the QB is. But playing Ryan is a financial risk for next season because we owe him an additional $17.205 million if he can’t pass his physical in March. So if he gets hurt, we’re paying an extra $17.205 million to a player who cannot be in our plans beyond this year. That’s just crazy.

      I’ve never seen a Week 1 game set the tone for an entire season quite like that Houston game. Just a terrible game with the tie and a sign of what was to come.

        Was planning on going to the game in Dallas but they suck. They don't deserve my money

          It would still be worth it - great stadium and DFW is a nice area to spend a weekend.

            Important game tonight... I need Elliot to push my fantasy game lead out more to maintain #1 in my FFL division.
            Other than that... I'm not sure there's any other reason to watch the game.
            Nuntius was right for a while. I was wrong for a while. But ultimately I was right and Frank Vogel has been let go.

              Where has this been all year? Piece showed promise early on then we just quit throwing it to him.

              Might have messed up not challenging the non-fumble call.

                Didn't Dallas recover it anyway?

                  Have we considered the Colts just suck? Once the Quitterback decided to retire at age 29 it thrust the team into the no-man's land of being a QB away, yet unable to fully evaluate the team, due to that QB revolving door under center.
                  And every move, sans Rivers, has been the wrong one. And heck, maybe that was the wrong one too since it led to nothing except the dream another plug and play QB be found.

                      Do you think Ryan retires after tonight’s game? Serious question.

                        To answer your question... "No".

                        Should he? Certainly. He's just part of the problem right now and doing nothing for his legacy or the Colts.

                          Forget questioning Jeff Saturday's game management for taking timeouts to the lockerroom. Question his game management for leaving Ryan in tonight's game...

                              Ryan is just awful. Fumbles, interceptions, horrible decisions. I actually thought he was going to be the answer this season. He's been the main problem.

                              I still don't think the supporting cast is that bad. The defense is decent, even with Shaq missing the entire season. Question mark coming into the season was the receivers, they're not that bad. The O-line has been mostly bad though.

                              Even with all the turnovers we've been in most of the games. I don't think we're that far off, if had just decent QB play. I don't think we need a total rebuild.

                                Normally, there's drama on 3rd down for an offense. But, unless it's 3rd and a yard and an almost obvious run, I fully expect a QB sack every 3rd down for the Colts' offense.
                                Maybe if Ryan was better on 1st and 2nd down, there wouldn't be so many obvious passing situations on 3rd down to where pass protection weaknesses are getting exploited. Plus maybe the team could call some plays that rolls out the QB and takes some pressure off the line.

                                I hate putting everything on Ryan, but he's playing so poorly that many of the other potential fixes, or stopgap fixes, cannot be tried. He's not suddenly going to be a mobile QB, nor find velocity for his passes, nor throw missiles and darts down the field. And ball protection isn't his forte either now. Sooooo???
                                We have Foles and Ehrlinger. It's time to do what was already done and bench Ryan and keep him there. It would be more fun to watch the team, even losing, if we were at least getting to see Ehrlinger getting a chance. AND if the team could at least be competitive, then put Foles in and see what happens. One or the other... or something... The one wrong move is sticking with Ryan.
                                Nuntius was right for a while. I was wrong for a while. But ultimately I was right and Frank Vogel has been let go.
