My guess is that they think AR needs another year to develop, and Jones gives him the best chance at success this year. It scares me to think of Daniel Jones as our quarterback at the future.

It’s a continuation of the stupidity of the Ballard regime. It cannot be over quick enough.

Playing for mediocrity is in the blood of this organization. Don't think I can stomach watching this again. So I guess a really exceptional season is sneaking into the playoffs and one and done again. I am not sure how any of these players can possibly get pumped for this season. What a shit show. Is there a more poorly run team?

At least at this point, no male cheerleaders!

I am surprised, I thought Jones was better in preseason but not by a wide margin. I wonder if AR has any trade value?

Not enough to take the risk. I’d rather keep him into next year and let him battle it out under a new coach and GM. The cynical part of me says it’s an attempt by Ballard and Steichen to get another year. Telling ownership AR was always a long term play and he should sit and watch this year.

It’s likely just me being dumbfounded that they believe they can save their jobs with DJ. Believing AR is a known failure but DJ has some untapped potential is just ludicrous to me.

Seriously though, I went in this season with some pessimistic optimism (yeah, an oxymoron, but whatever) thinking that maybe Jones could be a good enough game manager and the Colts would win games with defense and the run game. I did not expect him to look like the second coming of Steve Young out there.

When Jonathan Taylor dropped the ball at the goal-line last year, you wanted him immediately cut from the team.

And when asked whom should replace him with, you said that it didn't matter, and that you didn't care.

Your resentment toward almost anything and everything that ever goes wrong for the Colts knows no limits, and no bounds ...... your rage is equally spewed for all of them, whether it's a current player, a former player, a head coach, an assistant coach, or the guy selling soda in the upper deck of Lucas Oil Stadium.
