Missing piece of jigsaw at a position of weakness by bringing in quality experience or a disruption that goes against the culture team are building? ...He hasn't signed just is still available and Colts could afford him on a one year easy. $14m for year with Rams, maybe with the market he could get signed for $10m without causing disruption

I feel really sorry for Luck who I loved as a player and person. He was completely left down under the Grigson/Pagano regime. Listening to the presser was difficult. Actually one of the first things Ballard said when he walked in the Build two years ago when Luck was going through the torn labrum injury was that it is never about one guy. But jeez that statement was fully tested last night. If I were to be totally honest, I thought Frank Reich looked in complete shock, he was just staring down at the table all press conference. Its a turning point in our franchise. I thought we were building a team capable of challenging for a SB in the next season, possibly in even this season if we got hot at the right time. Doesnt feel that way now. I like Jacoby, but we have a tough schedule and he is only a good backup. His contract is up next year, I would be surprised if the Colts keep him as the franchise QB.

Irsay appointed Grigson who literally broke the best QB prospect since Manning. I guess the fans have felt lied and cheated to for a while now. I think timing on Lucks part was poor. If this was in his thinking for some time, then he should have gave us every chance to replace him.

It feels like the last few years have been a waste. Luck comes in, has no luck and Manning goes on to win another Ring. The front office have a lot of questions to answer, do they have ambition or do they just after an easy paycheck.

But I think every Colts fan felt a huge level of sadness, confusion and frustration at the time, 2 weeks before the regular season, when we were told be everyone, including Luck, that he will play. I was hit hard by the news, I was up until 4.30am listening to the press conference and the news. But the boos were of emotional anguish than malice. The reality is that this whole saga was handled wrong by the Colts, just like it was in 2017 and unfortunately the fans as a result, handled it badly too. Moving forward, its a clear turning point in the franchise. Brissett will be given the opportunity of a lifetime, to stake a claim for a QB1 job with a NFL team that has good talent and coaching around him. Imo Ballard needs to make a clear cut decision next offseason whether he wants to keep going with Brissett as QB1 or we look at the draft. He will have 16 games of VT to make that call, which is plenty. I don't want to be in a QB limbo where we have the talent, but the QB is holding us back. I still think, if Brissett plays decent, we can challenge for the division. We are not a contender anymore which hurts. But its important that the winning culture we developed from last year keeps growing.

He wandered into somewhere and sat on a couch probably thinking he was still at the Halloween party. Needs to stay off the booze for sure but it's crazy to think he's suspended for that and Tyreek Hill broke a child's arm and he is playing.

Therefore not in a good position to get a top QB in the 2020 draft. Going after Teddy Bridgewater or Ryan Fitzpatrick might be their best option at the moment.
