FilthyBeast Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 AFC is going to be loaded from top to bottom, and in the AFCS you get the sense that there very well only be one team that gets to the playoffs from that division this year given the strength of the other 3 divisions in terms of WC's. With that said, this is a move that could pay big dividends for the Colts especially if the change of scenery angle revitalizes Ryan's career. He really only needs to be a pseudo game manager type of QB in Indy behind their physical running game and defense for this to work. 1 1 Quote

Although he is at the last of his career, he may do much better with Colts than ATL. Colts have best the #1 or #2 RB (depending who you ask) in the league along with better weapons at WR/ TE. Also still will be in a dome. Agree definite upgrade from Wentz, Quote
Roundybout Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 Rivers to Ryan is a lateral move at this point. Quote
17islongenough Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 How many games do the Bucs win the division by? Quote

You upgrade Wentz for less money and it costs a 7th. Yes I agree i was thinking top picks when I read it, definitely later rounds make sense 1 Quote

Even if that's the case the Colts were a playoff team under those circumstances a few years ago, one that outplayed the Bills for the most part and could have easily won that game in Buffalo too. With that said the conference might be too loaded for the Colts to make noise this year unless Ryan has an MVP type of season there. 2 Quote
Doc Brown Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 Ryan is basically Phillip Rivers which is pry better than Carson Wentz. 1 Quote

If Ryan has any gas in the tank, there probably isn't a better situation in the league for him to show it. 1 Quote

Mango Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 Just now, Virgil said: Where does Baker go now? If I am Seattle I would have to think about it. Obviously a hole in Atlanta now. Maybe the Saints? Hell, if I am TB I might actually consider it, just to have him behind Brady for a year and try to plan for the future. But I probably immediately restructure to drive the dollar amount down. Quote
