Colts are benching Ryan. Foles to start the rest of the year.

That and having the biggest blown Super Bowl lead and now biggest blown regular season lead, probably doesn't have to worry about getting the trifecta with the Playoffs one.

I just can't get over the connections on this one. The guy who led the biggest comeback in college and pro football history is let go, only for his team to relinquish the greatest comeback in NFL history with a QB who had previously lost the greatest lead in Super Bowl history.

The Colts were just unsure how to announce he was done for the season due to a torn taint.

Hopefully this bad end to his career will keep him out of HOF. He has put up a ton of yards but came up small in the biggest moments. 

Matty "ice" was supposed to be his nickname. Lol

Man, the Colts are having one of the weirdest saddest seasons ever.

It will all get better when they name Saturday the full time HC

Still surprises me how Chiefs lost to the Colts earlier in the year. Guess was a bad game for them like lots of teams have. Comparable to our Bills and Jags game last year.

A-Rod is going to the absolute best team that needs a QB

 I don't think it was simply a bad game, the Chiefs have had some problems against bad teams this year. Lost to the Colts and now in back to back weeks almost lost to 2 more bad teams. Nearly blew a 27-0 against Denver, who fought back to make it 34-28 and had the ball 2 times after that with a chance to take the lead. And this week got taken to OT against the 1 win Texans team.

Might have been his “date” with Horrible Harry that made him decide it’s just not worth it? 

 

Could be true, but I hear the exam came back negative!

Colts are such a sh*tshow. I’ve always detested their fan base since they booed Luck when he retired. And Irsay is a terrible owner, so I love what’s happened to them. Saturday’s hiring was a joke and the final nail in the coffin for that franchise. They are destined to be very bad for years to come. Love it.

So the Colts traded a 3rd round pick for Ryan and took on his full salary.  Now he'll count for 18 million in dead cap next year.  Such a strange franchise.

At least Phillip Rivers resulted in a playoff birth. Every other QB acquisition has been puzzling. All they did was set themselves back instead of drafting & developing a guy. Could’ve bought Reich a couple more seasons.

Has to suck to get benched for the season twice in one season 😬

 

Time for Matt Ryan to hang em up. I coulda swore I heard reports like two years ago he was retiring then next thing I knew he was back. Maybe I’m trippin 🤔

I think the incredible amount of money QBs like Ryan make are keeping some around longer than they’d otherwise want to play. That sure looks to be the case here. (I’m sure other will walk early after making enough to set themselves up for life.)

 

The Colts have made obvious mistake after obvious mistake at QB since Luck. Ryan, Wentz, Rivers and even Brissett. What they paid and traded for that lot is ridiculous. Still, screw them for tanking for Peyton and Luck. They deserve this.

Why trade when they can sign Tom Brady?

Next thing you know, Ryan's 350 lbs. and the 2023 version of Brendan Fraser.

Could Indy just cancel the rest of their season?  My God what a dumpster fire.

Touche’ - “borderline elite” defenses do not blow a monster lead like that.

Indy sure got made to look like suckers in that deal, but I guess they just can't resist signing QBs in the twilight of their careers.

[peterpan]

Maybe we can trade for that guard of theirs? 32nd pick straight up
