2021 Indianapolis Colts...Wentz it gonna end?

[Kingspoint]

From NBC Sports w/ NBC Sports' comments:

NBC Sports' Peter King reports many in the Eagles organization believed Carson Wentz "couldn't handle hard coaching" and was coddled in his final years in Philadelphia. King said Wentz's persistent clashing with former offensive coordinator Mike Groh, followed by the team firing Groh, created widespread perception that the quarterback was unable to take constructive criticism. Wentz's relationship with Philadelphia coaches -- including former head coach Doug Pederson -- steadily eroded after Frank Reich left for Indianapolis and ex-QBs coach John DeFilippo parted ways with the Eagles, according to King. Wentz reportedly didn't connect with many teammates in Philadelphia and could be "stubborn" with offensive coaches devising game plans. The team drafting Jalen Hurts in the 2020 NFL Draft "completely blindsided" Wentz, per King, further damaging his relationship with coaches team officials. It would seem Reich, Wentz's new head coach in Indianapolis, has more to handle than just improving Wentz's mechanics and decision making.

Wentz isn't going to be wearing #11 for Indy....Pittman, Jr. won't give it up.

And, rightfully, so. Pittman has already proved himself as a Colt who's going to be here for a while. The pecking order in that locker room has Pittman far ahead of Wentz at this point. Hope Carson understands that he'll have to earn anyone's respect around there.

I hope Carson understands what is expected of him.

A lot of Horseshoe fans are clamoring for JJ Watt...

Apparently Irsay stepped in and got the TY deal done, wonder how Ballard feels about that?

I could see Wentz having a good year. He just needed to GTFO of Philly

I think the Colts will be fine until Wentz is ready.

Well evidently he is ready to practice?

IMO, there are some teams, as far as the QB position goes, who are in worse, or more questionable shape, then Indy. ;)

Their running game is second only to Cleveland's, while their Defense, like the Browns, is Top-6.

Some bad teams will make the playoffs in the NFC, maybe four teams that couldn't beat any of the top-6 from the AFC. BUF, KCC are the powerhouses. CLE and BAL follow. IND and NEP (they'll have a Top-3 Defense) and TEN are all better than any team in the NFC West, East or Central.

What happened to the D?

What happened to the D?

They believed the hype. I’m probably in the minority but I think this team finishes below .500, they are built to win in 1986 not 2021. I have serious questions about Frank as a coach, just not impressed with him and I personally feel he follows analytics too closely.

Good ole Frank.

Playoffs? Hell, I just hope we can win a game.

Colts probably wish they went a little more all-in on the Stafford Sweepstakes.

Yes, or Sam Darnold.

Time to get on a roll...

[DocRed]

Wentz definitely needed out of that cesspool that is Philly.

[oregonred]

It's almost like the Colts planted Jacoby Brissett in Miami for last weekend's game. Some late game stat padding, but he was awful. Along with the Dolphins O-Line.

Not much to learn from that other than the Dolphins are a complete mess right now and one of the biggest disappointments in the NFL through the first month.

Mahomes, Herbert, Lamar, Allen, Burrow, Lawrence, Mayfield, Dak, Kyler, Rodgers, etc. Should be easy.

Gotta love the confidence...

1st Q was great...then I thought they were gonna piss it away. I'll take it and back to .500.

[Assembly Hall]

I didn't see that coming. Taylor over the Bills.
