He was a great player, but not the brightest guy. I agree totally. He jerked the Packers around and they finally got rid of him. I was hoping the same thing would happen to Rodgers but they didn't have a quality replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoB2011 Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 Favre is a massive piece of hot Mississippi garbage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billingsley99 Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 I need someone smarter than me to figure out this year's payroll for the Colts WR group. The Bucs pay 53M for their group which is highest and the Packers are at 17M which is 28th. I would like to compare salary of Colts O line vs the Bills, Bucs, Rams, Chiefs just for fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATX_sig Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 So what is the trigger point for Sam to get a shot at starting at QB if Colts don't get on track. Fortunately, their division looks bad. Titans look quite stale themselves. Jags are certainly trending up but don't see them separating. So colts can probably stay in striking range for some time. Sam is special and he clearly put in a lot of work in the off season to improve his game. He is like Jalen Brunson in NBA. People gravitate and rally around leaders such as him. I'd be tempted to activate him for the KC game in case it gets out of hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be honest and say that, as a Bengals fan with Sunday Ticket, I have not watched the Colts play yet this year. That said, I think the season needs to be at least 6-7 games in doesnt it? At that point if the Colts are 2-5 or worse, at least two games behind in the standings, and not showing improvement, then maybe. Anything else is premature in my opinion. Fact is, without Pittman, the expectations of the passing game should be kept in check, regardless of the QB.

Joe Burrow is head and shoulders better than Sam and look how bad his O line has made him look. Sam cannot read it quick enough to survive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATX_sig Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 I think they remain in the division hunt for quite some time even they are mediocre. We'll see. Everytime I think the titans are done they get really good. This time it looks different. So with a week 14 bye and if it looks hopeless then he gets 4 games at the end of the season. I'd still activate him for the chiefs game and maybe some others. Sam is mobile and athletic so he brings something to the table there.

D-BONE Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 I'm giving it a month. If the offense is still totally sucking, give Sam a shot. You can always bring the vet statues back after a week or two of Sam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Sam but he is nothing more than a backup in this league. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bama is looking like the answer to that might be 3 right now.... nearly 10% of the leagues starters and all of them being on playoff caliber teams isn't bad. Let's be real, there is a lot that goes into being a good NFL quarterback and I think very little of that has to do with where you went to college. Bama has 3 (I'm included Hurts for Bama and OU) and OU has 3, no one else has more than 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically that is probably correct, but he started for multiple years, won titles, and graduated from Bama. He played 42 games there and 14 at OU. I personally don't have a problem with both schools claiming him. If Rob Phinisee was good enough to make the NBA after this season, would you consider him a Cincinnati guy or an IU guy?

I don't think there is like an official ruling on this. Guys can be a former player of more than one school, it happens literally every single year. An alumni is just someone who attended a school; they don't even have to have graduated. Now I don't think that in every situation there are warm feelings between multiple schools, but in a situation like Hurts I think that's a great example of a guy that would be welcomed back and cheered for by both schools. Didn't the Manning Cast have Saban on during an Eagles - Pats game last year to talk about Jones and Hurts? Didn't Joe Burrow go back to an OSU game recently? Hell, IU and ND probably have more reversible jacket fans than any other fanbases. We are the last people that should say you can only have allegiance to one school.
