Colts face quarterback uncertainty as Daniel Jones recovers from Achilles injury
When a franchise goes from Peyton Manning to Andrew Luck as its quarterbacks, it is very hard to feel sorry for them when they have years without a true answer at quarterback.
However, the Indianapolis Colts drafted Anthony Richardson years ago, thinking he would be the answer.
There have been more questions and problems with him than solutions.
Now they have Shane Steichen entering his fourth season as the coach, and Daniel Jones as their quarterback for the second year – only he is coming off an Achilles tear.
What is the hope for the Colts this season? ANTHONY RICHARDSON'S TURNOVERS IN PRESEASON OPENER RAISE MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT HIS COLTS FUTURE The Colts started last year looking great, running off an 8-2 record before the bye week.
Even their losses were relatively acceptable ones – they dropped one game to the Los Angeles Rams and the other to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Both were on the road, and both were 27-20 losses.
Sure, they had some moments where they were more lucky than good, but great teams position themselves to take advantage of luck.
After the bye, it was a complete disaster.
They lost in overtime to the Kansas City Chiefs by three.
Then they lost at home to the Houston Texans , and Jones didn’t play again after the Jacksonville Jaguars game.
A promising start saw Jones’s injury eliminate any possibility of the postseason and an 8-9 finish, losing 8 of their final nine games.
ZERO BS.
JUST DAKICH.
