@PaulFiore Just wait till the Jets have their full compliment of playmakers. They gave me the vibe the entire summer that they really feel like they have something. Personally, I think Cooper unlocks it all. We saw it for only one drive so far but this unit, when intact, is LOADED.
@Jakob33@penguin74us I understand why you say that, but there is no chance the Colts get a one for him. Less desirable position, he needs a new deal and he is not a kid.
@deiontrae__ I've said since summer, by seasons end...the Jets offensive talent including the line NOT including QB will be considered top ten and trending for top five. Imagine if they get Nelson too....Holy hell.
@NYJAfterburners A 2027 2nd and a 2028 third. Give him the bag and the line is done. Plus it helps the colts pick become better, you can't help but love it.
@UnbiasedColtFan Imo, if I'm the Jets, I offer a 2027 2nd and a 2028 4th for Nelson. He needs a new deal, so value is slightly lower. The Jets have the money and it helps the Colts number 1 pick this year become a possible top 5 pick.
The Colts are objectively in an awful spot
Firing Chris Ballard is a huge step in the right direction but he pushed all the chips in prior to leaving
- Jets own Indianapolis’ 2027 1st
- Daniel Jones was extended this offseason
- Alec Pierce (hurt) is wildly overpaid ($114M)
- Won't get the return they paid for Sauce
- Quenton Nelson’s contract expires in 2026
Teams should be blowing up Indianapolis’ phones as early as today and inquiring for Jonathan Taylor, Quenton Nelson, Josh Downs, Laiatu Latu, Grover Stewart, DeForest Buckner, and Charvarius Ward
Notable Information:
- Colts have a potential OUT from Daniel Jones contract after this season (2 Years, $88M)
- Translation: Daniel Jones will be cut this offseason
My final thoughts:
Chris Ballard is firmly in the conversation for the worst GM in NFL history.
He is the only GM over the last 45 seasons to keep his job for over a decade with less than 3 playoff appearances and less than 2 playoff wins.
Shane Steichen has been dreadful to be blunt.
He’s in his 4th season and is 7-24 against teams with a record of .500 or better.. with 0 playoff appearances as well, we’ve seen more than enough.
Start Anthony Richardson for the rest of the season, I know he’s not the answer but immediate changes need to be implemented.
The most realistic way to turn this franchise around (in my opinion that no one asked for) would be to:
- Offer Peyton Manning a deal he can’t resist for the GM role (landing him is a pipe dream)
- No I don’t expect Peyton to takeover as their new GM but you need to prioritize him during this search
- Other potential GM’s I’d like to see interviewed include: Alec Halaby (with full confidence), John McKay, or Mike Bradway (in that order)
- Draft a legitimate starting QB in the 1st round of 2028, hopefully Indianapolis is selecting in the top 10
- Hire Brian Flores (Minnesota’s Defensive Coordinator) as Head Coach
Colts fans, the rebuild is just beginning
Have tried telling people for a year that Omar Cooper Jr is capable of being a downfield threat in addition to playing the slot.
An eventual passing game featuring Cooper, Garrett Wilson, AD Mitchell, & Kenyon Sadiq all healthy at the same time could be a lot of fun.
@Allentown1711 We have no real allies in government. It's the common sense folk who decide on their own to read and research against those who control literally everyone and every narrative.
It fucking sucks.
I want the @nyjets coach Aaron Glenn and DM to succeed even more to shut the fucking idiots up that refuse to acknowledge the development of the young players, the never quit mentality and clear vision for a sustainable winning program with additions like Sweat, Belton, Parham, ect. Those of us on the island know @beanthejetsfan. Losers will be trying to flood the shores of greenbean island after the Jets win in Foxboro! Close the gates!!
