IDK what game some of the posters here and Colts fans were watching but I was rather unimpressed by everything except his athleticism. Once the halftime adjustments took away the screen pass he looked absolutely horrific throwing the ball. The more tape that comes out on him the worse it'll get, it seemed like he was only making half field reads and predetermined throws. I get that he's a strong athletic guy with a big arm but I didn't see touch, accuracy, or anything that really made me go "wow". Like I don't see the 2nd coming of Cam Newton I see at best a more athletic David Garrard.

Colts fans are being delusional, which I get. Same as some of us (me) with Minshew and even back to Blake and Gabbert.

As for us here, I don't know if any of us thought he played well, I think it's more we expected his second half struggles to show from the first snap and he didn't look AS bad as we expected early on. He still wasn't good and Colts fans shouldn't be brimming with confidence for the guy like they are.
