I've been talking to a few of my buddies all day about the Colts game, arguing over whether or not winning games is good because we want to get as high a pick as possible. That is absolute bullshit.
I'm a firm believer that you should always try to compete. Sure, some teams are just way better than others, but you always want players to have that mentality that winning is always priority number one. I also pointed out that these late game situations are invaluable for Jacoby Brissett. Because IF (and it's still a huge if) Andrew Luck takes longer than expected, we don't want the team at a stand still while we wait. Jacoby Brissett is the quarterback of the Indianapolis Colts for the foreseeable future, and he's been doing a damn good job so far given the circumstances.
And if Luck is ready to go at the start of next season, the we'll have a legit backup QB for the first time this century. All I'm saying is giving up a receiver isn't really a terrible loss considering these three things:
- We don't have our franchise signal caller to throw the ball. Obviously Brissett has done well, but who would have expected him to have come in and shown this kind of competency right off the bat as a second year, third string guy? Not me that's for sure.
- We have plenty of receivers. Kamar Aiken, TY Hilton, and Donte Moncrief are all better options. And with Jack Doyle also getting grabs there really wasn't ever a ton of balls for Dorsett, especially when he's basically a worse version of TY. Maybe we lost a little something in the return game but that's about it.
- Dorsett was drafted by Ryan Grigson, noted cunt. His
complete and utter lack ofsuccess rate speaks for itself. Pretty fucking terrible. Dorsett never had a chance.
