Colt Brennan goes on IR

I think Mason's ribs are really starting to hurt also!!



(j/k :))

This is the best worst news a Colt fan can hear. We know he won't be cut now, and we can keep another young flashy rookie in chase. Maybe next year we can keep both Colt and Chase, probably campbell (assuming he does good enough to earn a contract extension) and we can say good bye to collins. At least Colt didn't get cut, and picked up by another team, and somehow become that teams QB by default sometime during the season, play us and beat us, believe me I could see one happening, just like how I could see St. Louis and Cincinnati beating us last year. Just thank god colts with US!

lol I still don't see how colt played well this preseason. Terrible mechanics, terrible decisions, cockiness, etc. I can't believe Colt will ever threaten anyone for a starting job. ever.

He is so very lucky to even be on this team.

Well, San Francisco, Detroit, Carolina, Cleveland, Kansas City, Oakland, Denver, and St. Louis are just a few teams I could see him starting either by injury or by him just being better than most of those QB's. Matt Hasselbeck was picked in the draft in the 6th round like Brennan, was fairly average in the preseason, got to a team he had a better chance of starting with a familiar offense, then boom! he became a pro bowler. Now of course I'm not saying Brennan will be the next Matt Hasselbeck, but I am saying that if you give Brennan time to develope, and first stringers around him, he's got a shot to be a pretty damn good 6th round QB.

Perhaps in a couple of years, but he's definitely not ready now to even be a #2 let alone a starter coming back to beat us. That's pretty comical.

He wasn't great but he wasn't bad either. If you think about it JC played horribly in the first two games. JC only started looking good in the two last games. A whole 25 games it took him if you think about it. 5 preseason games last yr, 16 regular games, and 4 preseason games this yr. Colt has had like 8-10 preseason games. Limited time.

In regards to his mechanics; I think his foot work is ok, but apparently you are wanting to change his throwing motion he's probably been using since little league and got him to where he is now. That's not gunna happen. Look at Favre. Atlanta got rid of him cause they couldn't change his mechanics and GB capitalized on it.

As far as his terrible decision making; He's only had like 8-10 games. All using second string O-lineman. I know it was against second stringers but if your O-lineman aren't blocking and your running for your life as in the play he got injured he's not gunna learn much cause at that point your just trying to not do something stupid with the ball.

I'm happy they did not cut him. He is my favorite qb on this team. He wll eventually become a starter for this team. I guess we can have Chase as the number 3 this year. We can now move onto another topic than Colt vs Chase. I would have love to ee Colt in mop up duty this year at least.

I know our Oline isn't too hot, but I guess it is hard for me to change my opinion about colt dating back to the Sugar Bowl. He saw a real defense and looked horrid. I know people have said this a million times, but Timmy Chang. Timmy Chang. I have felt this way about Colt from day one.

As for JC looking bad, I always felt he had the arm, but he was just a bit slow on his decision making. Obviously that was because he wasn't comfortable with the playbook. I didn't see the raging arrogance which lead to a ton of turnovers.


To me, I am the kinda guy who wants steady and consistent improvement. That is what I saw from JC, along with better skill(from draft day).

Your living in a dream world, Colt Brennan has a LONG way to go in being a starting quarterback in this league. And this does nothing but set him back(no practice), Daniel will now have the "inside track" come next year.
