Wilson: Painter may start

Found November 21, 2011 on The Colts Authority: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Curtis Painter,  Bill Polian
TEAMS: Indianapolis Colts
Colts_painter_scrambles_761e
In a slow news week, Philip B. Wilson believes thanks to Polian's support Curtis Painter may get the start: It sounds like Caldwell will make that determination Wednesday. I expect Painter to stick as the starter, if for no other reason than vice chairman Bill Polian’s continual support of the QB. Polian has doggedly maintained Painter hasn’t played as badly as some of us think. But the offensive numbers don’t lie. The Colts have scored 27 points combined in four games.

Jacksonville writer: Colts a debacle

Via The Colts Authority  |  November 22, 2011
Jacksonville has mired in medicrity (at best) since 1999 with few glimpses of "above average."  That doesn't stop Tania Ganguli of the Jacksonville Times-Union from accurately declaring the Colts' season a "debacle."  I guess it's better than reading about the Jaguars... Maybe they were too good, had too much success, won far too often. Maybe fate...

Chappell: Colts QBs failing

Via The Colts Authority  |  November 22, 2011
Mike Chappell tells us the Colts QBs have the turnover-to-TD ratio flipped upside down: The offense has failed to generate a touchdown in the past two games and has four TDs and 13 turnovers in the past 22 quarters. The Colts have managed only 27 points in the past four games and have failed to score more than 24 in a game all season. It's just the fourth time in club history...

Colts Coach Jim Caldwell Noncommittal About Starting QB Curtis Painter Next Week

Via GridironFans.com  |  November 21, 2011
Colts head coach Jim Caldwell was noncommittal Monday whether he’ll stick with starter Curtis Painter or turn to backup Dan Orlovsky. A change is warranted as the offense has failed to score a touchdown in the past two games and has just four TDs and 13 interceptions in the past 22 quarters. It’s all not Painter’s fault, but he has faltered lately after several solid starts in...
