Is Tolzien even a starter in the CFL? Way to go for Brissett though, I'll be rooting for him.

Me too. Good for him, hope he does well! In fact well enough for a QB controversy.

I betcha Jimmy G is wondering if he shouldn't be looking for a starter's gig somewhere too...

 

[Simpelton]

If Brissett becomes a starter before Jimmy Garoppolo does, he just might.

My prediction that Jacoby starts until Luck returns and does well enough to get traded to a team thirsty for an intelligent quarterback seems to be holding. All Brissett has to do is not suck and some team anxious for a smart coachable quarterback with a big arm will try to fish him away.

If Hopefully it isn't the New York Not Yets. Brissett would look terrible in Disaster Green

Good for him....and I hope the Colts O line is a little better so the kid doesn't get too hurt. Kid has been there all of 2 weeks??? and he has moved up the position chart? Colts must be really bad, or Jacoby is really good.....probably a little of both

Brissett's skill set is limited, he never will be a long-term starter.

If he does well the Colts will need to hang on to him for his rookie contract to back up Luck. I hope he beats him out!

What part of his skillet is limited?

Remember we're not in the greatest position to judge because we've watched the greatest quarterback who ever lived ply his trade here for so long. Anyone looks limited if you're comparing them to the GOAT.

As predicted

Quality wins in the end. Jacoby is far, far better than tolzein

Predicting Brissett to be the starter by game 2 was a lay up when the alternative was Tolzien. If only the stock market was as easy.

 

[Simpelton]

And if a guy like tolzein can draw a check from an NFL team Brissett has a bright future I think.

I still believe Brissett has a fair shot to become a midtier starter at roughly the level of a Matt Schaub or an Alex Smith. A guy who can't carry the team but can hold up his own end of the deal in a good squad.

Too bad the game is at the same time as ours.. would be interesting to watch.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

They had no choice Tolzien is the worst quarterback i have ever seen in the NFL, this isn't an exaggeration, i would rather run the wildcat for the whole game than ever have Tolzien throw a pass from what i seen last week.

he threw 2 pick 6's and could of thrown another 3.

Tolzien sucks -- it's that simple...

Coaches are just trying to win the games and keep their jobs -- Tolzien is a sure way to get fired.

Brissett's skill set is limited, he never will be a long-term starter.

Every team would love to have a pure-gold starter like Brady, Rodgers and even Luck.

For the rest, there's fools gold, such as Tyrod Taylor, Gee No! Smith and Jacoby Brisette.

The tend line is favoring the latter. Amateur athletics just is not producing enough NFL ready QBs.

Next up: Watson, Kieser, etc.

accuracy...and pretty severely too. he projects to be another Tyrod Taylor. Athlete masquerading as a QB

 

[tasmlab]

Does he even have a remote chance of succeeding?

Bad o-line, bad defense, 2 weeks to learn the playbook and practice with his receivers. It sounds like an impossible situation for second year, recently QB3. Even a seasoned pro would struggle with that set up.

It's not a starting opportunity, it's a human sacrifice.
