There’s something fishy going on....

Could Ballard be pulling a head fake and deliver us a different QB? Certainly not out of the realm of possibility. Even likely, perhaps. Last offseason, it wasn't a secret we were interested in Rivers:

Of course, we haven't even reached the offseason yet this year, and Rivers was a free agent and not a trade target, so maybe its premature to say this situation is exactly comparable.

Could be true, might not be. Results are the same.

Results are the same, but there's a world of difference in what it means.

I can’t see it unless hearing Irsay stand there and say the doors still open In front of the world caused a change of heart

I’m thinking Sam Darnold.

Part of me has assumed that we won't be going for a big free agent QB.
Rivers was OK because it was a 1 year deal. Its seems unlikely Ballard wants to lock in to a free agent on a long term contract. Ballard also likely doesn't want to ship out another 1st round draft pick after doing it for Buckner.
Also Irsay said in his interview that its better to draft your guy.

I think its Eason Season.

Ballard made it clear that the Colts aren't even certain he's ready to compete for the backup job. If he opens 2021 training camp #1 on the Colts QB depth chart, something has gone horribly wrong.

I feel like its stafford or a trade up and draft.

I think it’s Stafford. I have no idea what their plan B is. I don’t think they do either. Nick Foles? Draft might be plan C.

Usually the obvious happens with this team. Don’t see a lot of head fakes.
