Additionally, as I pointed out earlier, the atrocious offensive line is the elephant in the room, not who the starting quarterback is going to be for the final 4 games of the season for a team that has a record of 4-8-1.

Is the OL awful? Absolutely, those clowns are or there stealing money. But why play by far the worst option with an OL that's that trash?

Who cares about "something different" when something different won't matter ??? We have already seen what Sam Ehlinger can do behind that offensive line in the game against the Patriots ...... nothing that Ryan can't do himself, which is get beaten up, not sustain any kind of long drives, and suffer through the losses. Touting a change at quarterback at quarterback at this point would be nothing more than rearranging the decks for The Titanic.

Unless the Titans completely collapse and the Colts miraculously run the table and go undefeated in their final 4 games, the season is over ...... insisting on changing quarterbacks is futile. For myself, I've accepted the fact that since Matt Ryan, Sam Ehlinger, and Nick Foles taking snaps behind that atrocious offensive line are not Randall Cunningham, Michael Vick, or Fran Tarkenton, things won't get better until that offensive line finds a way to revert back to the way that they were playing in 2020 and 2021.

If the Colts somehow manage to go 4-0 over their final 4 games and salvage a .500 season, it won't be because of Matt Ryan, Sam Ehlinger, or Nick Foles ...... it will be because the offensive line actually starts blocking at a competent level.
