Should the Indianapolis Colts draft a QB in 2023? ForTheShoe | NFLDraft
What makes the quarterback situation in particular so baffling is that it’s the third time the Colts are trying to execute the exact same formula that failed them twice before. Since Andrew Luck’s unexpected retirement ahead of the 2019 season, Indianapolis has trotted out veteran quarterback after veteran quarterback instead of trying their hand at drafting a younger talent.
The time is past for everyone to keep giving Indianapolis and Ballard a pass for mediocrity in the post-Luck era. It has been more than three years since Luck announced his retirement and the Colts have done nothing with their quarterback situation but put into practice what many people call the definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Ryan is having a brutal start to his 15th year in the NFL, already on pace to throw more interceptions and take more sacks than he ever has. He’s already fumbled nine times this year, just three short of his career-high 12 in 2015. Part of all of that is the fact that he’s being pressured on 26% of his dropbacks, the second-highest rate in his career since Pro Football Focus started tracking that metric in 2018, only second to last year’s 27.9% clip.
With a lack of solid receiving talent around him as well, Ryan is also on pace for the lowest passer rating he’s had in a season since his second year as a pro. Most importantly, he isn’t winning games or even helping give the team a real chance to compete. Indianapolis ranks dead last in the NFL in scoring offense.
After three years of trying and failing to be competitive with two different aging, past-his-prime quarterbacks and another that just was never very good, the Colts will be stuck as a consistently mediocre team with no vision for the future unless their philosophy changes. They need to draft a young quarterback next year, a new face that can help Indianapolis build a vision for their offense and the future of their franchise from the ground up.
