SMH. Of course the players and new coaching staff will try and win every game. However, the roster will be blown up, no high price free agents will be signed, high priced players who aren't part of our future will be cut. We won't be signing teddy Bridgewater, or Nick foles and will likely roll with a QB on our roster right now. The org will try and fill holes, along both lines probably as a priority, and the roster will be talent deficient in many areas as it is rebuilt over the next 2-3 years including this year at the QB position.
But, the players and coaches will try and win every game they play in, they just will likely be talent deficient enough to lose more games than we did last year and hopefully that will result in us being able to be in a position to draft a franchise QB without having to mortgage the farm to get trade up because we will be drafting very high. This is the plan that seems to be coming out of those that have sources close to the organization. Maybe it won't happen, but I hope it does because that's the only way we will be able to break this horrific 20 year cycle of mediocrity, and that's to hit on a franchise QB in the draft.
Save your SMH for the TankGate nuts
Although you pretty much mimic'd my thought process on how the team will proceed going forward. I'm ribbing the fans that think our new playbook will have plays called TankRun left but block right or have the hot receiver waving their hand while running his route. Or starting all the 2nd and third stringers.
Most fans think the Colts Tanked the entire season to get Luck. Once a team reaches the 10 game mark they possibly can get away (like they did) with starting the second stringer etc but it's not going down like a lot of fans think.
