for quarterback Jacoby Brissett last year and they made it clear that anyone looking to pluck him from their roster this year would have to pay a heavy price to make a deal Reggie Wayne Color Rush Jersey , but Brissett has been equally clear about his hopes for the future.Brissett wants to be a starting quarterback and there’s no chance of that happening with the Colts as long as Andrew Luck is in the picture. He’ll be a free agent after the 2019 season and head coach Frank Reich’s recent comments about Brissett suggest that he’ll have to wait at least that long for any chance of being the lead guy for an offense.“It’s impossible for me to have a higher opinion of Jacoby than I do,” Reich said, via Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan. “I said it last year, I think he’s a top 20 quarterback. I still say that. After watching him for a year, this guy’s really good. I tell Chris all the time, ‘Please don’t let him go. I don’t care what anybody offers him. Don’t let him go.’ I love Jacoby. The problem is now I’ve gotten to know Jacoby and, at some point, I hope that it works out for Jacoby. But not now.”Brissett started two games for the Patriots as a rookie in 2016 and he started 15 games when Luck was out with a right shoulder injury in 2017, but the hope in Indianapolis is that he does little more than hold a clipboard until the 2020 season. EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Andrew Luck expects a lot more out of himself at this point in his career. He also figures the Indianapolis Colts would have had a few more wins right now.The losses are piling up, though https://www.coltsfanshop.com/Rigoberto-Sanchez-Jersey , and a four-game skid had the quarterback pondering whether it’s tough finding the joy in football.“At times, especially when I do things — stupid is the only word that comes to mind,” Luck said after a 42-34 loss to the New York Jets on Sunday. “We do some silly things to ourselves, but when it comes to having fun playing, I’m having fun playing.”The results just haven’t been there yet for the Colts (1-5), who made a handful of mistakes in this one as their season begins to spiral.“It’s a bit frustrating,” Luck said. “I feel like a broken record, but talking about it, that’s the easy part. It’s doing it, living it, but I’m not discouraged.”Luck was 23 of 43 for 301 yards with touchdowns to Marcus Johnson Marlon Mack Jersey , Eric Ebron, Erik Swoope and Chester Rogers, but he was also intercepted three times. The first came on the Colts’ second play of scrimmage when Morris Claiborne took a tipped pass 17 yards to the end zone to put Indianapolis in an early hole.The Colts turned the ball over four times, and the Jets (3-3) took advantage.“Unfortunately, it was kind of a similar formula,” coach Frank Reich said. “Just too many mistakes early.”The Colts were playing short-handed with several starters sidelined, including wide receiver T.Y. Hilton, defensive linemen Denico Autry and Margus Hunt, tight end Jack Doyle, safety Clayton Geathers and right tackle Denzelle Good.Despite that, Indianapolis was still in the game late.The Jets built a 30-13 lead early in the third quarter Quenton Nelson Color Rush Jersey , but the Colts chipped away. Luck’s 2-yard TD pass to Swoope made it 33-27 just 8 seconds into the final period — plenty of time to turn things around.Instead, Jason Myers kicked three of his Jets-record seven field goals to make it a 15-point deficit late in the game. Luck connected with Rogers on a 17-yard touchdown with 1:51 left, but Rigoberto Sanchez’s onside kick was recovered by Neal Sterling and Sam Darnold took three kneel-downs to end it.“I can just say this at the onset: I believe in what we are doing,” Reich said. “I believe in our guys, but we just have to play better football. We started that game, just too many mistakes.”There were several dropped passes on both sides, but there were some egregious ones by the Colts that didn’t help Luck any.“It’s mental,” running back Marlon Mack said. “We just have to lock in and focus. Everyone here can catch. We just have to lock in and squeeze the ball.”Luck, however, refused to point any fingers at his receivers’ slippery hands.“I’ll be concerned about drops when I throw the perfect ball every time I drop back, and I certainly do not do that https://www.coltsfanshop.com/Andrew-Luck-Jersey ,” he said. “Those guys are going to keep grinding. I’m proud of them. I love going to work with them every day. It’s a great group.”Even with the early issues, the Colts actually led 13-10 in the second quarter after two field goals by Adam Vinatieri.But errors came into play again, and the Jets made the most of them.New York forced a turnover when Jamal Adams knocked the ball out of Robert Turbin’s hands and Jordan Jenkins recovered. Darnold converted two third-down plays on the ensuing drive to get the ball to the Colts 10. Darnold zipped a pass to Pryor in the front of the end zone for a 17-13 lead with 2:35 left before halftime.New York took advantage of another turnover when Luck’s pass to Ryan Grant deflected off the receiver’s hands and right to Avery Williamson, who returned the ball 31 yards to the Colts 22. That resulted in a 48-yarder by Myers that put New York in front 20-13.The Colts then quickly went three-and-out — and the Jets got the ball at their 28 with 42 seconds left before halftime. Darnold hit a series of passes and, with 18 seconds left, found Jermaine Kearse in the middle of the field for 23 yards. Myers booted a 32-yarder as time expired to put New York up 23-13.“We’re six games into this now,” Luck said. “No one is young in the NFL anymore. Before we can learn how to win, we have to learn how not to lose. We have to take that step.”
