The concern with Colt is definitely injury history so you have to backstop him with other options, which exactly what all of us are saying.
He did some good things when he came in for Alex against the Texans, almost brought us back from a big hole. Then had a 3-INT stinker against Dallas the next week. Then got hurt.
I don't agree that he can't play decent football - I do agree that you can't count on him for 16 games, hence the need for a backup plan.
But if 3-13 this year means we preserve the long term cap flexibility, then I'll live with it. My main point is I don't want to see us do anything that compromises our cap flexibility because in that case you wouldn't be able to find a coach on earth that would want this job.
