Kerry Collins signed with the Indianapolis Colts on Wednesday, ending a retirement that lasted less than two months.
Colts Fans React To Kerry Collins Signing
When he joined the team, he set off myriad questions amongst Indy faithful. How bad is Peyton Manning's injury? Is Collins our starter in Week 1? Can Kerry Collins be game-ready by then? We've still got a couple preseason games to figure all of that out.
In the meantime, Colts blog Stampede Blue wondered what the Indianapolis offense will look like without Peyton Manning and with Kerry Collins at the helm. And it might not as "sky is falling" as it seems.
I expect to see the rejuvenation of the stretch play. I know Kerry is not the most mobile guy, but I think that play will work with the formations listed above and our re-tooled O-Line. I think it will help the young guys again by letting them get out and hit someone.
I think back to the times Collins killed us with Tennessee and the short passes he was so accurate with. I expect those to be paramount in the game plan if he is there. He is a accurate QB and knows how to check down. I think that will be seen quite often. I would look for Addai, Eldridge and Collie to have the biggest games in the passing attack.
Manning may still get it together by Week 1. However, look for the strong possibility Collins will be keeping things afloat until he is ready.
