 Dan-O a colt now did you guyts catch this? Quote: The Indianapolis Colts have agreed to terms with free-agent quarterback Dan Orlovsky, according to a league source.

With starting quarterback Kerry Collins battling concussion-like symptoms following Sunday night's 23-20 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Colts auditioned Orlovsky and ex-Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Brodie Croyle on Tuesday, the Indianapolis Star reported.
While neither signal-caller boasts an impressive resume, Orlovsky had the inside edge on the basis of a few weeks spent in the Colts' system during the preseason. Orlovsky was among the Colts' final cuts when they trimmed their roster down to 53, but now he might be in the mix for the starting spot in Week 4.
There's no telling if coach Jim Caldwell believes Collins is the man for the job anymore -- concussion or no concussion -- and Curtis Painter was uneven during the second half against the Steelers, completing 5 of 11 passes for 60 yards.
Orlovsky has thrown for 1,679 yards and eight touchdowns to eight interceptions in 13 career games.
Good luck Dan -O. Just pay attention to where the back of the endzone is will ya?

Re: Dan-O a colt now He played in all 4 preseason games for them but was cut. He's not the answer.

Re: Dan-O a colt now They signed Dan-O, I guess they are out of the Andrew Luck Sweepstakes now with the heir apparent to Manning already in the fold.

Re: Dan-O a colt now Hard to believe they aren't at least talking to Garrard. I'm not a big supporter of his, but he's better than whomever they have on their roster that can play right now.

Re: Dan-O a colt now Colts also placed one of their Safeties on IR. Do we need to worry about them signing Ricardo Silva off our PS?

Fisher or Joekel or Lane Johnson for #5 overall. I have settled on Johnson as my preference. The only thing Joekel and Fisher have over him is experience at LT. 2 years from now, Lane Johnson will be known as the best LT of this draft!

Re: Dan-O a colt now No, they signed Dan-o and someone else with the 2 people they placed on IR. I don't think anyone holds Ricardo Silva as game ready except for some people here.
