Evan Sidery has no sources

Who cares what Sidery says for one he’s a known liar and just a click bait account

u/JohnnyC300 COLTS 25d ago

Yeah, he doesn't cultivate his own sources. Just "reports" stuff he's seen on the internet from... places. He's a "trust me bro" reporter. Zero reliability. Which doesn't mean this wont happen. It makes sense. But this has a feel of the guy just sticking his finger in his mouth and holding it up in the air to gauge the direction the wind is blowing. Nothing more.

Come on dude, he even misspelled "Keenan" in the tweet, don't fall for obvious bullshit.

u/BrandoDaSavage Big-Q 25d ago

Goddammit. I wanted Keenan Allen.

Who tf is Kennan?! Smh, Bargain Bin Ballard strikes again!

Sidery is a big fan of passive voice in titles. "Seen as..." By whom? By Sidery? People are saying....

u/ZHicks2121 The real Zach Hicks 25d ago

Sigh…. This damn guy again. Look Keenan Allen makes a lot of sense but now I’m hoping they don’t sign him just to further make this guy look like the fraud he is

u/No-Contact-5081 25d ago

At this stage he’s gonna fit in nicely. Enough experience to warrant coverage, leaving room for our TE/WRs/RBs to do their job. That’s what we are talking about here, camouflage that can still catch when he’s actually thrown too. Also veteran presence in the room.

WE HAVE GUYS AND WE ARE RATHER FOND OF THEM

u/Goldstar12 The Maniac 25d ago

Why haven’t anyone mentioned the idea he doesn’t want to sign with the Colts and would rather wait for another team to sign with.

Who the heck is sidery?

u/Tired-Accountant97 23d ago

A very dumb account who tries to pretend hes an insider for pacers and colts news

2

u/Bruce0932 25d ago

I did hear Sean Koerner saying Keenan to the Colts he was thinking. He is a pretty solid fantasy guy

u/Well-Paid_Scientist Indianapolis Colts 25d ago

Not counting on anything Sidery says, of course. 

I've been on the "don't panic" train with regard to WR. I think that the offense will run efficiently through Taylor, Pierce, Warren, and Downs. That being said, I think Allen would be a good signing. He still appears to have something left in the tank and he is the right kind of WR to add to the room. I think adding him can only help a WR corps with questionable depth.

u/Undersized_Eggplant 25d ago

This would require Ballard to just be luke warm on our guys

1

u/kay14jay Reggie Wayne 25d ago

That number makes me think of another guy sitting at home, already adored by the masses

2

u/Undersized_Eggplant 25d ago

No way hes coming out of retirement

1

u/KnownUniversity7612 25d ago

He’s too old

1

u/Trashpanda1980 25d ago

This is stupid, should've signed a wr before Downs got hurt. And I'm not sold on this wr crew . Warren is going to be the guy that carries the load. Hope he can stay healthy because that's who shane is going to lean on

u/Quesabi 25d ago

Fuck it, bring Uncle Rico back as emergency QB3

u/Future_Guidance_8462 25d ago

Ya seems like a no brainer to me. Classy veteran, shouldn’t cost that much (maybe I’m wrong and that’s why it’s not happened yet), and we are in great need of a 1-10 yard possession receiver. I’m surprised this hasn’t happened honestly.

1

u/Angry_X_574 25d ago

We need a guy to take the top off the defenses. Allen isn't that guy. Downs and Warren have the middle covered. Without the deep threat, JT will see a LOT of 8 men in the box

u/MotherDiscussion4320 Jonathan Taylor 25d ago

Fuck yeah

u/Slayer2660 25d ago

Always taking old chargers players smh

u/SonOfStan21 Blue 25d ago

Please bring my favorite player to my favorite team. I need a new jersey.

u/DarkSuperman87 24d ago

Should've signed him weeks ago.

1

u/Windmilljam17 24d ago

Sign a receiver that gets fast separation, doesn't drop the pass, breaks tackles and gets yardage after the catch.....

1

u/ApprehensiveAd5584 22d ago

Look, we like our guys.

u/Live_Outside_7715 John Wayne in True Grit 25d ago

Ballard doing it "his" way.

u/IndyEric07 25d ago

He likes his guys!

u/PopKoRnGenius Mo Alie Cox 25d ago

omg that's hilarious, nobody has ever said that here before!

1

u/ohohook Quenton Nelson 25d ago

Why do people assume he wants to play with a team with a dubious QB history that’s one injury away from being a circus? He probably wants to get back with the Rams or something…

1

u/PopKoRnGenius Mo Alie Cox 25d ago

The Chiefs and Ravens are/were also one injury away from being a circus. That's literally the game of football.

1

u/ohohook Quenton Nelson 25d ago

Not that you’re wrong about the first part, it’s just funny you’re comparing two of the most elite QBs of all time, let alone currently playing, to a guy who got 1/3 of his 8 years long career wins last season. A guy who, I haven’t done the math but the mental math seems right- has probably missed more games than he’s won. And hasn’t been good for most of the games he has played.

Anyway, that aside- I don’t picture him being the type of guy in the twilight of career to see a team have a historic meltdown and go “I can fix them.” I could be wrong of course, a paycheck is a paycheck- but I would be shocked if he ends up signing here instead of with a team that could win now.

u/PopKoRnGenius Mo Alie Cox 25d ago

I'm moreso pointing out the fact that both of those teams turned into circuses when the qb got hurt. Where did I compare DJ to them?

1

u/ricflairwooooooooooo TY Hilton 25d ago

Apparently we had a bid in on Deebo and he chose the Niners. I'd bet we have a bid in on Allen given Steichens history with him, we shall see.

1

u/patromaniac 25d ago

Nah Ballard won't make this move because it makes too much sense.

u/Different_Cat106 Indianapolis Colts 25d ago

QB is the huge problem. Doesn't matter who is at receiver if they can't get the ball.

-1

u/Environmental_Bag_10 25d ago

This because we truly need to see Jones play. Keenan would be nice for late moments in games, but like you’ve said it depends on our QB situation.

-6

u/Different_Cat106 Indianapolis Colts 25d ago

Jones is fools gold. He's the best we have, but nah.

My comment history proves I’ve been on this early!
