Things must be good

if we are all worried about Painter

So far, there’s no indication the Colts are among those crying out, and there’s no indication they’re doing much fretting, either. Colts Head Jim Caldwell, asked on Monday about Painter’s status as the No. 2 quarterback, was was expectedly matter of fact.

“The status hasn’t changed,” Caldwell said. “You have to take it all into consideration – how well they do, how much material they know and understand, how they can regurgitate it. You have to look at everything. You all don’t get a chance to see who was supposed to be where on what route and what was supposed to happen in this situation.

“There are a lot of factors that go into it – dropped passes and things of that nature. Sometimes people can get a little ahead of themselves and not give an individual a fair shake.”
