Sam Ehlinger is clearly the better choice right now for a Colts’ team that has been struggling with poor pass protection every single game this season. Ehlinger actually managed to extend a few plays and get positive yardage with his legs, and was spot on as a passer, as his improved mechanics were on point against the Commanders. Even if Ryan heals from his injury, I think Ehlinger should be the Colts’ starting quarterback the rest of the season. If he is good then you finally found yourself a young quarterback that can be the guy for the foreseeable future, and if he is bad then you at least know 100% sure that he is not the guy and the team gets a high draft pick to be able to get that guy.
