A leader, team player and competitive almost to a fault. He is a solid back up for the Colts.
Go get ‘em Matt!

The colts fans should feel very lucky to have a backup
Quarterback the caliber of Matt Hasselbeck. I know the Titans fans aren’t happy about losing him.

At this point he’s playing cuz he loves the game, not because he needs the money or thinks he has a shot at starting somewhere or to get the ring the Stealers stole from him. He has Warren Moon’s Seattle TV job
waiting for him whenever he hangs up his cleats. They may as well put his #8 up in the ring of honor at the C-Link now and cover it with a tarp for the time being.

Oh, and Hass is a great team player and person too. Although in Polain’s defense, I’ve heard from people who knew former Colts players that being PM’s backup was not really a good job for many reasons.

This roster transaction would keep me up every single night. Of all the QBs out there and all of the new QBs about to be out there, and you want Hasselbeck? Did Irsay watch the tape of last year? I did and it wasn’t pretty.

Guy he’s a cheap safety net in case Luck gets hurt and unless your expecting Luck to miss time i don’t know why your gonna lose sleep…. even if luck does get hurt Hasselbeck is a pretty decent fill in, and plus he’s the best backup QB the colts ever signed in recent history.

Also what new QB’s are you expecting to get?? Hasselbeck was one of the best FA left out there and with all the holes the colts have it would be stupid to waste a pick on a backup

Hasselbeck provides good depth at the position.

This guy is really really good when he is in his zone, plus he is a GREAT person to have on your team as a captain of sorts.

Luck will grow much better with Hasselbeck there.

They had a chance to really beef up the team. Oh well.
