Then the Colts jersey thing. At this point, at least from Fisher's perspective, he's gotta be wondering if he'll still have a job come January. He's repeatedly said that "Kerry Collins gives us our best chance to win" and he knows that the only way he keeps his job is if he starts winning some games. So does he stick with Kerry Collins because he feels that it gives him the best chance of keeping his job? Alternatively, Bud might force him to play VY. Which would be kinda funny --- Fisher would have to pull VY out of his doghouse, put him in the game, and hope that VY wins some games. You could say that Fisher's job security would be in VY's hands.

Id put money on Collins starting the next game. I question what the intentions of fisher are at that point IE saving face or rep/ planning for the future. It doesnt appear Collins thinks there is a chance he wont be starting. Coming off a bye when your 0-6 is relatively the "perfect time" to start looking at the future of you ask me so if VY doesnt come out as the starter on week 8 then we know whats up
