Colts Stick with Joe Flacco as Starting QB Against Jets

Despite recent struggles, Coach Shane Steichen continues to favor Flacco's veteran presence over Anthony Richardson's youthful inconsistency.

Joe Flacco, 39, will start his third consecutive game for the Colts against the New York Jets, despite having thrown six interceptions in two games.
Coach Shane Steichen defends his decision, citing Flacco's experience and leadership as crucial for the Colts' playoff hopes.
The Colts have lost three straight games, dropping to a 4-6 record, but remain just one game behind the final playoff spot in the AFC.
Anthony Richardson, the 22-year-old backup, has been benched but remains part of the team's future plans despite his current league-worst completion percentage.
Flacco's performance in earlier games, where he showed promise, is a key factor in Steichen's decision to keep him as the starter.
