GO COLTS!
I agree, Give Painter a chance to get some playing time and show he can or can't do it. Our chances are no better with Collins at the helm. If the defense and rushing game step up every week like last night, the wins will come.I agree with Dungy on the post game. Play Painter even if Collins is healthy. He came into the came stone cold, taken no reps in practice and not played a snap since the 3rd preseason game and outside of the one bad overthrow to Garcon on the first drive and the fumble he played better than Collins. At least he has the ability to get in sync with Wayne and Garcon. He was locked in on Wayne in the pre-season against GB.
You have nothing to lose really, Collins has proven he is a turnover machine and has led the team to two TD drives the 2 and 3/4 games he played. Painter led them to one in one quarter.
I also want to say that if that Colts defense showed up every game they would have more than 1 SB Ring.
Coach Jim Caldwell conceded that he is considering a change at quarterback even if Kerry Collins (possible concussion) is cleared for Week 4.
Collins left Sunday night's loss to the Steelers in the third quarter but the Colts have not said whether he suffered a concussion. Regardless, Caldwell said health wouldn't be the only factor in choosing his starter next week, adding he would "look at all the other factors involved." In three games this year, Collins is completing just 49.0 percent of his passes, is averaging just 160.3 passing yards per game and has tossed a meager two touchdowns. Curtis Painter couldn't be much worse.

Packers did pretty good, eh?
Yep... Disappointed. But last night, the better team won.
Colts didn't force any turn-overs and couldn't stop their passing game.
Lost it fair and square.
