    Colts coach Jim Caldwell apparently will use the bye week to determine whether a change at quarterback is required. Backup Dan Orlovsky wasn't necessarily lobbying to replace ineffective Curtis Painter in the aftermath of the Indianapolis Colts' 17-3 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium. But he made it clear he'd embrace the opportunity. For a second game in a row, Painter was benched in the fourth quarter. He completed 13-of-19 passes for only 94 yards with two interceptions. "There are 53 guys on every team that want a shot," Orlovsky said. "The league is about opportunity and competing, so of course I would love the chance to play. There are a lot of good people in this organization that have made pretty sound decisions for a long time. That's what they get paid to do."

    Marc Bulger is still out there. The "Out Of Retirement" paperwork is a breeze. Just get Brett to show him how to fill it out.
