Good, rest them for the important game 2 weeks from now.

AQ and Justice out too, that probably spells 3 quarters at most for Luck. Don't want this kid to get his head taken off.

Play to win, but it's not looking good. Oh well, onto the playoffs!

No Shipley means Mcglynn at Center probably and No Justice means Linkenbach at RT, Now is the time for Luck to develop that lightening quick delivery!

[PrincetonTiger]

Olsen will start then?

 

 

Will get to see more of Heard and Guy and or Geathers

[coltsrule91]

well watt is gonna get the sack record easily

How long before we see Stanton play?

[Maniq]

And also utilize play action way better.Try a faking stretch running play, I think it would work. Exactly as Houston did on the second play against us two weeks ago. Haven't seen enough play action or mixing plays up. As of now, we are way too predictive and it doesn't benefit especially Luck when not given the time to throw the ball.

R.I.P Andrew Luck & Michael Strahans Sack Record

R.I.P Andrew Luck & Michael Strahans Sack Record

How close is Watt to the record?

[indy1888]

Where did you see that Shipley and Justice are out? Both practiced full today.

that could help

[Gavin]

I am sure he ties i, if its broken then Im cuttin whoever gives up that sack and pickin me up an O Lineman from another teams PS just to send a message, it may not improve the O Line but.... it wont hurt it either

[indy1888]

that could help

Could be down a WR though, Avery limited yesterday and DNP today.

Going to be a tough task IMO looking at who is banged up and will likely not play, especially on defense.

thanks

 

the Avery injury is not good news

[Vance]

How close is Watt to the record?

 

He needs 3 to break it.

[oldunclemark]

I dont think we have any one lineman , other than Costanzo, whose loss is a game breaker

[Maniq]

Just hope everyone comes out alive and at the same time keeping momentum. Would be huge with a win though, rookies tend to be extra vulnerable to decrease through downfalls. And we have a few rookies. 

[PrincetonTiger]

He needs 3 to break it.

he could get there

 

 

Thanks

[Maniq]

He needs 3 to break it.

Doable, he had three against us the last game. He's a exciting player, if not for ending the season against the Colts, I would have cheered for him to break it.

[Vance]

Thanks

 

Actually he needs 2.5

[Vance]

Well he got 3 on Luck and he only dropped back to pass, what? 22 times or something? If he's gonna drop back 30+ times then yes it could very well happen.

Whats your source? I'm not seeing this.

even easier

Agreed. He torched us last time. Absolute beast. And 23 years old. That's just scary.

Do you think the Colts gameplan will be to drop back 30+ times to pass? I mean I understand not laying down for us but, last game of the season & everything locked up, I see Luck handing the ball off a lot.

On the other hand, both Delone Carter and Donald Brown are out, so it would hurt a lot too if Ballard got hurt, and that has been the gameplan all year. So yes, I think we play it to win it, and I don't think Pagano wants our momentum taken away. I could be wrong. Just hope we utilizes play action a little better, that'll give him perhaps a second more for the play to develop.

[NewColtsFan]

This game could get ugly and out of control very, very quickly....

[Superman]

He dropped back 34 times in the previous game. You said 22 earlier.

 

I agree that Watt could get there, but I'm hoping we run the ball a good amount. I don't care whether he breaks it against us or not, but I would like to see us a) keep him from dominating the game again, and b) win.

agreed

[Maniq]

Yeah, I'm a bit nervous too. We can't afford to get hurt, it would kill some momentum heading into the play offs.

hopefully no one gets hurt

[Maniq]

hopefully no one gets hurt

[DarkHorseColts]

Whats your source? I'm not seeing this.

Me neither. I easily could have missed it though.

Here's the last I found:

 

Indy Star / Phil B.

 

Only ones definitely out were:

 

DE Cory Redding (shoulder)

RB Delone Carter (foot)

C Samson Satele (ankle)

NT Antonio Johnson (ankle)

 

Connor, Avery and Tommy Z were questionable, but 'not expected to play'.

[Jules]

Wow, people sound like they did before the GB game. We had a banged up Freeney then and not much at CB. If we have the kind of emotion we did in that game I do like our chances. But, if we lose we lose. We are tough to get by at home so we'll see.

Mike Chappell ‏@mchappell51

You can tell it's Week 17 with glance at injury report. #colts list 14 players, Houston lists 21.

 

Mike Chappell ‏@mchappell51

Pagano: don't see Andrew Luck wearing down. every player is tired this time of year. You play through it. Luck's arm might be little tired

 

Conrad Brunner ‏@1070Bruno

Pagano: Redding has "pretty significant" quad strain, but he should be OK for playoffs.

 

Mike Chappell ‏@mchappell51 Pagano: Redding (quad) should be fine for the playoffs

 

Phil Richards ‏@PhilRichards6

#Colts Pagano: Andrew Luck is no more worn down than anyone else. Everybody's a little tired and nicked up. Sure his arm is a little tired.

 

Tom James ‏@TribStarTJames

Pagano at the podium: Carter, AJohnson, Satele, Redding will not play Sunday. Everybody else is game-time decision.

 

[TKnight85]

Glad to see Shipley & Justice may play

[Coltsman1788]

Redding out will be tough for the defense but you know what...next man up!  I still believe that the Colts will find a way to win this game for Chuck.  Nothing about our season has made sense thus far...so pulling this one out should be no biggie...it's only the Texans.     

[Jules]

A lot of them will play even if tired or banged up.

 

But, it does sound like Redding CAN'T likely play which is a shame. I have no doubt he likely plays next weekend with his history this season fighting through injuries, but definitely this is a case where if a guy is hurt then sit him. A few others I don't know as much about since I can't find anything in detail on them.
