Redding/Johnson no go for Sunday

[Jules]

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.     

 

We had Redding out before this season didn't we? I don't remember what games but wasn't it early on? He needs to heal up though.

 

And yeah I don't post all the quotes but there are a lot of warm and fuzzy quotes about Sunday's game too.

He only missed the Browns game. I thought he missed a couple/three games, but I think the other games were in preseason.

Yeah he's missed some time before and  our run defense seemed to suffer for it.  Nevertheless though...I agree that if he needs the rest then rest him.  Playoffs are what is important but that said I still expect the Colts to play to win with who they have suited up.  I want this team to come out jacked, fired up, and ready to lay the wood.

Oh thats it? I thought he missed a few more early on. But, he is a warrior. He seems to often have an injury and still end up playing and playing well.

 

No doubt I want him to sit this game though. And he is.

 

The injury reports though do not sound as dire to me as some made it initially sound but I guess we will see on Sunday what the scoop is.

Oh no doubt they should have some fun welcoming back Chuck:

Pagano, says they targeted this date, being able to get back and run out with the team is a blessing

[krunk]

I have seen absolutely nothing that says Justice and Shipley won't play.

[NewColtsFan]

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.

 

 

Remember, this game is hugely important to Houston.   Win, and they get home field advantage throughout the playoffs.   Lose, and they don't.

 

But for the Colts, it means nothing in terms of the playoffs.   We're the same win or lose.

 

It only means something because it would be nice to win in Pagano's first game back and it would be nice to win as we go into the playoffs.

 

Nice vs. Really, Really important.   

 

Advantage Houston...

I know. But, it sure would be nice to keep it going in Indy vs. them and our home dominance. I remember before the Vikings game this year reading that they never won in Indy either, for some reason I never knew that or realized it.

 

Superman is right too, looked it up and Redding has only missed the Browns game. As into not resting I am, I don't want guys who are hurt to be forced to play.

Yep.

#colts Chuck Pagano: Out for Sunday -- Delone Carter, Cory Redding, Samson Satele, Antonio Johnson. Everyone else questionable.

[chrisfarley]

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

Costanzo has his share of misses. Sometimes he looks invisible. Can't figure this player out yet. Better than the rest isn't sayin' much. Jury still out but IMO he's going to get much better.

[GoColts8818]

Yikes that means the whole front three is out.  Add to that that Conner would be playing his first game back and Freeman is playing with a club and the run defense might look like KC again. 

[Stephen]

Avery being out would be good rest him for playoffs that means hilton and brazil will get more catches and the more hilton gets the ball the better our chances of winning

[Freenyfan102]

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

Its linkencrap it going to be him......You know the guy every person on her like for some odd reason

I'll take Linkenbach at Guard over Olsen any day of the week

Really Remember the Thursday night game against the Charger......Manning getting pressure up the middle all the time.....Guess who was blocking.....Oh thats right linkencrap

Check out a Pull Block attempt Olsen failed miserably at from his left guard spot to right end, I believe in 2nd quarter vs Bears on Idonije, it was horrendous, There is more from this year I can point out, He was a joke blocking

[Moncrief]

We pray.

[Steagles]

I'd just offer up Luck lying down 3 times and beg Watt not to kill him otherwise.

[krunk]

I'm a bit skeptical of what the pass rush is going to be like with Redding and Mookie out. There's really no one left in the middle to half way provide it. Down to people like Geathers, Heard, Tevaseu, Matthews. Not good.

Crazy that the top 5 guys on the  D Line depth chart plus Chapman are not availble. Neevis , Maola , McKinney , Mookie and Redding. Absurd....

[chrisfarley]

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!

Redding is always hurt. I like his inspiration but geez, Glass Corey, here we go.
