A look back and ahead (final)

It's year 2 of the new era, hard to really know how the new leaders will go about the approach of (continuing) building the monster. The results in year #1, surpassed reasonable expectations, with the wholesale changes and extremly young talent, a playoff game wasn't the norm, what I saw this year, was a team that had some talent, some depth, that bought into to Pagano's blueprint on what it takes to win in the NFL, had some quality coaches who stepped up and kept that going and G.M who has a v

Another Season Goes but Blogs Here!

2012 Season has come and gone! As now it is the off season. But the blogs here stay. As for JPPT1974 blogs, there is NO off season at all! As hopefully these blogs which have more to that than just football and about the GAME OF LIFE will tie you all down until the NFL season begins! So no off season here for these blogs. Thought that I might tell you all!

A look back (and ahead) DB/ST

DB- At cornerback, there was strength in numbers, Powers is solid, but hasn't taken his game up a notch-consistently, Davis played well, he has the skill set to be an elite CB, but......Butler was very impressive, when given a chance, Vaughn, is decent and Gordy adds quality depth At safety Bethea, as always, is a very good and under-appreciated player, Zbikowski, had some good games, but I expected more from a guy who has played in this defense before, Lefeged, is a quality backup and one of th

Congrats to the Ravens! Also 49ers!

Congrats to the Ravens for winning SB 47 as well as congrats to the 49ers. For such a great year. As the Harbaugh brothers bowl gave us drama and really a heart beating Super Bowl. Despite thirty minutes of blackouts in Louisana! Calling it the Super Bowl Blackout! But still, such a great Super Bowl! Hopefully Colts will get it next year!

A look back ( and ahead) DL/LB

DL: a position I viewed as a weakness or at the very least, unpredictable, before the season, played better than I expected, but far from dominant. There are no elite players, as of yet, although some of the young guys, could be........in time. Johnson, added weight and played in the middle, Moala and Redding were the primary ends, Mathews got lots of reps and the rest were mainly, guys off the street next year-there is hope, most of the talent didn't play much or at all, Nevis had a very good r

Belittling, Condescending and Patronizing Posting

Nobody likes to be condescended to. Being on the receiving end of patronizing and belittling comments is annoying and frustrating and can be a cause of conflict between members here on the forums. Technically this is not against the rules but, if it is persistent and causes ongoing issues then moderation may have to step in. However, we think it's important that the people posting make every effort to resolve their own conflicts. Some things to think about......... (1) Am I condescending? (Do yo

Andrew Luck, Colts welcome a familiar change to the offensive philosophy

With Bruce Arians leaving to take the head coaching position for the Arizona Cardinals the Colts have brought in Stanford offensive coordinator, Pep Hamilton, to fill the open OC spot. Obviously, Hamilton comes in bringing past experience running his own version of a West Coast style offense that he ran with Andrew Luck during his time at Stanford. While Hamilton's style is most certainly a very different philosophy from that of Arians, it will be a familiar one for Luck. The signature offensive

A look back ( and ahead) Offensive line and offense summary

T- Castonza had a solid season, not sure if he will ever make elite...Justice was decent, Linkenbach is adequate-short term G- Reitz, missed more time than he played, is solid when healthy, McGlynn is adequate, Linkenbach is more capable, inside C- Satale missed quite a few games, Shipley filled in , more than adequatly next year: I think this is the only and most dire hole on the team and needs a major upgrade, there are no front line players and only 1 that can even be viewed as having that po

A look back (and ahead) WR's/TE's

WR- Reggie, who has been consistently productive over his entire career, took his game to another level, Avery had a productive season, Hilton surprised (me) I was expecting more of a role player, Collie, just can't shake the injury bug, Brazill had some nice catches next year: At some point Reggie will slow down (33) he currently ranks #10 all-time in receptions and #14, in yards and should end up next year around 7th, in each category, Hilton was the most productive rookie WR in the league and

Peyton Manning Has Nothing to Be Ashamed Of!

He really does not as he sat on the sidelines in 2011. And that he really revived his career. And that despite a dream season that ended badly. He really has nothing at all to be ashamed of. Congrats Peyton as you deserve NFL 2012 Comeback Player of the Year!

Parks and Recreation” this Thursday, Jan. 17 at 8:30pm (NBC) will feature Reggie Wayne, Andrew Luck and Jim Irsay

Wow, what a difference a year makes....... Remember last January when Rob Lowe sparked internet mayhem by tweeting that Peyton Manning was going to retire? Almost a year to the day, Rob Lowe will appear with Andrew Luck, Reggie Wayne and Jim Irsay on an episode of Parks and Recreation. This is Mac's chance to watch the show. I seem to recall he never heard of it.

Hindsight? Maybe

As anyone who has read my blogs has figured out, I tend to view things completly different than most..... I think one of the things that alianated many fans against Polian was his decision to rest players and not go for the perfect season, I don't know- for sure-what I would have done given the option, I am leaning towards, the same decision he made, his record speaks for itself, there is not another G.M. who can equal his success over his career and who I am to question that anyways, back to th

A look back ( and ahead) QB-RB

QB-What can be said about Andrew Luck, that hasn't been said.........he came into this league with maybe more hype than any other QB and exceded expectations..........the guy's game is flawless, he is already one of the leagues better QB's and how great he will be, will be fun to watch The only thing we know about the backups is, they looked very good in pre season and the only way we will really find out is if Luck gets hurt next year- Luck will have experience-look out!!

My Pre-Combine and Draft Bowls Colts Mock/FA

Hey everyone, I am back with my Pre-Combine and Draft Bowls (Senior Bowl, East-West Shrine Game, etc.) Mock/FA!! I am going to start off with Free Agency. We have many needs this year, but none is bigger than our O-Line. We need to keep Luck upright next season because I don't know if he can take as many hits as last season. OG's Andy Levitre and Louis Vasquez: Levitre and Vasquez are, in my opinion, the two best Offensive Guards hitting Free Agency this offseason. They are both still young play
