  1. You don't like draft picks?     Really?

     

    You realize most every player in the NFL these days is the result of a draft pick.....

     

    They're the Life Blood for every team.....     Every team.....

     

    I don't mind trading....   but one has to be careful....

     

     

    2005 29 Marlin Jackson CB Michigan   2006 30 Joseph Addai RB Louisiana State   2007 32 Anthony Gonzalez WR Ohio State   2008 No Pick — — [18]2009 27 Donald Brown RB Connecticut   2010 31 Jerry Hughes DE Texas Christian   2011 22 Anthony Castonzo OT Boston College   2012 1 * Andrew Luck QB Stanford   2013 24 Björn Werner OLB Florida State

    Draft picks are available in rounds 2-7 also, one first round pick wont kill us IMHO. Maybe TRich can be like reggie bush on an accelerated scale, with added durability.

  2. Yep. And your miserable play in 2011 did the same. Hey at least the Titans went 9-7 that year. No one else besides you will have a winning record...just awful.

    Vance I have enjoyed your perspective for the most part, but the taste in your mouth is sour grapes. Of all the convoluted copping mechanisms I have read on fan forums, you might get the blue ribbon. The Colts may not lose to your crew for another 9 years, at the Luke at least.

  3. I don't think a first round bye would be good for us.

    I will take a bye every time, given a choice that is. It may be a bit unlikely but the Ravens could still lose tomorrow night they just need to beat New England (Gronkless) and Cinci (Daltonful) and the Colts beat KC (Charles in charge!) and Jacksonville (blame on the Henne, or Gabbertless at last), spoiler alert - the oracle has spoken!

  4.  Dolphins 8-6 seem pretty descent after the bully scandal, the Bolts also seem pretty solid. The Rams are down right scary at times, crazy good pass rush. The Cards look great at times on the strength of their D, and the Bengals are just good. The Colts took some beatdowns, don't get me wrong, but they beat 3 great teams and lost to 5 good to very good teams. From my POV if this team keeps building on today and gets a lucky bounce or 2, they might get far enough to break my heart, and I'm okay with that. It's not 2004-05, it's all gravy in 2013-plus

  5. You guys do realize that our draft pick goes to the browns so why lose on purpose to help them.

    There are 7 rounds, we only gave the browns our first. The thought of tanking for draft position at this point is beyond silliness.

  6. It's a safe bet, bengals will hurt us good.  luck will be scrambling all day.  i just hope he is not harassed as much as last week, but that's HIGHLY doubtful.

    J Worthy looks like a beast, and the Cards interior D-line was a match-up nightmare for the boys. I am not certain the Bengals are as strong up the middle as our last 2 opponents. It's a game of match-ups, who know the Colts might dominate Adkins back up and our tackles may take care of the edges and Colts roll Cats.

  7. *knocks on wood*..never say never my friend,,that can bring the thunder down, if you know what I mean..Hopefully we play well down the stretch and go into the playoff a little more healthy, and with some momentum.

    There are 4 weeks left for this team to improve, if a couple of pass catchers get more comfortable (and actually catch the ball), the interior o-line plays with some heart, and Andrew plays better there is nothing that cannot be achieved by this team. Wins and losses don't matter at this point, (Titans will lose sooner than later) these coaches need to open up the play book and maybe try some less conventional plays and formations. The Colts are struggling but they are in a unique situation they have 4 free games to experiment with and find out what this group of men do well together. The Colts will be division champs and owe no apologies, use these games wisely Coach Pagano, the 3rd seed would be great but we have bigger fish to fry.

  8. We have zero reliable pass catchers, and the interior o-line is terrible. The Colts are not SB contenders, they are sloppy and don't excell at much of anything, in the same breath don't let them hang around in a close game, they do know how to win in the 4th.
