Momentum is everything. Look at the Patriots 18-1 loss to the Giants.
exactly look at that momentum, they went for the perfect season and still came up short...so whats to say the same wouldnt happen to us, would you have been happy if we went 18-1?
-
My point is I just want this season to mean something by us getting the #1 pick. I don't care what we do with it, that is up to the FO. I just want to have the best chance to improve this team for the future whether it be drafting Luck or trading for a slew of picks. I don't care as long as we have the best chance to improve.
well you do understand we are still open to get the number one pick,
but when we win next week you are just going to be straight ticked! Right?
-
QUICK get the guy who was here before screaming "YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME" Based on odds, I would rather have seen the colts win out and risk injury it would have given them a better chance at a SB ring.
you do play to win the game, but when you already won a first round bye in the playoffs and homefield advantage, you already have the edge in the playoffs, so lets rest our starters and have an even more edge against a team that might be banged up and missing some key starters
-
ugh.. once again.. you have the BEST CHANCE and BEST ODDS to succeed with the #1 pick. I don't care who got drafted where. History tells us that the #1 pick is consistently the most valuable.
More valuable for a trade, thats about it..at least with a trade you know you will pick up an extra pick somewhere in the future. So what is your point exactly, maybe none of us understand
-
Wasn't it your "goal" to win? did that happen?
Not resting our starts and risking the chance of them getting injured, then we probably wouldnt have made it far in the playoffs, but you would have been happy just to be 16-0 and lose in the playoff?
or you could be proud we at least made it to the superbowl and was 1interception away from winning on a 14-2 record
-
Lose to win later... sounds like a plan you don't understand, it's ok football is a complicated sport. not everyone gets it.
Like I have stated before, which you seem to have a problem comprehending, you dont even know if the first round player will be any good in the nfl...they could very well be a bust,
Look at this scenario with you 1 track mind, will ya? What if we lose on purpose(tank) as you wish, then pick a bust with our number 1 pick...It wouldnt be the lose/win situation your trying to preach...it would be a lose/lose situation So why not win now and potential have a win/win situation possibly?
-
Your losing, digging a hole that you cannot escape.
If anyone lost tonight it was you and the texans, none of us are trying to win a stupid argument over the internet, really we are all here just to support our team and our opinions
Seeing how OUR colts won, when you want them to lose, labels you as the loser..things just didnt go your way
-
I have to agree with you SilentHill. I have been a diehard Colts fan since they were in Baltimore and I was a little kid. I never want the Colts to lose...however....this season is gone. They gain nothing but pride by winning next week against Jacksonville.
I remember back to Harbaughs final year with the Colts. It took two things happening the last week. The Colts lose to the Vikings, I believe. And the Cardinals upset the Falcons. Those two things put the Colts at the #1 pick. Now, imagine what the Cotls would have been if they had NOT gotten Peyton Manning.
I am sure it will work out either way. If we lose to Jacksonville, Andrew Luck will be the future QB in a few years. If we win, I think Justin Blackmon will be the next great Colt WR. And then maybe Tannehill in the 2nd or taking a chance on Kellen Moore in the 4th would be interesting.
your right whoever would have came up with the number 1 pick could have more than likely went with Leaf, Which if I remember, everyone thought the colts would, but we didnt we took Manning instead, and Leaf went second, so no one can truly say what will happen next week, or this upcoming draft. we can all voice our opinions. My opinion is finish the year strong and make the best out of whatever draft pick we get. Who knows
-
I want them to win, Sorry guys Id rather just build this team up in other positions and then work on a qb next draft if possible.
-
so now you just admitted you wanted the colts to tank the season.......but if every team did this they would just drive away fans and that wouldn't be very logical.......
the dudes an dipstick, just talking in circles.
-
Why because I want whats best for the future of the team?
If you wanted whats best, you want them to win every time they step on to the field.
-
Hey they did it before, they are obviously good at losing, I just want them to stick to their original game plan. Maybe bring Painter back
Which makes you not a fan for the Colts.
-
no one said anything about tanking.
Oh right, just play like they have before they started winning, which the same thing as wishing they would lose, because how they were previously playing wasnt getting us any W's..so if you wish for that I think would be the same as wishing for us to just give up(tank).
-
HAH. The best thing for the team is wins my friend. If its being selfish to cheer for a Colts win every week then I'll gladly admit that I am as selfish as they come. Cause ill do it if their 0-15 or 16-0.
Absolutely, Guys...Lets all be selfish fans, Because Wanting to tank a season for the number 1 pick isnt selfish, Right SilentHill?
-
your a troll. I didn't want them to throw the game, I just wanted them to play as they have been.
LOL THAT DOESNT MAKE ANY SENSE
-
Your post gives me a headache. Where or when did I ever say I wanted luck?
well your pretty concerned about us getting the number 1 pick, in which luck has been named the number 1 prospect of the nfl, now if you dont want luck, then why are you even crying about us not getting the number 1 over all pick?
-
Regardless if this game is meaningless, this win has made me very happy, it was good to see the team pull through the win, and to be honest, Id care less if we got the overall number 1 pick, no matter what number we get, we will get a good pick and whoever they are, will contribute more than a qb that will sit under peyton
just my opinion
-
Yea and look at Payton Manning.... #1 pick.... oh.... forgot about that? I don't care what we do with the pick whether it be draft luck, Ryan leaf or Joe schmo who never pans out. the #1 pick gives us the most options and the best chance to have a great draft.
Its Peyton...and the 2nd or 3rd round just has so many less options? what 2 different players?
-
Well in my mind a win is the #1 pick, so do you really want your team to "win" or not? This season is a huge LOSS if we miss out on that pick because we decided to go on a 3 game win streak after going 0-13.
Well in your mind your wrong, you think the 49s had a "Win" when they got Alex smith in the 1st round pick. When 24 picks later Aaron Rogers got picked up, Which is clearly the best qb in that draft class.
Having the number 1 pick isnt always winning...Look at the term BUST, there are many first round overall number 1 picks that are considered bust..
-
LIke I said you can't give me any reason. It's ok it's what I expected.
Dont really understand what other explanation you want, we are fans of the Indianapolis Colts, a team that has had a losing record all season, and are now happy to see them pull off wins. People always asked what a "true fan" is..I think we are all clear that you are the true definition of a "fake fan". Cant even say you are a real fan with this cry baby act your putting on. Upset because we won! Are you even serious?

Justin Blackmon WR Oklahoma State
People are going to scream for defense, but I think it is clear the Colts want more young play makers. I doubt Wayne will be resigned, so it makes the most sense to me.
Honestly, if the Colts can beat Tennessee and Houston, Jacksonville shouldn't be a problem.
Yeah I agree, I wish reggie could come back, but You know if he doesnt we have to pick someone to take him, Right? But also I say we work on Defense but I mean at this point I think the field is open to anything at this point
-
Why cant we trade our first round #1 overall pick for a later first round pick and next years first round pick and try to snag barkley Next year?
Work on getting a good receiver, and strong defense to build around the next face of the franchise?
-
I just wish this season was already over so he can be back in a colts uniform and winning the AFC south again, Ill admit Im a spoiled fan, when we drafted manning I was only 9 years old, and his first season was the only losing season I remember...So yeah this season has been rough, but ever since I can remember I have watched on of the greats on the field winning for my home team.
Alot of talk about Manning leaving the franchise like Farve did Greenbay or like Warner did St. Louis. I personally dont see him going anywhere, he will adjust his contract to be cap friendly like he has always done, He has quoted in the past" ill take anything bring back other guys". As far as wayne, I dont see him coming back. I wish he would but I just dont see it happening.
Irsay needs to do a spring cleaning this upcoming season. We need to get a new D scheme, Coach, and a new HC...I have seen where people want the polians gone, I dont really care if they leave or not to be honest. I just want Caldwell out and a new D scheme
-
I will say it again. slowly. I never said Bill would let him play. Just that he WANTS to play. People, I'm not delusional, I don't think the docs would clear him, or even if they did, that BP would let him.
I just wanted to see the article!
Id like to see it too, Sometime people on these forums take text out of context and ASSUME things.
Dont sweat it! Id like see something that lets me know manning can compete again at a high level still...There is no doubt in my mind. But Its more like a comfort thing
Merry Christmas! Yay! Colts Pulled It Out!
