That’s actually not bad for the Oline on pass blocking. Could be better but not bad.

Odds are that’s not the pass blocking grade.   It’s more likely their overall grade which factors in run blocking as well. 

Here is the breakdown between pass and run block.

Depending on how bad Dublin’s injury is, could we be bring back Fountain?

Probably but we'll miss Dulin for his special teams ability.

[Twfish's mock offseason 1]

I think i changed my stance a tad and switched to Andy Dalton instead. How would you feel about him instead?

I'd like Dalton more than Carr. At least Dalton has the excuse of a horrible offensive line and losing his favorite target as a reason why he was so bad this year. We'd still have to pay him a high salary and I don't think he's going to take the team any further than Jacoby did this year.

 

I honestly think keeping Jacoby, spending our cap space on other positions, and drafting a quarterback high is the best option. 

[Twfish's mock offseason 1]

Not a fan of trading for Derek Carr at all. I know this goes against popular sentiment, but I think most people on this forum are being too hard on Jacoby. Especially if you believe Derek Carr is an alternative that would help us win.

 

Jacoby is not our QB of the future, but the only problem I had with him was his inaccuracy the second half of the season, but nobody is going to tell me that his MCL injury didn't have an impact on that. A QB's accuracy doesn't just change that drastically without cause.

 

Also many on here are all over Jacoby about his tendency to stare down receivers and not being able to move through progressions and find open receivers. This is a problem with half the quarterbacks in the league, and nobody is worse at this than Derek Carr. It is why most Raiders fans want him to be cut or traded.

 

I'm still doing draft evaluations and trying to figure out which QB is best for us. I don't think Jacoby is our franchise guy, but I think he is a better option than anybody we can get in free agency this year as long as his accuracy issues were a product of his injury.

[Late Round TE Sleeper??]

I agree. He's one of my sleepers this year in the draft too. I don't know if he has the receiving upside that the top TE's in the NFL have, but he's arguably the best blocking tight end in the draft, and is very underrated for his ability to make plays in the passing game.

[If the Browns tender Kareem Hunt with a 3rd round tender, would you get him?]

Nah. There's a Kareem Hunt without the baggage that we can get with a 3rd-4th round pick. His name is Zach Moss.

 

I don't think running back nears the top of our list of concerns though, and I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't addressed at all.

[Derrik brown and Chris jones]

Derrick Brown is not a nose tackle. If we sign Chris Jones and draft Derrick Brown, they would be sharing minutes at the same position. 

 

Also Chris Jones is staying in KC for sure. He wants to be there, and the Chiefs want to keep him. They'll probably cut or restructure Sammy Watkins to make sure of it. 

[Colts @ Steelers Game Day Thread]

We've had a lot of bad luck this week. Credit to the coaching staff on being able to handle all the obstacles coming their way.

 

Hilton goes down in practice, Kelly and Brissett get hurt during the game, and our punter limped off the field.

 

Somehow we still have the lead.

[Rock and a hard place...? Rock Ya-Sin (merge)]

To be fair, the coaching staff didn't put him in a great position leaving him in so many 1-on-1 scenarios when he had been getting beat all day.

 

Rock has potential and he is in the right spot most of the time, but he needs to be able to turn and find the ball if he's going to use his hands as much as he does.

 

Usually if you turn and make a play on the ball, the ref will forgive incidental contact.

There's always that one guy.

[Whoever Covered Fuller is legend]

[Poll: Is Reich the best Colts coach since Dungy?]

This is a tough one, but I think Pagano was a little better. 

 

 

 

 

 

... Of course Reich is the best since Dungy. Why is this even a question? He's on the path to be better than Dungy.

[Leonard's Concussion / Athletic Article]

On 10/14/2019 at 11:13 PM, Moosejawcolt said:

Hmmmm....last I heard Leonard lost weight this year.  He was around 215 and all it amounted to was him  getting blown up in the run game and still not being able to cover .  I just think he is really over rated based on his late season play last year and so far this year

Would love to hear which games late last season you thought he played badly for clarification.

 

I think it's unfair to judge someone the caliber of Darius Leonard on a 2 game sample especially when one game was the first real game he had played in 8 months, and in the other he suffered a concussion in the first quarter.

[Adam Vinatieri (Merge)]

Some of Vinnys kicks look like they are going right down the middle and the wind just carries it like crazy. 

 

I defended him like crazy last week, but we can't afford to lose easy points every week. I would give Vinny one more week at Lucas Oil to get it together. 

 

They should definitely be starting the evaluation process during the week though and start working out other kickers.

[Brian Hoyer signs]

12 minutes ago, SouthernIndianaNDFan said:

They gave him 9 guaranteed, so the other 3 was incentivized? 

No the other 3 million is not guaranteed. From what I've seen, Hoyer will get 5 million this year, and 4 million next year fully guaranteed whether we keep him or not. 

 

The third year Hoyer will make 3 million if we keep him, but gets nothing if we cut him.

[9/1 Roster Moves]

Two things stood out in the Ballard-Reich presser to me.

 

1. Ballard basically said that Lewis is similar to Milton on special teams, but has more upside as a corner.

 

2. Ballard made it seem like we are going to keep 8 O linemen on the roster so we can keep the players we have at other positions.

[colts will have a top 5 defense this year!!!]

Love the optimism but you are setting yourself up for disappointment. Hope you keep the same energy if our defense gets beat up by a good team in LA next week.

 

We are still very young, but we have a lot of promising pieces that make me excited for the future. Top 5 is too premature at the moment imo.

What time do you work? We could maybe look into going at 4:30 or 5 if that works for @Narcosys

I roughly work 9-5. Depends on what is on my schedule usually. I'll work around whatever we end up doing.
