  1. Lets not forget the pass rush has been very mediocre to bad all year. I think the Colts were 27th in team sacks this year. Corners are going to get exposed when the quarterback has all day to throw, which was the case in several games. I really like Vontae and would be fine with him as the #1 corner going forward, but i think its crucial we bring in someone better to play on the other side of him. Probably wont happen though I doubt they cut Toler after one year.

  2. It's about like the Monday night football preview vs the chargers. Where they only showed andrew luck on the commercial and didn't even say who they were playing. LoL.

    Im suprised they didnt photoshop him out of his Colts uniform and have him in just a plain #12 jersey like Eli Manning in the Citizen commercials.

  3. They focus more on teams that are more likely to make a run in the playoffs.  Based on the way the Colts have dropped a few stinkers, they don't know if the team is seriously a contender or not, and in their estimation definitely not.  Collinsworth and many others have made their picks AWAY from the Colts in the last two weeks. I realize Collinsworth is not with ESPN but many have grabbed his coattails. I can't say I blame them, but I would like to have the real Colts please stand up.  Who are we?  Not really sure but I hope we are not the team that played the Rams, Cardinals, & Bengals.

    But looking at it that way, why would KC be more likely than us to make a run in the playoffs? We just steamrolled them AT HOME and have lost like 4 of their last 5. The bengals were just beat down by the Steelers and "technically" only beat us by 7 at home if you disregard the bogus TD on 4th and goal. Honestly the only games i think we played terribly for 4 quarters are the Rams and Cardinals games, and both of those teams have been playing great. I think we have just as good of a shot at making the Super Bowl than anyone in the AFC.

  4. I look at ESPN like a big fraternity and most of the members don't like us or are not interested. It almost like they treat the Colts like they are not relevant and have a losing record. They would rather talk about the Redskins.

    Exactly! Its just so annoying. It bothers me because its nice to be able to listen to what people who arent complete Colts homers have to say about them. Yet it never happens. It just seems like such a slap in the face to be the only one of five teams who didnt get a highlight, like they dont even consider us a playoff team. I just want to be recognized as the great team that we are. This might not be the best example but i think of it as having a son or family member who is fantastic at their sport yet they never get recognized in the paper bc they go to a "small" school. Eventually youre like WTH!

  5. This may seem silly, but i was just watching SportsCenter and they were about to do a segment on the final AFC playoff spot. In the open for it they showed highlights of all the other AFC playoff teams that were already in besides us! And the Chiefs highlight was Charles' TD run against us last week! Man its like they go out of their way to disrespect us or write us off. I know its not a big deal but COME ON MAN!

  6. How is being a solid #2 a bad thing? When I think of solid #1s I think of guys like Marques Colston, Vincent Jackson and Torrey Smith. 

     

    I don't think Rogers can be like those guys, but I do think he has a future in the league and he could be a future 1000 yard receiver.

     

    I'm not being negative at all.

    Torrey Smith was actually the first guy who popped into my head when i started thinking of #1 guys i think Da'Rick could be as good as if not better than if he reaches his potential. You really dont think Rogers could be as good as him?

    Could you give me an example of a specific #2 guy who you think his ceiling would be? I cant really think of any that have his physical tools. Im not gonna go off and proclaim him a perennial pro bowler like some of the others but i really like what ive seen out of him so far.

  7. DHB is a bum. I had high hopes for him this year, which were probably unreasonable, but I never expected him to be this bad. I really wonder how much better our offense would have been all year if he wasnt taking so many snaps away from T.Y. He can't catch a cold. He constantly has to do that stupid jumping thing every time the ball is thrown his way and it drives me nuts. Every time he gets a deep ball it goes right off his hands and he cries for pass interference. It doesnt surprise me at all that the offense finally found its rhythm once he got hurt. Sorry for the rant but ive this has been building up inside me more and more every week.

  8. I think what stings the most is that most of us figured we would be 4-2 going into the Denver game, only the 2 losses were supposed to be SF and SEA. But we beat the them and lost to teams we thought we'd beat. The SF/SEA wins are still huge, but now they kinda mean less because we lost to teams we should've beat. If we knew before the season we would beat SF & SEA we would all expect to be 6-0 before Denver. Thats why I'm disappointed. But hey, cant win them all. Still in a good spot to win the division since HOU is wetting the bed. Hopefully TENN isnt that much of a threat.
