I agree. I think a lot of players use PEDs. I just think Watt abuses them as evidenced by his body continually breaking down. He was an average athlete coming out of high school who has gone on to be regarded as one of the freak athletes in NFL history. Hmmmm. I just have my opinion. I have lifted weight and trained for the last 40 years.
Lol, he also has 2 brothers in the NFL. Sometimes genetics just win. Sorry you didn't hit the genetic lottery, but there's zero evidence to suggest JJ is abusing PEDs. Your 40 years of pumping iron are irrelevant to that. Kudos to your dedication, though.

Is it just me, or has Rock Ya-Sin been pretty bad all season? He's been a decent tackler, but anytime I notice him, it's because he's getting burned by a receiver or flagged for a penalty
I've only really noticed him because he's been giving up completions while being right in his man's face in good position. Then today happened. Woof.

The fan base is not soft but you have to call crap fest a crap fest.
Looking around the forum today (and after any loss, really) I have to disagree. There are a lot of soft fans around these parts. So many fickle Colts fans. A quick glimpse around the board and you can see calls to cut Ebron, cut Cain, cut Quincy, sit Jacoby, Ballard=Grigson, etc. None of those were being discussed (except by the CK cult) before today's game. It takes one bad game for pitchforks to come out and entire histories to be erased. Soft. Pathetic. Embarrassing. Dumb. I understand not being happy about the play today... But some of the children posting in here is ridiculous.

Glad we have the division win against Tennessee, but having both our losses in conference is not ideal. Next week's KC matchup likely won't do is any favors there. Should be interesting, though!

I’d trade our 2nd rounder for him potentially if they feel like he and Hooker would make a stud Safety duo. Unless they feel very comfortable with Geathers and Willis.
Part of the problem Minkah has with the Dolphins is that they're using him as a SS. I don't think we'd want to move Malik into the box, and we have Kenny manning the slot. Not sure where Minkah would fit in, starter-wise, on our team.
Though if I remember correctly, during his draft process people RAVED about his character and leadership, so that would definitely fit into the locker room.
I don't see us making a move. Especially if Miami is trying to ask for a 1st rounder.

I'll be there! Coming in with my wife and toddler from Chicago area and meeting one of my buddies and his girlfriend who are coming up from Kentucky. He's a Falcons fan and our birthdays are the 15th and 16th this month, so it's kind of a birthday gift for each of us. Section 451 Row 1.
Ready to celebrate my son's first game with a W!

No thanks. Long injury history, not super efficient, and paying draft picks and a top 3 salary for a RB that has struggled to maintain 4.0ypc doesn't really entice me. Wouldn't mind taking a RB on day 2 in next year's draft, unless Mack just balls out. But no way I'm paying what it will take for Gordon.

Seems like our bad Luck situation may have (rightfully) scared the Texans a bit. Clearly their draft picks on the line aren't looking up to the challenge. If I'm a Texans fan I'm livid. Get next to nothing back for Clowney but give up the farm for Tunsil/Stills? To think this all could have been avoided if they showed just a LITTLE urgency for Andre Dillard instead of letting Philly trade up in front of them.
They may take the division this year. They may not. But their going to be looking rough in a year or 2. Love it.

Vontae couldn't make it through the game.. poor Luck was undercut by someone leaking information.
Right. It's not hard to understand. Vontae got upset halfway through a game and said screw it. Luck had plans to announce at a press conference the next day, but some moroon leaked the info to Schefter to hang Luck out to dry. If he gets to announce it, rather than it being leaked, the whole thing looks 100x better. (Though the timing is still just awful)

The players don't "don't give their body up for fans" they give their body up for the money. Please stop acting like Luck was Jesus Christ who was out there dying for our sins lol. His sudden decision to retire affected his team mates and the entire Colts organization. Can't imagine any Colts fan being happy the news that Luck retired. Those fans don't know Luck on a personal level and he is oblivious to most Colts fans existence. Those weren't personal boos, they were boos from upset passionate Colts fans. His untimely retirement sucks. Everyone is entitled to their feelings.
When did I say he did it for the fans? Of course they do it for the money. But the fact that somebody else pays them millions of dollars does NOT mean he owes the fans anything. Nobody compared him to Jesus Christ... ever.
Again, I completely understand the boos. The situation and not having any time to process it would understandably leave many angry at the time Luck was coming off the field. But days later, after hearing his reasons and remembering the time he played for our team, if you're still upset then it's a you problem. Not a Luck problem.

Just now, csmopar said:
it has nothing to do with entitlement. Luck himself is to blame here, not for retiring, I fully understand and am ok with those reasons. He deserves it. HOWEVER, he blatantly played fans over the last month and toyed with them. That is and was a huge mistake on his part. Had he not done all that and simply retired at a regular press conference, there'd been no boos, far less anger and even more support.
That's all based on nothing though.
At the press conference he said he knew a week and a half prior. He went out and warmed up and admitted he thought that was probably the last time he'd throw at LOS. You're going to cry about a guy wanting to get one last session in? Why? Because he didn't tell you it was his final time? Weak sauce.
I don't fault the fans for the boos. There wasn't enough time to work through what they just saw and many were angry, understandably. But now, days later, people still throwing tantrums believing Luck somehow wronged them is asinine and childish. Grow up, people.

I'm sorry but injuries are part of NFL football and Andrew doesn't deserve a medal for playing and getting hurt. There are literally 1000's of players that have dealt with injuries, more severe injuries and pain - Andrew is not unique in that aspect. Hes unique because he CHOSE to quit playing before injuries or Father Time made him quit and some fans take exception to that. That has nothing to do with their commitment to this team or their Colts fandom in general.
It has to do with their false sense of entitlement. Spoiled children who are mad that they didn't get things their way and feel that players somehow OWE them their well being because they bought a jersey.
It has to due with their human decency and their character as a person.... or lack thereof.
Be upset at the situation. Be upset at the timing. Don't be upset at the guy who played and gave his body up until he felt like he couldn't anymore. The fact that other players have been injured before, or worse, is irrelevant.

If JB gets ten wins and leads us to the playoffs though they aren’t going to suddenly bench him as a backup again or trade him. It will be Luck that will be the odd man out. How would they trust him he wouldn’t quit again if he got a injury. JB is your years younger and if he looks like your next franchise QB he will be.
Unless Jacoby wins us the Super Bowl this year, if Luck for some odd reason decided to come back next year, he would ABSOLUTELY be back as the starter. Ballard and Irsay would want some long term assurances before taking him back, of course, but if they reached a point where he wanted back there's no way they deny him. He's still the better QB, by far.

I don't know man, I am hoping Trevor Lawrence says he will enter the draft next year, and if not the colts hold off until the following year when he does. I think Sunshine will be the next big QB to come out of the draft.
Pretty sure he can't. He's not eligible until the 2021 draft. Next year is Herbert, Tua, and Fromm as the frontrunners for first round QBs.
Could you imagine if we went from Peyton to Luck to Lawrence though, with only 2-3 years of QB purgatory between them all? That would be insane.
-
With Ballard's current drafting success, I don't see us in a position to get Lawrence in 2 years. Plus that's a long way out. I don't think anyone was ready to be back looking for a QB for another 5 years at least... but it does bring its own excitement to the offseason.

First round star RBs definitely get a raw deal here. Mostly due to the nature and realities of olaying the position. 4 years plus a 5th year option. Possible franchise tags. That's up to 7 years of team control. By that time the RB is now 30 or dang close to it. Can't be giving massive contracts to 30 year old RBs, especially after they've likely been ran into the ground.
Granted, 5 years of first round paychecks and 2 franchise tags is a hefty sum of money... but no more than any other player selected in the same draft slot who might not have as hard of a time getting the security of a 2nd contract due to the position they play.
Making exceptions for RBs in the rookie wage scale isn't the answer. Maybe making the rookie contracts 3 years plus a 4th option for first rounders? Good luck getting the owners to sign off on that, though.

I do have Direct TV, I no longer have CBS, most of my favorite shows are on CBS. I was waiting till the end of July to see if they were going to correct situation. I am now shopping for a service to supply what I want. they are not bashful in charging me. But they are close to not getting anymore of my money. I am already paying extra for the NFL network. So yes I am shopping
I'll be getting an HD indoor antenna if this isn't resolved soon. One time cost but the OTA channels like CBS/FOX/ABC/PBS are free, provided you live close enough to the broadcast tower. The antennas have pretty wide ranges. CBS is definitely my favorite local station. I also enjoy CBSSPORTS which got pulled as well. I'm so ready to pull the plug and cancel my DTV. Unfortunately, they've got me by the shorthairs with their exclusive Sunday Ticket rights, since my wife and I are fans of different teams (neither of which are the local team). The second there's an alternative streaming option, the cord is getting cut. I've priced it out and I can get basically every channel that I actually watch, plus a couple extra subscribtions (Hulu, ESPN+, etc) for less than half of what I'm paying now. I imagine that's why DTV pays the NFL the $1.5B per year. They know they'll lose A TON of customers if they can't be the only option for out of market fans. Great for the NFL.... less so for its fans.

My son with his gloves from E.J. Speed.
That's a happy looking kid, right there! He'll remember that forever! Glad you guys had a good time!
I saw your other post where you talked about how your son came to you through adoption. That's awesome! We adopted our son as well. We were front row on the bleachers over on Field 2 in front of where Darius Leonard was warming up and getting us all hyped. If you were on that side of the field too, I'm sure you saw my son (African-American toddler in a Hilton jersey) running all over the place and my wife (the only person I know who would show up to Colts training camp in a Patriots shirt and hat, lol). Because little man was so rowdy we decided to stay over by Field 2 even though majority of the action was on Field 1. Thought it would be better for all involved, haha. We still had a great time!
