    watson was celebrating down by 3 touchdowns after getting a 3 yard run he is to young he will grow up

    He reminds me of Cam Newton in this regard. That man needs a little more maturity as well.

    On nfl radio they are saying how bad this is. We should wait to celebrate until we actually win a SB.

     

    Look at coach dancing. Lol

     

     

    Oh, you mean how Watson celebrated when he ran for a first down in the 4th quarter down by 2 touchdowns? Take peek at the scoreboard ya clown.

    KC has also lost games this year by 3 points, 1 point, and 7 points. Only home lost to the chargers by 1 point. 

    That's ok. they can lose next week by 1. I won't mind.

     

  4. Thanks for the topic. I've only seen video of this game. I was 4 in 1958. I don't know if I've ever shared how I became a Colts fan but I'll follow the lead of others in this thread who are sharing their experiences. 

     

    I had an older brother who I always looked up to. (idolized actually) He played semi pro football in the mid 60's in New Hampshire for a team called the Nashua Colts. They had identical uniforms as the Baltimore Colts with the horseshoe on the helmet & all. I thought my brother was a celebrity & the greatest thing since sliced bread. I couldn't help but be a Colts fan solely based on the fact that in my eyes, my brother was a Colt. Well, after the 1965 season I had the opportunity to attend his team's end of the year banquet. The guest speaker that year was none other than Johnny U. himself. This was the year that injuries forced the Colts to call on RB Tom Matte to play QB for the final few games of the season. 

     

    Now if you can imagine an 11 year old boy, already a fan because of his older brother, getting to meet Johnny Unitas. That was me in 1965. I was able to see the real Colts a few times at Memorial Stadium with my dad & my brother in years to follow. My brother passed away almost 15 years ago & I miss him terribly. My family in NH still has his Colts helmet from back then. Every time I visit I go in the basement & hold it & look at it like it's the Holy Grail. I would love to have that helmet but I can't bring myself to ask them for it. He has 2 sons who I'm sure hold it in high regard as well.

     

    I love our Colts & I am one who will follow them where ever they go. 

     

    Btw, I was 15 when Super Bowl III happened. I was devastated. Thank God for rookie kicker Jim O'Brien in Super Bowl V.

    Prior to the Titans game all I saw was Kelly is out and I was busy around the kitchen with the game on and when I sat down to watch the game he was playing.

    You saw Kelly playing in the Titans game this past Sunday night?

  6. Nice summery. I remember that season pretty well. I was at the first Jets game.  (it was at Shea Stadium) That was the start of our season long winning streak after losing 4 in a row. Btw, The Colts didn't shut out the Bears in week one. The Bears got a late garbage TD. The final score was 35-7 I believe. 

     

    I had been a Colts fan for 10 years already by 75. I had gone to a couple games with my Father & Brother at Memorial Stadium in the past. That place was a bit run down but I remember it always rockin with Colt fans. C-O-L-T-S COLTS!!!

     

    The similarities are there. I'm rooting for a little different final outcome.

    The best part of the video is his reaction and response when chapel says 40 is impossible.

    If anybody can do it it's Leonard. I just hope his quest for 40 tackles doesn't get him off his game & force him to over pursue & take himself out of plays he would normally be in the middle of.

    Would love to see him end the season with the most tackles by a substantial margin.
