[AFC South and AFC Playoff picture/ Remaining Schedules (MERGE) Updated OP + on page 61 - post week 17. AFC Clinching Scenarios page 61]

I’ll be hoarse after being loud at “The Benz” tomorrow. I’ll be such a happy camper on the drive home if they win.

Looking forward to seeing Heinicke punished tomorrow. 💪

[Will Levis to start]

Curious, Why would you take Levis over Richardson ?

 

[The Colts and star RB Jonathan Taylor have agreed to terms on a 3-year contract extension]

I’m so happy this got done. 
We’ll see if everyone wins now, especially those of us loyal fans.

We know JT and the Colts won.

I live in the ATL area now and hope the Christmas Eve game in the Benz will be 1 to remember.

We’ll have 4 generations there wearing Colts jerseys.

Freeney SB jersey, Nelson, Taylor, & Richardson jerseys.

Shore up the cb position and that’ll be sweeter than a Georgia Peach 🍑 

 

 

[Should we go RB in the 4th ??]

Time to get some help in the trenches and RB. In Ballard I trust.

[How about this trade?]

I'd love it, but don't think it is enough. I heard earlier today OBJ wants to be the highest paid WR in the league.

[Any chance on Dwayne Allen coming back?]

Another Grigson failure. I sure hope not.

[Dion Jordan cut by Dolphins]

I don't know if he can stay clean. 3 PED violations.

 

2016 season:
Jordan was conditionally reinstated by the NFL on July 29, 2016, ending what was a 15-month suspension. The conditions stipulated in the reinstatement include Jordan able to return to the team for training camp, establishment of treatment resources for Jordan in Miami prior to his being allowed to play in any preseason games, a meeting with the NFL prior to being allowed to play in Week 1 of the regular season, and an in-season meeting with the NFL prior to a full reinstatement.

Jordan was cut by the Dolphins on March 31, 2017 after failing a physical.

[Who's left that you want?]

Poe & Hightower

[Colts have a new punter - Jeff Locke, former Vikings P (Merge)]

His stats are pretty good & he can kickoff also.

I'm sure other punters will be brought in

 

Agreed, Ballard can do better.

[Pats trade for Dwayne Allen [Merge]]

Anxious to see who Ballard picks up for another tight end. I feel good about getting a 4th rounder and unloading Allen's contract. 

[Pats trade for Dwayne Allen [Merge]]

I hope we get at least a 3rd rounder. Anything more is icing on the cake. I'm afraid Belichick might have fleeced us. I hope Ballard showed strength and didn't melt under the pressure.

[Eric Berry and Dontari Poe]

The Colts may possibly get one of these two, which would you prefer?

 I'd love to see Poe dominate up front

[Colts Hire Chris Ballard As General Manager]

Here is to hoping this gets the team on the right track back to the Super Bowl.

["Edge" snub]

After being a finalist last year, I thought James was an almost sure bet to enter the Hall of Fame this year. He deserves a bust in Canton.

[The Colts and Eagles will flip a coin for the 14th pick in the draft.]

10 minutes ago, NorthernBlue said:

wait but why? Philadelphia is 7-9, so shouldn't they get the higher pick regardless?

 

Someone help me out, what am I missing here?

I think it is because the Eagles pick is from the Vikings and the Vikes were 8-8 like us.

[Robert Mathis: Officially Retiring (merge)]

What a treat it was when Freeney and him played together and the career 98 had afterward. Godspeed Robert !!!

[Tyler Lockett]

I was really bummed to see Carr go out. I'm not a Raiders fan, but thought the Raiders could do something big in the playoffs this year.

I picked us to go 10-6 at the start of the year and that could've easily been achieved had we beat Jacks in London and Houston once.

And the Detroit loss was a joke.

[Pagano deserves respect (Merge)]

Pagano did a fine job tonight. I thought going for it on the 4th downs was the right calls considering the steelers offense definately have an upper hand on our defense.  However,  I was not a fan of the offensive play calling at all. It was so obvious every time they called a running play. Right up the gut for a yard or 2. I called it every time and I'm just a common fan. Why do we NEVER run outside the tackles? It sure didn't help our receivers couldn't catch a cold today,  they dropped WAY to many passes. I felt bad for Tolzein,  our line was garbage as well,  he got hit on about every pass attempt. Talent is an obvious issue. 

 I agree. They ran Turbin outside 1 time and he gained like 7 yards when it was still a game.

[Post Game: Scott Tolzien (Merge)]

6 minutes ago, RollerColt said:

Scott Tolzien. I would like to formally apologize to you. I believed we would lose this game due to Andrew being out, but I was wrong. 

 

We lost because as a team, we literally dropped the ball.

 

Scott, you put your heart out there and took hit after hit and still managed to push the ball downfield. This loss was not on you. You were the better player on the Colts side, besides Pat. Hats off to you for going out there and at least giving our team a chance. 

 

Continue to surprise people, Mr. Tolzien. I'll be eating crow for leftovers tomorrow while licking my wounds from witnessing another loss at the hands of my immortal enemies the Steelers. 

 

Sincerely, 

 

Eric

 Same thing here. I was totally wrong to not give Tolzien a chance. He was a total surprise to me how well he handled the offense.

[How hard is it to understand this?]

Tolzien was not the problem tonight.

 

[Good game Colts fans]

Parry had a great game. Best of his short career. DBs played well also. Finally a well played 60 minute game. 

[Denver (+1.5) at Oakland (11-6-16)]

They love the Raiders in Vegas (whoops, did I say that?)

 

Having an NFL team in Vegas should be very interesting. What happens in Vegas won't stay in Vegas.

[PFF scores week 5]

Anthony Castonzo graded out at 84.4 as the best LT last week. I guess he wasn't the weak link. Hilton had 10 catches for 171 yards and a TD & didn't get a top 2 WR position. ??????
