Maybe the team should take a trip to Stanford for some practice. At least send some of the receivers.
-
Pat Robertson has been my least favorite person for the last decade or so, excepting violent criminals and their ilk. This certainly helps to cement his position.
-
As the old sayin goes "those who can, do. Those who cant, teach".
I've always hated that saying.

I doubt the Broncos bring in Tamme + Clark. It's one or the other. Stokley is almost a sure bet. Played with the Broncs, fans love him, and he's played with PM. If Saturday doesn't come back then he'll be there.
I think Jeff's been a little weird about this. It seems like the only place he wants to go is wherever PM is, and he doesn't seem like he wants to come back to the city that's help make his career. A little selfish, but I still love him.
I don't read this as selfish. I see it as he's expressing more loyalty to a friend than to a larger entity; which I find respectable. Manning's been tapping him on the butt for 13 (?) seasons now. That has to count for something.

I'm in a positive position in that I've usually rooted for the Broncos in the past behind the Colts and Bengals. Not much change here.

To Grossman's credit, it is actually possible to be better at mentoring a subject than actually performing just like great performers can be terrible mentors.

After reading all the Peyton to Tennessee threads, i can't help but notice all the displeasure a lot of people show about him going to a division rival.
Every thread, you can read a; it'll tarnish is legacy as a colt, or it's like a slap in the face, and a I'll lose respect for him.
Not to mention the people who think Peyton will go to the Titians out of spite, to get back at the Mr. Irsay.
This is a tough decision for him to make, and I'm sure he'll choose the one that's is best for him, his future in the NFL, and his family.
But to get to the bottom line, the NFL is a business and just like mr. Irsay saw it best for him to cut Peyton. Let's not hold it against Peyton for making a business decision himself and going to the Titians.
If Peyton thinks it's best for him and his family to go to Tennessee, let's respect that, didn't say you had to root for him. I mean after 14 years I think he's earned that
True that. At this point Manning can pick whatever team he wants and I'm not going to hold it against him. However, I'd still rather him not pick AFC South so we don't have a guarantee to play him twice a year.

of course...coming from a Texans fan. Wouldnt you be worried and fear an apocalypse? Andrew Luck is the new Peyton Manning and Tom Brady combined!
If Andrew Luck is 3/4 as good as PM or TB I'll be happy as long as the rest of our team is improved.
-
Just some fun overreaction. But, with Wayne, Garcon, and Gonzo ?s, Collie and White may end up being the 1 and 2 Wrs. (Yikes)
That is a frightening thought. If we lose Wayne and Garcon I don't see any way around getting a wide receiver early on in the draft.
-
It's hard to guess how many wins when we only know about 20 of the players on the team, but I'll go with one. A single win over TN at LOS. If we end up with a decent roster I'll go with, at most, five. TN, JV, BU, CL, and MN.

Trading Freeney within the division guarantees, barring injuries, that he is going to have a shot at our rookie QB against an essentially rookie O-line. Are we confident that Costanzo, or anyone else on our team, can handle Freeney?
On another note, I have no confidence that Mathis can carry the pass rushing duties. Mathis has benefited immensely from Freeney pulling the double-team. Without Freeney, and I don't have stats for this, Mathis has seemed pretty mediocre. Unless we get lucky and land a monster DE, I think keeping Mathis without Freeney might be a waste of Mathis' talent and the Colt's money.

Here is a great article....I thought I was done crying.
This makes me weepy.

Maybe we'll get lucky and the Colts - Patriots will form a new rivalry. Brady can't have too many years left either so it could be Luck vs nameless 6th round pick that Belichick voodoos into greatness. We'll get another 10 years of rivalry. One can hope. It'll be sad if the Colts - Patriots annual becomes just another game.
-
If I played my entire career with one QB who is likely a good friend I'd probably want to follow him as well. I wouldn't blame Reggie at all for wanting out.
-
Here's my take on it (surely to be controversial). I voted for GOAT. The Colts, barring something tragic happening, have many decades ahead of them. Hopefully fruitful, championship filled decades. GOAT has, optimistically, 5 years, but probably only 2 or 3. The Colts, like most rebuilding teams, will probably not be great these next few years. I'm personally more than willing to give up these next few development years in order to see Peyton get another championship or two.
That's rational me. Irrational, angry me wants Peyton to stick it to us just to rub it in a little. However, I'd like it to be a good game. I don't want Luck to get his confidence shattered. It's going to be rough for him.
-
I'm glad to see the Giants are benefiting from some bad Patriots play. They've gotten pretty lucky so far.
-
It's tough to imagine a Colts team without PM and RW.
-
This is all I saw in the title: "Manning released." My heart sank and I think I started to weep. I was quite happy to read the rest of the title.
-
Those refs...they're still trying.
-
Eli has been CLUTCH on third down all day. How many 3rd and 8-12 situations has he got the first down in? Their receivers have been catching the ball.
Way to place the jinx!
-
I won't lie, it would be nice to have a QB that could pick up a few yards with his feet, but still be effective passing.
-
That's the 2nd obvious fumble I've seen taken away from a team in less than 24 hours. They took one away from Denver last night on an early whistle and now an easy overrule is taken away. Glad to see the refs are working at a high level!
-
I might cry if the Pats win it here. I've got a friend that's a huge Pats fan and none of us would ever hear the end of it.
I'm hoping for Texans/Balt. vs SF/NY.

You can't rule the playoffs out this early; we're only one game into the season with a "new" QB. There was a lot of good hidden behind the bad today.
I do agree Collin's had some bad throws, but he could have been worse. I mentioned it in gameday, but I don't understand what the hate on Garcon was today. I saw him drop one pass (the "defenseless receiver" call) and that was good defensive play.
The only untouchable is next year's No.1

If the Lions wanted to give us either Suh or C.J. I would give up the #1 pick.
However, that's not realistic so no, I wouldn't likely give up the pick for any reason.
