  1. Apparently Houston has figured out how to win with a third string QB. So 8818, you are saying we can't manage even one single victory, considering the playoff caliber teams we've played such as Carolina, Jax, Kansas City, Browns, etc, etc. This goes far beyond the loss of Peyton, and it should be obvious to anyone who knows the game.

    As to making Peyton a coach, if it's something he wants to do, he'll do well, no matter what.

  2. So, we now know that losing your starting QB doesn't mean you have to lose. Houston won today despite losing their two QB's, down to their rookie third string. The bears so far, are holding their own...We'll see in a couple hours where they stand. You would think that we could at least win one game with a backup, wouldn't you? I mean given the talent of the teams we've played this year, we should have been able to stumble to victory in at least one.

    Some of you who defend Caldwell, I'm sorry, but your arguments don't hold water. The Colt's ineptness goes far beyond losing Peyton, and far beyond shoddy special teams. The team we see today was made over the last few seasons with poor front office moves, and poor coaching. You can argue the point, but the proof is in the pudding. 0-11.

    Pathetic.

  3. Well, with the latest from Polian and Caldwell, I'm ready to be rid of both of them. Caldwell, I was already done with when he took the reigns, but I was willing to give Polian another year or two before calling for his head.....no more. After his comments about Painter, which is downright *ic, along with his continued blantant disregard for his fan base, I'm done. Bye Jimmy and Billie, don't let the door hit ya on the way out.

  4. Unless we keep him as a career backup. He's only 29, so he has more life in him, he could be around for a while and help bring a little credibility, kind of like Sorgi did.

    While he might find a starting job elsewhere, I don't think he's been consistent enough to be considered a starting QB that's going to lead a team to the promised land.

  5. How about we dump both Painter and Orlovsky and pick up Orton? I suppose we should keep one of the hapless duo around for the rest of the season, but beyond that, Orton would probably be okay as a second string or third string (second for Manning, third for Manning/Luck)

    Wishful thinking I know, but it does make you wonder.....

  6. Here's my delima. We have the best QB in the league, but for how long? Hopefully we won't be drafting first more than this year, and we have a shot at another QB who could be as good as Manning. (or almost, as I personally think Manning is one of a kind) Would you pass at the chance of having another Peyton Manning on your roster for the next decade?

    What ever happens, it's going to be interesting to witness.

  7. I had to laugh, as I was watching the game they spent a lot of time focusing on Caldwell. The man hasn't changed a bit in the last two years, Same blank stare, darting eyes, look of a deer in the headlights.....even Chris Collinsworth made the comment back then that Caldwell was the "anointed one" who had no head coaching experience other than Wake Forest, having been hired by Dungy while trying to recomend someone else from his staff at the college.

    That was a classic game where Peyton saved the day, along with a bone headed call by BB. Caldwell was along for the ride.

  8. I dug out one of my DVRs that I hadn't used for a while and found something interesting. I recorded the 11/09 meeting between the PATS and Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium and had forgotten about it until tonight. My god, I can't even relate how great it was to see the Colts playing relatively well again....it was a needed break from the reality that is 0-10.

    I also have the Superbowl on the DVR (versus the Saints) but I don't think I am ready to watch that again, even after 2 years healing.

  9. I would fire the coaching staff and replace them with FatHead posters of Jim Harbaugh. I'd bench Painter, and tape Reggie's mouth shut for suggesting the he was worthy of a chance. I'd force Lacey to community service. Beyond that, I need time to evaluate my next moves......

  10. Believe me when I say this Caldwell will have these guys ready. He knows this is a must win for the team because nobody wants to be 0-16. Cam Newton is solid but our defense will step it up and I see us getting at least 17 on the board so I think we will win 17-13. If they dont win this game it just shows that Polian is forcing Caldwell to lose because we all know Caldwell is a very good coach.

    I'm speechless.....Whether this is denial or acute blindness? (maybe sarcasim?)

  11. We do know that Peyton runs the practice...one could only assume that Caldwell is off chasing butterflies or somthing similar.

    Okay, maybe not chasing butterflies, he's not fit enough...how about blowing the fuzz off the dandilions?
