Let's muddy it up more. The Baltimore Colts were at one time the Dallas Texans.
So who owns that history? Dallas, Houston Texans or Indianapolis Colts.
The Colts.....and each town has their memories.

I think it has to be 2-2. 2 from each era.
Well, it doesn't HAVE to be, but fans may swing one way or the other based on their experiences.
Both eras stand to be slighted, as there were plenty of great players in both eras.
-
For the most part, those who don't recognize the Baltimore era are:
- Younger, and/or
- From the Indianapolis region, and/or
- Manning fans, and/or
- Luck fans, and/or
Not all, but I'd guess most.
Oh, and regarding the 'Biggest Betrayal' Top 10, yeah, the move from Baltimore should be #1. What Baltimore was going to do to the Colts/Irsay's wasn't right.

It hurts. You got me. Thanks for setting me straight on a deep safety catching an interception on an underthrown pass to a receiver that also had another db covering them. But let's also ignore the other 29 pass attempts where Darnold went 24 of 29 for 280 yards and 2 TDs and had a 113.9 passer rating. We should crown Hooker the king of safteys for an uncontested interception on an errant theow. Let's go ahead and schedule Hookers hall of fame induction this week before the game. Would you like to give the introduction speech since you announced to the world my grave mistake of not blowing down and worshiping his greatness?
EDIT.
Here is my harsh comment if anyone else wants to criticize it.

Oddly, having healthy scratches this Sunday is a step in the right direction.
Though, there's two days to ruin that.

I think people overvalue draft picks most of the time. Some people saying things like - "I wouldn't give a 2nd for Cooper". What are the odds of getting a WR of Coopers caliber in the 2nd round next year? Maybe you feel the GM can evaluate talent very well. So maybe it's a 60% chance. That still leaves 40% to fail. Take the known commodity and let someone else have the risk.
However, it is different with good 1st round picks.
No, someone thinking "I wouldn't give a 2nd for Cooper" thinks he's of a lesser 'caliber' than you think he is.
I wouldn't give a 2nd for him, but you would, and we don't know what Ballard (the expert) thinks. I'll trust whatever Ballard does with this.

I believe it's anticipated that Tyquan Lewis will return after the break.
Not sure about others.

I need to drop 1 player, who do I drop in this 10-team standard league at work?
RBs: David Johnson, Carlos Hyde, James White, Philip Lindsay, Royce Freeman
WRs: Davante Adams, Tyler Boyd, Kenny Golladay, Calvin Ridley, Doug Baldwin, Marquise Goodwin
I am leaning towards the bolded.
To date, I'd have to agree with you.
It's tempting to drop a WR, only because they're a little easier to replace, but all things being equal......Freeman.

Wow, are you getting lucky. It is the same thing as two years ago. Every week the person you are going against gets their lowest score of the week. Lowest PA and 4th lowest PF....lol You're going to win the Championship cause you've got a voodoo doll.
Sounds like he plays good defense.

The drops don't bother me nearly as bad as this catch and release bullcrap we do every game.
I was really trying hard for a fishing joke here, but couldn't think of one that wasn't lame lol
Actually, I thought you did quite well.

How about Luck singing.
I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work till I ache in my bones
At the end (at the end of the day)
I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord somebody (somebody), ooh somebody
(Please) can anybody find me somebody to catch?You're quite the singer.
Who knew?

Hey - I'm 57, 6 feet tall, 20 lbs over weight ( I really like beer), can jog a good route, and can still catch without wearing my glasses.
Do you think I have a shot?!
Not sure, but you can have a shot.

Let me ask this:
Suppose the Colts get Hilton, Mack, Doyle, Hunt, Geathers, Autry and Turbin all back at full health.Suppose the Colts receivers remember how to catch the ball.
Suppose the same 5 guys start on the OL each of the last 8 games.
Suppose the Colts somehow miraculously win their division.
Is that really a team that can't make serious noise in the playoffs?
I don't see why not.
Though all of those scenarios playing out aren't likely, they are possible, and if they do, you're there.
BTW, I think the game just needs to slow down for a lot of these guys.
We're awfully young.

Can you imagine being a family member of his? The constant whining, complaining and criticizing from him would be unbelievable.
Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm for Joseph, but not enamored with Cooper.

So....... Farley got a neck injury transplant from Geathers, or what?
Or did they just change names, or bodies?
Freaky Friday?

I'd expect him to slow down, but I hope not.
-
Running in pads vs. without?
Game may still be too fast for him? It'll slow down.
-
Let's hope for no injuries, and very few, to no, utterances of the word 'disappointing'.
Oh, and let's put up a big fat W.

Neither does Lenny Moore, Mike Curtis, Jim Parker, and John Mackey.
Faded memories, I suppose.
