Come on guys, let the coaches dog the refs. Keep your heads in the games.
-
I'm glad to get off the field on 3rd down, but the defense continues to almost make plays. If this team is going to have a chance of having a respectable season without Manning, the defense needs to start actually making those plays. This defense almost makes way too many plays. Somebody earlier used the word "opportunistic", and that is the exact same word that I had in my head. This defense can't shut down an opposing offense. They're just not good enough for that. When they get the opportunity to make game-changing plays, they need to take advantage of those opportunities. Thus far, they have not done that.

How many Colts does it take to tackle a WR?
It depends. Is McAfee on the field?
-
I am wondering why we have not tried to work some play action in. I know its been a long time since we had an effective running game, but it would be the perfect time to throw in some play action.
Yeah, it seemed like the perfect time. You're running the ball effectively, picking up large chunks of yardage every time. They are likely going to start stacking the box....especially as you get close to the 20. Seems like a perfect time for a fake handoff out of a 2-TE set to draw the defense inside and then get the receivers open downfield.
-
I understand we want to run the ball, but it wouldn't hurt to throw the ball deep a couple of times. It'll keep the defense on their toes and if we complete the deep throws, they'll back up and open up space for the running game
Did you ever imagine six months ago that you would be saying this as a Colts fan?
-
My soul for a TD. Why cant we score 7?
Didn't you predict this?
-
After three nice runs like that, a little play action would be nice.
-
That 10 second run off is not right, it's the officials that stop the play, not anything the Colts or Browns did.
I was just saying the same thing. Automatic 10-second run off just because the refs made the wrong call?
-
Did he just say "genuflected?"
-
Now, can Kerry run the 2-minute drill and hit Garcon?
Got a little ahead of yourself.
-
Booing Collins already? Come on
Seriously, come on guys. This team needs the crowd behind them this year.
-
He should kick it out through the end zone then.
How is that?
-
And of course, I dropped Vinny off my fantasy this week
Pound a little harder. It will go numb eventually.
-
But it's certainly a reason to get points when you can get them.
Absolutely.
-
Or because this is still a team that is struggling on offense and you have to take points when you get them.
That's not a reason not to try play action on 3rd and 1.
-
I am really sick of Pat McAfee making tackles......not that I don't want him to make the tackles, but he shouldn't have to.
-
Nice run/pass mix so far.
-
So why did they not practice if it is not injury related? (Not expecting you to have an answer to that question.)

Why are Freeney and Wayne listed as "Probable" with the injury listed as "Not injury related." If it is not injury related, why would there be any question whether or not they would play?
-
They may be in for a rude awakening come Sunday. The Colts defense may be the only defense in the league that this would actually work against. Maybe not the best barometer by which to gauge a new scheme.
-
Am I the only one that has had a pat down before every game since 9/11?
No, you're not the only one. I've been to four games at four different stadiums since 2007 and been patted down at every one. Heck, I was patted down three times in six hours in Philadelphia. Once before going in to see the Liberty Bell, once before going into Independance Hall, and once going into the stadium for the Colts/Eagles game. It is not invasive at all. I don't see why such a big deal is being made of it all of a sudden. Seems like much ado about nothing.
-
So, for this week, the question is, Does Joe Addai:
Rush for over/under 900 yards
and
Does Joe get over/under 7 touchdowns.
I think he gets to 930 yards, and 6 touchdowns. What do you guys think?
I'm gonna go with under. The Browns defense isn't that bad.
-
Made my heart skip two beats. No fair picking on us gulliable people.
Which is why this should be in NFL General. Not Colts related. (hint, hint)
-
You saw the on-side kick coming? Really? Yeah...no you didn't. That kick could easily go down as one of the gutsiest calls in a SB in the past 15-20 years. No reasonable person could fault the coaches or players for getting caught off-guard by that on-side kick.
If Hank Baskett holds onto a ball that hits him square in the chest, it goes down as one of the stupidest calls in SB history. That's how fine the line is. The players should be prepared for an onside kick on every kickoff. That is the whole reason that a few players play 10-15 yards off the 30 on every kickoff.....just in case there is an onside kick. Being taken by surprise is not an excuse here.

Okay, the defense has come up with two consecutive stops. Time to put some points on the board, offense.
