    Did anyone notice Levis's jersey after the game?  Damn that boy took a beating, and seemed like he could take a hit.  He looked good on some throws, and questionable on on others.  On the other hand, his game ending interception was notable as well.


    I will ask again. What throws did he look questionable on?

  2. I have said this before, I will say it again. I didn’t like Richardson before the draft and would have traded down and seen if a qb fell to draft. Passing and reading defenses are much more important than a running qb, that’s why I wouldn’t have drafted him. In a small nfl sample size, levis is much more of the type of qb that I think will be successful. I hope Richardson turns out to be the best qb in the nfl, but I haven’t seen those qualities yet.

    Name checks out. You are more of a Huskers fan than a Colts fan.

     

    Both equal and probably longer than you have been alive.


    so I guess anyone that doesn’t like every colt player, coach, or gm isn’t really a colts fan.  That would probably make every person here not a colts fan first.

    he did, and he made some throws that a lot of veteran qb’s couldn’t make as he was being hit. He made one throw sidearm to just avoid watt’s hand. He had two plays to throw a touchdown in the last 20 seconds. You have to take a chance with Pitt knowing he has to throw into the end zone from 25 yards away, he did and threw an int. We absolutely saw the game differently.

     

    what throws was he questionable on? I didn’t see any.

     

  5. Just watched the 2nd half of the tenn game. After watching the first half yesterday a said I would absolutely trade Richardson for Levi’s, now I would trade Richardson and a first round pick for him! And I am pretty sure tenn wouldn’t make that trade. He made some incredible throws under heavy pressure. He impressed the heck out of me!! Richardson is a risk, could be good or could be a bust, I just have doubts he will ever be that polished passer. I hope I am wrong!

    I think the problem that folks saw was that you did not seem to give Levis credit for playing well. The numbers did not show how well he played. That is why I don't like stats. They do not accurately show how someone played.


    People put too much into stats and pff! If a lb leads the team in tackles, but 90% are 5-10 yards down field, that’s not a good lb.

  7. Many here say the colts gm hasn’t gotten a rush de in the draft as a big deal. They are probably as hard to get as a top qb. Look how many teams have missed on those picks in the first round. No pick is a guaranteed top player and some positions are a much greater risk than others. All gm’s have hits and misses, the ones that get lucky and get those few hall of fame players are said to be top gm’s when it could be just luck. How many gm’s have built multiple teams into winners? It’s a VERY short list!

     

    and the colts fans were spoiled to have one of them! And people here still complained about him.

    For any QB that we get, in order for me to think they may be the next Manning or Luck, they have to have at least 2 very good to great years. Some people for some reason want to put a QB in the Hall of Fame when they have had 1 great game. Look at Brock Purdy now, the last 3 weeks he has played poorly. First 10 starts he had, some people were saying he was Joe Montana Homer Simpson Laughing GIF by FOX TV


    and you are gushing over Richardson, who hasn’t really done anything as a colt for one game.

    Levis was 18/28 I think I read.  Aside from those 4 TD passes, he had a typical meh rookie first day passing, IMO. 

     


    that doesn’t make any sense! It’s like saying a qb had a mah day aside from the 4 interceptions he threw. Rd passes and interceptions are the biggest part of how a qb does!

    When has anyone ever suggested otherwise?


    most here are in love with Richardson, I don’t think it’s because of his passing and reading defenses abilities. I don’t think he would have been a first round pick on those attributes.

    If JT got that 3rd and short carry where Moss went for 41 yards, it's probably a TD. And then we avoid Minshew's terrible INT.


    that’s assuming a lot! You don’t know he would have picked the same running rout. Running plays are designed to go a set way, but it’s all on the rb to pick where he thinks the hole is or will be. Some are great at it, some aren’t. That’s the difference between top and average backs.

  12. I haven’t been on the get a wr bandwagon like a lot here. The ones the colts have are fine and would be a lot better with a better qb. I wouldn’t use any top picks on offense, the top 4 rounds at least should be defense. Pass rusher, lb, and a big dt would be my priorities. Secondary should be ok when healthy. I’m probably in the minority here about not being sold on the colts lb’s for a long time.

    zaire leads the league in tackles for gains!!


    I have been saying this for years about colts lb’s that this board have said we’re so good and the colts have given big contracts too. My opinion was not very popular here at the time!! They make a lot of tackles, but they are 4+ yards down field. That’s not a top linebacker!

  14. People are complaining about the qb play, but you can’t expect a starting, let alone a back up qb, to score 30+ points a game to get wins. The defense has been awful! There have been injuries/suspension, but all teams have them. Playing zone on short yardage is too easy to find a quick open spot. Having week cb and not giving help or blitzing to make the qb uneasy are coaching issues. I would like to see more screen passes to our best weapons!

    I saw an interesting stat about the Stache

     

    He’s currently tied for 10th overall in QBR

    And he’s beating notable QBs like:

    Ryan Tannehill

    Trevor Lawrence

    CJ Stroud

    Kirk Cousins

    Matt Stafford

    Joe Burrow

    And several others…


    im one of the few people here that has thought from the start of the season he is doing a adequate job. He makes mistakes, all qb’s do. The last game, a top defensive player made several great plays. That’s not on him, that’s what top players do. I wasn’t expecting the colts to play this well. Being in the playoff race is making this a enjoyable season and gm is a big reason why.
