[Some perspective on week 1 Vs the Chargers]

Fantastic post Jared. My own disagreement with you is the line I bolded. Did Adam's misses hurt us on the scoreboard or make the hole to dig out of deeper than we would have preferred? Yes. However, we can't lay this loss entirely at V's feet. He's not the terminator or an unstoppable cyborg for crying out loud. He's been so clutch for so long that our expectations are out of whack.  It's week 1; these misses don't give me pause at all. Hades, most teams misfire the first week since most of the veterans have not played a full game yet. Adam has earned a lot of cache in this league for the Pats & INDY. He'll be fine. Everybody's rusty even the refs. 

 

Yep, our defense was making Rivers slide up in the pocket & Hooker did take away 6 points from the powder blue LA Bolts late in the game to keep us alive, Mack looked solid on the ground, & TY has a nose for the end zone just like always, even Ebron was on fire until the refs screwed us over with a lame call. 

 

Jacoby played well better than I anticipated he would. Like you said so eloquently, he makes good decisions with the ball. Uh huh. INDY is definitely no dumpster fire indeed. 

 

I will give you a like anyway since I agree with 95% of what you wrote. I'm not really that upset with you Jared. I just can't condemn Adam. The dude is money. He just had a hiccup today that's all. He will work his tail off this week to redeem himself & get his mojo back buddy. 

 

I have to agree with all of this. As much as we needed the points from Vinatieri, those weren't the only ones that could have changed the game. No one seems to remember the unnecessary roughness on Autry on their first touchdown drive. The defense held them to a field goal and we gifted them a second chance for a touchdown. That is four points that would have gave us the win even with Adam's misses.

I agree that it does look a lot better. The only problem I see is that the forum doesn't load correctly in the Tapatalk app for Android.

I heard from a reliable source that his wife wouldn't let him grow a beard. Thus he had to find employment elsewhere.

he went to the doctor on Wednesday?

It seems as though he used Mr. Irsay's plane. The last activity was a flight to Van Nuys, about 30 minutes from the doctor. The flight tracker for the plane has since been blocked.

Wonder how Manning will take it? Probably speed up his process to ask for a trade as he will have to adapt to new playbook

Doesn't seem that Mathis is too pleased about it.
