  1. I’ve said it many times but AR reminds me of a faster version of Steve McNair. This video shows how strong he is. The defenders just bounce off of him like a grown man playing football with little kids. I think next year will be a learning year but year 3 he will set the nfl on fire.
  2. Exactly what I was thinking. Cut those guys immediately. You could grab a name out of a hat full of nfl players, and the one person who’s name you grabbed will most likely play way better than these scrubs.
  3. I agree. I’ve said it many times. I don’t think he’s terrible I just think he’s a mediocre starting qb that was supposed to be the next luck, manning or elway. He will be lucky to have a career as good as Ben rothlesburger when it’s all said and done.
  4. What do you think the reasons are that mpj has so few yards per catch? Seems to me it’s mostly play design. Isn’t he a free agent? Man if we don’t sign him and have to rely on a rookie wr to be our #1, we may be in trouble real bad. Heck I wouldn’t mind signing mpj and drafting down to get the best TE in the draft or another stud WR. Who knows maybe Ar will turn pierce into the next randy moss because he can actually throw the ball far unlike minshew. Sucky game but good season.
  5. The play at end was a little cutesy for my liking but the players should have completed it. They are paid more than doctors for goodness sake and can’t make a simple pitch and catch. Also, I got to say, we better pay Pittman whatever he wants to stay because if we lose him we are looking at a 5 win team. I would love for us to get a game changing TE, or ball hawk safety. We def need to fix our coverages.
  6. I totally agree. It seems like a few games ago the scouting book on colts defense came out and teams are throwing alot of screens on 3rd and long and we seem to have a very very very hard time stopping it. We just don’t have an answer. Nothing is worse than seeing our little “fast” guys getting mauled and Bouncing off the other teams offensive linemen lol. I dunno why tackling is so bad, I mean you have been doing this since you were 8yr old and you are in the nfl. They should basically be like robots and automatic out there for as much time and effort, not to mention the money they get paid. Oh and On the flip slide if we run it we might get two to three yards max lol. Really frustrating but hey over all it’s been a good season.
  7. This year has been crazy. If we would have won the browns game ( we did just not officially) we would be in the top 3 if I’m not mistaken and would have beaten the number one team in the ravens. As bad as we have looked in some of our losses we aren’t as far away as some people think. If Richardson can be a top 10 Qb and we have one more good draft this team can seriously do some damage next year.
  8. Is it just me or is Lawrence massively overrated? Since he’s been in the nfl I’ve never seen what others have seen in him. If you gave me the choice of stroud or him I would take stroud everytime.
  9. My only complaint with Shane is that he’s the same age as me and it makes me feel old. Growing up I thought coaches were all old geezers. Now I’m the same age as these old geezers!!!
  10. Overall a crazy game but a win is a win. Minshew drives me nuts. He can make most of the throws you need to win but he has got to be the most anxious qb I’ve ever seen in my life. Maybe they need to give him some Valium before the game to calm him down lol. If he has anyone even remotely near him it’s like the computer in his brain starts malfunctioning and everything misfires. Last week he even turned around and started running the wrong way lol. Another thing about him that drives me nuts is how he avoids any contact at all cost. Let’s say it’s 3rd down and 3 and no one is open and he sees some daylight. He will run and see a guy 5 yards ahead and instead of getting the first down and then sliding he will slide down 2 yards away from the first down or throw the ball away or worse and try and force a throw to a covered wr. He did it once in this game. He could have gotten a first down and instead slid way behind the marker. I’m all for being careful ( especially with all the injuries to qb us colts fans have had to go through with luck and AR) but sometimes you gotta take a hit to get those important first downs. Btw I’m grateful for minshew. As a backup things could be much worse. I just wish he could fix his flaws.
  11. The reason I was asking how this team would do with luck or manning as qb was to see where this roster stands compared to the ones we had with manning and luck. I think we def have more talent than the first year or so with luck.
  12. Hahaha put luck at te, Richardson at rb on some plays and Peyton at qb. The trick plays would make us unbeatable.
  13. I was thinking of our current roster makeup and how it compares to past colts teams. I think our biggest problem is qb play. A great qb can make a mediocre team really good really fast. So it got me thinking. Where would this team be if we had manning , luck, and Richardson as qb instead of minshew? I know we would have won the Cleveland game because I feel we won it anyways just not officially lol. So as of now we are 6-5. With Richardson I feel we would be 7-4. I think overall he would improve us but some games we won he might have lost for us just making rookie mistakes. With luck as qb I would say right now we would be 8-3. If we had manning I think 9-2 or 10-1 is not out of the question at all. That’s how good he was. So with that being said, I truly don’t think this roster is as far away as many think. I think we are a good qb away from truly being a team that other teams fear aka KC or PHilly. What do you guys think our record would be if we had one of those 3 as qb??
  14. That mic d up video was awesome. I couldn’t tell if that was steichen or a coked up beaver cleaver on the sidelines with all the gollys and jeez comments lol. He sounds so wholesome yet still fires you up to wanna run through a brick wall when you hear him. He’s had his bad moments but his play designs and play calling have been a very very pleasant change. I think he’s going to be the best coach we have had since dungy.
  15. I’m not sure I would call anyone on our offense a weapon lol. Maybe downs in a year or so. Edit: Btw that was a reply to dobbinblitz.
  16. Omg how did I forget about matty h!! I would agree it’s def those two at the top.
  17. With minshew being our starter right now it got me thinking. Where would he rank amongst the backups we have had since the manning days. Out of these and if I forget any please feel free to add them. We got minshew, brissett, Jim sorgi, Sam ehlinger, Curtis painter (yuck) that’s all I can think of off the top of my head. Who would you say are the top 3 if you had to have one fill in for a season and not to tank but to win games lol.
  18. The way I look at it, sure it sucks that AR is out but if you remember….. right after the draft,half of the people on here thought we would be better off if Richardson sat on the Bench for most of the year until he was “ready” and let minshew be the starter. So basically we are where many people on here thought we would be anyways. Doesn’t make the hurt any better but at least we know AR can play. The question is can he stay healthy??
  19. I’m glad he’s back but with him missing a quarter of the season I’m still concerned about his play this year. If you look at his previous years it has always taken him 4-5 games to get going. I remember his first season people wanted him cut because his “ vision” was terrible. Then around the 4th game something clicked and he became the player we all love. Same for the year after that minus the calls for him to be cut. It took him a few games to start producing. Last year I’m not going to count because of obvious reasons but if history is a predictor it’s going to take him awhile to start playing well.
  20. Man with all this worry about qb injuries and the whole luck saga, can you guys believe how lucky and spoiled we were by having a unicorn like manning play so many consecutive games without injury?? I only speak for myself, but I totally didn’t appreciate how fortunate we were until seeing how easy it is for a qb to get hurt, even if they are just a drop back passer and never run.
  21. I think the best case scenario this year is for Richardson to stay healthy and get better and better and for us to get the #1 pick, trade that to a hopefully qb needy team around the 3rd pick or so for a kings ransom, and get Marvin Harrison jr and a bunch of other good picks.
  22. It looked the spot was horrible after the 3rd down. I thought he had it by at least a yard.
