  1. I have not heard much mention that this game is in any real danger of not being played as of lately. 

    It would certainly suck if it gets postponed/rescheduled. Bought my game tickets long time ago and already have flight/hotel/car booked. Staying on the east coast for a week as I will also attend the Eagles game a week later :eek:

  2. I've never been a big fan of our blue yersey-white pants home uniforms; been a big fan of our all-white-blue stripe away uniform however.
    After watching the last game vs. Denver, I really came to like our all-blue with white stripes uniform. I would like to see that being our standard home uniform. What do you guys think, should we change our home uniforms to what we were wearing on Thursday?

    Let's just hope you didn't spend too much money.

    Well, 2 Tix per game, LA $550, Seattle $950, + airfare around $800 x 2 for two round way, hotel for each weekends around $700 x 2, so I spent 5+ g's for both games combined.... Granted these were great seats and decent hotels but a lot for two blowout games

  4. Interesting stats is that we have only won one season opener in the last 7 years and that was against the then horrible Raiders in '13. Most of the openers have been a loss in a blow out. We seem to never be quite ready to play football at the start of the season, and now with a couple of key players out, I have my doubts. I am going to the game and hope for an exciting win for us, 17-14 Colts... Not surprised either if we get our tails kicked in a 42-6 loss

  5. As much as I do want to see a change made to this organization, I truly hope we can get a win in GB.

    I spent way too much in game tickets, plane tickets, rental car, hotel for this game (bought it all before the season started) to just witness another blowout game. I haven't witnessed a Colts Win for many years:

    My win/loss ratio is 1-7

    Game Attended:

    Dec 18 2005: SD 26 - IND 17 -- LOSS
    Nov 11 2007: IND 21 - SD 23 -- LOSS
    Nov 2 2008:  NE 15 - IND 18  -- WIN
    Nov 28 2010: SD 36 - IND 14 -- LOSS
    Oct 14 2013: IND 9 - SD 19 -- LOSS
    Dec 21 2014: IND 7 - DAL 42 -- LOSS
    Nov 2 2015: IND 26 - CAR 29 -- LOSS

    Nov 6 2016: IND ? - GB ? -- ??

     

     

    Also, we tend to play better against the better teams so far, and lose horribly vs teams we should beat.

    Here is to wishful thinking, 27-24 Colts

  6. it was the year 2002 when I finally started watching this sport called Football (originally from Europe). With no ties to any city, and already not liking the San Diego Chargers; I live in SD, it was time to find a real team to root for. It must have mostly been because of the QB surgeon Manning that I came to liking the colts very much.. A smaller market team with one of the better fan bases, I made my choice and have never looked back. Each time they play the Chargers, I have gone to that game. Only once been to a home game in indy (opening year for the new stadium, sunday night game NE @ IND which we beat them 15-18)

    Ever since, I have made it a tradition to go to one away game each year. See you in Green Bay in a week!

    You are the worst kind of "fan".  I get it.  We lost. We suck.  But to cheer for the other team? Really?   Seriously?   The NFL is cyclical.  We may suck for  3 years, win a Super Bowl,  and suck for a few more.  Just ask the Ravens.  At the end of the season, the number of losses league wide equals the number of wins.  Every team is trying.  The Colts, Pats, Steelers, and Pack have been amazing.  But guess what, the Ravens have 2 SB, the Seahawks one, the Broncos one recently.  I support firing Grigs and Pags, but we are 3 yrs away from contending and luck's window is 6-8 years.   That is the reality

     

    Far from being the worst "fan". If we were simply a team that sucks with not much talent, sure. I will root for them every day as long as we are trying to get better. With this team, that is not the case. We have two individuals that are running the team to the ground for the last two years at least. I cannot root for one more game with Pagano at the helm. Sure we have injuries, sure we have good players making stupid plays, but his coaching has been deplorable for far too long.

     

    But, but, the players "played a whale of a ballgame!"

     

    We have two guys that have ruined my team, without them we would have been a contender for the last 2 years. So with your logic, add another 3 yrs to that and it would have been acceptable once Grigson/Pagano joined a team with quite a bit of talent that we would be a 'contender' in about 5 yrs!! 

  8. I will have to see full 60 minutes of proper football played by the Colts until I even dare predicting a win for them for the rest of the season. Sure happy about the win vs CHI, but that was a game we should have dominated but came close to losing. For now, I have to predict 27-15 Houston win
