  1. And how did the run defense look when Grover was out last year???? This is a huge upgrade and relatively cheap.
  2. That is a good draft, but I would take Junior Colson instead of Wilson. Good job.
  3. Hello runthepost, KC has a qb named Patrick Mahomes and he is pretty good, so they can sign free agents and whether the guy is really that good doesn't matter, Mahomes makes that whole team look better. Just like when Manning was here. In the nfl having a great qb makes all the difference in the world. Hopefully Richardson is our guy, the only 2 years Ballard has had a "decent" quarterback we made the playoffs(2018 with Luck, 2020 with Rivers). And we were a dropped pass away from possibly another playoff appearance last season with Minshew at qb for most of the season. There is lot's of talent on this team, we have been very competitive with "mediocre" qb play. And I'll add, using a defensive scheme that totally sucks.
  4. For those of you complaining about not signing any free agents yet again- when has signing free agents EVER made a difference other than when Manning or Luck were the quarterbacks? And on top of that, one could argue many of Grigsons free agent additions actually made the team WORSE. We have a quarterback now for only the 3rd time(Luck 2018, Rivers 2020) in Ballards tenure, let's see what happens. Ballard has done an excellent job, with the roster and being fiscally responsible. How many playoff games did Wilson win in Denver? How about Watson in Cleveland? Cincinnati went to the Super Bowl and then spent a fortune on their offensive line(three huge contracts) the very next free agency period and how has that worked out? Big money doesn't equal success, it usually just gives you large dead cap hits in the future(see Denver hahahaha) Keep up the good work Ballard.
  5. I like this draft, except I would take Junior Colson instead of Wilson and then another linebacker instead Flourney at 150.
  6. I am not impressed with Wiggins at all. If you want a game-changing defensive back, trade down 10-12 spots and take Kinchens the safety from Miami, he will get you the ball!
  7. I've watched some FSU games lately and I don't see all the hype Verse and Fiske are getting. They were completely ineffective against Miami. The only player on last years FSU team I would draft is Trey Benson(probably 4th or fifth round). The 4 players I hope we come away with in this years draft are Kinchens and Williams from Miami, Junior Colson from Michigan, and Bowers(though there is no way we can get Bowers). Ballard has his work cut out for him this year, as always.
  8. Is that a complete list? Glad to see Mike Peterson on the list, one of my all time favorite Colts. Still don't understand how Polian didn't think he was good enough to be resigned. Great player. Where's Eugene Daniel and Ray Buchanan?
  9. Who I want at 15 is either Bowers or Nabors, if neither one is there I would trade down 10-12 spots and probably still get Thomas jr. Then in the second round take Colson the linebacker from Michigan and if we are able to acquire another 2nd rounder with our trade use that pick on an interior offensive lineman or a db. There should be good value at those positions at the end of the second round.
  10. I'm going to predict Richardson beats Mahomes and ends the 3-peat! Seriously, go Colts.
  11. The whole luck situation has never sat right with me. He strung the team along in 2017 before he was put on i.r. in October. Then played in 2018 for new coach Reich. Then the stories always seemed to be changing leading up to training camp in 2019. I've always had the feeling that he just didn't want to play. Just my opinion. And then we all remember it wasn't long after the retirement Ballard was pretty adamant that Luck will never be back and Ballard has always been pretty honest and straight forward.
  12. The Coryatt drop was actually the steeler wide receiver got his arm in and punched the ball out, you could see that on replay. The mills catch at the one was actually a drop, he never had the ball, juggled and dropped. Another thing no one talks about is when Harbaugh scrambled with time running down when he was "tackled" at the 30 yardline by number 24 it was a blatant, brutal facemask that wasn't called. So the Colts had too hurry up and spike the ball with 6 seconds left and throw the Hail Mary from the 30. Call that penalty and it stops the clock with 20 seconds left and moves the ball to the 15. Could have been a completely different outcome in that situation.
  13. I started watching the game with 5 minutes to go in the 3rd qtr. I will say this, the amount of unbelievable offensive holding and takedowns that BOTH teams got away with was astounding. First time the Colts lose a big gain or a touchdown on a tricky-tack, phantom nonexistent holding penalty next season I won't be happy. I thought a big point in the game was Spags dialed up blitzes in key situations in the 4th qtr. and overtime, in stark contrast to us as we NEVER blitz we just sit back and give up multiple 3rd and longs every game, sickening. Good game though, hopefully Richardson will stay healthy and start dominating so we can give the chiefs some competition, overall we do have the better roster, we just need better qb play and a more AGGRESIVE defensive game plan(i.e. more blitzes, just ask the chiefs!)
  14. What makes anyone think trading up for Herbert would have been a great move? In Herbert's 4 years with the Chargers have won 31 games in that same 4 year span we have won 33 and that includes the 2022 season where we fired our coach and replaced him with a guy who had NO COACHING experience so we could lose a lot of games and get into a position to draft a qb(genius move by Irsay). One cannot assume Herbert would be tearing up the league had we drafted him. Let's see what Richardson can do.
