Okay. Sure. Cool. Let’s get back to the game. Why are we even defending the Titans?

They did the same to Allen during the Bills Bengals game. I don’t agree with it, but they’re obviously enforcing that taunting from the higher ups. Remembers it’s No Fun League now.

There we go. Good defense there. Force Levis to throw.

Looks like we’re here to play as well.

Atta boy Pierce!

Yeah. Wide open TE.

Well that was fast…

Let’s get the dub today boys!

So… How long will they stay Pats fans now that the dynasty is over?

It’s very dreary, gray and blah here in Indiana for sure.

Yep that’s the one. One of my all time favorite episodes:

Here’s to a win and a healthy and safe game! Going to 7-5 would be very key to our chances of a playoff spot.

Especially given the history of that hand forcibly tossing people out the door for not getting immediate results…

It always seemed like Indy was split between Bears fans and Pittsburgh fans before the Colts arrived in ‘84. I still have family who support those two teams. We’ve already checked one box on my list of teams to beat this year and I’d be happy. Pats down. Hopefully Steelers next. It’s gotta happen at some point right?!

Look, I respect the heck out of you as a poster. What’s happened has happened. I have no ill will towards Luck. I hope Richardson can have success with this team for years to come, so that 2019, 2021 and 2022 eventually become just a bad dream.

Just as delusional and defensive as a Luck hater. I thought this was a Colts site…

For all we know, going into 2019 Luck could’ve been out for an extended time, even possibly missing the season anyway. So many act like he wasn’t injured when he decided to retire, and that if he would’ve stayed with the team he would be playing and the season would’ve been saved. Even after retiring he was still rehabbing at the team facility. So was it a career ending injury? No. But it was enough that he was going to have to go through recovery and rehab all over again. That particular injury was enough for him to say enough is enough. I guess the case can be made it was all Luck’s fault for 2019. But from 2020 on it was squarely on the team to figure out what to do. I don’t agree with this whole hatred against him for “setting the team back decades”. The team came up with the plan after 2019 ended. And it ended up being the wrong plan in the end.

So you’re saying injuries had nothing to do with Luck deciding to retire?

Yeah he was pretty passionate with his opinion during McCafe’s show this week. It was kind of nice to see Chuck so candid.

And it's becoming even more clear, that just like Adam Gase with Manning, Hackett is truly just not a good enough offensive coordinator and rode the coattails of Rodgers.

I drafted Jones last year, and had the same problem. I avoided him this time around. I also avoided all Bills running backs. Mostert was just a random, "well Mike McDaniel likes running the ball why not" moment. And I thought Breece Hall would be catching passes from Rodgers...

Also, good news! Anthony is back in the locker room: http://kentsterling.com/2023/11/30/anthony-richardson-back-in-locker-room-curt-cignetti-is-coach-of-the-hoosiers-who-is-curt-cignetti/

I will say this about that particular roster and that particular situation. The collapse of 2021 against the Raiders and Jags fell squarely on Reich, his coaching staff and the players. For 21, Ballard had assembled a roster good enough to make the playoffs. Honestly in hindsight, Ballard should've put his friendship aside and fired Reich after losing to Jacksonville. They should've went into the 2022 season with a new head coach and not have gone after Matt Ryan. Oh well. At least we've got Shane now, and we're in the thick of the playoff race. And hopefully we'll have Anthony back next season to really see what this team can do at full power.

My current matchup will decide the #1 seed as my opponent and I are both tied with 10-2 records. I think he's going to wipe the floor with me though. He's got: Stroud Etienne Aaron Jones Hill Lamb Engram Dell Chargers McManus Dak got me 28 points at least, but Lamb has netted him 33 points. Breece Hall was killing it for me early, but now the offense is completely dead for the Jets. I'll have to hope Brown, Collins and Smith can each get close to 30 points for me to even have a chance...

A saying to remember: Just because they're old, it does not make them wise. Just because they have wealth, does not make them invincible. Just because they're a celebrity, does not make them beyond human.
