Lets just hope it doesn't happen. Otherwise, I will go back on my ranting about the REFS .

To follow this up, there are really only 7 or 8 fanbases that are happy in a season. Teams that stand out in a season usually making the Divisional Round at least, being very good. The other 24/25 teams all have problems that are glaring. Only 1 fanbase that is really happy though - who wins the SB.

I am always concerned about that. At least we are at home, but it didn't matter vs the Browns lol.

Should be a fun Chess match and a real entertaining close game. Can't wait for this one. All we could ask for is at least 1 game in January that is meaningful. We all could be talking about the draft about now, but the Colts have said - not yet.

A lot of issues our team has, 25 other teams have the same issues, I think most people in here don't look at that concept. Ours are just magnified in here because it is a Colts site. From GM, Coaching, lack of talent on the roster, inconsistent QB play, crowd noise lol.

As of now, I still have no switching and it is 1227pm Friday afternoon. Having said that, there is 1 game I may switch and that is the Seahawks at Cards. For some reason the line went from 5.5 to 3.0. I don't know what is going on there. If I switch, I will note it before the game. Cards just beat Philly as well.

Yeah, any given Sunday or Saturday . It has been a pretty fun season. I am always an optimist if I think we at least have a team that doesn't stink like in 2011 or 2017. I had us at 8 wins this year which was real optimistic. We have won 9, so the Colts have done better so far than what I even predicted at the beginning of the season.

He is nervous about this game. He knows how big it is, so he is probably avoiding Social Media and people in general. A win tomorrow would be our biggest win since we beat the Broncos in the Divisional Round in 2014/15 IMO. With a win tomorrow, he knows it will be tough for anyone = media/fans to be critical of the franchise moving forward which he can feel good about. This game is really huge for Ballard, a win here makes him look really good, + some of our fanbase love to kick the guy a lot about his team building it seems .

RCA Dome was louder but that was because it was condensed. I can buy LOS is in the top 10 at worse as far as being loud. 6th kind of surprised me but I think top 10.

My Condolences. Cancer sucks!

2 things that will really IRK me is, if we turn the ball over giving them the game. 2ndly is, if we give up 1st downs on 3rd and 10+, If they continually get 1st downs on 3rd and long in a huge game like this, Bradley needs to go! If Houston can do that, just think what the Elite QB's will do to us.

Stroud has been the best rookie QB. For a rookie, has had a very good season, maybe great. Having said that, he has laid some eggs as well. He doesn't fear me like an Andrew Luck would as a rookie. As of now, IMO he isn't even a top 10 QB in the league, I would say top 15 though already. He does scare me mainly because he's streaky and in a 1 game elimination situation if he gets hot, we could be screwed.

I agree. Only way they beat us is, if we lose the Turn Over battle. If we don't turn it over and get a couple that gets us points, I can really see no way they beat us. I would let Stroud get his yards and just not break in the Red Zone, holding them to FG's. I would focus on stopping the run and take chances on SP Teams like trying to Block a punt, etc..

No worries. Basically at least for me, if we beat Houston (make the Playoffs) and Minshew even lays an egg in the playoffs, I am not going to complain about anything. The chances of us winning the SB is probably 5% as of now. We don't have a better roster than the Ravens, Chiefs, Bills, Browns, or Dolphins - all have better QB's as well. Minshew would have way overachieved if we make the playoffs, JMO. He has flaws but a lot of QB's do.

Maybe CJ will stub his toe getting out of the shower

Never said you were being critical of him; I agree with you he is flawed. My original post was meant to say, if he wins Saturday, how can anyone say anything bad about the guy. Doesn't mean he isn't flawed or whatever. You are blowing this way out of proportion .

Maybe the line will move back to the Colts being favored now by 1 .

I don't wish injury on anyone, but I am not crying either. I am sure they aren't crying for us with AR being out.

Never said he wasn't flawed, he is flawed but it is a little nitpicky to be critical of a guy that has been a lifetime backup if he gets into the playoffs. I guess if we don't win the SB, pick away. I won't, because not 1 person in here said we would even make the playoffs when Richardson went down. That is like someone be critical of a fighter that has won big fights but then is a 20-1 odds underdog fighting Mike Tyson in his prime but loses.

Yeah, he can say what he wants, it is his right. Then I can come back and say, Houston has had a weak football team compared to us since the division realignment in 2002. Division Titles 9-6 AFC Title Game Apps 4-0 SB Championships 1-0 SB Apps 2-0 -Andrew Luck even punked them in the 2018 Playoffs at Houston! SCOREBOARD!

Great news!

Point is when Richardson went down, did you think we could go 10-7 and make the playoffs?

Probably for the year.

True though, Jim would be like what the hell are you doing wasting that $100 whiskey.

I will say this, if Minshew wins this game, nobody should never say another bad thing about him.
