    Oline was just moving guys. Tremendous difference from last week
  2. He seems fine, but that hit was absolutely unacceptable. I hope the Steelers defender gets suspended a game.
  3. Colts fans First quarter and beginning of second quarter Rest of the game
  4. Despite today's fiasco of a performance, we still control our own destiny. Steelers next week is a must win though
  5. I didn't even know he was still on the team
  6. Won't be easy, but at least the jags gave us a blueprint of what not to do vs Browning 😂
  7. Honestly nothing Jeff said wasn't anything a lot of weren't saying already.
  8. This is a very puzzling question because on one hand the colts have won 4 in a row (should be 5 and 6 out of 7), but is this a team maturing before our eyes or are the colts beating opponents we should beat? Lets break it down. What has changed from years prior? As cliché as this sounds, I think the biggest change started in the locker room. The years with Reich, it just seemed like there were always issues festering with no accountability and you saw it on the field. The team eventually just stopped caring and you show it year after year. The play suffered time and time again. You look at Shane, hes had to deal with all the JT drama, losing Richardson early in the season, the consistent injuries on the line both offense and defense and yet the team doesn't look lost. Hes kept them together and thats something you just didn't see from Reich. When things were going wrong, they stayed like that. Shane has taken this team and given them something I don't think they've had in the coaching for a long time, confidence. That no matter what the problem is, they will navigate through it and get better. A lot of teams not having their best player and starting QB for the majority of the season would not have the success the colts have and yes can the offense play better? Of course, but they stay in games and make the plays when they matter most and I credit that to Shane and the culture hes building. Who are we as a team? Heres what I believe the colts were supposed to be and heres what I think the colts currently are. Richardson and Taylor were supposed to be the driving force of the offense. That was evident with how the colts were using Richardson before he got hurt and unfortunately we didn't get to see what Richardson and Taylor could be together this season. The defense has picked up were it left off last season. Creating havoc with the front and playing drop coverage in the backend. The biggest difference this year is, their not on the field as much because the offense can't move the ball. What this team is predicates on the situation and that is another thing you can say Shane does well. Unlike Reich, Shane isn't stubborn with his way of thinking. If something isn't working, he finds another way to make it work. I can't say the colts are a blank team that does x y z well because it seems like its something new every week. Defense is struggling, offense carries them until they can make tough stops. Offense is stalling? Defense keeps them in the game until they get going. Its frustration football, but its also beautiful at the same time because you just don't know what you're getting week in and week out. What are the colts? In my opinion, the colts are a team maturing before our very eyes. The constant pass rush we've needed for so long has finally started to show up. The o-line is returning the form with new young players stepping up like Raimann, Fries, and Freeland. Players like Pitt who will know can be a star is playing like the WR1 we all know he is along with guys like Downs, Granson, Moss, and even Pierce this past week all making contributions to help Minshew manage the offense. All of this is coming together and even if we don't make the playoffs, the future of the colts is brighter then its been for a very long time. I can actually say for the first time since Luck retired, I have hope.
  9. Yea, but the patriots offense is no better. Honestly wouldn't surprise me if the score is like 9-6
  10. Rams hold on and it's a three way tie for 5 spot
  11. Levis is playing his what fourth game? He doesn't have the clout to talk to a HOFer like that.
  12. As funny as that is, he's a backup making enough plays to win
  13. Let's give some shout outs to the defense. 21 sacks in the last 4 games. That's over 5 sacks a game.
  14. Steelers will be 7-5 like us if they lose
  15. The good news about the run defense, Big Grove comes back this week
