Check out the West coast. Fly into Shannon and you’ll be close to Galway (about an hour). You can pick up the Wild Atlantic Way (coastline roadway) and head south to the Cliffs of Moher and the Dingle peninsula. There’s a cool little town (Kenmare) where we rented a house. The Ring of Kerry is close. If you have the time, you can head northeast to the Wicklow mountains (they have the most delicious strawberries there), and then either head back to Shannon or to Dublin first, then to Shannon. May the good Lord bless your marriage and the time there!! (And don’t forget to drive on the left side)!!!

I know there’s a few threads about Anthony Richardson but this one was a little unique in that it was from an Irishman (I love Ireland, been there 6 times). The cadence of the narration is a bit much but it does reveal AR is more than just a running QB: He has a pocket awareness and is pretty doggone accurate, especially downfield and oh yeah, he can RUN!! I don’t know about you guys but I’m hoping to see some exciting play this year from #5!

I don’t know why the local media (and some fans) think the playoffs are “unrealistic”. The NFL is changing and there definitely is parody across the league. Teams can go from bad to good (or visa-versa quickly. And there’s such a fine line between winning and losing. A dropped pass here, and interception there and games are won or loss on a few critical plays. I like the talent on the Colts and I know there’s question marks but being a “glass half full” kinda fan, I’m hoping for a 10-7 or better year.

Just watched this video about with Bill Polian about why Peyton was taken over Leaf: Peyton was more mature Peyton had a better movement in the pocket Peyton had a stronger arm (contrary to media opinion) Peyton had a better football IQ Oolian also touches on the 2023 draft, (prior to the Colts’ selection) Interesting watch

I like Pat but don’t really care for the language. There are some good podcasts on the Colts websites, under ”Audio” in the main menu. Matt Taylor is really likable and Rick Venturi has a lot of knowledge but is a little self promoting.

I like Locked in Colts and Kevin Bowen’s episodes.

I’m in for a 9+ season. Look what Ballard has done so far: Upgraded the coaching staff (although special teams is a ??) Drafted a potential star at QB Added depth for DL in FA and draft Added athleticism in secondary Added a dynamic slot receiver Added OL depth (I think people are overlooking the acquisition of the guard from Alabama) These things plus the (hopefully) return of the Maniac, second year for Pierce, Cross, Thomas, Woods), and the return of Ogletree and a “softer” schedule, give me hope for this year.

I like that they are in line with OS numbers. For some reason, I’m not crazy about DL taking single numbers but I guess that makes me an “Old Fart”.

Blue garrison for Harrison?

When you think about the games last year, we could have won 4 or 5 more (Washington, Minnesota, Philadelphia, both Texan’s games). In hindsight, it’s good we didn’t. That being said, a double-digit win season (playing the AFC South and NFC South), is entirely possible. One of my favorite visuals from the show was Richardson doing a flip on his pro day. I couldn’t help but think that I’d never see Peyton do that!

Yet…do you trust Kiper more than Ballard? I don’t! Morocco Brown made the comment that Ballard can scout better than anyone that works for him.

Another former TE that switched to OT. 4.89 40

This may be a good thing…a lot of capable talent left and more picks!

Thanks! Nice!

It looks like they moved down 2 and got 7th rounder

This^^^. I have a feeling that the Colts are confident they can build a team around any of the 4.

DE Will MacDonald or OL Mauch Focus on the trenches in the early rounds I think they might be fine in the secondary, at running back and TE (although they could pick up depth in the late rounds)

I hope whoever is HC / OC will use Moss and Taylor together next year. We were looking for that, this year with Taylor/Hines but…..

Except when they play NE

Saints are beating the Eagles. Like to see Sam play well (still have the Colts lose).

Hard to believe it but there’s a lot of good players on this team and they need some pieces but they’re not at a “rebuild” level. After a night like tonight, people overreact. It’s a game that just got out of hand for various reasons.

Maybe the defense is gassed?

TD Colts!!

MOJO!!!

Let’s go Colts!!
