I would like to see Ballard stand pat at #15 this year. The Colts need impact players. Having one on a rookie contract is a big plus. If you consider that up to 5 quarterbacks may be selected before the Colts pick, the Colts may have the equivalent of 10th pick of non QB talent in the draft. Prime position to draft a day 1 starter and impact player. As a fan, I love the extra picks, but the Colts have enough JAG's.

Thanks for the assist

Aikman just mentioned the Eagles offense misses Shane Steichen

Sign Pittman and hope Odunze falls in the draft. Harrison, Nabers , and Odunze are likely all gone before the Colts pick. It is possible 5 quarterbacks are drafted before the Colts pick which would help the Colts select an impact player. Some have Bowers lasting into the teens ; which would be an excellent pick for Steichen’s Offense. There are no Safeties or Linebackers graded out in the top half of the first round. ‘Ballard is more than likely to have better CB , DE, options at #15 without moving up. So Ballard’s board may dictate the Colts go defense first for the upcoming draft - if he stays at #15.

MAYHEM- in Detroit Tonight!

Puca Nacua’s Relative Athletic Score -RAS was 5.17. NFL Rookie Receiving and Yards Record in 2023

Hard to imagine that this game could be anymore personal for these two QB’s tonight. By far, the best game of the weekend.

I don’t think the Lions care what others say outside their own organization and are happy with the contributions of this draft class. They are after all finally in the playoffs.

Yes, they got dinged for taking a RB high - according to some, But Jack Campbell was the 2022 Butkus Award winner as the best linebacker in college football.

PFF gave the Lions a B+. ESPN and the NFL Network gave the Lions a B for their draft.

In an era where NFL teams avoid selecting RB’s in the first round, the Lions did not hesitate at pick #12 to select Gibbs. They have stuck with their own plan.

Packers have a good tackling no-name defense

Some headed to the parking lot in Dallas McCarthy may get the big hook after this one. Jerry is on the bat phone.

Crowd in Detroit tonight should be lunatic level - 30 years since last home playoff game in Motown.

Alexander has been a stud CB for years. He is having a big day. Prescott is avoiding him like the plague.

Matt LaFleur deserves credit for doing something you don’t see much of anymore showing patience and sitting your young Quarterback and developing him until he is ready for prime time.

GM has been risk-averse to this point.

I remember during the 2020 draft there was a lot of speculation that the Colts were in talks with Schneider and the Seahawks to move up to #27 in the draft and rumored to be targeting being Jordan Love. instead the Packers traded up to #26 to select Rodgers eventual replacement.

Alexander has been a stud for years. . This game is looking like a fun watch. Next game should be as well - Lions have not had a home playoff game since 1994.

Titans are getting a ton of criticism for firing Vrabel.

That had to be sweet for Hill after spending 6 seasons playing in Arrowhead

Yep, that should be interesting. I am also hoping Goff lights up the Rams at home in Detroit.

Put another log on the fire -4 degrees in Kansas City for kickoff, possible double digits during game.

This game reminds me of what a heinous trade the Browns made for Watson - both compensation and contract just terrible.
