  1. Is it possible that TYH could put up those numbers?    Sure.     But is it likely?    I don't think so.    Here's why.

     

    Since the goal is to have a much higher completion percentage this year,  I expect Luck to have roughly the same number of completions,  but in fewer pass attempts.   And, then we'll run a few more times per game.

     

    Last year's WR's...  Wayne 106 catches,  Avery 60 catches, and Hilton 50 catches.    The TE's much fewer and the same for the RB's.     I suspect this year DBH and TY to have roughly the same number of total coaches as TY and Avery did last year, which was 110.    So,  roughly 50-55 each.    

     

    I'd expect Wayne to have 20-25 less catches.   Not because of his age,  or because he can't cut it anymore,  but because the offense will work better (more efficiently)  if we have more weapons.   More players for the defense to worry about.   So, take 20-25 catches from Wayne and give them to Fleener, and Allen,   and the RB's, including Havili....

     

    Now defenses have all sorts of concerns.   Luck could pass to almost anyone on the field, and my bet is -- he will..!!

     

    This is what I'm expecting.   I still think Wayne gets 80-85 catches and 1,000+ yards.   But I think the goal is to spread the ball around and make the overall offense more dangerous.

     

    That's much hunch......     Not easy predicting 'less for Reggie' especially since Luck LOVES throwing to him.   Not easy for a young quarterback to throw less to his favorite target,  but that's my guess....

    -omg- that's alot of coaches, lol.  i know, i know...just caught my eye there lol 

  2. best cod games of treyarch is world at war, and best of infinity ward is mw2, ever since those titles came out in the cod series has been epic fails.

     

    Madden 13 was epic fail with the players tripping over each other.  I've had my rb run into the back of offense line and fall down on their butts.  It was ridiculous.  Also when it was released, i tried making my own superstar, it wouldn't let me use my last name, the game thought my last name was profane, what???, my last name is also a town inside Norfolk, England, come on!  Called up EA hotline and explained to them they needed to fix that.  After a couple of weeks, they finally patched it where i could.  

  3. I wanted to get some feedback on what you guys thought of how I did in the fantasy draft. It was done in person with a few friends of my mom's and she's in it as well. 

    10th in draft order with 10 teams.

    Rd. 1 RB Chris Johnson -Titans

    Rd. 2 WR Calvin Johnson- Lions

    Rd. 3 RB Demarco Murray- Cowboys

    Rd. 4 QB Micheal Vick- Eagles

    Rd. 5 WR DeSean Jackson- Eagles

    Rd. 6 TE Vernon Davis- 49ers

    Rd. 7 WR Eric Decker- Broncos

    Rd. 8 QB Robert Griffen III- Redskins

    Rd. 9 WR Greg Little- Browns

    Rd. 10 DST 49ers

    Rd. 11 TE Tony Gonzales- Falcons

    Rd. 12 RB Rashard Mendenhall- Steelers

    Rd. 13 K Stephan Grostkowski- Patriots

    Rd. 14 WR Lance Moore- Saints

    Rd. 15 RB Montario Hardesty- Browns

    It was a snake pattern draft. That last pick was an iffy, but thinking about dropping him for another rb possibly alfred morris from redskins depending on how they set the starting rb lineup or another defense because I saw Lions DST is still available, good for the bye week 9.

    Let me know what you guys think. Like to hear feedback. So ready for football season to start. GO COLTS!!

    Edit: I forgot to mention it's got a flex qb, wr, rb, te format with PPR (points per reception).

  4. This should be a wakeup call to the organization.

    It is obvious that if Peyton can come back next year (sry, but this yr he's not) or if he never plays again, this team needs to address some glaring issues.

    OL, DL, CB and safety. OL should improve(rookies) but more help is needed. DL showed improvement until injuries. CB we need 1 more corner, hopefully a "good" one. safety depth is needed.

    Our MAJOR concern is the QB position (for future) but that could be helped dramatically by improved OL and defensive play. If Peyton can play again, how many years can we realistically expect him to play? Before this we were saying 4 or 5. Whats now? 2 or 3? 4 maybe? We need to groom the next one now if we get a chance to draft someone we feel would be a franchise guy. He'd be ready about the time manning retires. The experience from a preparation standpoint would be invaluable. he would just need some practice and playing time.

    If manning can't come back (there is no guarantee), then we'd have our "future" guy to either throw to the wolves or we bring in a vet QB that we feel is capable in leading what still is a quality team to a SB run. I would think we could temp a "better" QB into coming here for a year or two.

    It will be interesting to see what Painter can do from here on out. Who knows, maybe we'll be surprised. Too bad he won't get enough protection for a real chance.

    I would be prepared for next years training camp as if Manning wasn't coming back. Consider his return as a bonus. Then we're prepared even if he does come back and regresses during the season. We still need a #2 that we are comfortable as our #1 if needed. Anything less is asking for another season like this one.

    A vet like carson palmer maybe?

  5. If and that's a big "If" we need a veteran QB to step in for Peyton the first game of two why not go after Carson Palmer? Better than Painter and Orlovsky.. I suspect 18 will be ready for game 1

    cant get palmer, hes retired and bengals wont trade him if he comes out of retirement. They still have rights to him.

  6. Those 2 years are almost the same(very average).He's a solid back-up.But he's nothing more than that and now he's damaged goods(one too many whacks to the head).I think he'll begin to hear footsteps every time he goes over the middle and cause a lot of tipped ball INTS in the process.He'll get replaced soon.

    Maybe u had too many whacks in the head, the point was he was on pace to having a monster year. Maybe ure just a hater.

  7. lol, you remember two plays.opinions can't be debated,so i am of the opinion that time of possession is everything and that relates to defense. and when manning is on the sideline for 40 mins a game that is not good, homer or not.goodtime for a timeout.

    Manning on sidelines for 40 mins? Didnt we win that one game vs miami on mnf?
