Colts are injured across the board on both offense and defense. IF were healthy it'd be interesting to see where this team stacks up. Current state..doesn't look promising

Faulk was great but Dickerson was better so I see your point.
I looked Faulks #'s up and surprising to me his last year '98 was his best year in Indy and aside from his 13 game season in '96 the other 3 years were pretty stellar too. In my mind I never thought he reached the hype he had coming out of college until he went to the Rams..his #'s show otherwise tho

Marshall Faulk. Did pretty good with the Colts but really became the complete back and integral part of the greatest show on turf with the Rams. More disappointed,never hated, to watch him flourish in a different uniform than with Colts

I was 7 years old and had the Jones #7 jersey as a kid. Was my hero. Like many, lived through that... watching him retire early and then the bad teams. The Elway fiasco. Then the "move". Still stuck with the Colts. As adults, can understand some of Lucks reasons. Hate it most for the young Colts fans, prolly have Luck jerseys, was their hero. Some might have been at the game. And they won't get the chance to at least see him retire and ride off in the sunset under better circumstances.

In hindsight, Irsay did Peyton a favor. The O line stunk as did the defense.

Shocked but not shocked. Thought could happen, but didn't think it would. The timing is awful but just have to keep moving on. Sucks
-
At this moment in time, and hopefully soon changes, biggest "hole" is no Andrew Luck

Logically speaking, if the three premises are all false (as evidenced by the first preseason game), does that mean that nothing is possible? Asking for a friend.
Not many positive "possibles" with that performance for sure

Our oline sucked. I dont think that was all Brissett. Plus that was basically his rookie year.
Agree. That's why I said haven't seen enough of Brissett behind a much improved O Line and not many QB's would've looked good with the line Brissett had to work with. Reich believes in Brissett and stated he believes Brissett is a top 20 starting QB in the league.

But with the tough schedule, I wouldn't feel that the team could make a deep playoff run.
That drives the "concern" for me. I feel that this team is primed for a deep playoff run. Without Luck, the expectation goes down.
True. I just feel that O Line can now protect a QB AND open holes in run game. Haven't seen enough of Brissett with those attributes. Seemed opposing defenses were on him as soon as ball was snapped the games he started, not many QB's if any could flourish in that scenario. Also would depend on EVERBODY staying healthy

If Brissett manages the game, the defense is as good as we think it might be and can also muster a potent run game anything is possible

`05 I was sitting in the funeral home for my Grandmas prayers services. Knew they were losing but my cousin was getting updates somehow and told me they were lining up for a field goal. Never forget him disgustingly whispering "he shanked it" with vein popping out his forehead..was a double bad day

If, as a Colts fan, that is what interests you, then I encourage to research it and start a thread. I'm sure you can find the info in the article linked in the Colts.com write up.
Sorry, don't have that kind of spare time on my hands. Thanks for the encouragement tho

Wonder how many players had "career" days against the Colts defense? Brandon Marshall, Maurice Jones Drew and that Chargers punter come to mind for starters

Tom Brady isn't your average QB, he is one of the best ever if not the best of all-time. People see how great Belichick is and think he can plug in any QB and win SB's. No he can't, he can win a lot of games and proved that with Cassell in 2008 but winning 10 or 11 games in the regular season and winning SB's is a big difference. Take Brady away and Belichick IMO would probably only have 1 or 2 SB wins. Belichick is that great but Brady is super clutch in the playoffs.
At first I was like "what kind of question is that, who would you rather have?" More I thought on tougher question to answer than meets the eye. But I agree, and that's why I used Brady as an example of 1 way to success and the 80's Redskins as total opposite. 2 different ways, both worked. How many SB's would Brady have "without" Belichick? Nobody knows..Its a tough choice on who would you rather have, the league has changed and a franchise QB is more important than ever. I like what Ballard is building and tho..

As much as I love and believe in Andrew Luck, my vote goes to Ballard in the long run. It takes great combinations of GM, Coaches and players to be great and remain great. The Patriots have Brady and make it work adapting to the other personnel. The 80's Redskins had Head Coach Joe Gibbs, GM Bobby Beathard and multiple QB's and RB's through their great years. Takes a balanced team to be great, remain great. Takes a great GM to make that happen.

DA is now in Miami
Thanks for reminding me!

A lot of us , including me, feared Dorsett and D Allen would go to NE and light it up, resurrect their careers and it hasn't been the case. They're still sticking around but nothing spectacular. Bottom line, Ballard wont overpay replaceable players

Hype. But I believe Ballard and Reich will keep this team grounded to 1 game at a time
-
With not much "fluff", this forum will reach epic proportions on who should/shouldnt be cut. Good thing to have
-
That behind the scenes draft tape, Ballard was pumped just talking about him..said he was a freak!
-
Incredible behind the scenes video! All that going on while we as fans wait anxiously for the picks. Good stuff
