  1. he was supposed to come into Bills camp at at-least 250, he showed up at 223 and they about gagged on a spoon, they were ticked off like you wouldn't believe.

    Saying they were ticked off is an understatement. He was already setting himself up for special teams and backup LB duty at best, then he shows up at the same weight as the coaches mother, not going to cut it. That's a joke people, geez!

  2. Manning is the evaluator for guys like Davis, so yea, Manning didn't like what he saw, talked to the coaches and an instant decision was made. If Manning starts talking playbook and you look like you just soiled your knickers, then you are going to be selling newspapers on the street real quick. or insurance :)

  3. Yup, he was re-signed (not the first like you predicted) but you did call it.

    But signing is not half way to starting. Show me a play in the preseason game where Devan played it well. I didn't do any weird analysis, I watch the game, I watched several plays over and over and over again. Devan did not play well.

    I agree, DeVan did not play well at all. I saw many plays over and over too.

  4. A player only becomes "GOOD" when your team wants him or shows interest, then all the fans go crazy for a name-brand,,,,,but TJ Housh is no-longer a name brand. He has gone from a Dell Computer to a Clone computer, Just isnt the same and never will be. WR's start declining well before his current age.... just ask Jerry Rice. Rice thought he would never lose his skills till the age of 40, he found out the hard way.

  5. Sorry to say but our running game will again be down there with the Packers. Manning is the whole key, Chris Collinsworth said we will not make playoffs and that Manning is setting up for a VERY disappointing season. Ugh. I wish (hoping)Chris was wrong.

  6. Chris Farley, huh? Not as funny as I remember.

    I'm sure you hope you're right too so next year or later this year you can say, "see I told you so". The thing is he was in a terrible system, for his play, with the Eagles and prior to injuries with the Lions' Tampa 2 he was pretty darn good. So I don't see how he can hurt us, if he doesn't play that great than Conner steps in (not Wheeler), simple as that.

    Also, who exactly calls him "The Whiffer", your sister's-mother's-son?

    Well, you bring up very good points. He was in a not-so-good-system, terrible? Not sure bout that,,,NFL teams are NFL teams and people get paid a lot of money to not barf chunks when it comes to at least putting a respectable plan in place on game-day.

    Your comments notwithstanding and are well taken.

  7. I've heard MANY people talk about SIMS (SIMMS) and was told NUMEROUS times that this guy is trailing WAY off and will not help the COlts much at all. I don't want to bust the bubble, please, don't get me wrong here but this guy is going to hurt more than help....he's known as the "Whiffer".... should tell you all you need to know.

  8. one thing i might add is that this might be a sign and trade, someone could possibly have interest in him but as I recall, he hasn't had a good season in like....let me count. 2010 no, 2009 no, 2008 no, 2007 uhhhmmmmm getting closer.

    so you never know, he is no doubt looking for his last Super Bowl opportunity, this might be it for him (here in Indy)...perhaps he would be willing

    to do some of those injections before each game and suck it up and make some friggin' tackles. might need them at half-time too. they are NOT illegal and I think it could really be an answer for him. If he can still leg squat which I heard he can, then we might have something there.

  9. Done nothing for the defense...cough cough Anderson cough cough Sims...I know they aren't superstars, but they are both solid players

    2006; Sims was yet another Matt Millen overdraft - he was taken ninth overall despite serious concussion issues in college. So far, he's been most noted in the NFL as a rangy but undisciplined player who tends to whiff mightily in space.

    Anderson -- scouting report on him of late is that he is too predictable, too slow, no range, no explosive jab step, no spin move worth discussing, injuries have already caught up to him, teammates could say he's a liability, etc, etc, etc.

  10. ANSWER: It certainly isn't the Ernie Sims led Colts.

  11. I think we all realize how long a season this will be for the following reasons:

    1) Injuries will plague this team again. It's simply too old of a team not to be. (come back later in season and tell me I was right, cause I am!)

    2) Manning neck will be a pain in the ______ oh, neck

    3) Offensive Line will be an Offensive Line (Polian, this one's on you)

    4) Free Agent signings are so far, a joke, like always

    5) Defensive woes were sooo atrocious last year that I think everybody really does forget about how bad it was because of the other turmoil going on.

    6) We didn't wait for Bob Sanders to get healthy. He will be terrorizing people vs. the Chargers. He is the real deal and will be awesome this year!

    mark my words on all of this.

    THANKS FOR READING Y'ALL!!!
