  1. I know it takes time, but you cannot be ok with being 2nd to last with a completion percentage of 54.2, no I am not ok with seeing Blaine gabbert(although is percentage is low to) ahead of Andrew luck in any passing category, same with Brandon weeden,cam newton,Michael Vick, Ryan tannehill

    It will get better I assure you, just sit back for the ride and enjoy! Try not to dwell on such meaningless topics and watch this machine recreate itself, because it is a thing of beauty one day we can sit back and say we watched #12 and this young team develop into a championship team.

  2. To everyone complaining about luck over throwing avery on the deep ball and how he needs to be more accurate.....do you think real time game chemistry with your players grows on trees??? W

    ait a minute I may be onto something here ....there is such a thing as a ticket oak right, so maybe we can grow a maturity tree outside the stadium and let the team pick a year or two off of it.....opinions??

  3. I also think of the miss he had in the Dolphins playoff game in overtime that would have won us that game. I think about another miss he had at the end of a Miami game in the regular season that would have won that game. I think of him having to get a re-do on the Monday Night Miracle and then being moved 15 yards closer and then almost missed the kick. I also think of him missing a kick that would have won the pro-bowl. Again, the last one isn't that big of a deal at all on it's own but when you add it to the other it helps establish a pattern. Then the whole thing fell apart in Dallas after that kick. Vandy was great at kicking kicks when the game wasn't on the line when it was on the line he struggled. I can think of two games he hit kicks that we had to have. He did it against the Bills early in his time here and then he did it again against Denver in the snow bowl. To his credit he did it twice in the Denver game. I also remember Vandy shooting his mouth off about the QB and Coach here when in fact he cost us two playoff games that Peyton put us in place to either win or at least keep playing. If you are going to call out the coach and QB for not playing well in the playoffs then you better darn well come threw in the playoffs when you are needed. Vandy didn't. That's not to say Vandy was a bum he wasn't. Let's not act like he was a model citizen because he was not and frankly has earned rep he has gotten for not coming threw when the team needed him the most.

    If you would really take him over Adam any day that's up to you. I think you are one of the few who would do that given Adam's history of coming threw when needed him the most. I'll take the guy who misses a kick here or there like Adam does but comes threw with the game on the line day after day over the guy who will hit 100 straight field goals but can't hit a game winner like Vandy any day of the week.

    However, the comparison I was making had more to do with one kick than it did Vandy's whole time here. That kick yesterday was missed as bad as Vandy's kick against the Steelers that's all that comment was and if you watch them it was clear neither kick was even close.

    All that plus all the * he talked about Peyton and the team, and boy was he wrong......loser. Vandy over Vinny haha wow......

  4. I wanted to take a moment to appreciate the different "classy" moments exhibited during Sunday's Packers @ Colts game !!

    First of all - it was VERY CLASSY of the Green Bay Packers players to come out during pre-game warm-ups in "ChuckSTRONG" t-shirts !! Not surprized that Jeff Saturday did so - but - to have other players (who don't have a history with the Colts) be willing to demonstrate their support was VERY CLASSY !!

    Secondly - it was VERY CLASSY of CBS to have video messages from Ravens LB Ray Lewis - and - Jets Head Coach Rex Ryan available for the broadcast !! They also had a number of "ChuckSTRONG" graphics during the telecast - AND - showed footage from the stadium of the players, fans and stadium signage supporting Coach Chuck Pagano !! Kudos CBS !!

    Finally - it was VERY CLASSY of the Indianapolis Colts to show a video montage as a tribute to fan-favorite C Jeff Saturday who left us this off-season for Green Bay !! I tried HARD to win tickets to that game in order to be in the crowd and having the opportunity to pay tribute to a true Colts hero !!

    This game helped a lot of fans "turn the page" from the Peyton Manning era to the Andrew Luck era !! It proved that "we ARE family - and - we ARE ChuckSTRONG" !!

    Got my vote for post of the year :). truely a great day to be a Colt.........or ex-colt yea im lookin at you Saturday we still love ya!

  5. I went a few years ago and they were very good about telling you whether or not they were restricted view or not, also there are sections beside the press boxes that say they are limited view but they are not.....they are sold at restricted view price :))). So just ask them and they will tell you, also dont fall into the ticket scalper scam if you go up without tickets most of the time you can get them from the box office way cheaper. Talking about this gives me the itch ill be there in Nov. CANNOT WAIT best stadium in the NFL!!!!!!

  6. Hey everyone, hope all you Colts fans are doing really good in all aspects of your life...I want to start off by saying how happy I am with the Colts so far this season and I can't help to think what's in store for our wonderful Colts for the rest of the season. After hearing about the news today I couldn't help to think of the time my son was 10 months old and we were holding him in our arms after church one Sunday and he stopped breathing and started turning blue. Long story short, we were in the hospital for more than 40 inconsecutive days. On October 11, 2005 Peyton Manning came walking into our son's hospital room for a little visit...Our son was much too young to realize who this was and didn't even look Peyton in the eyes because he thought it was another doctor to do another test....

    Now, 7 years later, after numerous tests and everything under the sun you can think of in the medical field, our son has been diagnosed with Autism and it has been determined that he also has a chromosomal anomaly completely of his own. He may never be able to live an independent life of his own but there are some possible things on the horizon that we are very hopeful about. Today reminds me of everything we went through and how fast life goes by because at a blink of an eye everything flashes by and you don't realize the importance of each moment. I also want to say that during those roughest years of 2005 to 2007 the Colts always gave us something to look forward to every Sunday and I know it will be something Coach Pagano will look forward to (especially if our Colts are winning games that ALL the media are saying it will be cake-walk for whoever we're playing). I know nothing is more important in life than God or Family but things like a great organization such as the Colts organization always ranks up there very close in all of our hearts. The staff and players and everyone working a game from bottom to top on any given Sunday are people just like us so let's all rally together with this situation and make great things happen(this season)...GO COLTS!!

    Wow.....this is truly inspirational your story makes me think about all these moments i let pass without appreciating them especially with my own kids. I send many good vibes your way, and cannot help but appreciate how strong you are to not only get through this but to share it with all of us Colts fans. We are a family.....we are Colts Nation.....Together we get through this all together!

  7. Why are people acting like this is the first time in history a controversial call has decided a game?

    This is def not the first time and we all know that......but given the multiple bad calls it makes this situation this season worse. Come on think about it if a team has 2 penalties against them the refs usually enforce the one with the most yardage attatched to it right? Not these guys they are adding both penalties together and doubling the penalty yardage, seriously??? And let me make this clear i bet they are doing the best that they can, its the leagues fault for putting them in this situation. This game is a lot faster then they are used to, and a lot more is at stake with each game. How annoying was it watching the Pack scramble and dig through the helmet box on national TV so that they can come back onto the field for an extra point attempt, that it took the refs 20 minutes to figure out.

  8. If you watched the MNF game Seahawks and Packers maybe you are feeling what i am and i am here to vent....Im am ashamed to call myself an NFL Football fan tonight. The fact that nothing is being done about these bad calls is just sad, not only is it a shame that we have to stomach this mess but it is causing teams that have worked so hard for this league valuable wins. Goodell should be ashamed, with all of us watching tonight i believe we saw the worst of the worst and a team get robbed! If that Hail mary at the end of the game wasnt intercepted then i guess maybe i need to question my understanding of the game......Gruden said it best i have a bad taste in my mouth after this one. If i didnt have such a deep love and respect for the Colts i would quit watching this sad disgrace of a game, but the fact is i cannot stop i am addicted, i will still buy Colts jersey's and Colts related items, I will still make the drive to Indy to see them, and maybe thats the problem the league knows i will. i dont know where else to go with this..........im just plain ashamed........

  9. I understand that we have a position called " Offensive Cord" and Pagano is in fact not the OC but the head coach, but after a couple games with this stale offensive gameplan as HC do you not step in a say "Hey lets play to our strength".....Yes im not a pro, Yes im sitting at my computer desk talking smack, but COME ON! 14-3 lead in our NFL today is nothing......in this league today you need to score and score until its over. I know I know im not in their shoes, ok i get it.....but me as a fan that spends a lot of money on this team, travels 8 hrs to see them every season and live by this team expect to see them have the best chance to win, and IMO they arent given that oppurtunity. Yea im a little bit blinded by a lose and yea maybe im ranting. But i just dont see our players being used where they are the strongest.

  10. WIth all the trouble we have running the ball up the middle, why not more ptch plays, screens things to get Donald where he is the strongest in open field.....but no lets keep running up the middle and getting nothing. OHH we have the lead 14-3 yea thats enough of a lead to LAY DOWN and not play to the clock hits 0. This is awful.....i said it when AV made the field goal, 1 point lead means Jack S*** and boy was i right.

    sorry "PITCH PLAYS"

  12. The Jags for sure seem to have our number lately and have always give us fits. That ending was pretty sad to see..

    2-1 heading into the bye would have felt so good for this team and fans.

    They are still learning thoug and are rebuilding. Keep this in mind. There will be bumps in the road.

    The Colts will regroup from this and learn and move forward.

    What a great throw the TD pass to Hilton was :))

  13. Luck gets hit on his slide.......NO CALL!!!! The pass to Avery, Avery gets hit NO CALL!!! not to mention the many many others. What a bunch of garbage, Goodell you are ruining the game we all love! Someone needs to start a petition and shove it down his throat!

  14. So you may have been like " oh !!!" When he through that ball up, but i was more shocked when that pocket collapsed around him and through pure will and determination to win the game ( Also a fine quality us fans look for in a QB) he emerged to make said throw and catch. Oh and one more thing

    Eli Manning completed 30 of 40 passes for 296 yards, one touchdown, and didn't throw a single pick, and of course was named Super Bowl MVP.

    My bad "Threw"....

  15. ??? how is my saying the catch was far more impressive than the throw implying i don't respect eli? lets be honest, when eli chucked that ball up everyone was like oh %...then a back up receiver caught a football on the side of his head.

    as i stated above eli has been great, but he has def has had lady luck on his side...corners dropping easy interceptions, hail marys, receivers catching the football with their helmet, back up kick returners choking in a big moment.

  16. Let me tell you i love my WV Mountaineers and Pat was one of the GREATEST!!!!!! The joy was endless when i found out one of my favorite college players was going to be a COLT!!!! It is a moment i will never forget.......so for Pat LETS GO MOUNTAINEERS!!!!!! LETS GO COLTS!!!!

  17. the catch was far more impressive than the duck pass he threw up for grabs

    Come on give the guy his dues.......what more else can he do? What do we as Fans want?........WIn in the Moment, yea he can do that. Make the big throws, yea he can do that. Manage the clock, yea he can do that. Win in the Post season.....Yep he can do that to. So you tell me what more can he do to earn your respect???
