    Injuries will definitely make this tough. This projection isn't crazy guys I'd prepare to see some shocking cuts;

     

    I wouldn't keep 6 receivers. Chester Rogers isn't THAT special and if he's not ready by week 1 I'd put him on IR. If he is ready by week 1 then Jojo Natson goes to the practice squad until needed.

     

    We may be forced to keep 4 tight ends if Erik Swoope isn't healthy for week 1 so that makes sense.

     

    We'd have to find a way to keep Banner. He's a 4th round pick who played well in preseason. This may mean we start Schewenke at center and have Haeg and Mewhort as the backup centers if Schewenke gets hurt. That would allow Banner to make the team and Deyshawn Bond to go the practice squad.

     

    Defensive line was always going to be the interesting position. Someone good has to go. Again, I don't see a 4th round pick getting cut so I see Grover Stewart making the team, unless they think no one would take him from the practice squad (highly doubtful). The defensive line group he has may be right until players get healthy.

     

    4 inside linebackers seems low especially if Edwin Jackson isn't ready for week 1. I really don't want Anthony Walker Jr. on the field. I'd rather lose Mingo and keep Spence but that probably won't happen.

     

    Pagano mentioned Culliver as a potential replacement for Vontae so I say he makes it over Corey White.

    I'm pretty sure some team will sign him up quickly if the Colts did that.

    Don't think they would say as it plays into the cards of the LA Rams who can then prepare their defense according to the threat of Tolzien or Morris, which would probably mean cover 2 all game.

    By leaving it last minute Rams will have to plan to potentially play Luck which is a harder task all round 

    I thought about that, too, but I'm pretty sure the Rams are preparing for whether Luck is playing or not.

    Please happen. I'm going to my first colts game ever in LA and I don't wanna see us lose with Tolzien haha

     Got my tickets to see that game,  too. See you there and the rest of the Colts fans! :headspin:

    If they have no confidence in Tolzien, then give reps for Morris with the starters. I still felt that if Curtis Painter had been given the #1 team reps more, he'd have done better than using the stop gap Kerry Collins in 2011. Let us not repeat the mistakes of the past. Go with the guy who has been with the team in TC and knows enough of the playbook and has been around the team mates.

     

    I do not give this much credibility at all. It is possible Brock's name may have been floated around but my respect for the front office would go down if this happened. Very much like the knee jerk Kerry Collins move in 2011.

    Ugh, you just brought back bad memories, lol. But yeah, it would be the same scenario as Collins. I too, would lose respect if they pay ridiculous amount of $$$ for what? One or couple of starts?

    It's partially related to today's game and partially not. 

     

    This team without Andrew Luck is a 4-12 team at best. That's what the record is based on.

     

    Honestly, I think we are going to intentionally tank this season. I probably sound insane. But this season will be the second iteration of  "suck for luck". 

     

    Luck will likely have some "setback" when he begins to throw, and sit out the entire season.

     

    All extremely speculative without any facts may it be; it is my prediction. 

    You really think Pagano will want to "intentionally tank this season" when his job is in jeopardy? If you have his job, do you really want to get fired during or after the season? Yeah, I don't think so.

     

    I really don't get this "Suck For Luck" thing. 

  6. I wouldn't look much into today's loss.  Today was more of an individual evaluation and yes, there are some that stood out and some that underperformed.
