  1. Sadly sports owners care only about the money. I totally get it, but fans get shafted when they become part of the team as a fan.

     

    Although they moved, it's still in the same state a few hours away I guess if you still wanted to follow them. I get LA isn't SD, but for the fans who won't be able to let go it's still doable to be a fan of the Chargers. Just don't say the city name..

     

    Many older Colts fans have been through this. I'd root for them as the Guam Colts.

    I've been watching Boulware for a while now and I can't help but think "Damn, he'd be such a Grigson pick". I can absolutely see us taking him in the 4th. Grigson seems to love vocal leaders, slow and not rangy physical run stuffers for linebackers. For what it's worth Boulware had some amazing plays yesterday and the best thing is he was diagnosing plays before they happened and he was instructing teammates before the snap to adjust to what he was seeing.

     

    I couldn't find a recent video but here you go:

     

     

     

    Totally agree. The broadcast would scream if he 'kind of' made a play.

     

    He's ok for a college player, but would have probably .5% to make it as a pro, better then the 0% shot I have, but they were hyping this guy up like he was Ray Lewis in his prime.

     

    But I thought to myself honestly...Grigson better not want this kid..

    The problem with this logic is that everyone is going to add playmakers in the division. All of the others teams in the division are getting a year of development for their young players. I don't know their cap space, but the Titans have 6 picks in the top 75, the Jags have the 3rd pick I think, and the Texans, while having a lower pick, still have all their picks. While we are improving, so are they. We have to choose our players correctly, and have them miss, which is hard to do when they have an advantage with higher picks and more picks.

    Agreed.

     

    Folks were also saying 10-6 or better guaranteed because we have Luck back last year.

     

    I wouldn't guarantee a division title.

    I hope you overspends if he has to on a couple big time guys...Kinda like Miami did signing Suh...Kind of how it is now with the cap being much higher..I'd rather overspend on a couple true difference makers than overspend on 5 guys that are mid level or your taking a chance on potential....We get 2 impact guys in positions of need on defense and then hit on 2 or 3 draft picks on that side as well..We should realistically be able to compete for a Super Bowl if the coach doesn't hold us back..

    Definitely agree with you on going for an impact fa (if they work out is a different conversation).

     

    I think they have to go more of the 'all in' route so as to not completely fall apart on D again.

    Grigson has botched free agency so far and last year didn't attempt it at all. With the cap space and a reasonably high draft pick he has no choice other than to go all out to save his job if he stays this season.

    That could go really well or crash and burn..lol

     

    He may do great knowing he's on the hot seat or panic and reach on some FA's and we're here watching the playoffs again.

    Don't lie, of course you or anyone on here would if given the title of Colts GM. I would love to sign the FA's I wanted, extend and cut who I wanted, trade and draft who I wanted. You kidding? We all would love to have that control for our favorite team and get paid for it! Absolutely!

    Then I'd have to read all you guys calling me trash and wanting me to get fired...:D

    We already took the supposed steps..Why are we starting over again?

    That's the million dollar question honestly. Someone botched the rebuild, but not sure if it was Grigs or Jim honestly. For all we know he could have told Grigs we need to win now, bring in whoever is out there. Now he's cutting them slack and doing it the old fashioned way by developing and drafting.

     

    It's not the cool thing to mention here, but we absolutely botched the first half of Lucks career in terms of building a competitive team around him.

    Probably..but I sure would like a chance with Andrew Luck healthy and Frank Gore running well.

    NE without Gronkowski are beatable

    I can't see it honestly...the black unicorn would destroy us (is he hurt or playing?)...Edelman would be his usual annoying self.

     

    Our D wouldn't be able to stop them even if luck put up 35 I'd bet.

    The only reason I'm upset is because we' would have beaten Oakland in Indianapolis and we'd be heading to New England to take on the pats without Rob Gronkowski

    That would have been great to win a playoff game, but I'd bet Monday wouldn't be too fun in this forum.

     

    They'd roast us.
