  1. The surpisingly pleasant trend of not being able to beat a team twice that went 1-13 collectively against teams not named the Houston Texans?

    Good luck with your future franchise quarterback, TJ Yates......LOL

    Dude...what do you not understand about being ravaged by injuries? Do you think that loss meant anything to us? We went to the playoffs and won, while the Colts...well, they didn't really do anything. If the pride of your season was beating us, then I feel sad for you. It's quite a shame. And Yates, a fifth-round, third-stringer, did much better than THREE of your quarterbacks. Good luck with Luck...He's going to be getting crushed by Cushing, Barwin, and Reed for quite some time until you guys get that line in order. Even then, he's toast.
  2. Love your signature. You must have been SO PROUD typing that up. If you want to go on another teams message board and wind up their members, have something worthwhile to flaunt. Well, that's what our good friends from New England do on here....

    You fly back to school now little starling, fly fly fly...

    The reference to being a child or schoolboy is quite original buddy. Even though I do believe it has been used by cyberbullies who would get their butts kicked in real life. :lol: And just so you know, yes, I am proud. We won, you didn't, get over it. I actually came here to interact with the classy Colts fans everyone has been talking about. You, however, are not one of them.

  3. Oh it is. But you Texan fans get the largest of heads because you've won the division ONCE over the past like 14 years. The Titans have won it more than you guys. When you consistently win the division for more than 2 years, that's when you can call it a trend.

    Somebody still sounds a little butthurt about us winning. Think about this realistically, dude: Luck is not going to be good for the next four years. Your team is in disarray, the only thing you did to get better this offseason is draft Luck and Fleener. And by the way, we won the division in dramatic fashion...Ravaged by injuries, with a rookie quarterback...while you, however, lost in dramatic fashion...

    2-14 has never been so funny. Your team is pathetic, at least we kept winning when our FIRST TWO quarterbacks went down.

  4. Had we signed him, it would have been difficult for me to remain a Colt fan

    Tebow wins. He also ignites passion in his teammates, and like another poster said, he has the same devotion that Manning has, except he can run. Imagine him having a true offseason to workout and get better as a starter that throws passes...He'll be the next big thing, along with Newton, Griffin, and Locker.

  5. Finally a realist! I always say expect the worst when a team is rebuilding. (I know, this is a no no word with the coaching staff) This way you aren't dissapointed when they do get a few wins, which is realistic. Any win looks good when your expectations aren't set too high. In the words of Jim Mora: Playoffs?

    Playoffs? Are you kidding me? Playoffs??? I just hope we can win a game!

  6. Hey when's the last time the Texans beat the Colts twice in a year?!

    When's the last time the Texans made the playoffs for the first time? Last year, if I'm not mistaken. History is made every year my friend. Even though I would rather play the Colts at the beginning of the year...I have grown accustomed to the surprisingly pleasant trend.

  7. First of all, TJ Yates is no more than a substitute snap-taker. He never looked off his #1 receiver and all he did was threw pretty rainbows, especially when it counted. My guess is that the UH QB will take his spot given enough time, as at least he knows how to go through a progression.

    In case you didn't notice, we drafted a guy whose supposed to be a pretty good QB too, but unlike the Texans the last time they drafted a QB #1, we spent the rest of the draft, and free agency, bringing in more offensive talent so that he had someone to work with.

    And just like the Texans did last year, we brought in a new defensively oriented coach and are switching to a 3-4, with some new free agents added to the mix. We have just as much of a chance to bounce back on defense as Houston did last year.

    I'm glad that we don't play the Texans until late in the year, because by that time we have the best chance to have gotten the new offense to be playing together pretty well. At worst case, we will at least split with the Texans, as usual.

    Yates still attained a 61% completion rate, despite who he did or did not throw to. He also accumulated 57 rushing yards, since he is not a statue in the pocket like a certain QB that your team just released. Of course T.J. was a substitute; Just like Painter (lmao) and Orlovsky were substitutes as well. The difference being, they did not win much.

    And you want to go back in time, huh? Well let's see. When the Texans drafted David Carr, we were a BRAND NEW TEAM. When the Baltimore oh wait Indianapolis Colts added Manning, they had already been established since 1953 for Pete's sake. And yeah, you did add a defensive minded coach...Chuck Pagano. Pagano, however, is no Wade Phillips, so no, you will not make a miraculous turnaround. We are also much more loaded on defense than the Colts are...another reason we dominated all season, even with injuries. And that win in Lucas Oil Stadium does not really matter to us; Yeah, it'll be cool to get it for once, but since we will be cruising to the playoffs for a while now, it won't be completely necessary to have.

  8. Why does everyone think that the Texans have the division locked up? I just don't see them at 13-3 after their offseason. More like 9-7. The defense is decent, but teams now know what to expect and can plan for it.

    Their offense is on very thin ice with an injured QB, a bad backup, and an obliterated right side of the offensive line, having lost the guard, tackle and tight end on Foster's strong side. Andre Johnson has lost a step or two and is missing games because of hamstring that keeps flaring up, they did nothing in the offseason to pick up a veteran WR, and they let their kicker go.

    The Texans are very vulnerable to at least the Titans, and hopefully us. They aren't going to score a lot of points.

    If our defense was 'decent', then the Colts with a healthy Peyton Manning were 'alright'. Without an offseason we improved to the number one defense in the league the first few weeks of the regular season, had the second-fewest yards allowed, and allowed the fourth-fewest PPG. As far as an injured QB, we both had issues with that last year, the only difference being that we continued winning...And even if Schaub does go down again, God forbid, T.J. Yates was a steal of the draft, in case you didn't see how well he played last year, the exception being part of the playoff game versus the Ravens. Andre Johnson is still arguably the best wide receiver in the NFL, and now that he's tasted the playoffs, he'll be heck-bent on making it back again. Kevin Walter will do, just as he always has, and we have rid ourselves of that cancer Jacoby Jones. We also drafted a pretty good kicker, in case you didn't know. The Titans may provide competition, but with Locker, another young QB in this division, they will not seriously be playoff or Super Bowl contenders for a few years...Kind of similar to the Jaguars and Colts as well.
