This kind of win or nothing mentality will pay off down the road with this young team.

I thought we would get blown out today. We were going up against a good, physical, experienced team while fielding a very young team.
To my surprise we looked organized and fast. The play calling was very good but we just made too many mistakes to win the game. This team will get better each week they play together. Anything more than 6 wins will be a good season for this team. I’m looking forward to an exciting season watching this young team.

Go back and look at the pads players used 10-20 years ago. The shoulder pads were bigger and well as most linebackers used neck rolls.
Mom sure players want more speed so their equipment has gotten smaller. Also * poor tackling techniques by smaller DBs.

So here’s something to add to your conspiracy theory. Gruden and the Colts struck a deal last January for him to be the coach next season. ESPN is cutting high salary employees and Gruden sees the writing on the wall but he wanted one more year in the booth. This is why the Colts stuck with this coaching staff this year. Part of the deal was to have a healthy Luck when Gruden takes over. Plus Ballard wants a high draft pick for Gruden.

I’m thinking Vontae was upset with being shopped around during the trade period so he decided he would milk his injury and not play for the Colts. Ballard and Coaches then decided to cut him. Good move. Sets a tone and gives them a chance to watch some younger guys.

I was thinking the same thing. There is a reason the Pats suddenly decided to trade Garropollo. If this was their plan at the beginning of he season they would not have traded Brissett. Seems Bellicheck is up to something.

This is feeling like Bert Jones all over again.

Manning has owner money. He will put a group together and buy the Saints or Titans. He's not going to be a GM.
-
Bringing Bill Polian back would be great but he would bring his son Chris with him.

So if I remember correctly Pagano was an Irsay choice as a head coach. If Pagano is let go and it was up to Grigson, I wonder who he would choose to bring in as head coach?
-
So my predictions are normally wrong but this is one of those games where Pagano and his coaching staff seems too find a way to have the team motivated and ready too play. Remember last year when we signed two QB's off the street and won. The one thing Pagano does well is motivate when the chips are down.
Maybe I'm just hi from the turkey fumes.

Maybe I'm getting older and I might be alone on this but the broadcasting teams are terrible. Even through a bad game, it just seemed the broadcasting teams 5-20 years ago were more entertaining with their view points. They could keep you entertained trough a boring game.

Gotta get McNary out of the line up.

I've been a Diehard Colt fan for 40 years and I still have no clue.

We were competitive last week. This week is gonna be ugly.

I have a bad feeling about today's game. I hope I'm wrong but I feel today will be a new low in the Pagano era. I could see the Titans easily rushing for 300 yards today and winning big.

Dickerson. I loved his running style. He would get super low to the gound as he went through the hole. Then he would raise his head like a stallion as he shifted into another gear.
Edge would be second. I loved the way he could always gain another 2-4 yards as he went down.
Dicky and McMillian were our best one two punch back in the day. I use to love going to Memorial stadium with my dad to watch those two run.
-
Yes the front office could have done a better job putting a better team around Luck. But how many QB's make it to the Super Bowl in their rookie contract? I can only think of two and that was Roethlisberger and Flacco.
-
So if we wanted to draw them offsides, wouldn't you want Luck under center with his great hard count?
-
Great point. I just wish we could have gotten more pressure up front. Mathis and Newsome were non factors pass rushing.
-
It was a tuff opening game. Ryan is one of the best at motivating his team and whipping up a crowd into a frenzy. He had the Defense ready to play and they executed their game plan. Hopefully the worst is behind us. I just don't see much improvement with our line play over last year. But hopefully they will continue to grow.

Not much anymore!

During the Polian years I would open my closet on Sundays and had to decide on which jersey to wear. Manning, James, Saturday,Clark, Harrison, Wayne, Sanders, Brakett, Bethea, Powers, Garçon.
Now I open the closet door and I have Luck, TY and Allen
My point is look at all the home grown talent we had during the Polian era and under Grigson we only have a few star players we drafted or developed. This is our problem. We have a ton of mediocre veterans signed from other teams and no young talent. This will bite us once Luck signs his next contract.

I had to work today so I only go to see parts of the game. Did Speed play? I didn’t see him and he didn’t record any tackles. With Leonard out, I thought we’d see a lot of speed today.
