  1. There's no reason to separate the WR's from the TE's as receivers in this kind of discussion.

     

    We have a top flight overall receiving corps.

     

    Do you really care who gets the pass if there are passes going all around?

     

    We have two top quality receiving tight ends and they're not getting enough targets.    And neither are Hicks or Moncrief, or Rogers or, for that matter,  Trent last night.

     

    We have lots of weapons and most of them are not being used at all, let alone effectively.

     

    I view this as a Pep thing.    And if Luck needs to audible more to make it happen -- then do it.

    I love the "audible" part of your comment. Can you imagine what (and I hate to mention him here) Manning would do with this mix of talent? Luck is young, still - he needs to take control of the offense...maybe treat Hamilton's calls more like "suggestions." He isn't a college QB any longer.

  2. No one should give on the season because of 2 games that many expected us to lose. Both games were 1 possession games.

    We are a better team than last year on paper. We arent super bowl contenders, but we are set for 11-5 in my opinion.

    That means closing out the remainder of the season 11-3.  Hmm.  Other than Divisional - we have Ravens, Bengals, Steelers, Browns, Redskins, Giants, Cowboys and Patriots.  Depending on the breaks, etc., the team could just as easily go 6 and 8 or 7 and 7 over the remainder.  Will be interesting to see how it all rolls out.

  3. I attended a Colts-Jets game that fall.  It was a pretty bad one - but the Colts pulled out a 6-3 win.  My real memory, though, is that Jeff George got pulled and sulked, alone, on the end of the bench as the team got the improbable win.  I felt that he was quite the jerk.

  4. We moved from the end zone, top row in the BL party zone to one of the corners under the jumbo-tron.  We like the vantage point of the corners and are high enough to see the whole field and have a good view of the jumbo-tron and close to bathrooms and concessions... And we moved down just a few rows from where we were and are out of the sun!

     

    Win win!

    They open the roof?

  5. I know it's hard tomcompare players across different eras, but Manning is as unprecedented five time league MVP (I know one was in Denver). He also is likely the sole reason the Colts are still in Indy and the reason for Lucas Oil Field. I'm old enough to remember Unitas and understand his greatness, but totally reject him as the choice of all time great a Colt QB.

    Not many viewers recall or even know that when the first four All-Decade teams were picked retroactively in 1969 with the celebration of the NFL’s 50th Season - John Unitas and John Mackey were the QB and TE for the "All Fifty-Year" Team.
