  1. I understand that we need to play are starters and keep there timing but I would like us to play it like a preseason game. I don't care if we win or lose the game as long as we stay health.

    I don't agree and I'm sure Pagano and Arians don't do either, there going all out to win this game and get some momentum going into the playoffs. Alot of good it did resting our players with the weak coach we had before, Pagano has already stated he's going to play the players that are healthy because he doesn't want to lose this game, he said we don't lay down for anybody no matter what the situation is, and I totally agree with him!

  2. A young Archie Manning.   Which is funny because the 2 families are friends.  Same height, both physically strong, big arms, very mobile, similar demeanor and both played behind the worst offensive lines in the history of NFL time. Archie took sacks the way Luck is taking them this year and never complained.  He was always running for his life and yet still able to make exciting throws.  Most people who saw Archie always said he would have been elite if he had ever had a good Oline.  He still put up good numbers just like Luck is doing this year.  Of course, we hope to correct our line issues but Peyton and Eli's Dad didn't get so lucky.

    He doesn't remind me of Archie Manning at all, he does remind me alot of Ben Rothlesberger!

  3. Do your homework before you start spewing nonsense. There's like a 2% chance of NOT making the playoffs.

    I'm not spewing nonsense, nothing is gauranteed in life. I probably should'nt have said a good chance of not making the playoffs, but there is always a chance whether its 2% 1% or whatever. Just in case we don't make the playoffs whose spewing the nonsense then?

  4. Tebow did some amazing things for Denver last year, I really don't understand why the Jets never game him some extended playing time this year, especially considering who their QB was this year. I honestly don't know if I've ever seen a worse QB than Sanchez, theres no way in the world Tebow could have been worse than him. Don't be surprised to see Tebow as the starting QB for Jacksonville next year. Despite what alot of people think, if given a descent shot I think he could be a good QB.

  5. I honestly don't expect us to go far in the playoffs. I think we have a chance going to Baltimore in the first round, but other than that, I see us getting spanked hard if we go to Denver or NE. That being said, I am ecstatic about what this team has shown me so far, considering that most people thought we would do very little this year.

     

    Next year however, will be a different story. I expect Grigs to bring in quality free agents and draft picks, and make a serious run at this thing. With Luck and his rookie blunders behind him, I think the sky is the limit. But for now we may have to settle for one and done. 2 and done at most.

     

    But whatever the outcome, I'm proud of my boys for what they've achieved in a "rebuilding" year. It's A LOT more than anyone in their right mind could have ever hoped for. Rock on COLTS!

    Your assuming we get to the playoffs, nothing is set in stone. If we lose the next two games theres a good chance we won't even get in. But even if we don't get to the playoffs this has to be considered a remarkable season for us, with only great things ahead for the next decade!

  6. Andrew is taking a terrible beating because of our horrible o-line, even when he can pass the ball there are guys draped all over him. This is why his pass completion percentage is so low. When he was at Stanford they had a very good o-line and he had time to throw the ball and his pass completion percentage there was around 70% for all of his 3 years there. Our o-line needs MUST be addressed in the off season, if it isn't Andrew is going to get hurt bad, I'm surprised he hasn't already. In the meantime he needs to rollout more to avoid all the pressure, he has good speed and he throws well on the run, so it makes no sense that he's staying in the pocket and taking a horrible beating thx to our rotten o-line. I don't think Andrew is calling the plays so Arians needs to wake up before it's too late! 

  7. Huge mistake by Robert Irsay, he never should have  given in to anyone with elway. Elway was just bluffing with that playing for the yankees stuff, he would have come around before the season started, and would have played for the Colts, I truly believe that. Irsays poor decision could have cost the Colts a few Superbowl titles.

  8. The chances to win the division rest entirely on our shoulders. Win out, and it's ours. I think that's highly unlikely; I doubt we beat them in Houston next week. But, as the saying goes, that's why they play the games.

    Thats not true, if the texans beat new england and the other game they play besides the Colts game, the Colts could win there last 3 games, and would still lose the division to the texans because they would be 13-3 to our 12-4.
  9. Peyton was the best of all time, Andrew has alot of potential but I seriously doubt that he will ever measure up to the master, anyway Andrew has never played in the playoffs so how can anyone be sure that he will be better than Peyton was in the playoffs.

  10. One thing that Luck does that sets him apart from any other QB in the league is his amazing ability to win games in the 4th quarter. He already has 5 4th quarter comebacks in either regulation or overtime this season which leads the league! And to be able to lead game winning drives with a couple minutes or less in the game 5 times by a rookie is unheard of! Do you think if rg3 was on our team instead of Luck that he could have done the same thing and have 8 wins with our current roster, like NO WAY JOSE!!!

  11. Just call Andrew "Mr. Clutch" not just because of what he did yesterday in crunch time, but because he's been doing it all season and for a rookie to be doing that is incredibly amazing! I never remember a rookie QB doing anything close to what he's been doing this year at the end of games! He plays his best when the game is on the line, and nothing seems to faze him in crunch time when most games are won, and for this reason I think this bodes well for us not only making the playoffs but possibly going deep into the playoffs! There's something very special about this kid, that makes me truly believe over the next decade that we will be hoisting not just one Lombardi trophy but several!
