    What Is An Acceptable Points Allowed Per Game For A Defensive

    in Colts Football

    Posted

    I don't really understand the premise of throwing out the outliers in football stats. I hear this all the time. "We held Hillis to blah blah if you don't count the long scoring run he had". Yeah, don't count big plays and D's look better.

    Likewise, you have to count the 62 points the Saints put on us. That was our D out there getting eaten alive.

    D stats are fun, but watching the D is important too. We have trouble getting off the field on 3rd down, we run that Tampa 2 a lot and let a 5-7 yard gains eat us alive.

    Honestly, if we are just trying to limit the big play with the Tampa 2, we are limiting our scoring opportunities by making the other teams eventual 7 points just take longer.

    Penalties are what gets me. That is where the coach must be held responsible. Under Dungy the Colts were one of the LEAST penalized teams in the league.

    So add that to Calwell's resume.

    Not sure what you mean "Reggie of Old". How quickly you forget..Do you remember his stats last year? Reggie can not throw the ball to himself. As I stated earlier, he is not a part of the gameplan these last 4 or 5 games. Someone has to throw the ballto him in order for him to "catch it". I don't think Reggie will have any problem leaving the Colts. The other Teams breakdown films, they know the colts are intentionally keeping his stats down, since they don't think they can make the playoffs, they see him open, so believe me they will not hesitate to offer Reggie a contract that matches his skills.

    He caught a lot of balls last year. But he does not get separation like he used to.

    Are you sure about that? Lets say we get the number one pick and the Dolphins offer us 1st, 2nd, and 4th this year and a 1st, 2nd, and 5th next year. You take the 2nd overall, our 33rd and the 34th and you can turn that defense around real quick. Then we know we will have a nice top 10 pick next year to look at a QB or other position to get more help at defense.

    Now if there is any sign of Manning not progressing like we want come draft day then we take Luck no questions asked.

    If they give up THAT much, then perhaps we trade down. But I think we are thinking of replacing Manning if the opportunity arrises. What makes you think that the organization shifts gears and ACTUALLY focuses on D.

    Watch them trade down and get a WR, TE and OL with those picks!
