Your favorite colts player of all time besides Manning.

I would have to go with Reggie Wayne. That guy year in and year out is one of the best WRs in the league. He played lights out against the bears and had like 3 one handed catches. He looked like he was 25 out there. He hasn't aged a bit. And he is super consistent and hardly ever makes mistakes. His route running is one of the best ever in the NFL and his hands are also one of the best ever too. He almost NEVER drops a pass or fumbles at all.

How can you not love Reggie Wayne? This is one of my favorite Wayne moments. This touchdown was huge.

Mike Curtis followed closely by Bubba Smith and Johnny Unitas.

Thank you

Unitas easily

Love Bubba not that great an actor but was so happy when we drafted him

Mike Curtis is needed now, he can teach defensive toughness to Ray Lewis

I have to say though I love all players named, people are indicating to me at least that they are Colt fans basically after they moved to Indy

What a rich history before that, Gino Marchetti, Jim Parker Art Donovan , T Raymond Beery , Lenny More , John Mackey/ there is a reason an award is named after him ,,,,,,, need i go on , all = deserving of being someones favorite

You appear to be an ole timer like me in that you appreciate great Colts, no matter what the era. There have been a lot of great Colts players since the first year in 1953. I think there is a long list to choose from and I hope that Luck, Allen, Chapman and the others can continue the tradition of great Colts.

Past: Bert Jones.....injuries kept him from being one of the best ever (Throwing to Roger Carr...handing off to Lydell Mitchell and Joe Washington (Mr. All Purpose)...btw...I still think he was one of the best I have seen.......

Manning Era: Marvin and Reggie

Present: Reggie (continued :)) and Mathis

Future: TBD: I will simply call him the New ERA Monster. :coltslogo: :colts:

    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him. 
    • if he is healthy and they make the playoffs in spite of, say, Houston being the 1 or 2 seed in a loaded afc, you think Irsay would contemplate firing him? That would mean we took another step forward and AR proved he could stay healthy and play ball. I don’t see his seat being hot in that scenario at all. I see the organization being fired up with that and ready to hit the offseason hard to take the next step forward. 
    • Hmmm.   ”Healthy excuses will be hard to come by.”    Really?   Richardson, who had less than a thousand snaps in college, then had roughly 200 snaps his rookie year.  There’s one.   And Houston has Stroud who had a great rookie year.  Aren’t most media predicting Houston and JVille ahead of Indy this year?  That’s two without any trouble.     I just think insisting on a division title because a fan thinks it’s time doesn’t stand up to much scrutiny.   Sorry, just my two cents…. And often not worth that much.   
    • For me absolutely it does. If Richardson stays healthy excuses will be hard to come up with. As positive as I am with Ballard at some point we have to start winning. He bet on himself by bringing in his own home grown talent this year, what he does at safety in the coming month and a half has me worried as well. We were so close to winning the division last year with a back up QB that my expectation is winning the AFC south this year.    If they make it into the wild card game and lose then the seat is just as hot for me. If they advance further and make a Cinderella run then I’m fully back on board.
    • 3 straight losses for the Reds. They have their moments where they play well. But it’s time to be real. They aren’t a playoff team and will never be as long as the Castillinis own them and David Bell is manager.    De La Cruz is fun, but his career will be wasted on this team.
