Blue Horseshoe Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Manning and Brackett are out and Collins is too new.There is an obvious leadership vacuum and someone needs to assert themselves and get the team back on trackWho do you think it will be?I'll say Saturday & Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoKeR Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Wayne, if anything he will lead by example. The was a nice catch in the back of the end zone, showed alot of focus keeping his feet in. I think this team can still have decent record, maybe make the playoffs?The offense just needs to start making plays, it will build confidence, resulting in more great plays. Rightnow, I don't know what to say about the defense. I could understand the defense when Manning was here, the bend but don't break philosophy made perfect sense. A defense that protects a lead. What's the logic in bend but don't break when your not protecting a lead and down by 3 scores??? I don't think personnel is the problem, but what they're told to do is.

21isSuperman Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 On the defensive side, I would look to Freeney and Bethea. On the offensive side, I would look to Saturday and Wayne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, I think our team has great character. I'm very proud of how they conduct themselves on the field and off. Even though things look bleak, you don't hear them backstabbing each other or in football terms throwing team mates 'under the bus'. GO COLTS!

turner46992 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I am going to go out on a limb here but I really think Pat Angerer would be the guy to get the Defense pumped up and ready to go. I could see him really just leading these guys in the right direction. As far as Offense, Id divided the leadership between wayne leading the Qb, WR, and Rb. and Saturday obviously leading the line. So my conclusion is I think three leaders(new captains) could be made this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitto Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I thought that was the coaches job............oops.Ummm thats why they have captains on the team? On defense i would say freeney.. on offense wayne or saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty27_1 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I don't care who shows leadership at this point.

colts_mp Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 all these guys had the chance already. They knew Peyton was out and talked like they were going to step up in the game against Houston. Yet,...none of them did! Even against the Browns I don't see it happening.

chrisfarley Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Yes, I look for Pat Angerer to step it up this week!nothing good happened on defense with a few exceptions. might as well be Pat who steps it up higher than he did last game. yea, i know, he had lots of tackles, but i say he needs to get even better for us to have a chance.

ruksak Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I think its imperative that Collins steps up into a leadership position. He was so pedestrian last Sunday. I want to see him vocalizing and really take ownership of this offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonychen Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I think its imperative that Collins steps up into a leadership position. He was so pedestrian last Sunday. I want to see him vocalizing and really take ownership of this offense.I think the same, it is hard to make a WR or Colts defensive player our leader, according to our tradition. Nobody does it better than Collins. But the thing is he needs to improve his game and chemistry with Wayne, s.t. he can have the confidence as a natural leader instead of just a vocal one.

chad hugo Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 i usually see robert mathis getting everybody pumped up on the sidelines on tv and at the beginning of a game, the camera is focused on whoever is giving the speech, and most of the times i see mathis or brackett but i really want angerer to step it up and take charge...

wanabecoach Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Reggie on O and Freeney on D.... wait a second. There is 52 other men on the roster besides Peyton. I say everyone steps up! If one or two does..expect the same results as last week. It takes a TEAM to win..no where in team do I seen in parenthesis "Wayne" or "Saturday" or "Bethea" They will all rise-up to the challenge. I highly doubt they want to be embarrassed again like last week in Houston. They are professionals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColtsLover4ever Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Even against the Browns I don't see it happening.

GoGoColts Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I don't think that leadership is an issue on the team. We just need better play. The defense got turnovers and held the Texans scoreless in the second half. Had we not turned the ball over so much we might have still lost, but not so badly.

Andy Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Reggie Wayne on offense, Antoine Bethea on defense. Jeff Saturday will also step up in general, and remember PM and Gary are still on the locker room and the sidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGugly Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Agree, Wayne, Freeney, but let's not forget the other guy that played a hulluva game last week, Dallas Clark.better add a disclaimer, her does not block well..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
