Interesting fact I discovered on the colts.com roster

Mr. Josh McNary weighs more than our Mr. Jerell Freeman.

So, could McNary be the ILB partner of Freeman? I think that's gonna be something I watch this pre-season

McNary as ILB, that is my impression.

I'm not to sure Andrew falls under the " elite" catagory yet .

 

I can't argue with that point, given his body of work.  I'm not sure when you can judge a QB elite. 

 

I do know that if you ask any analyst to pick three QBs they would want to start a team with, Luck would be one of them.

@KBowenColts: Erik Walden on setting the edge: "It's just about heart...setting up a wall for the defense to allow the inside backers to make a play."

@KBowenColts: Dwayne Allen on Erik Walden: "He understands leverage and hand placement. He destroys tight ends. I'm definitely glad he's on our team."

Well Brent I'm in Anderson and it's still pretty wet so if I was a betting person I would bet that the open outside practice will also be moved inside. Just my thoughts on the TC.

I've been less than impressed with Mishler's perspective and inability to communicate unfiltered what is really going on.

His write-ups at the end of the day have been decent, aside from the usual Stampede Blue bias. Much better content than his Twitter feed.

I know he's a real long shot, but I'm rooting for Rayford. I was listening to an interview he did and the kid loves football, he refuses to give up the dream. He's 27 so this may be his last shot.

Plus, a 6'7" LB has to be able to bat down balls, as well as kicks.

I knew he was tall but just seeing that dude out there was crazy. He towers over the other LBs and pretty much everyone other than the OL.

I think Kevin Bowen's tweet yesterday made it pretty clear he impressed the coaches in one on one drills.

 

To me, how can Mishler say this after one day anyway?  28 sacks at Army was not a fluke.

 

I think all Mishler is trying to say is that none of us should get too carried away based on one nice first day for McNary...

 

1st....   the kid played at Army...  and going from Army to the NFL is a big, big jump.

 

2nd...   the kid hasn't played in what, 3 or 4 years?    That's likely going to make the transition even harder...

 

3rd....   if the kid is indeed being moved from OLB to ILB that's another hurdle to clear, and a pretty big one for many LB's to try to make.

 

4th....   the speed jump and the ability to recognize is going to be very hard for McNary to absorb....   I'm absolutely pulling for him...    but just making to the PS would be a great accomplishment his first year.    If he somehow makes the 53,  that would be incredibly impressive!

 

I don't think the writer means any harm....   just a cautionary note...   at least,  that would be my read....

Lol apparently Allen has taken over 100 yoga classes this offseason to work on his flexibility.

 

Brilliant move by Allen, this should be required for every player. It's easy to make fun of, but man, is it useful. He needs to drag Khaled Holmes and Boyett in there while he's at it lol.

 

If the Moleman can handle being the youngest guy in a Yoga class by 30 years, there's no reason these players can't get over themselves and do it. Props to Allen for starting what hopefully becomes a trend  :clap:

@andrewmishler: OC Pep Hamilton said Bradshaw's injury status does "not necessarily" affect any decisions at RB. Likes the mental work he's doing.

@andrewmishler: Hamilton on DHB: "He's fast. He has the potential to be an explosive playmaker and he's a pretty good run after the catch guy." (1/2)

@andrewmishler: Hamilton followed on DHB: "We would like his hands to be a little more consistent, but he's working at it."

@andrewmishler: Hamilton: "I'm excited about Griff (Whalen). He's having a good camp so far. He still has a ways to go, but were excited about Griff."

@andrewmishler: Hamilton on Fleener: "He's making plays that big-time NFL players tend to make."

@andrewmishler: To piggyback that @JimIrsay tweet, Pep Hamilton said the Colts are "a physical, downhill, running football team" today. Panic button?

those that don`t GET IT could panic

      Yeah, Ebukam almost looks clumsy next to Latu. He's just so fluid.

      How many games will the Colts win in 2024?

      By Chucklez · Posted

      Did Hou actually get that much better? This really does remain to be seen. I am of the opinion that the signing of Diggs is a signing that has been made about 2 years too late. He won't be bad, but he isn't a top 10 WR in the NFL anymore. I wouldn't put him as any more dangerous that Pittman, so WR's are a push. We have the better RB, Mixon is great and all, but he is not JT. We have the better Oline, and it isn't even close. TE's are a push, we have a lot of upside, but until it is realised im very "meh" on our TEs. QB - I would argue that Stroud is probably more likely to regress to the mean in year 2 vs improve. That rookie season of his was a bit silly, and they had an easier schedule last season too. If he really does build on last year and get even better, then our entire discourse here is probably irrelevant as we will have another Mahomes level QB on our hands to deal with in the AFC and within the AFC South no less. So unless Richardson is also a Mahomes level talent in that scenario, we are done for anyways. To me, our success in this coming season comes down to 2 groups on this entire team. 1. The QB (because... duh) 2. Our DBs. If we even get average play from the DBs, I think this team has the ability to win the whole damned thing (supposing Richardson stays healthy and is what we all hope he is). I would also argue that Houston are paper thin. If they lose a OL starter, Mixon or even one of their starting WRs.... they have a very big drop off. And injuries happen in the NFL. Just sayin...

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      If he wasn’t fast enough or athletic enough anymore for linebacker, then he’s not going to be able to cut it at Safety where speed , quickness, athleticism are even more important.    Wish it wasn’t so….
