Smonroe Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Their first team looked pretty good last week. This is going to be a very good test. Strengths - Their D line is deep and strong. Maybe the best in the league. They have two WRs that can wreak havoc. Oh yea, they have some kid at QB that looks okay too... his name is on the tip of my tongue...

PrincetonTiger Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 This might be an even match since the Giants 1 vs 1 and so on unlike the Bills who only had 2 qbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susie Q Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 This might be an even match since the Giants 1 vs 1 and so on unlike the Bills who only had 2 qbs Okay this reply confuses me :hmm: The Bills only had 2 QB but they were both rookies and we still got taken to the wood shed. Sorry had to say it. I still don't understand why they didn't play Hasselback longer than they did. I know OP will say it's only a preseason game but I would think you would still want to play to win or at least come close. JMO of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameszeigler834 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 That will be a big test 1 for the Starting O-line to protect luck and for the starting D-line to get pressure on Eli. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows what Hasselbeck can do by now and his roster spot isn't under scrutiny. Harnish, however, has more to prove. Hasselbeck needs the least playing time of all of our QBs imo.

Smonroe Posted August 14, 2013 Author Share Posted August 14, 2013 In the BIlls game, we played the 1s for the first Q. That gave them game speed practice. From then on it was mostly subs, and the coaches wanted to see what they could do. There was no interest in winning the game, only winning their assignments. I think after Irsay got on them, they're going to game plan a little and we'll see the starters for a little longer. But if the Giants start getting to Luck, I hope they pull him early again.

coltsfanatic24 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 JPP won't be playing in the game so it won't be the same challenge for the o-line. The Giants use to have a deep d-line but Osi and Canty is gone and Tuck hasn't been the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we keep Harnish it will probably be on the PS. Just my thoughts for what they might be worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're really playing Harnish because you don't want your back up QB to get hurt playing behind 2nd and 3rd string O linemen. And against guys who are fighting for their lives to make a team. It's good for Harnish too. He can show that he has a future in this league, even if it isn't with the Colts. Yeah, I agree, it's probably the PS for him. We're carrying at least one FB, so it's not like we have any roster spots to waste for a guy who never plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chad72 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I am interested to see how we run against that front, that is the only thing that will slow down those pass rushers. If we can get Werner active, I would like to see how well we can get after Eli Manning. Plus, solid fundamentals in ST tackling would be refreshing. Other than that, some signs of life from our second and third string pass rush and secondary would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know OP will say it's only a preseason game but I would think you would still want to play to win or at least come close. JMO of course. Indeed! I'd like a full qtr or more from Luck, and 2nd and part of 3rd by Hasselbeck. Harnisch can wrap up the last of the 3rd and final qtr. in the 3rd game I would like 3 qtr's from Luck, and final qtr from Hasselbeck. No Harnisch. In the last pre game, Luck can play one snap, and Hasselbeck one snap of last preseason game and Harnisch can play all of the rest of the game while contemplating going to the waiver wire shortly thereafter.

I would actually do it the other way around, personally. I'd play QB3 with the second string, that way he can actually perform with some decent supporting cast members. Then I'd play QB2 with the third string, that way they benefit from his experience and we can see some of the backend options with a decent quarterback.

I was kidding him about it he just said he was a jack of all trades. Him and Vinny are the best with talking to the fans. I haven't been able to go this year due to health problems. Peace.

Sorry to hear that, it sounds like a blast. Training camp is too much of a drive for me, but I'm heading up from Bama for the Browns game. And then two regular season games. I started following McAfee on twitter. He's a mad man. Great representative for the Colts and the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
