Colts "Getting Healthy"


Dark Superman

Recommended Posts

A lot of NFL teams suddenly are "getting healthy" this time of year, every year, as a lot of players that could have gone a month ago were being held out for precautionary reasons.  I'm not sure how many of the players listed above that pertains to, but we're certainly fortunate to not have had any season-enders to this point, knock on wood.

I don't know about you but compared to the Patriots and Broncos in some key categories, I think the Texans and Colts are relatively more healthier (knock on wood). AFC South is bound to make some noise at the end of the year when it is all said and done. Division title down to the wire.

You just have to look at PFT or the wire to see a new devastating injury every day. We're comparatively blessed.

I also think guys would be playing with these minor injuries during the season.

Personally, Landry and Toler worry me about making it through the year. I almost want Bradshaw to wait until November to start playing too.

Right there with you on Toler and Landry. Guys have both had a history of injuries and look to be key pieces for the defense. Hope they can both stay on the field

According to Mike Chappell on Twitter today..

Practicing in full pads..

RB Bradshaw,WR Whalen,TE Allen,OG Thornton,DT Moala,LB Angerer.

Seems like we are getting some key guys back on the field.

Mike also claims that he's a little worried that Landry has yet to practice..

Interesting.

Really nice to see Whalen is back on the field!!  I had read some bad reports on that groin injury, so I really hope he is not coming back too soon!!!

 

Moala is anxious to see the field...nice depth if he is ready.  It was the first time I had ever heard him speak in an aggressive manner.  He s "ready to get a helmet on somebody."  Do you think Coach Pagano rubs off on these guys?   :)

 

Thornton.....get some reps son.....we need you at RG as SOON as you are ready!!

 

Bradshaw and Allen.....Priceless.

 

Pat.....show us you still have it....this is your chance to get back to 'form.'

 

Landry.......C'Mon Man.......put some pads on bro!  Tired of just seeing pictures of your guns!!  Of course...tired of seeing Hocule's guns too.. :funny:  :colts:  :colts:  :colts:

Personally, I would want Bradshaw for the Monday Night game vs the Chargers. Then, he will have a short week to go vs the Broncos followed by a bye week.

 

That stretch, starting with the Chargers would be perfect to have Bradshaw for, IMO.

    • I'm excited about our future. I think Ballard put together 2 very nice drafts in a row. Never thought we would get Latu, thought we had a better chance at Bowers. Still holding out hope for Cross, he flashes greatness than dissappears, hope he's consistent. Hope Woods takes lead in TE room. I keep writing off Granson, but he keeps impressing. Even if Richardson has a mediocre season I think the team around him could get us to 10-7. 
    • I think you understood his words in a "positive" way, but that's not what he said.   He DID NOT say that "most of you would choose to get married..."   That's your implication. Of course, only women can bring children in this world and most of the women will choose to be married and have children, but that's not exactly what he said.   He said, "doing so - while some others will go on to lead successful career in the world - will take you closer to God's Will"    Here's what he said from the transcript:    He could've said, "even if you go on to have a very successful career, and get the greatest accolades of the world, I think the most important title of a woman is :  Homemaker. And, that would take you closer to God's Will"    But, he didn't say so because he wanted to say exactly what he believes women should do and brought God into that by saying that's His Will.    I think he made a mistake of implying that women are generally excited about marriage and having kids and being a homemaker, when that's only part of a woman's life - even though that could be the most cherished and blessed part of the life.   He only looked at how that made his wife's life - his words, not his wife's words by the way - and projected that to all the women. 
    • This happens every single year and every single year people worry about the occasional unsigned rookie when we haven't even gotten into June yet.   Guys/gals... it's really a big nothing burger. Ever since the NFL introduced rookie scale contracts this has been a non-issue. Everything important in those contracts has been made non-negotiable. The negotiable things are largely minutiae - it's about schedule of payment...it's about off-set language, or language about voiding salary payments(for example - can the team void payments for suspensions and stuff like that), etc.   There are two cases I remember in the last 10 years where this has become a problem and the player has actually missed training camp practices because of it - Joey Bosa(because of schedule of payments dispute) and Roquan Smith(because of dispute about the language about voiding payments for suspensions because of play). And as you see... Both of those were top 10 picks. (i.e. more money on the line)...   Holdouts/holdins of day 2 and day 3 picks are pretty much unheard of. I personally couldn't find a single case when I looked for it.    AD seems to be taking part in both rookie mini camp and in OTAs and hasn't missed any practice, we haven't heard about any sort of dispute so far, so my assumption would be there is nothing to see here and it's all formality.    So yeah... Unless we hear there is a problem I would just assume everything is good.
