I think the bigger question for the Colts is....can Luck put up the yards without Sean Smith being his victim this time around?  Seriously check the NFL.com highlights from that last game.  Check out how often #24 was on the end of those plays ;p  It was downright embarrassing and one of the reasons they never tried to re-sign him.  Grimes/Patterson/Slightly Improved Carroll is an upgrade over the Smith/Carroll/Wilson of last year.

I am looking forward to seeing how the coaching staff has attempted to fix some of the major flaws from the Oakland game, more than how this team will be at the running back position. I think Ballard was a huge loss, but Bradshaw, Brown and Williams will easily take care of business. I am still mostly concerned with how the Offensive line protects Luck. That's where I saw their biggest issues. Pep needs to step it up, if you see someone getting man-handled substitute him don't keep him in the game the whole time, especially if he was injured all last season. Com'on man...

      Post-draft needs?

      By Goatface Killah · Posted

      This is exactly why I cant stand analytics.   My idea of good is someone who actually produces results. Everyone misses tackles, because its very hard to tackle a professional athlete 1 on 1, a position hes in constantly because he plays in open space against incredible athletes. And the more plays you are involved in, the more youll miss. By your calculations there, he couldve made over 200 tackles that season. Thats an insane number that has only been produced twice in the history of the league.   Just the fact he was in a position to do that, is incredible. And youre essentially rewarding lesser players who arent good enough to put themselves in that kind of position and making them look better by suggesting them missing less tackles means they are better players. In reality, they just arent very good a lot of times.   To me this is like looking at the NBA and suggesting Magic Johnson wasnt that good because he led the league in turnovers almost every year. An argument Ive heard many times. But when you look at the list of players who turned the ball over the most, its a list of the best players of all time.    The best players.make the most mistakes because they do the hardest job. They expect to do things other athletes cant even get into position to do. Anybody can avoid missing a tackle by not putting themselves in position to make the tackle in the first place. Thats not a sign of greatness.

      Colts select Adonai Mitchell WR Texas (Merged)

      By VikingsFanInChennai · Posted

      Here's a perspective on College WRs having had less than 2 career YPRR. Adonai Mitchell is one of them.    It's a long thread, so peruse all the tweets under. This year might be an exception (as explained in the Twitter thread) because of the COVID shortened high school and freshman years for many of the rookies.

      Colts select Matt Goncalves OT

      By throwing BBZ · Posted

      Where the rubber hits the road. The concerns. Top heavy Shorter arms 19 reps hard to believe Not a bender as is Fries   Fries can't be counted on when we need a yard. They get under his pads time and again. All Gonc needs to do is be equal in the run game but a better pass blocker. This would be a big help.
