Question of the Day - 09/14 "Dolphins Game"

Its going to be a very tough game to win.  I just don't see it happening with their D as strong as it is and our O-line being awful.  Turnovers, sacks, hurries, lots of balls throw away on purpose, --- that's what a good D does, but let's see if the Porpoises bring the heat.  My guess, yea, they'll bring it, but man, I hope we counter.

Im not football expert but I watched the highlights of the MIA-CLE game and every time the fins brought the heat, at least one receiver, usually a tight end was wide open and Weeden just didnt see it. Luckily Luck>Weeden and should be able to find those short/intermediate options that will be open and Luck has historically done very well against the blitz. All in all Im not worried, just a bit anxious to see how much better our line really is over a year ago

Yes, I'm concerned.  Browns have some good offensive linemen and Weeden still took 16 hits last week (6 sacks).  Dolphins front 7 looks really tough, but the offense was really weak last week (watched the condensed game and forgot that Mike Wallace was on the team -- he was only targeted a few times with 1 catch, though Hartline look good).

I have high hopes the Colts rally a big win. Will they win by a lot, probably not. I just hope they can pull it off. They still have not shown since the Peyton days that they can be dominate. Remember this phrase and why it was said, "God Bless our Colts".... That was commonly heard more prior to Peyton Manning's arrival, when the Colts were struggling year by year for a successful season.

    • Him saying 'he's just too talented to pass up' on With The Next Pick just screams that there was hesitation but he was too talented to pass on
    • WalterFootball  assigned a team draft grade of A to four NFL teams - Colts Lions,Bengals, and Ravens. Eagles receive an A+ grade.   "I love what the Colts did in the 2024 NFL Draft. They helped Richardson and also improved their pass rushing to help combat the many other talented quarterbacks in the AFC. Only two of their picks scored worse than a B-, but they were late-round selections."   ADC South: Titans C+, Texans B, and Jaguars C-.   Latu, Tanor Bartolini, and Jaylon Simpson received A+ grades
    • I thought it was a good interview but kind of odd regarding his response to AD. He said he got lucky with the AD pick but yet he traded back and he was still sitting there for them to pick at 52. He must have felt comfortable that he was still going to be there at 52  if he was  indeed their  pick in the 2nd. Makes one wonder  how come teams passed on this guy and if the Colts wouldn't have pulled the trigger how far would he have fallen? Love the pick with all that being said. I see this guy measurables and the game tape and he could be elite. I would contend that if his production would have matched his skill  set, you would have been talking about his guy in the same conversation with Nabors and Harrison. The tape is outstanding and he is an impressive athlete.  His post draft interviews were interesting in terms of his personality.
    • Agreed. I think as a draft, it is going go down as unremarkable. I think the OT's will thrive at the next level but not sure bout the other positions. Even our draft pick at #15. For the best rush end to make it to 15  kind of says something.   High  rated rush ends are     top 5 pick as they are so highly coveted.  I could see the wrs and a couple of OTs picked before our guy. However, teams didnt pull the trigger on Latua. Still love the pick
