Its Donald Brown's time

[oldunclemark]

Just like Vic Ballard flourished when Brown got hurt last season.

 

Its Donald Brown's time now.

 

Ahmad Bradshaw is unlikely to play 75% of the snaps....

 

Brown is a quality blocker and a secure ballhandler...and he's the big play back..

 

Last year of his contract.....his time is now....He was very good in the pre-season...and they threw him the ball..

 

He's healthy....He certainly wasnt overworked in week one...and this is a (home, conference) game we cannot lose ...if we're going to make the playoffs.

 

I feel a big game coming.

[Dustin]

It's been his time for the past 4 years.

 

I'm not getting my hopes up.

[oldunclemark]

He's what we have..Bradshaw is very good but cant be relied on...

 

.....he's had some good games...we've discussed it many times....he's still carrying that No.1 tag

 

..which makes just good no good....and we need another good game tomorrow...against a fairly good defense, I think

 

Cant be 1-1 heading for SF and Seattle.

 

You'll come around and get down with Brown

[Maniq]

I'm excited. Brown has speed when given gaps to run through. Hopefully the O-line will give him some.

[USAFHoosier]

We need him to do well to keep progressing as a team.

[1959Colts]

It is his contract year.

[CR91]

more like its kerwynn williams time

[SOMDColtsfan]

Always been a supporter of Donald Brown, he`s got some talent just maybe not 1st round talent. Would be awesome for him to stay healthy and add another dimension to the Colts offense. Definitely now or never

[BOTT]

Brownie looked pretty good following a FB in preseason

[Nesjan3]

they need to run stretch plays to the outside, delays and screens, if they try to pound the middle with him aint nothing happenin

[Stephen]

I expect big things from brown so I started him in fantasy football.

[Thewholefnshow28]

Exactly. He had four years to be the man and he has been nothing but underwhelming. Thankfully he is solid enough to not be terrible out there but he is not going to carry the load. Lets just hope Luck can take his game to the next level to carry the team.

[ar1888]

I have always hoped for the best when talking about Donald Brown. He is a quality runner, and he is not a quality blocker.

who did you bench to start brown?

[Dustin]

You got that backwards lol.

 

Pass blocking is probably his biggest strength.

[PrincetonTiger]

This could be his final chance

[BleedBlu8792]

You'll come around and get down with Brown

... And Brown can be relied on? OooooK...

[ar1888]

No I do not. He always looks lost trying to pick up the blitz to me.

[Dustin]

No I do not. He always looks lost trying to pick up the blitz to me.

[BigQandTheManiac]

why is everybody sooo high on Brown???

[MTC]

Let's just say it's Browns year to show he doesn't suck at RB for FA next year.

[GoColts8818]

We've been saying this about Brown since he was drafted.  While he's had moments till he does it on a constant bases I am not banking on him. 

[LockeDown]

why is everybody sooo high on Brown???

 

Cheerleaders have enthusiasm even when they are down 40-0. In other words, their "happiness" is not based on facts.

[jameszeigler834]

Ya im not counting on brown but it does stink that the colts wont have Allen this game.

[Goodtimes]

Just like Vic Ballard flourished when Brown got hurt last season.

Lord help our Colts...

Exactly. The brown love is insane and based on draft status only

[Poster X]

Stop it's hammer time... No now it is Bradshaw time, but Brown will have to make his presence known. If not this could be the end of his tenure. To be hones I'm hopping to see Williams a little.

[oldunclemark]

I have always hoped for the best when talking about Donald Brown. He is a quality runner, and he is not a quality blocker.

He's a better blocker than Vic Ballard..

...but that's a moot point now....

 

he has strengths and I hope we can exploit them.

 

We're facing some good defenses this month 

[oldunclemark]

Stop it's hammer time... No now it is Bradshaw time, but Brown will have to make his presence known. If not this could be the end of his tenure. To be hones I'm hopping to see Williams a little.

That would mean its a blowout....

 

Its Bradshaw and Brown right now..and Bradshaw looked limited physically last week.

 

Its Brown time

[oldunclemark]

Exactly. The brown love is insane and based on draft status only

so is the criticsm......

 

His averages are good..he doesn't fumble...he's better than average as a blocker and a good pass catcher.

 

And he's what we have right now...like ti or not

[oldunclemark]

why is everybody sooo high on Brown???

clearly..everybody isn't..

 

But he's the man right now if Bradshaw is still hurt..

 

If he can total 100 yards rushing and receiving anytime the next 3 weeks...you'll say you knew it all along

[oldunclemark]

... And Brown can be relied on? OooooK...

BIg games in 2011.....good blocker..breakaway threat......and he's not on IR...He's your man right now 

[dudeski]

so is the criticsm......

 

His averages are good..he doesn't fumble...he's better than average as a blocker and a good pass catcher.

 

And he's what we have right now...like ti or not

He is average at best in catching and below average as a blocker.  He was beat out by a rookie last year and has never looked like a starting rb

[BOTT]

That would mean its a blowout....

 

Its Bradshaw and Brown right now..and Bradshaw looked limited physically last week.

 

Its Brown time

I though Bradshaw looked fine. If he wasn't I don't know why they would give him carries and none to Brown.

[SOMDColtsfan]

A healthy Donald Brown = Robert Smith, former Vikings RB.. same build and running style

[BigQandTheManiac]

clearly..everybody isn't..

 

But he's the man right now if Bradshaw is still hurt..

 

If he can total 100 yards rushing and receiving anytime the next 3 weeks...you'll say you knew it all along

naw i'll say its about time...and give him his props..nut i see what you are saying

[dudeski]

A healthy Donald Brown = Robert Smith, former Vikings RB.. same build and running style

donald brown has not show anything to be compared to a guy like smith

[Kenny]

Brownie looked pretty good following a FB in preseason

 

Looked good in 2011 when we had that 1 FB as well, can't remember his name. Can't remember exactly the difference but his PA was like 1.5 higher with one than without.

[Jeff Daughtry]

I want to see what Donald Brown does with 20 carries in a game we need to give someone the ball and tell them go 13 touches for Vic last week wasnt enough for me

 

 

 

[Jeff Daughtry]

GIVE THE BALL TO BROWN
