Bradshaw was a beast, you know the O-line loves blocking for this guy, his hard-nosed, physical style or running really fires up an O-line, and the whole team for that matter. He energized this team yesterday,the harder he ran the more fired up the whole team became, they were thriving off of his intensity, and what's great about that is Richardson is the same style or runner, once he gets up to speed, and we have these two intense, physical ground and pound runners the entire team will feed off of this energy, and just like yesterday we will be a physically more dominate team." It's fun being the bully on the block"

Coach Pagano said it best.  "We have to remain humble."  Coming off of uneven efforts against Oakland and Miami...this statement rings true!

 

I love this post JackColt...it has energy just like both Bradshaw and Richardson brought to the offense.  I praised McGlynn and Linkenbach in other threads, but I hope guys are noticing Thornton is a mauler.  He pulls as well as any rookie guard I have seen and always seems in position.  Costanzo and Cherilus get :thmup:  :thmup:  as well!!!  TEAM.....effort in all 3 phases!!!

 

I also love the Trent Richardson quote in Colts.com quotes by Kevin Bowen:

 

 “At first, everything was going fast, but the game did slow down. I hit the playbook real hard and got to studying. I knew the game was going to come to me and I just had to let the game come to me. Also Andrew Luck is a genius and Ahmad Bradshaw helped me out. All the guys on the offense helped me out and they were encouraging. They want to be great and I know why I am here. I am here for the long run and I am not going anywhere. We are going to be a great team.”

do you think Bradshaw is at all upset?  I hope he is not mad about Trent coming on board (regardless of what he says)........ I would hate for there to be discontent amongst the troops.  perhaps deep down he felt a bit threatened or hurt.  But he only has a one year contract.  Why can't we just go ahead and lock him up for another two additional years for about 2.5 mill ?  I think it would be worth it don't you?  I think it would ease his feelings on this whole matter.  Also, i consider AB full-back , TRich tail-back, and both feature back, right?

read some articles - cleveland and browns blogs etc - they are saying, "see, that's what we already knew about TRich, he's good for 2.5 to 3.5 YPC, blah blah blah" ---- i mean, really? he hardly has seen the playbook.  did anyone get the opinion that he is going to be held down to that type of YPC? I don't -- he looks pretty explosive and 49ers are good vs. run.

Bradshaw made a big statement on Sunday that he is number one back on this team. He may not wind up being that but he certainly played great.

      *Update: AD Mitchell signed

      By Superman · Posted

      Does the same dynamic and conflict exist when it's a positive report, based on unnamed sources?    What if a reporter just generalizes this information, without offering quotes? 'People I've talked to have concerns about this player's maturity...' Is the standard the same in that case?   I think if media didn't share these anonymous insights, the stuff we love to consume during draft season would dry up, and we'd be in the dark. There's a voracious appetite for this kind of information. That doesn't mean the media has no responsibility and shouldn't be held to some kind of standard, but I think your standard is more strict than it needs to be. JMO.   To the bolded, I think that's the job of the scouts, and it's one of the reasons there's a HUGE difference between watching video, and actually scouting. That's why teams who have access to film and independent scouting reports still pay their own scouts to go into the schools, talk to the coaches, talk to family and friends, etc., and write up in-depth reports on players that they'll likely never draft. I'm confident the Colts got sufficient answers to those questions, which is why I'm not concerned about it. If the Colts didn't have a reputation for being so thorough with stuff like this, I might feel differently.

      Not sure. To me a lot of those (not just about AD) read very gross and icky, especially coming from people who have things to gain from perpetuating a narrative. IMO unless it's factually supported, you probably shouldn't print it(this is specifically about character/attitude things... things that we cannot see with our own eyes on the field - about those... go wild... print whatever you want, unless you are concerned with looking foolish). Or at the very least you should make everything possible to corroborate it with people who are close to the situation - for example, your anonymous scout tells you AD Mitchell is uncoachable. You do NOT print this unless a coach who has worked with him confirms it. Your anonymous scout tells you that when AD Mitchell is not taking care of his blood sugar levels, he's hard to work with. OK, this seems reasonable enough. But does it give an accurate picture of what it is like to work with Mitchell? In other words - how often does that actually happen? Because Mitchell's interview with Destin seems to suggest that he's been taking the necessary measures to control his blood sugar levels. Did it happen like once or twice in the span of 3 years in college? Or is it happening every second practice? Because when you write it like McGinn wrote it and then suggest that he's uncoachable, what's the picture that comes to your head? And the fact that your scout also told you "but when his blood sugar is ok, he's great", doesn't really do anything to balance the story here.

      Got it. But what do you think should be done about this?

      I mean that anonymous scouts and anonymous execs work for some team in the league. Those teams have interests very separate from the interests of the reporters giving them platform...
