The Colts are 3-1, tied for first place in their division but ahead by having a division win, and NFL.com doesn't even have a side article about us on the front page. (This is not a facetious post)

 

Looooooovee it.

 

Chiefs are 4-0

Steelers are 0-4

Giants are 0-4

NFC L'East was suppose to one of the best divisions in the NFL

Saints are 4-0

49ers are 2-2

Falcons are 1-3

Lions are 3-1, in the lead in the NFC North, and the Packers are in third place

and Denver has hit the hyperdrive button.

 

So much to talk about, who cares that the Colts are (just like last year), quietly outdoing what the prognosticators said we would do.

 

Please just let our team fly under the radar as long as possible.

Colts played the Jags & beat them soundly as most would have expected, no storyline to be had there really, there are other teams that consistently get LESS media coverage than the Colts...

 

Tenn (aside from losing Locker & whatever nonsense Johnson is talking), St Louis, and Arizona are all teams that get little Media attention, or at least that's the way it seems to me...

 

I just mention these teams because I don't  remember much attention on Arizona last year when they were 4-0, also can't remember much media noise about the Rams defeating the eventual NFC Champs. Tenn just really seems to be middle of the pack so they seem to get forgotten in the media more often than most teams...

This is so much better than having to live up to unreal expectations. We may lose even 2 of the next three (I think one), but all in all, things are going great. I just wanted to say I am thankful the watchful eye is not fully turned on us at this time.

Except that this thread started with the observation that NFL.com (based in Los Angeles, California) has no story on the Colts on their website.

 

Nothing to do with ESPN.....

I used NFL.com as an example. I was observing that it seems like we are flying under the radar with pretty much all outlets of sports talk in comparison to times in the past when we had this kind of start.

I agree it is good to see us out of that constant spotlight if you will.

 

However, it would be good to see our team on ESPN from time to time.

 

ESPN on the daily

 

15 seconds= Luck throws TD. Colts win

 

Now on to your hourly special about RG3's healthy knee

      A Write Up On Raekwon Davis' Potential Impact

      By krunk · Posted

      I'm not saying he is about to be a sack machine but you can see some of his potential as a one gap penetrator with that frame.

      A Write Up On Raekwon Davis' Potential Impact

      By krunk · Posted

      Davis came from Alabama. My point of interest as the writer highlighted is he is moving from being a 2 gapper into now only being responsible for a single gap with a lot more penetration from him versus read and react. With his length and power at 6ft 7 300 plus the expectation for him in our scheme is he will be more disruptive. A much more reliable option for us if Grover goes down in addition to whatever else maybe we can do with him.

      Potential/Average/Concern

      By RollerColt · Posted

      Thank you. You guys are too kind, but I truly appreciate the support.    Perhaps I am being too hard on myself… But my point still stands that anyone who makes it to the NFL, whether practice squad or starter, has achieved something prestigious that only a rare few ever achieve.    Over a million high schoolers play. Of those only 7.8 percent move on to play in college.    Over 80,000 people play in college. Only 0.4 percent make it to opening day in the NFL.    Only 2,016 players make it to NFL rosters.

      A Write Up On Raekwon Davis' Potential Impact

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      Davis had a very good rookie season after being drafted in the 2nd round out of Ohio State (I believe).   Graded in the 70’s against both the run and pass.      But his last three years have been disappointing, as he’s graded in the mid-50’s.   The reason I’m so interested in this signing, is (A) I’m sure it was heavily influenced by the new DL coach, Partridge.   And (B) we’re paying him 2/14.  I don’t recall that kind of money ever being given to a basic backup before.   Don’t think Davis is here to push Stewart, the Colts just signed him to 3/39.  That tells me the Colts defensive staff sees him differently.   I don’t know what the plan the staff has come up with for Davis, but I’m looking forward to watching it play out.
