O-Line problems [Merge]

[AlanNC]

Wake up and play.  

[lollygagger8]

Satele is the problem. He's getting manhandled per usual. This is getting ridiculous. McGlynn can't play anything but center, so move him over and put in Link or Reitz and be done with it. I realize Grigs paid Satele, but cmon, the expirement hasn't worked since it began. Please make a change before Luck gets destroyed!

This has only been called for since the middle of last season. He's gonna play out his contract and he's gonna start as long as he's healthy. At this point, how can anyone believe the only reason he and McGlynn continue to start is anything but pride and/or favoritism?

[Dark Superman]

RIP Luck

[Dark Superman]

I been saying this for the past year and a half.

[bap1331]

I think so too...we play better without him

Satale , the two guys on his right , the two guys on his left , special teams , defense. That cover it ?

[shevz]

Look this last sack hahaha

He was all alone in an island blocking no one, what a joke

[SIXTHOBJECT]

He's not the only problem....

[IndyPhil]

I don't understand how Grig's can make such excellent decisions on personnel yet not replace Satele and McGlynn this offseason.  I've really tried not to lose confidence in the leadership of this organization but this is absurd.  

[AlanNC]

Always has been since he was signed.  Bad signing.

 

[In Luck We Trust]

bad play calling on offense doesn't help much either. i mean come on, calling for a 50 yard bomb on first down?? and no play should be called in DHB favor EVER!!!! the guy is so dang horrible. how do you try to catch a ball with your chest pad?? should have kept throwing to whalen he was fighting for first downs each pass he got. Whalen and screen passes. but momentum shifted after that PI call was turned. still dont get how you call that a PI move the ball and then turn around and say no foul. 

[Turftoe]

Just wanted to add that Castanzo is a poor man's Tony Ugoh.

[colts824]

DHB IS SORRY, TIME RODGERS TO BE CALLED UP. THE O-LINE IS PITYFUL.

[1959Colts]

The line has gotten much better once Linkenbach came in at guard.

What does that say???????????

[will426]

Lol idk if anyone noticed but guess who's starting for the ravens now...A.Q Shipley -__-

[TKnight24]

[Michael Myers]

Lol idk if anyone noticed but guess who's starting for the ravens now...A.Q Shipley -__-

Well at least we get our conditional pick...

[GwinnettColt]

Satele seems to be the common thread at center. When Shipley was in, the O-line was better.   When McGlynn (can't believe I'm typing this) was in, the O-line was better. 

[NewEra]

It's not the line it's Trent /s

Luck did look horrible. Not sure if it was because of the line or not. He just never looked comfortable. He over threw so many passes I lost count. Grigs, Pagano, someone needs to pull the trigger on this line.

[will426]

Lolol I say we get Martin and incognito I'm sure they can play better than satele and mcglynn even in dif positions

[Gavin]

Probably that an opposing team goes into a game expecting to have to deal with a certain player (Mcglynn in this case) but once that player goes down that team had to adjust on the fly to the knew player coming in which is obviously not easy to do...Other then that not alot, Link is marginally better then Mcglynn but so is my little brother who has not played either Guard position in almost 6 years since Junior High

[coltsfanatic24]

I said it from the start we have the worst interior o-line in the league. Satele probably couldn't make the Jags roster and Mcglynn is at best a back up C. We should have signed Louis Vasquez which most people wanted but instead we sign RJF who's been terrible this season. The blame falls on Grigson.

[chrisfarley]

look at the replay of the game and you'll see that we aren't that bad as far as O-line.  and Rams are pretty decent defensively.

[3nk1du]

I knew the Colts would lose, since i watched the Rams 2 weeks ago, they have the counter vs Colts this is why.

Super passrush, strong running game. The Colts struggled so much with these.

 

Cutting heads isn't the solution, IMO the solucion is forget about begin a power running team(Colts OL can't allow that), i really hope Pep and Chuck notice that( cause they knew the poor OL but they still try to be a power running team).

 

Actually i dont like agressive Grigson because a year ago the Colts was a rebulding franchise and Colts is still a rebuilding franchise, and Colts need Draft picks to rebuild(so in general i didn't like T.R. adquicition but it wasn't that awful because Colts lose A.Bradshaw after that)

This is my first post but and i'm not a native english speaker, so yeah i could have a lot of mistakes, i'd like to ask for this thing than i've seen before, when you comment something about the colts organization you use "we" and i have troubles with that cause i  don't really know how to write something about the Colts properly.(I mean, when i try to refer to the colts, Colts are or Colts is).

[CoachLite]

Maybe your mistake is "Grig's can make such excellent decisions on personnel". Even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then. At the end of the season, we'll see.

[jbaron04]

Im 140lbs ,colts give me a try out I may get pushed back but at least ill be on the guy , that s atleast better than statele right

[coltsfanmilyman]

Lol idk if anyone noticed but guess who's starting for the ravens now...A.Q Shipley -__-

AQ played great for us last year.

[YOUR GM]

Lol, if going off recent history, it says Linkenbach is on his way out the door this off season. Can't be showing up the starters like that! (ala AQ Shipley)

[will426]

AQ played great for us last year.

Oh I know I'm simply implying that he's now a starter someone else is obviously happy with his abilities

[Moose Of Woe]

If Link is the answer, we're in more trouble than I thought.

 

The O-line needs a complete overhaul from top to bottom. It has a good game now and then and people say it's fixed, but the reality is it hasn't performed consistently well in six seasons.

 

There's no point drafting a good QB if you're going to watch him run for his life 90% of the time and praying he survives the next hit. If that QB goes down, so do we. We're fortunate Andrew is as durable as his predecessor.

Up till today Castonzo and Cherilus actually have had a good overall year, Thornton is learning, Satele and Mcglynn will eventually be replaced...Likely in the offseason

[FicmanS]

This O line is in trouble, HORRIBLE game absolutely HORRIBLE game...  Poor excuse for a pro team offensive line

[Malakai432]

Thomas and Dwayne Allen would've helped blocking in general so much, they were huge, absolutely MASSIVE losses.

[masterlock]

I think Allen has the second best pair of hands on the team next to Reggie, and that is what we are missing now even more than his blocking.

Indeed, he was poised for a very good year. Very unfortunate injury.

[OLD FAN MAN]

Wake up and play.

Don't forget Thornton's whiff that got D. Brown tackled in the backfield

[ColtJ82]

Yeah, McGlynn was pathetic at times today. His best block of the day was actually on himself. He fell down coming out to block on a screen pass and the guy he should have blocked made the tackle. He is absolutely horrendous at blocking down/away from initial contact at the line of scrimmage.
