This thread proves my old theory that some are more interested in being right than they are in the Colts doing well or not right. 

 

As for TY he has been one of the most beloved players since he got here and one of the good things you can take away from today was him and Luck seemed to keep establishing their chemistry.  I would just like to see more of it before they are down three scores.

Exactly, seemed to me that he was only really targeted later in the game. Wish Luck would just forget DHB was there sometimes and just target Hilton.

Well they did a good job getting the ball in his hands on the first drive but then it went away till later in the game.  I don't understand why they don't do more to get the ball in TY's hands early on quick passes and let him make plays.  He's the perfect type of player to attack all out blitzes with because he can make things happen on his own.

Also i think most colts fans had a similar opinion of Hilton when he arrived or midway through last season. Think it was mainly non colts fans who didn't think he was good enough really.

Colts fans were high on him on draft night.  I remember people being thrilled we moved up to get him when some questioned it.  Like I said he's pretty much been beloved by most here since he got here.  Does he have some who question? Sure but heck some still question Luck so you are always going to have that.

Exactly! Outside of Reggie i'd say he is our best weapon on offense. The fact we stopped targeting him made no sense to me. Hopefully over the last few weeks the staff has caught on to the idea that Hilton is the best reciever and to target him more rather than DHB.

Exactly, i don't really know much about college football but when i saw we drafted him i looked him up on youtube and i just got giddy. Thought this guy is going to be great for us. Knew he'd be the one to step up when Reggie went down and at the start of the season was actually annoyed we got DHB just because he wouldn't be no 2.

 

Don't think today was the best example to use to defend Luck though to those who doubt him.

once again proved doubters wrong today. he's gonna be a great #1 for colts.

Dear God...

Everyone wants Hilton to have success. He is going to be great in the league - it does not take a football savant to figure that out. But can you possibily grasp the concept of a true # 1 vs. the best option they have right now? There is a difference.

TY is a legit number one. 

 

 

Luck missed him on a sure TD. And he stumbled on a long gainer that could have been a second TD pass. 

 

 

We just have to find better pieces to compliment the passing game. But we have found our main guy for the next 10 years.

      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.

      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.
