Oh i am very knowledgeable... But I don't complain the sky is falling until the game and season is over. A ugly win looks the same as a pretty W same with L... Rather then complaining why not go and root for another team, I hear Denver is taking BandWagoners

It's not that the sky is falling, but how can a team come out of the clubhouse every week so ill-prepared?  You can't continue to play uphill every week.  The game plan can't continue to be lets see what we did wrong in the first half and figure out how to change it in the second half.  How about a little game-planning before halftime.

This team needs to learn how to 1) stay healthy for crying out loud, 2) get rid of guys who cannot produce, 3) get back some draft selections, 4) get rid of Pep, 5) learn to start a game right!!!

This colts team is damaged and cannot produce. They are missing their starting TE, WR, RB, OL, DL, FB etc this is ridiculous. Why are so many starters hurt? That is bad preparation for games, and lack of focus and knowledge, and that equals bad coaching.

Some of you "fans" are spoiled rotten. We had Peyton Manning, years of wins, and two Super Bowl trips. Then one year of bad football, drafted a qb most teams search decades for, and make the playoffs. Now we are leading our division late in the year and people are non-stop complaining and crying. Are we a great team? No. But it could be so much worse. Stay positive and be thankful. Makes me embarrassed more to listen to our so called "fans" then watching us get blown out of the water.

I would agree.. it doesn't matter who we play against we are never in control at the start of the game.  Even Jacksonville was getting the best of the Colts at the start.  You got to blame coaching.. the first half game plans have been poor to say the least.

Been a Colt fan for over 15 yrs. When this season is done and we look back on Grigson choices, people might have more appreciation for what Polian did year after year.

 

 

I was no Polian fan but can't argue with the above. 

 

1) Draft looks from bad to terrible.

 

2) Free agents money doesn't look well spent. Luckily we can opt out of a bunch of those contracts.

 

3) All the trading looks mostly bad.

 

4) Hiring of Pep.

So... I'm not a good fan because I'm not afraid to say my team is playing bad?

Seriously what's wrong with this defense? It's like they don't want to show up in the first this is very aggravating as fan we need a better start ya'll keep talking about injuries but aside from Reggie and toler who else is hurt? Conner is good but he's not a starter this defense is looking like that weak tampa 2 defense which was horrible

I love these fans who think if your critical of your team that somehow makes you less of a fan.This is not a team playing well, and when you have high hopes and your team has been smoked in 2 of the last 3 games.Should we do cartwheels?Put away your pom-poms its embarrasing.

Couldn't have said it any better myself.

That's definitely part of it. This team just doesn't look like a colts team at all. Bad coaching, bad effort, fighting and head butting people... It's just bad

I agree again. I just don't want to give up yet. I feel like this team has and can do good things. I'm not saying they are Super Bowl contenders, but I don't think they are as bad as they have been vs stl and today.

I'm sure the reason we only won one SB was because everyone got complacent sucking the teets of the GOAT and not helping him. And what is going on. The EXACT same situation with a new QB!

      Colts OTAs Thread May 21st-23rd; May 29th-31st

      True, but I see him more as a slot guy with the other receivers we have on this team when they are all healthy.  Just my .02.

      Would you be ok with this move?

      No for me.  Alec is a cheap potential WR.  No bad can come from keeping him.

      I can see the need to improve the secondary, but Alec Pierce should be better this year, and he is so very cheap.   There is also a need for depth, as Pittman and AD Mitchell will need plays off.   I could see Pierce getting 20-30% of the snaps at either side     I am very excited by our offensive potential...... If we have health, this offense can stack up points. Our OL is very strong as well   Who do you double cover?   Last year it was Pittman   This year, with AD Mitchell AND Pittman, we will see deeper zones from our competition   When we had EDGE running the ball with our HOF WRs, Manning could dictate the play based on what the defense did.   8 Man Box?  - We will beat you deep.   4-3 defense/ Nickle?  We will run the ball   If AR5, can pick this up, we will be tough to stop.     I am SOMEWHAT excited by our defense, now that we SHOULD be able to bring more pressure.   But........   I would STILL bring in a vet at FS.......       We will probably wait until camp to do something here

      No way, we can sign a vet as good or better and still keep Pierce and see what this season brings.

      Tom Brady finally admits he knew about Deflategate...shocker..lol

      Oh ok you mean overall passing at the time as opposed to Otto personally. I gotcha. For the time he was much more active throwing then most and one of the main reasons the passing game evolved (Along with rule changes). Like some have mentioned hard to compare stats from different eras because of this so won/loss record and titles easier (Though not perfect) for comparison sake. 1 amazing fact is Graham still holds the all time record of yards per pass attempt at 8.6 despite playing in that era. The more time people spend researching him the more they come to appreciate him. He is forgotten by man, when older QB's are brought up it is usually Johnny U. who 100% deserves mention in all greatest conversations but Otto laid that groundwork.
