I haven't seen this posted anywhere, so I thought I'd put it in circulation...

 

 

Rick Jean Francois is out two to four weeks with a planter facia injury that is not supposed to be as bad as the one Bjorn Werner suffered.    Pagano speaks highly of RJF here...

Also, read on the Colts blog that Linkenbach, who filled in for McGlynn, also suffered a minor injury and will be out this week.    It's not clear who will be playing RG this week,  but it doesn't seem like McGlynn as of this writing....

 

And the hits just keep on coming.............

I still believe in these Colts, but to be quite frank, it's difficult to get hyped about anything other than winning the division.  Anything can happen, I'll be pulling for them and the whole 9 yards.  But because of all these injuries, my expectations on the post season have been shot, and thus, any desire to get my hopes up.  Sigh...

Yep. If the Colts were a stock, I would've sold out my shares weeks ago. This could still be a dangerous darkhorse riding into the post season, poised to take out a "better" team and send them home. Not really counting on anything beyond a possible game 1 upset.

Not sure if you noticed, but Pagano speaks highly of EVERY player he is coaching...the exaggerates the living daylights out of his description of his players so much that his credibility is greatly diminished.  You need to take what Pagano says with a grain of salt...actually make that a pound of salt...perhaps several pounds of salt.

I just laugh at him now in his pressers when he talks about a player.

You and I see Pagano very differently.    Doubt we're going to find much common ground on that topic.

 

So,  I'll simply leave it with agreeing to disagree........

I charted RJF in this game. I had him +6 against the run (17 plays, 6 positive, 0 negative), -1 against the pass (11 plays, 1 positive, 2 negative). That's a pretty strong game.

 

This kind of charting is always subjective. If I think he won a matchup, he gets a positive. If I think he lost a matchup, he gets a negative. If the matchup was a wash, it's a 0. Someone else might get a different result from watching the same plays; 'tis the inherent issue with taking PFF's ratings at faace value.

 

Just for whatever it's worth.

You can disagree with someone's comments all day long...it doesn't really make you right or agreeable.  All it really does is sets yourself on an island...and its your word versus Pagano's, or PFFs, or whomever your source is.

 

I guess what I'm trying to say is...while i'ts okay to disagree...you play with a different consequence when you call yourteam's coach's credibility into question.

      Chris Ballard: Redfining what Success means in the NFL

      By John Hammonds · Posted

      Although I agree that 2017's Quincy Wilson was a bust, and that 2019's Ben Banogu was Ballard's ultimate bust pick, 2016's TJ Wilson was picked by GM Ryan Grigson, not by Ballard.

      If there are no more injuries then it's probably going to be Harrison, Cross, and Blackmon.

      Chris Ballard: Redfining what Success means in the NFL

      Hey Smonroe good to see you again,   Buckle up for the wildest ride of the Colts' training camp this year. So get this: Anthony Richardson, our once-heralded franchise quarterback hopeful, has taken a detour from throwing touchdowns to chasing them as a defensive end. Yeah, I'm serious. It's like watching a superhero trade in his cape for a pair of cleats.   Remember when Richardson was supposed to be the next Manning or Luck? Now he's out there, trading playbook pages for defensive schemes and praying his raw athleticism can translate to sacking quarterbacks instead of being one. Life comes at you fast, folks. I'm on the sidelines, and Richardson looks like he's still wondering if someone's pranking him. Meanwhile, Laitu Latu, the defensive behemoth, is showing him the ropes with all the subtlety of a bull in a china shop. "Come on, Richardson, channel that quarterback precision into tackling!" Latu bellows, as if Richardson's secretly been holding back.   After practice, I catch Richardson in the locker room, staring at his battered playbook like it's the Rosetta Stone. The guy looks lost, but you gotta give him credit – he's trying to morph into a defensive beast under Latu's tutelage. Who knows, maybe he'll discover his inner J.J. Watt next.   Fast forward to game day, and the announcer's like, "And now, the moment you've all been waiting for: Anthony 'The Quarterback Turned Defensive Dynamo' Richardson!" The crowd's buzzing with curiosity, half-expecting him to call an audible and throw the first-ever defensive Hail Mary.   Surprisingly, Richardson doesn't completely embarrass himself. Sure, he's stumbling through reads and tackles like he's reading a foreign language, but he manages to make a few plays that even Latu would nod approvingly at. It's like watching a midlife crisis turn into a midgame surprise.   So here's to Anthony Richardson, the quarterback who found himself on the other side of the line of scrimmage. Who knows, maybe this season will be the comeback story to end all comeback stories. Or maybe we'll just get more memes than tackles. Either way, it's gonna be one heck of a ride.   Keep grinding, AKB

      I'm not certain if we are bringing in another safety. Do you understand now?????? The other guy thought we would. I said I'm not certain

      Funny. I created a thread a while back that completely discredits this notion that he’s a running back…    He’s a pocket passer. Who runs on designed calls. Check the tape.
