Anthony Costanzo: Yay or Nay

[1yrdandacloudofdust]

He has his moments, but I just don't see it consistently. Is it time to look for his replacement and let him walk after next yr if he's still inconsistent?

[MTC]

Yay.

He has been improving every year.

[1yrdandacloudofdust]

Yay.

He has been improving every year.

He eas better last yr imo

[NewColtsFan]

One more vote for yay.....

[Smonroe]

No, Left OTs grow on trees.  We can easily find a replacement.  It's not like it's an important position on the O line.

 

Ugoh what I mean?

[backshoulderfade]

Yay. Definitely above avergage, even if not one of the best 10-15 in the league. Id rather have good players all across the line than a great LT.

[jameszeigler834]

Yay he is just too inconsistent.

[jameszeigler834]

Maybe we could switch the two OT that we have around put GC on the left and put AC on the right and see if that works thoughts.

[USAFHoosier]

He is one of our best offensive lineman...

[Blueblazes]

It would be good to know how he graded out on PFF ratings. I would say his range is average to above average. On the other hand, Gosder exceeded my expectations on the right side.

[bavanlan]

Cost?

[jvan1973]

Yay he is just too inconsistent.

Yay is a vote for keeping him. FYI

[gacker65]

IMO, AC has improved each year, even when the rest of the O-line was bad .

 

My vote is give him another year.

[beavis]

I think if that whole line doesn't improve a lot this year you have to consider taking drastic steps, like a whole new line.

[snowmobile]

give him one more year then vote

[Bravo]

Yay! We need to worry more about the inside part of our O-Line anyway!

[SteelCityColt]

There would be no sense at all in doing anything in this off season, a decision for next year. 

[NewEra]

Yay!

[Flash7]

He's one of our best O-linemen and has been for years. Look at any left tackle and watch them every game. You'll notice that they all give up sacks and pressure. There isn't one that's perfect, which I feel is the expectation of some fans.

I vote yay.

[AntonMcG]

I vote meh.

[adamthyst]

Yay, he improves each year but is inconsistent, but I'd take him over some of the OL we have right now.

[COLTS449]

Yay. He isn't the problem on the O Line, and he has continued to improve.

[Smash Mouth]

We can live with him.  He might not become a Pro Bowl player but he's not the problem.  The Colts can win with him and need to focus on the interior of the OL right now.

[lollygagger8]

He's inconsistent yes, but still an above average LT. Plus he plays board games with our QB. He's not going anywhere. 

[rittdk01]

Are you kidding?  The MIDDLE of the o line was the problem. 

 

Get real guys stop posting about getting rid of every player but Luck.

[jmac_48]

He is one of our best offensive lineman...

That is not saying much at this point... NO?

 

Hate to be negative, but get some talented players on the interior and the Tackles might look a whole lot better.

[a06cc]

Inconsistent isn't my words for him. I'd play his contract out this season. I've got into it with people on the forum about him. I'm not going to go any further or say how I really feel about him.

[PeterBowman]

Yay

 

he might not be dominant, but he's still very solid. His inconsistency is what's keeping him from being elite right now. Improve the interior line and this could be a very scary o-llne in the future.

 

 

in hindsight, glad the Colts didn't draft Gabe Carimi

[throwing BBZ]

Yay. Definitely above avergage, even if not one of the best 10-15 in the league. Id rather have good players all across the line than a great LT.

 

You see he would have to be in the top 15 to be above average. lol

He is actually more like 25  or worse at pass blocking (considered more important than run blocking for LT`s)

and was less effective as a run blocker than his 1st 2 years. FIRE The Line Coach!

 He will Remain slow afoot, play too upright, (TOO TALL?) lack lower strength because of his builld. Just the way it is.

 Do you lock in a very mediocre LT for how much $$$?

 Andrew can hardly do a 5 step drop without Castonzo and HIS MAN meeting at Andrew. Few here even GET THAT! Homers!

  Is that the life for your $20+M QB? Not that he isn`t a nice guy like Samson and McGlynn and Link. Good grief!

[braveheartcolt]

Great theatre there Smonroe........well played. That deserves a Tony Award....

[Nesjan3]

lol, he is our best oline man, Cherilus is our most expensive player for 5 years so everyone should jump on his bandwagon whether they want to or not, that being sayd AC is the only line man who has proven he can be a starter, so a big whopping yay for me cause we cant afford a new LT when we need a whole new rest of the oline

[Valpo2004]

He's not a star but he's playing just fine.  Too many other needs on this team to start thinking about replacing him.

 

I wouldn't say he's our best this year, GC would take that distinction.  But if you don't count Donald Thomas (because he was out most of the year), AC is our 2nd best OL.

 

We just need to shore things up in the middle of the offensive line.

[Smonroe]

Great theatre there Smonroe........well played. That deserves a Tony Award....

 

Good one.

 

I almost used to feel sorry for him, it's hard to replace a guy like Glenn.  Expectations were high.

 

AC is a very good OT who improves each year.  I'm not sure what people who voted No are thinking, do they understand that you have to replace him? 

[Horse Shoe Heaven]

I say yay he improves every year with this year being his best if the trend continues with improvement he might be well above average next year. I think his play this year was above average. he seemed to wear down a little near the end of the season. He was healthy all year NICE!

[JoshPhilpot]

Yay.

[John Waylon]

Eh. 

 

He's no Tarik Glenn, but he's not tony ugoh either... 

[Pegs]

Lets give him 1 more year. If he doesn't show us Pro Bowl material next year then we should consider trading or releasing him.

[Le Neon]

Yays have it, motion passed!

Someone let Grigson and Pagano know. And Castonzo too. Let the kid tell his family he made it.

[BOTT]

Solid player....that's about it

[Gavin]

Keep him, He is not great but we will have much bigger shoes to fill come next year, He was solid this year overall:

 

 

Wayne

Freeman

 

 

are both FA's
