This is a great L.A. Times article about Chuck Pagano and a little about the Colts willingness to keep fighting!

I'm glad Indy hired not just a good coach, but a great man which is also very important! Even though the players are older they still look to their coaches as "role models" in a certain way!

Why does it feel like all the haters and negative people come around during the off-season? Cant wait for the season to start and we can get back to normal conversations, versus people just dropping in on a convo to be pests and leave.

Here is what I don't understand, and this is a general statement not directed at one person in particular, but if the only thing you have to say about your team is negative all the time why sign up for the forum? Better yet why waste your time following them it's clearly bringing you no joy? To each his I own I guess and everyone is entitled to an opinion but I just don't get why people waste their time on something that is clearly not good enough for them.

Again to be clear the above is general and not directed at any one person and for sure not you your post just made me think of that.

Yeah, go root for the Browns if all you want to do is be negative. At least then you'll be in like-minded company who all have valid reasons to complain.

 It is in the sports section.

 Don`t look at the scoreboard, just keep fighting.

 THAT, is the essense of  NFL Football. Fighting with and for the Men around you.

  And our Coach P is a heck of a Leader!

I agree the best thing a coach can do is to get his players motivated and to play as a team and coach P does that.

The only time I see comments from people like that is when someone quotes them. Don't you wish you could use the "ignore" button in real life?

Luckily, most people (like you) are respectful, interesting, and knowledgeable. We all don't have to agree, but we don't have to be jerks either.

Thank you for the nice words at the end.

 

I agree our message board is pretty darn smart.  You have to know your stuff here and can't just toss things out there or someone will challenge you on it which is perfectly fine as long as people keep it civil, in fact I love that about this place that you can talk football with highly knowledgeable people and we don't have to agree.  It's the people that think that only their view point matters or makes things personal when they don't need to be that annoy me but like you said that's what the ignore button is for.

    • Besides, if we wanted to bring up Irsay-sponsored decisions vs Ballard-sponsored decisions, we could always bring up Jeff Saturday.  😉 
    • Oh, Dear God….          Here’s why Irsay doesn’t ask for a refund.  Because he’s an involved owner and has signed off on every major decision the team has made.   Irsay doesn’t learn about the Colts from reading the Indy Star or watching/listening to local news.      He was in meetings with Ballard and Reich and agreed with most of the decisions.   As for money back, well Frank got fired and so did a number of assistants.  So they paid a price.  
    • My thinking behind was if Smith is that good at RT he must be even better at RG. Out of the 5 spots RG is our weakest. But yea your right I'm not a coach or coordinator. Someone asked my opinion and I gave it. So Freeland is still my answer.
    • Boston is a -225 to win the series. I am putting $200 on Dallas to win $450 = total payout $650. If I lose, I just lose $200.    -225 is mindboggling. I expected something like -100. I have to take Dallas and those ridiculous odds.   @NFLUp, you said Tatum is better than Doncic. On what planet? Doncic is better and it isn't even debatable, take your green glasses off . Tatum is a top 10 player in the league, but Doncic is top 5. Also, as great as Holiday is on defense, there is no 1 guy in the league that can stop Uncle Drew. Good luck with that. If Boston wins, Tatum will have to play like an MVP - I don't see it, Brown won MVP of the East Finals. It will also be because of players like White, Horford making 3s out of their butt - that is possible. Brown will get his and Dallas will be fine with that, can't stop everyone. Porzingis is good but inconsistent - look at his history on every team he's been on, relying on him to be hero is a stretch. Dallas will win this in 6. Mark Cuban also said this his last year owning the team, he will go out in style. The narrative is there.   I have been pretty good at predicting these playoffs before each series started. I had the Celtics beating the Heat and Cavs, had the Mavs winning every series they have been in. I had the Pacers beating the Bucks and Knicks as well. The only series that surprised me, I had Denver over Minnesota, that still even went 7. Originally, I even had Boston beating the Pacers but switched it at the last second just because I am a Pacer fan. I didn't bet on it though because I knew Boston had the better team.
    • NBA is full of parity, there has been a different World Champion every year since the 2018 season:   2018: West Finals = Warriors over Rockets East Finals = Cavs over Celtics World Champion = Warriors   2019:  West Finals = Warriors over Blazers East Finals = Raptors over Bucks World Champion = Raptors   2020: (Covid Bubble Season) West Finals = Lakers over Nuggets East Finals = Heat over Celtics World Champion = Lakers   2021: West Finals = Suns over Clippers East Finals = Bucks over Hawks World Champion = Bucks   2022: West Finals = Warriors over Mavericks East Finals = Celtics over Heat World Champion = Warriors   2023: West Finals = Nuggets over Lakers East Finals = Heat over Celtics World Champion = Nuggets   2024: West Finals = Mavericks over Timberwolves East Finals = Celtics over Pacers World Champion = ? to be determined.   Italic = Symbolizes Conference Champion Bold = Symbolizes World Champion Underline = Pacers made a Final 4
