I think he has a fine coming, for sure. I don't think he meant to kick the dude when he went up, but he could have put his foot down.

Yeah. That's why I think it was dirty. Definitely could've been avoided.

 

And isn't this the 2nd time he's hit a punter hard? Does he have some kinda grudge? haha

Im giving Brown the benefit of the doubt. By all accounts he's a nice, classy guy. I see no reason why he would intentionally kick a punter in the face.

Seems to be a case of people looking at a play as if it was in slow-motion and pretending these guys aren't going at crazy fast speeds.

This. All he was looking to do was hurdle him. Nothing deliberate about it, IMO.

This is what happens when guys try to jump over dudes on occasion.  Sometimes it works, sometimes they get body slammed and failing that, and sometiems it ends up in this awkward mid-air scissor kick.  It's simple physics.

 

On a serious note, I don't think he should have been ejected, and I don't think it was intentional.  I think he just committed to jumping, realized it wouldn't work, and it resulted in an awkward play. But I question anyone's sense of humor if they didn't find this to be hilarious.

It looks funny on the slow mo, like he's trying to ninja kick the guy but at full speed I just don't see it being deliberate.  Just something that happens when you try to hurdle someone and fail.  Shouldn't have been fined or flagged IMO.  

 

Besides if you where trying to hurt a punter, there are a lot easier ways of doing it then jumping up and attempting some ridiculous ninja kick.  If he wanted to hurt him he would lower his head as he was running at him and ran into his stomach or chest with his helmet.

      Chris Ballard on Pat McAfee Show about the draft

      By Restinpeacesweetchloe · Posted

      There won’t be anyone to sign if they want that long. But they will probably see what happens in OTA. Personally I don’t think colts have a time line. They are on diggs and Simmons schedule. It’s up to them when they feel like signing.

      Colts select Adonai Mitchell WR Texas (Merged)

      By Two_pound · Posted

      I watched the Kansas St.-Texas game from 2023 today and Mitchell was outstanding in that one. One long td(47 yards), another long reception(37 yards) and he had excellent blocks on CJ Baxters' 47 yard td run and two other excellent blocks that sprung runners for huge gains. If you had only watched the first half of that game while scouting Mitchell and saw nothing else you would have taken him in the top 10. That is how impressive he was in the first half of that game. I'll add this also, when watching Texas games from last year watch Mitchell BLOCK. I'm no scout and I don't watch 100's of hours of film, but from what I've seen of him at Georgia and his one year at Texas I don't know how he fell to number 52. Welcome to the Colts Adonai, I hope you burn up the league this year! Go Colts!

      I was referring muscle-wise not his actual weight. Compared to the start of the season where imo he looked smaller, I think he added a lot more muscle

      But he carries it well.   Honestly I doubt he’s that big now….   One would think he’s in good shape now that he’s being active for the first time in roughly 6+ months.     Im just thinking out loud….

      CJ also made comments about being glad he wasn't drafted by Indy and how Indy is boring. I know he has the nice "humble beginnings" story, but he's making himself feel like a villain early. You don't want to annoy people that might be your future coworkers or employers. It's a bad look.
