I will say Richardson played his butt off tonight. Bradshaw was good too. Very optimistic on those two.

Fleener wasn't very good, and Allen didn't do well til later then turned it on.

Thank God Wayne in ok!

Hilton needs to sleep with a football in his hands again.

Castanzo and Cherilus were great all night.

I wish we would've done more screens and QB rollouts.

I don't think we used our personnel in the best way tonight in the passing game.  We should have gotten Nicks much more involved in the game.  Also I think we went away from the running game too fast.  Trent was making good gains out there.  I'm very optimistic about our defense, to shut those guys down in the second half like we did still not being able to generate much of a pass rush leaves me feeling pretty good about what things will look like when Mathis gets back and Newsome gets some more experience.  I think our run defense is going to be up there with the best of them as long as everyone is healthy.

Not nearly as bad as it could have been. When we couldnt get pressure on Manning though, that put our D in a tough spot. You give that guy 5-7 seconds to throw and he's gonna shred any defense. Unless they some really really special secondary. To hold em to 31 when it looked like they were gonna get 30 before the half, I'll take it. On offense it seems were back to our same trend.. slow starts. I think Pep is trying to run an offense here that were just not built and equipped to run. And I hate to say it but if he keeps it up, were gonna struggle. Realying on having a whole bunch of comeback wins like last year isnt gonna cut it and come playoffs if we make it there, it will bite us. We need to go pass first and then try and run the ball some off that. Get the defense stretched out a little.

It was a blow out in the 1st half, we came back mainly because Denver went into prevent defense. It was a good comeback but you can't consistently win like this starting off slow. Eventually, it's going to catch up and it did tonight.

They didn't play prevent at all in the game

      That weightlifting aged him pretty good as far as his back.  I wish him well post-surgery.  I think he's going to be feeling much better!!!  We need his leadership!!!

      Colts Select Laiatu Latu Edge UCLA

      By GoColts8818 · Posted

      I doubt any of us here have spent more time studying the health issues of Latu than the Colts have.  If they are comfortable with it that’s good enough for me but that’s just me.

      BREAKING: NFL loses HUGE in Sunday Ticket Lawsuit

      By Yoshinator · Posted

      This makes me so happy. It's Karma for all the lies and deception the NFL has put out since recently. They supposedly care about player safety, so lets add a week to the regular season with plans to add more. All these international games where teams have to travel more and the fans get less home games. All the games now that are going to be on various streaming services off TV where people can't watch them with their family. The blatant terrible refereeing the last few years in order to rig games and expecting people not to notice. The Taylor Swift crap this last year where they sold their soul.   It's all about money. That's all the NFL cares about. We are trash to them. The players are trash to them unless they make the NFL money. I hope the NFL has to pay out $14B. This would be exactly what they deserve for ruining this sport to the point where it's almost unwatchable now.

      2024 NBA, Pacers and all NBA talk

      By Yoshinator · Posted

      This aged like fine wine. After this happened, I bet $1 on the Lakers to win the NBA Finals next year. Get $31 dollars if they do. I'm buying into the conspiracy theory that the league will give it to Lebron and Bronny. Also think the Lakers will make a move or two in FA.
