I honestly under estimated him by far, my goodness whens the last time a colts QB had a 300yd game?.... great game by him, this game was lost by the defense... if it wasnt for the defense the colts could have won this game... and maybe that turnover by carter helped as well..... :applause: gotta clap for the guy

unless they were really playing off us that bad in the fourth..a couple of those passes were really nice - equally good catches. I hadnt felt that level of excitement in any of our plays all season. I was hopeful for the onside.

made some nice throws, good to see peyton helping out alot, play before the second garcon td, peyton said something to him, guess it worked. And he showed emotion, when he threw the pick he was ticked, and came back from it which is good. Start him, he did better than painter. Gotta watch it against the ravens though...

Me too.

Today was quit ok. I hope he will keep his good performance.

We'll see next games... 2 or 3 more games, and it will turn out who is better, Orlovsky or Painter.

if you take all the good of painter, Orlovsky still win in total..

Wow, a QB that actually HITS receivers with the ball. Half of Painter's receptions recently were due to terrific receptions by the receivers. Last week, 1/2 way thru the 3rd qtr and he was 2 for 9?? This change should have happened 3-4 games ago and we would have 1 or 2 wins by now. Glad to see it finally happened.

Oh, BIG props to Dan O for staying in the pocket and taking the hits today too. He took some MAJOR shots and hung right in there for the entire game. There's our QB for the rest of the year!

Grain of salt ... Garbage time results should not be over estimated. He certainly looked better than Painter, though.

I doubt that was garbage time, Dan was doing that the whole game... the pats pass defense is horrible though so your right it should be taken with a grain of salt but i think the colts have a chance of winning every game on the schedule now because of him. Much more accurate and decisive than painter.

If I'm not mistaken, he looked better than Painter in pre-season. i still don't know how Painter won the backup job.

I know most of his stats were in garbage time but he really spread the ball around well. Look at that 16 play drive we had, we converted like 4 3rd downs with dan. Curtis painter wouldve converted 4 3rd downs the entire game. Hats off to dan he looks like a legit starter with weapons around him (something he didnt have in DET)

    • AR has similar if not superior physical traits of AL and I just saw something on his ability to recall is similar to PM.  
    • Ballard does have thick skin.  You just choose to not to see it that way.      Ballard is the face and voice of the franchise.  Irsay’s health does not make him an effective public face of the franchise.  Frank was OK, Steichen less so.   So Ballard does the lion share of teams PR.    And Ballard has always said he’d rather the fans be angry than be apathetic.  Shows they care.  Of course, you know this but choose not to acknowledge it because it undercuts your distorted view of CB.   I don’t know what CBs relationship is with Kevin Bowen who I like.   So let’s say it’s complicated.   But on balance I think Ballard has a good relationship with the local media.  I’d be surprised if he didn’t.  He is loved by national media.  He’s got a personality and a sense of humor.  I’m sorry you don’t care for it.    Of course you have yet to acknowledge that you and Moose literally said that Ballard didn’t know enough about Mitchell to know if he was a good guy.   For a man in your profession, THAT is a whopper.  Why you thought that is a mystery?   By the way, hope you notice that at least twice I’ve now said you’re smarter than you show.  There’s a compliment in there somewhere if you let yourself see it.    But I think you’ve painted yourself into a corner.  You come across as someone who’d rather be right about Ballard being bad even if it means the Colts do poorly than be wrong and have the Colts do well.    The reason Irsay hasn’t fired Ballard for the teams record is because Irsay approved of what CB was doing in real time.   Believe what you want but Irsay has done the GM job himself so he knows how it goes.  And he has chosen to keep Ballard.  Unless you don’t like Irsay too, you might want to consider that.  Life is more fun being optimistic than negative.     Sorry this went so long.  
    • I think it’s backwards.  MPJ is definitely Reggie based on skill set and tendencies.  AD can become Marvin with his explosiveness.   Raimann - I think he’ll be Castonzo.  Ol reliable, underappreciated, majority won’t realize how good he was until he’s gone.   AD - if he becomes what we think he can, Ocho Cinco.  Cocky, competitive, but will perform his butt off and will dance every chance he gets lol   Jelani Woods - Jimmy Graham, fast for his size, walking mismatch.
    • speaking of which, I’m about to win some good money.  I bet that brown would be FMVP, the Celtics would win the series, and it last at least 4 games.
