Why The Colts Are Forever In Debt To Jim Harbaugh

[King Colt]

In Harbaughs last season the Colts tanked to 3-13 giving the Colts first pick in thedraft and that pick was Peyton Manning, thanks Jimmy! Then came Luck and only SF can match back to back good QBs with Montana then Young.

He only started 10 or 11 games that season. There was plenty of terrible to go around on that team. Lindy Infante and Bill Tobin especially

This thread is full of win....not...

Harbaugh was the main reason they were competitive in the years until his last. I liked the guy really...he was a Luck/Favre/Young type tough quarterback who was just overshadowed by Favre and Young in the 90s.

In 1997 the team actually appeared to have it back together when they knocked off the Packers then 2 more teams late to win their 3 only games. They just couldn't-not-draft Peyton.

if anything we congratulate Jim Harbaugh, if it werent for him, we wouldve never gotten Peyton!

 

Chargers would have picked him up. The Chargers pick for Leaf was more rather of leftover scraps pick.
