The only way for the Colts to beat the Pats is smash mouth FB

Agree with the running game because you have to smash mouth the guy in front of you to

blow open a running lane, but disagree with more weapons. All of the weapons in the world

won't help if there is no threat of a running game and they drop defenders back on our

"weapons".

We already have a pretty good stable of receivers and tight ends.

Well, I said "more weapons" cause I'm assuming Reggie hangs it up and Nicks is walking this offseason so that's why. But the running game and defense should be the focal point of this offseason.

The word of the offseason should be "Trenches"

How this forum has "Question of the Day".... Grigson & Co. need a " Word of the Offseason "

Agree in red but if Brady and company can beat us by 35 with Gronk and a bunch of no names

at receiver then maybe we should take note. I believe cap space should be spent in the trenches

and on defense.

Ravens are smashmouth cause Flacco is an okay QB. Only time he's "top flight" is in the playoffs. Reg. Season Flacco is borderline average honestly

We have a QB that's top flight 9/10 times (1 time being against NE) so let it run through him but compliment him with a solid running game. Not asking for the Seahawks running game, but at least something to make the defense somewhat respect it

Ya, but boy wouldn't if be nice to have the Seahawks running game?

Start left to the right side

Godser Cherlius: He was drafted to fit the Lions zone blocking scheme in 08.

So 3 out of the 5 starting lineman fit into a zone blocking scheme. Mewhort and Thornton can fit into a power scheme. Now we wonder why we struggle to run a power blocking scheme.

The Colts gave up on the concept of a fast light defense about four years ago and the word was strength and beef instead. More smash mouth is good if it controlled and order Luck to stop congratulating guys that sack him, that is plain stupid and I am certain his team mates feel the same.

    • Link to article   This guy likes what how Ballard has built the Colts. The Colts are far from being mediocre. JMO
    • I almost spit my coffee out reading this a few times, lol!  I love sarcasm and I especially love it when there is some truth to it!  Well played Sir!
    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him.
