up the gut


OLD FAN MAN

Recommended Posts

Maybe...Maybe not. We know some players do now, Its not far fetched to think Grigson wants to get a first hand idea of what the Colts fan base is thinking when it comes to the team,

You think there's a chance that the GM is possibly reading, and will tell the coaches to stop running it up the middle because someone with cheetoh stains on his shirt typed it.

And just how do you know this?

 

Why would he? Every GM says "If you think like the fans, you'll soon be sitting with them." He has more information about any player than any of us could ever dream of having. He has an army of scouts and coaches at his disposal, why would he care about the opinion of a bunch of people who have never spent a day in pro football?

If you believe that when why do you yourself question so much he does? Just saying.

It's not about whether Grigson reads this forum or not.

 

It's about whether or not he takes what he reads here SERIOUSLY.

 

And if he does take what he reads her seriously,  then he should be fired.

 

And I say that as someone who considers himself among the biggest admirers of Grigson on this website.

 

I think the PR guy we had before Kevin Bowen,  who just retired,  has said Grigson is aware of what is written here.   Whether that means he reads it or is told about it was not clear.

I doubt grgson reads this forum

I'd guess the colts have interns who read the forums and put together the fan pulse on the team and concerns. Obviously it's a piece and not how they should field a team but I guarantee, they have people looking it over and giving feedback in general of the fans views. That's an easy small % of informative gathering really.

If it has to do with Football I would bet there isn't much Grig's doesn't read

please grigs no more up the gut rbs until we can get a run blocking interior line. I don't like our lg, center or rg for run blocking, they are ok for pass blocking but slow and inept at run blocking and please don't sign gore to run behind this line

How about a guy who can both run up the gut and outside? How about we get better linemen that will help running up the gut? And what if we get a guy who can't run up the gut? Opposing teams shut down the edges. And every team should have 1 guy who is a up the gut type runner. Tipton played well the few times he got the ball.

    • Thank you. You guys are too kind, but I truly appreciate the support.    Perhaps I am being too hard on myself… But my point still stands that anyone who makes it to the NFL, whether practice squad or starter, has achieved something prestigious that only a rare few ever achieve.    Over a million high schoolers play. Of those only 7.8 percent move on to play in college.    Over 80,000 people play in college. Only 0.4 percent make it to opening day in the NFL.    Only 2,016 players make it to NFL rosters. 
    • Davis had a very good rookie season after being drafted in the 2nd round out of Ohio State (I believe).   Graded in the 70’s against both the run and pass.      But his last three years have been disappointing, as he’s graded in the mid-50’s.   The reason I’m so interested in this signing, is (A) I’m sure it was heavily influenced by the new DL coach, Partridge.   And (B) we’re paying him 2/14.  I don’t recall that kind of money ever being given to a basic backup before.   Don’t think Davis is here to push Stewart, the Colts just signed him to 3/39.  That tells me the Colts defensive staff sees him differently.   I don’t know what the plan the staff has come up with for Davis, but I’m looking forward to watching it play out. 
    • What I’m reading on him the Pacers did get good value. Looks like he will need time to develop but he is in the right situation to do that. The pacers are stacking some quality young players that will prove to be more outstanding depth or assets if they choose to make a trade. Very exciting time for the team right now.  
    • I’m not a religious person, but since you’re an educator I think you’re doing Gods work!   In these crazy insane times we’re all living in you’re doing one of the toughest jobs on earth.  And you’re teaching perhaps the most difficult generation to deal with.     From a distance it feels like you’re being very unfair to you.  I’m hoping in time you’ll see yourself in a completely different light.    Someone highly thought of.  A leader in the community.  A protector of young minds.   I couldn’t admire a teacher more.
