....... But he doesn't do anything for the team

Least Moncrief actually makes an impact in the games

Colt probably is about to be a backup again this season if he even makes the team

He's a contributor on Special Teams.

Aka replaceable

Just don't like how this warrants a video and article when it's not even guaranteed he'll be on the team come September

Colt's role as a Colt is absolutely irrelevant to this piece. The guy showed incredible athleticism/ups. The fact that you don't think it deserves any attention because he's not a key player is ridiculous.

Wait a gall dern minute here...

I just watched a Woody and Wesley movie that proclaimed this an impossible feat...

It really does look impossible, though... Anderson isn't even really built like someone who you'd think could jump over your head...

 So what if he is a back up player? There are 22 starters so that means there are 31 back up players. Why do you insist on spewing negative comments? Sometimes your comments suggest your not really a Colt fan, just a pretender.

"we already knew that Indianapolis Colts safety Colt Anderson was a great athlete from his 81 career tackles" < is that supposed to be sarcasm...

 

maybe its 81 career ST tackles

Looked fake to me. Possibly a joke? Something looked off here. 

 

I wondered why you couldn't see him before the jump as well.

 

 

It's still impressive, but I just wondered was he running then jumping? 

 

 

 

Either way white men CAN jump!! lol

It looked ....odd. There's a 'skip' in his motion after he left the ground, appearing as if he didn't make the jump, appearing as if his momentum was reckoning him to fall backward. 

 

The fact that his probable hand hold is out of frame makes me question this as nothing but a joke response to Moncrief's impressive leap. It looks to me like he grabbed something with his hands that is above and out of frame. 

 

That being said, if I tried this, I would've collapsed during the running start phase. The only jump that would occur thereafter would be the paramedics attempting to jump-start my heart.

Colt is a great player. He is super fast and makes a ton of plays on special teams. I can't believe he isn't put in to play safety or split time with someone.

 

When did this happen?     When did Colt Anderson become a "great player"...??

 

He had 16 special teams tackles last year.    The figure used in the story (87) is his career total.

 

I think he's got no better than a 50-50 shot to make the roster this year.

 

Other players in his way.....   Adams, Lowery, Geathers,  Guy,  McDonald.    That's 5.

 

And it's not even clear that 5 will make the 53 man roster....

 

I'm not saying he's a bad player....    but I think he falls far short of being a "great player".....

 

Just sayin.....

That's an everyday risk given their profession. Plyometrics are a key group of exercises, especially for professional athletes.

Really? Basically slowing the frames down then speeding them up at the apex of his jump makes it look fake? Two functions a monkey could perform in basic video editing.

ACL's don't get torn from walking/running and jumping... :facepalm:

 

 

looked like a simple camera trick.  Perhaps he was jumping down and rhey reversed it and put the voice on later.

 

haha:facepalm:  He jumps from a completely different location than where he lands when coming off the stack... There is no trick..

It was coach speak. But he really is a pretty decent player even though he plays special teams.

      Ok that's a good point man. I'm curious about your opinion on this one. What if you had a guy like Okereke doing James Farrior like things? You've got a good FS. I see both sides of this argument. It's an interesting conundrum. Solid push every single down with a little trickery. Also if you have a solid running game it makes play calling so much easier and whoever you put in there is going to have an easier job. Just theorizing man.

      I think Flus simply needs to blitz more to be honest. Between the lack of blitzing and stunting, and our soft zone, I just can't envision our pass rush getting a lot better even with an upgrade at DE. Not blitzing/stunting let's the OL settle in, and makes their jobs much easier. And playing soft zone allows easy pass after easy pass, and almost makes it impossible for coverage sacks. Just not sure why we stay so conservative.    On RO, I'd have to look at those last 4-5 opponents last year. If he played at a high level all year that's one thing, but he played mediocre for 4.5-4.75 years, and looks fantastic only in the last 4-5 games? The situation just needs more context and digging.

      No doubt any move is a gamble of some kind or another. If its an older guy, is the player injury prone or on the downhill side of his career? If a younger guy, will he still perform with serious coin in his pocket for the first time? But in the end, you have to look at recent production. If the guy has a good rep for being a hard worker and improved his play such that he's become an impact player, he's worth the gamble, IMO. Maybe not for a contract longer than 3 years, but I like taking a shot at an ascending talent.    More importantly, if you believe, as I do, that the defense HAS to get much better at rushing the passer, especially since our D coordinator seems to have a serious allergy to blitzing, then the push to find that missing piece has to take its place front and center over other needs.

      This kid could make things really interesting and turn that flat-butt 4-3 into something really special with corners who can press. The scheme could be really sneaky good with that personnel.
