Colts @ Bills Game Day Thread

Opening Sunday of the 2015 season is finally here, Colts fans!  :)   Our Indianapolis Colts begin their 63rd regular season in the NFL, as they are in the City Of Orchard Park in Western New York State to play the Buffalo Bills.

 

This afternoon is the 68th all-time regular season meeting between the Colts and Bills,  a rivalry that began when both the Colts and Bills finished with a 17-17 tie at Baltimore Memorial Stadium, in both teams first-ever meeting since the AFL-NFL merger back on November 15, 1970.

 

Spero Dedes and Solomon Wilcotts are announcing the live TV game commentary for The NFL On CBS, seen regionally, and locally in Indianapolis on WTTV CBS Channel 4, live on HD.

 

Bob Lamey, our 'Voice Of The Colts,' and former Colts player Jim Sorgi are also announcing the live radio game play-by-play and analysis, simulcast on flagship stations WFNI ESPN SportsRadio The Fan 1070AM, and WLHK Country 98.1FM, and the Colts/Vectren Radio Network.

 

Showers and cloudy skies at 59 degrees, feels like 56 degrees, is the local game cast inside Ralph Wilson Stadium, for the 1:05PM Eastern Standard Time kickoff, along with 35% precipitaton, 51% humidity, and western winds at 15 miles per hour.

 

NO injuries, and hope our Colts can spoil new Bills Head Coach Rex Ryan's regular season  debut in Buffalo, and overcome the inclement weather. GO COLTS!!!!!

Maybe it's the film that the rookies have shown, but I'm excited about them. Grigs always talks about how he bases a player of film. Offensively, I'm excited to see the vet run the pigskin. Bradshaw got 4 yards a pop and was a good receiving back. Gore should be as good or better, even if he is older.

Both fan bases are convinced they will win.  Both have sneaking doubts. It should be a great game.  From the first offensive snap, the Colts fans will see if the offensive line is really in trouble.  The Bills will discover if their defense really is great, as they hope.  Can the Colt rookies on the D-line stop the run?  Is Tyrod Taylor the answer? We are all going to find out soon.

Good luck to your Colts! Wish I could watch that game live -- should be a good one.

We're stuck with Browns@Jets where I am.

Better than KC vs Hou and in the afternoon Ten vs TB.....like literally everything around me gets both the good games with Colts and then Broncos later....uggh. Just have to listen to Sirius.

Let's see some bold predictions for today's game.  I'll give you 2.

 

1. Frank Gore has multiple TDs today

2. Tyrod Taylor outrushes the Colts RBs

 

But Colts still win!

Taylor throws for the same amount of TDs as Luck (1) and Gore outrushes Mccoy...thats mine...Colts win a slobbernocker.

    • Can you expend on this, why do you think that?
    • No, but I would love that! Is that true? Where did you hear that? I don't think that will happen. I heard that trading Herbert would result in a huge dead cap hit for the Chargers, that would make it nearly impossible to keep or sign other players.
