Matt Hasselbeck Appreciation Thread (Merge)

[RockThatBlue]

What a game by him. Tough as nails.

[chad hugo]

Hasselbeck right now...

 

[Jim H.]

Spot on.  Other than the secondary..who finally caused that interception...the team played pretty stout.  JJ who?  Jadaveon what??

[TKnight24]

The GOAT

[peytonmanning18]

This is why you keep a good backup, to get wins like this.

[Moncrief]

Kevin Garnett "Anything is possible!"

 

MH is awesome. How many other teams can have their backup do as good as him

[Iancolts]

Matt has earned his paycheck no doubt!! Shows you how important having such a good back QB!!

Best backup in the league right now!!!

 

Only backup in the league with 100 starts 

[pgt_rob]

Hasselbeck, much respect to that man. Pure class act on the field. Well earned win.

[Iancolts]

It's seems like Matt doesn't like the lime light so much. I kind of see it in his interview. I bet you guys anything when Luck comes back Matt will be happy!

[RockThatBlue]

That last pass took balls and he nailed it.

Actually,  there's one more....

 

Michael Vick.

 

But it's a small nit to pick.    The point is still made!     

[James Harden]

future HOF. Best backup ever.

[chad72]

That last pass took balls and he nailed it.

 

That was a Bruce Arians type of call, and definitely not a John Fox type of call (cough John Fox and 2012 playoffs, cough ).

[csmopar]

Did Watt even get a tackle

[peytonmanning18]

Curtis Painter doesn't win these last two games.

I love correction, no qualms about it . I am ecstatic now, so I can take insults too and laugh it off, LOL.

2 I think I saw

Agreed I thought that Watt was going to wreck us tonight, but between Pep's scheming and the O-Line standing tall we kept Hasselbeck clean. Also regarding our secondary I was very disappointed more so on the play caller (Manusky) than the secondary besides the Hail Mary that was all on them. The playcalling was mostly off-man coverage and zone and we got picked apart because of it. We need to be playing press man coverage which is our strong suit not this unaggressive off man stuff.

No doubt!

[Coltsman1788]

Much respect to Hasselbeck.  I thought he was done watching him in the preseason.  Glad to be wrong on that.  He led us to two key divisional wins that we had to have and very well might have saved the Colts season.  He gutted out a big win today flu and all.  You just can't underestimate the size of his heart.  Like Pagano told him last week, "So glad you are a Colt."

[HOZER]

Stud. That is all.

[Malakai432]

Very grateful he's the Colts backup QB.  Sick as a dog and he had a great, turnover free game. 

[James Harden]

Matt threw the ball to everyone on offense tonight! I hope Luck took some notes. Hilton, Johnson, Moncrief, Dorsett, Fleener, Allen, Doyle, Tipton, Gore, Robinson...he threw the ball to everyone! 

[tvturner]

I really like him but I wish he was a bit younger so we could keep him for a bit longer 

[ColtsBlueFL]

Matt has exceed all of my expectations.  I expected this capability the last 2 years, but not this year.  He's right, I'm wrong.

[#12.]

Curtis Painter doesn't win these last two games.

No way.

Gotta give Grigson credit for bringing him in as well. Most have questioned paying him, but having an experienced backup probably saved our season.

[achcolts]

i really do hope andrew did take note of matts play these last two games. hes not going for the gold every pass, but making the smart decision.  he sure is old and obviously past his prime, but there is a bunch of things that andrew could still learn from his play

[NewEra]

He has come in and done awesome. I actually like our offensive flow and rythm better with MH in there. We need to get Luck and or play calling clicking like that.

[snkdy]

Hasselbeck saying he couldn't even talk in meetings last night and Luck spoke for him. Wow.

.@Hasselbeck on Luck: "He told me he's so proud of me. He's the mentor. I'm learning more from that kid than I could ever teach him." #Colts

[blues]

I definitely underestimated him. He's done great, considering the circumstances.

[JWF]

Matt definitely deserves a kudos for his job filling in. Nothing flashy but efficient. Pep needs to call these kinds of games going forward with Luck and Luck needs to take notes from Matt on how to take what is there and not force it.

[CanuckColtsFan]

Thanks Matt, you've done your job and more.

[Jules]

He's a good player, a good looking man and a good person.

 

Whats not to like?

[CanuckColt]

Great game, Matt.    Well done.
