RockThatBlue Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 That play where he stuffed the QB sneak was just awesome. He was a whipping boy for many last year but you can't deny he's had a hell of a year so far besides the bills game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos Danger Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Parry... What a steal in the draft... Guy gets low and plays smart. That's a pick (Anderson, too) that will serve the Colts well for years to come. Grigson killed it with this draft... Every week our D-Line gets a little more experience... If we could get some health back in the secondary the D has serious potential for the rest of the year.I don't think that Indy's SB hopes are in as much peril as others do. I believe that the offense will work itself out and be very good by midseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgww Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 DQ has had 2 straight big games. He is playing well at what he is asked to do...got me 9.5 fantasy points at LB too. That's rare for an LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

will426 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Notice how the defense is better without Freeman. yeah i think we were first assuming Jackson made freemen look bad but ironically without freemen we've looked great..I'm hoping that they make him try and earn that starting position back and not just give it back bc Irving and Moore do not seem to want to give it back lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lollygagger8 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Let's be real here......DQ is a liability in coverage, but he has been playing out of his mind against the run the last few games. Hopefully he can keep that going. I thought Irving looked pretty good as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedBlu8792 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Notice how the defense is better without Freeman.I'd rather have Freeman in there with Moore/Irving opposed to DQ. Freeman is still better than DQ in coverage and against the run, in my opinion, he just can't shake the groin/hamstring issues that he's dealt with the last 2 years.

IndyD4U Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 We'll have a stud ILB group mid to late season. I really like what they're doing with Moore, and Irving needs to start next to DQ. DQ played well last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoColts8818 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I feel like he's been awesome this season. This has been the guy they saw with the Browns.

Seriously, in what area does DQ really shine at as "Good" on a consistent basis? Not just tonight, or a game here and there.DQ has played well in 4 out of 5 games, the only game where he played average was in the Bills game. And DQ has been playing consistent ball since he came to the Colts. it is one of the things that makes DQ a very good LB, he is consistently in the right place and he consistently makes the play when he has the opprortunity. He is not a guy that will take over a game or make huge flashy plays but he is consistent. I also disagree with the idea that he is a liability in coverage, he's not. He is a liability trying to cover the more athletic TEs in the NFL man to man but he's not asked to do that very often. In zone coverage he is very good and he's very good at covering the more traditional TEs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a huge DQ fan but he has stepped it up this year and he is certainly a superior run defender than Freeman, always has been. Since Freeman has been moved out of the MIKE position his production has wavered, however back in 2012 and 2013 he was text book. His game against the Vikings in 2012, and the majority of the year, was absolutely text book. His hamstring injuries and groin injuries have hindered him badly. He has been horrible lately in putting himself in position within the gaps to make plays. I've seen what each could do and I still believe if Freeman is on point he's better than DQ.

He's actually been progressively worse each season, specifically vs the run. Last year Freeman was awful, much worse than DQ and that trend has continued this year.

Dark Superman Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 D'Qwell has been a wrecking ball out there these past few weeks. If only we can get someone to establish themselves beside him. Right now I prefer Jackson over Freeman,Moore or even Irving. He's playing great football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when they called him Baby Ray, and he was playing lights out in both phases but as I said I think his injuries have limited him badly these past two years. Regardless I think Irving and Moore are the future and I'm completely fine with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
