i love this defense but as soon as these men left, Peyton started grilling the defense. The penalties hurt the broncos at the end but a win is a win man.

 

So glad but we need to fix the depth in case of emergencies. Any status of these 2?

Sounds like Anderson may be done for the year. They are saying it is a "significant " knee injury. That's not good

I think Adams will be fine, I'm definitely worried about Anderson. 

Anderson has a serious knee injury.  Expect him to be gone for the season the way Pagano was talking.  MRI tomorrow will likely confirm everyone's worst fears.  Done for the season with an ACL.  I am hoping for an MCL.  Based on the replay and you have to look careful, it does look extremely bad.  It's such a shame for such a promising player.  These injuries can sometimes affect someone drastically in his line position.  He is very young and he's got that going for him, but the injury will haunt him for a good long time (if it's serious and season ending).  Look for him to be placed on IR tomorrow as soon as the MRI result is confirmed, thus ending a stalwart rise through training camp and hard work and dedication.  He will be missed but he will be back one day.

Agree.

An injured ankle can be bad, a knee is even worse. IMO, Adams cold be out extended time, Anderson will be out extended time.  The nature and severity of the injury will be determined by a Magnetic Resonance Imaging scan.  The timetables will be more clear at that point.

Impossible to know the severity by watching a replay.

as much pain as he was in, I said immediately ACL. Been there myself. Sadly, a once brilliant career may be over. Anderson was a beast and he will be missed badly.

Huh?

 

Whose brilliant career may be over?

 

Modern medicine has come a long way. 

 

If Anderson is lost for the year,  he is likely back at the start of next season.

i was at the game. Saw him walk out and he looked really angry and hurt with 2 guys helping carry him. Huge difference from seeing Mike Adams just walk off the field.

It was brutal to see CBS flip the screen real quick over to Anderson laying on the ground with that look on his face that this is bad, really bad.  then they quickly went to a commercial......just makes you queezy and sick at your stomach.

I realize that. But it could be a sprain, it could be a tear. Impossible to know but just watching a replay

Peyton is smart and knew how good a run stopper Anderson is/was, they exploit injuries very well.  Adams killed us too, Colt Anderson is no Mike Adams.

No but rarely will you ever be the same again. Unless your AP....

 

Depends on the patient, and what their position requires of them

 

Lots of guys come back strong from ACL repair. It's not as big of an issue as it once was.

 

Yes, and the goal these days is a safe return to sport at 6 months post surgery.  ACL Rehab begins day one in the recovery room.

Exactly.  That is pure guesswork.  But once in the locker room , trainers and doctors can perform many non imaging tests and get a good idea of what is wrong, and an inkling how bad it could be.  For a knee, this could be (as below) -

 

Inspection

Examine for an effusion

Examine for tenderness

Examine range of movement

Examine stability

 MCL and LCL

 The valgus and varus stress tests can be used.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)

 The anterior drawer test:

 Lachman's test: **

 Pivot shift test:

Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)

 Posterior drawer test:

 Posterior sag test:

 

It is known early in these whether follow up imaging tests need to be scheduled.

He'll be okay, just a set back. If he's really as good as he's been, he'll get back to his form. He isn't beasting it up because he's an incredible athlete. He's beasting it up because he plays extremely smart.

Keep in mind that a D-lineman doesn't put anywhere near the strain on their ACL that a skill player does (if it is the ACL). They don't make sudden cuts all game long, which is how Chapman managed to play half of a season on a torn ACL and was still an animal for Bama. It'll be a huge loss, but far from a career-ending injury.

Also keep in mind that a lot of coming back from an ACL injury is mental and trusting that your body has healed.

Man. All you guys that's talking about if its Anderson's ACL then it will affect his career. You guys are trippin. Seriously. If its an ACL then he's done for the year and that sucks as bad as anything could possibly suck, but he'll be back next year and be the same beast he was before. It happens every year. Its not a career altering thing unless your like 40 years old or its just a freak thing. But my gut tells me its not an ACL.

      Chris Ballard: Redfining what Success means in the NFL

      By AKB · Posted

      I've compiled a wardrobe of thoughts, memoirs, and overall emotional debris that is now collected and compounded into something comparable to a rubber band ball- find attached a memoir, a venting, a sigh of relief   ----------------The Colts' Quarterback Quest: A Comedy of Errors----------------   Dear Colts faithful, Let's talk about our journey to find a franchise quarterback. It's been a saga filled with twists, turns, and enough drama to rival a Shakespearean tragedy. After years of waiting and wondering, we finally drafted Anthony Richardson—a quarterback destined to lead us to glory, or so we thought.   But here's the kicker: Richardson might actually end up being a running back. Yes, you read that right. After all the hype, the scouting reports, and the draft day anticipation, we might have inadvertently picked up our next star ball carrier instead of our quarterback savior.   How did we get here, you ask? Well, it's a tale as old as time in Colts Nation. We waited patiently, year after year, for the right moment to strike. We passed on quarterbacks, we shuffled through coaching staffs, and we endured seasons of uncertainty. And just when it seemed like our patience would pay off, we found ourselves scratching our heads yet again.   Now, don't get me wrong. Richardson is undoubtedly talented. He's got speed, agility, and a knack for making plays. But isn't it just our luck that the quarterback we've been waiting for might end up excelling in a different position altogether?   It's almost poetic. The Colts, known for their meticulous planning and strategic moves, find themselves in a situation straight out of a sitcom plot. Are we destined to forever chase the elusive quarterback dream, only to stumble upon a hidden gem in the running back room?   As we ponder this twist of fate, let's remember to laugh through the tears, Colts Nation. After all, football is a game of surprises, and Richardson's unexpected role might just be the plot twist that leads us to unexpected glory. Or at least, that's what we'll keep telling ourselves until the next draft day dilemma.   Here's to hoping Richardson's arm is as strong as his legs, and that our next quarterback isn't hiding in plain sight on the depth chart.   Yours in bemusement, AKB

      Chris Ballard: Redfining what Success means in the NFL

      By AKB · Posted

      Let's take a moment to appreciate the unconventional journey our team has taken over the past decade. While some may see our .500 record and lack of divisional titles in over 10 years as setbacks, I see them as part of what makes being a Colts fan so special.   Our consistency in maintaining a balanced win-loss ratio shows our resilience and ability to compete year after year. It's not about fleeting glory—it's about building a foundation for sustained success. Chris Ballard's vision for long-term stability is commendable, keeping us competitive while others chase short-term gains.   The coaching changes? They're opportunities for growth and evolution. Each new coach brings fresh ideas and strategies, keeping our opponents guessing and our team adaptable. It's a testament to our commitment to finding the right fit and continually improving.   And let's talk about the draft. Ballard's approach may not always yield immediate superstars, but it's about finding players who fit our system and contribute over the long haul. It's like assembling a puzzle where every piece plays a crucial role in shaping our team's identity.   As for our divisional rivals, they may have their moments of glory, but we're forging our own path. We celebrate their successes because it fuels our determination to rise to the challenge and reclaim our place at the top.   So here's to embracing the Colts' unique journey, Colts Nation! Let's cherish every hard-fought win, every draft pick that adds depth to our roster, and every season that brings us closer to our ultimate goal.   Here's to the next chapter of Colts football and the unwavering passion of our fanbase! Go Colts!

      Let's have a wager... You summon Matt Pryor, I summon Cherilus. We have them dressed as sumo wrestlers, and we put them on a wrestling mat with baby oil everywhere. Whoever can stand up the longest while leaning on the other man wins.
