Will Fuller "Unlikely" to play tonight vs Colts

[TKnight24]

And watch our coaching staff still not allow Vontae to shadow Hopkins. But this is huge news

This is huge news, that guy is dangerous! They are pretty banged up.

[braveheartcolt]

Fortunately for the Texans, Patrick Robinson will play for us.....

I'm so conflicted. I am happy he wont play. But he was going to get me a ton of fantasy points...

I am always happy to lose a fantasy game in exchange for a real Colts win.... (and I have Fuller on nearly every team, he replaced Moncrief). 

[GoBlue12]

That is certainly a blessing for us

[AZColt11]

We got a shot....

[Redbull]

Hate to see him injury. But it should mean we can cover them. I would have really like to beat them at full strength but it's the NFL injuries r part of it.  Keep in mind we made a 4th string wr look like an all products last week. Got high hopes for the defense in this game goes Colts 

[Redbull]

All pro. I hate spell check 

[teganslaw]

I didn't realize the Texans were so banged up, other than Watt being out. We have a chance, and need to take advantage whenever we can. No penalties and protect Luck!

Funny how Fuller has already struck fear in opposing defenses in his 1st year, and then we have Dorsett who was rated as a better WR coming out of the draft, yet Indy hasn't been using him nearly enough or put in him situations to best utilize his skill set. 

 

That's coaching for ya. 

[BPindy]

HUGE boost for the defense. That makes me feel a lot better about our chances

Yeah Houston featured him right away in their offense. Dorsett was buried on the depth chart his rookie season, not sure what the excuse is now though, they definitely need to get him more involved.

[jbaron04]

We need to take Hopkins out the game with vonte and if when vonte not on him you bracket. But let's be honest miller is gonna be the one to kill us in the short passing game our lbs are slow and can't tackle 

[King Colt]

Osweiller (7 INT's so far) like Luck is getting no protection. Fuller not playing is big. Clowney gets better with        every game but still not much in the sack dept. Texans Secondary is much like the Colts. Pretty much an even match. Luck is our bonus over Osweiller.

Man the secondary has to do better they just have one int in 5 games

[WoolMagnet]

We can use all the help we can get

Hopkins is going to have 250 yards.

Oh well. TY is gonna have 300.

Update....

 

 

 

FOX Sports' Jay Glazer reports there is a better chance Will Fuller plays Sunday night against the Colts than not.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Sunday morning Fuller is not expected to play, but Glazer said he is "doing much better now." Glazer did say he could be limited if he plays. This is obviously a nightmare scenario for fantasy owners with Fuller playing on Sunday night. It is tempting to take the risk in a great matchup, but the safe play is to sit Fuller for a reasonable option during the afternoon slate.

Good thing I have him on my fantasy team!

[will426]

hopkins will get shut down if they put Vontae on him. And I hope they send Dorsett on 10 go routes because if ty can get deep on every one of thier corners in the past I'm sure Dorsett can with the same success

Well, there's Dorsett fast, and there is Will Fuller fast. 

 

Dorsett is not Will Fuller fast. 

 

And I don't know where Dorsett was rated as a better WR.  Fuller had a much more productive college career at the WR position.

 

Fuller had 15 receiving touchdowns in '14 and 14 receiving touchdowns in '15.  I would trade Dorsett for Fuller every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

Thanks for this post. I had Fuller starting on fantasy team. I picked up Kenny Britt and he went off for 30pts.

Gotta hate those nfl all products wide receiver.

 

All he does is try to sell stuff to the other team the whole game.  Be it video games or Tv's.  That guy is all products.

Fuller was rated better than dorsett

[TKnight24]

 

[runthepost]

Well he will burn someone

[Colts_Fan12]

So much for our slight advantage lol if he's even anywhere close to 100% he will burn our secondary and if we somehow stop him then Hopkins will kill us on the other side as another poster mentioned Miller will more then likely be worse then both of them

Dorsett is faster than Fuller. 4.27>4.32

Speed isn't everything.  And there's a difference between running in shorts speed and football speed.

 

Fuller has 2 NFL TD receptions in 5 games.

 

Dorsett has 2 NFL TD receptions in his career thus far.

No cheap wins, if we can't beat the Texans, well you get it.

 

I'm sorry, they have to beat teams at full strength.
