getting Vontae back is huge...sounds like he should be ready to go this week or next.

[coltsfeva]

    When asked if they knew more about Luck than they were divulging, he reiterated that when the doctors clear him, he'll be ready to practice. 

     This was and has ALWAYS been what the Colts have said, regarding Lucks return. 

     Maybe if they answered in Chinese?

Pagano saying "you guys know just as much as I do" is the biggest joke ever. Who actually believes him when he says that?

Irsay didn't always say that, when he had season tickets for sale over the winter he claimed Luck would be ready for the season.

"Coach pagano! Will you be back next year?!"

 

"you guys know just as much as I do"

I can answer that, the answer is no unless Luck comes back and saves his butt with a bunch of wins to make the Playoffs

Haha, well I think the writing's on the wall as far as Pagano's tenure in Indy after this year, but I was referring to the whole Luck debacle. That's pretty funny though.

Colts win Sunday!!!  Take it to the bank.  Otherwise, Mister P will disappear from this forum.

Go Blue!!

Defense is gonna be good last half of the season as the rookies grow.

Yeah, have to agree at this point.  We'll see more talented WR's as the season progresses, but hopefully the kids will grow with the increased playing time.

 

CB really hit a home run with the D secondary, in the draft in my opinion.

[NewColtsFan]

 

When it comes to injuries,  I always,  ALWAYS assume I'm being lied to.     And I never take offense to it.

 

I mean,  the Pagano comment about you guys know as much as I do makes my eyes roll....      but big deal....

 

I assume teams believe it gives them some level of advantage.     ALL 32 teams do this.     It's not a Colts thing.    We have a NEW GM and he's doing the same thing as the OLD GM.       Why?       It's just what NFL teams do.

They play on Sunday, and Luck's been ruled out already. What possible competitive advantage could there be?

Sorry,  SS....

 

I worded my post a little poorly....    I wasn't trying to connect the dots on Pagano's comment and competitive advantage.      Just to his comment being untrue,  because it's what NFL teams do.

 

So, for example, the other day Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer said this at his presser regarding Sam Bradford's bad knee's.....     "Sam's had two knee surgeries in his career.    Ths is not as serious.     But I'm not going to talk about injuries.     I'm not going to talk about Sam's injuries."       Not word for word,  but pretty close.

 

Zimmer is being a little more straight forward....   but he's saying the same thing,  he's not talking about it --- period.

 

Sorry for the confusion.

No.      This is NOT Andrew Luck's confirmed Twitter account.     He doesn't have one.

 

This is a made-up, fictious account done completely for entertainment,   not for good inside info.

 

Often,  they are quite funny.....      one of my favorite on-line meme's....

I'm pretty sure if you are following the Colts after last season and the start of this one, you not on a band wagon.....maybe an ambulance.

Can you access Twitter from a flip phone?

That comment always reminds me of the Onion's "Ocular Penetration Restriction Act of 2007" news coverage clip.

I hear ya. But we're talking about a franchise QB that's missed the entire offseason, OTAs, training camp, hasn't practiced with the team at all, nor has he been seen throwing. On top of all that he's been a scratch from the first 3 regular season games, and counting. It's beyond time for there to be some type of transparency as to what's going on, whether they make Luck available to the media, or Ballard addresses it, or even Irsay. Basically anything other than Pagano acting like it's outrageous to ask what's up with the face of the franchise.

 

I'm trying to be level-headed about it, but it's getting frustrating, and I'm certain I'm not the only one that feels that way. Jim Irsay said he'd be ready for the start of the season, and here we are 3 weeks in and they tell us a single thing about his recovery.

I might just not be detecting sarcasm well, but it's a parody account. Pretty popular on twitter and reddit.

Edit: Didn't see the few other responses to your post before I posted. Whoops.

[Steamboat_Shaun]

I obviously voted yes.

[2006Coltsbestever]

We are just going to have to have patience for 1 more season. If Andrew doesn't play at all this season I am ok with it because I know next season he will be 100%2014 Andrew and Ballard will Draft well with high picks.

Yeah it is odd that he hasn't 1 word to the media about anything. I haven't heard anything anyway and we are in Week 3. Doesn't anyone find that odd? Maybe it isn't odd but he is our best player and hasn't said anything.

It's really bizarre.

When Pagano utters that ridiculous statement, every media rep should turn their backs on him and walk away.

And this isn't because we can't stop the pass so no one even trys to run.  This team has so far really stood up well against the run game.

 

Also, not sure why folks are still surprised that we don't get the full doctor's report each day on Andrew or anyone else.  Just is not going to happen.  We will at best get vague answers and probably some out right lies.  Just the way it is in most any sport, but especially football.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Everyone from different fanbases and in the media is laughing at us because they know without Andrew we stink. I have to have patience and just wait until next year when we turn it on with a healthy Andrew and more of Ballard building the team.

What Ballard put together in the off season gives me hope for the Colts.  Not this year but, next and beyond.  Post Pagano

Look at the picture.

 

The twitter account is a parody of Andrew Luck as a civil war soldier.

 

In the past when Luck had his beard they took his head and put it on an old picture of a civil war officer and it looked pretty awesome.  

 

 

Or my personal favorite when he was playing against Ryan Fitzpatrick once.

 

 

The twitter account has tweets like this
