He has 10 pressures on the season already. 

 

Simon has 11 on the season. 

 

Since switching to a 3-4, this is the 1st time the Colts have had 2 OLBs with double digit pressures in the 1st 3 games.

 

Well you're on top of things... good stats

He got sloppy and lost contain on a couple plays Sunday, but other than that, IMO, he's played very well. Not a sack monster, but that's not what anyone should have expected from him. 

 

On the Johnson TD run Sheard does a beautiful job of setting the edge against two blockers.  He drives Duke inside.  

 

Bostic gets lots and cuts outside, as if he wants to go after the blocker not the ball carrier.  Hooker overruns the play. Duke slips back inside for that long TD run.  

 

Sheard has gotten better each week, as have most of the new guys.  Well, maybe not Bostic...

I am looking forward to actually being able to watch the game tomorrow night.  I am going to watch Sheard closely as I knew he could set the edge and was a decent pass rusher....it will be nice to actually view it.  Simon as well, except Simon seems to have shown more upside right now...for a defense that depends on both edge setting and pass rush from their OLB's I like what Indy has!

I don’t know what’s going on with Spence, I thought he looked good in his brief appearance.

 

Game player, but not a practice player apparently.  We've seen where giving the nod to a practice player got us with Tolzien.  I'd like to see Spence get a chance.  If he can stay healthy, i think he can play.

Hey guys. ive been in and out of the forum. been really busy with moving and a new job. good to hear our FA pickups are doing well. Woods and hunt have looked really good on the line. hankins too at times. simon has been an absolute steal so far. inside LBers still need work, but you cant fix everything in one offseason.
