Weight: 325. If he can still be had with trading down, then fine, but at the end of the day, I will stand by my belief that team building requires quality from the trenches and with that quality from the trenches all good will flow from there. Give me an all-pro interior lineman and I would happily use the number one overall on him, given the assumption that we will have a healthy Luck ready to go for next year. A great OL coupled with a half-way competent OC, with the Colts’ current skill position players, the Colts’ O could easily become top 10, perhaps even top 5. My advocating Nelson is based on the assumption that he will indeed turn into the Pro Bowl quality player he is being touted as being.

Our shared fond memories of Bert Jones, Lydell Mitchell, Raymond Chester, Ted Marchibroda, etal, far transcends our apparent difference of opinion regarding team building. Ergo, I shall look past the fact that you are so dearly mistaken in discounting the value and importance of using premium picks to build a dominating offensive line to protect the franchise QB’s shoulder (oh no, not Bert Jones again!) and set up a dominating running game. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoolMagnet Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Looks like less than an inch of snow in the forecast. the last snow game i remember in Buffalo was the game we sat most of our top players. You remember, the year we decided to not go for the undefeated season. I seem to remember getting dallas clark some catches for stats tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasting a top 5 pick on guard isn't the way to begin. A Tackle would be preferable at the place in the draft and history confirms it. I guess we will just have to agree to disagree and hope you are well my friend. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got it for $99 for the year. Just need to have or know a kid going to college and use their name and dob. Then you can stream it on just about any device these days...ps4, xbox, pad, phone, tv. I have to do it because down here in Western Kentucky we get KC games now apparently. We used to get Tennessee mostly on CBS now we don't even get them and they are less than 2 hrs away. Its crazy even the Colts vs Titans game wasn't on air....nobody wants to watch the Chiefs...its like a spit in the eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like there was at least one more that needed some stat padding. We marched down the field and scored like hot knife in butter and got everyone their stats then sat them. Stupid.

Was something to the effect that they broke the record that really counted . Something like most consecutive wins without a rabbit punching you in the face. Said 16-0 was already done before. Real head scratcher for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WoolMagnet Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Update: that buffalo snow game in 2009 we played starters to get wayne and clark 100 catches each for the season. Watching it again, i forgot how good that 2009!team was. We beat a good raven team, and whooped up on the jets at home. We shoulda won that darn super bowl too. Bummer freeney got hurt late in a jets game we had won. I think freeney at 100% would have won us the game (even with baskett ). I think i'll watch the raven and jet game today. They were good ones.
