Colts @ Bengals Preseason Game Night Thread

Thanks for coming to The Colts Game Day Forum for the final NFL Preseason Game in 2018,  finally  on tonight, Colts Nation!   :default_20smile:   Our Indianapolis Colts and Cincinnati Bengals play the first of two games in the next 11 days.  

 

Colts are in Cincinnati tonight to play their preseason finale with the Bengals, and with a win, can finish their record at 3-1.

 

All NFL teams traditionally play their fourth and final preseason games, except the Hall-Of-Fame-Game,  in the last Thursday Night in August.

 

Bengals come back up across Interstate 74 northwest when they play the rematch when the results count for the regular season opener on September 9.

 

Colts and the Bengals, will sideline their veteran starters, and save them for play in the upcoming regular season, as tonight most of the veteran reserves and free agent players, and drafted and signed college players not selected in the recent 2018 NFL Draft,  try to advance themselves from the 90-man training camp roster, to impress the coaches and fans, and make the final 53-man regular season roster.

 

Colts, and the rest of the NFL teams later must meet the mandate 53-man regular season roster by 4:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time on September 1.

 

Colts and NFL teams on the following day can staff their 10-man practice squad as early, and after  as 1:00PM Eastern Standard Time.

 

Mostly cloudy skies at 80 degrees, feels like 86 degrees, is the game forecast inside Paul Brown Stadium, for tonight's 7:05 PM Eastern Standard Time kickoff, along with 5% precipitation, 70% humidity, and mild northern winds at 5 miles per hour.

 

NO injuries, great luck on the players making the final 53-man roster with these same Bengals on Opening Week 1 on September 9, at the real LOS, and GO COLTS!!!!!  :coltslogo:    :coltshelmet:  :colts::1colts:   :coltslogo:   :rock:

I think he did

Brissett needed to lead Pascal more there.  Could have been six.

Agreed

“Their starters alone have 11 sacks this preseason.” 

 

 

Gulp.

Get JB out of there

    • Agreed. Tom always brings thoughtful perspective to the forum and I enjoy reading his posts. 
    • Hey, Tom!    Good to see you posting again!    I know you like to show up this time of year to offer your insight.      As I like to tell you every year, I’m sure you’re posting as often as you can,  but I think many here would love to see you post more often!   This website is always better when you’re posting more!   
    • We, might... or we might not... or we might lose someone else to injury. It's just what happens in the league. If it's not one player it will be another. It's a violent sport and players will miss games.  You know how I feel about AR. I still think he needs improvements but the sky is the limit with him... I don't think there was anybody higher on him than me here. But first thing - he just needs to stay healthy.    Downs had a very promising rookie season. Hope he makes a jump in year 2 too...  Honestly. I'm not high on this TE group. The rumors about Woods are not great. Ogletree and Mallory IMO are JAGs at best. Which is OK for where they were drafted but they are not game changers. We need better... I guess if you believe in Brock Bowers we should be hoping he's there for us to take in the draft.  Cross will need to make the jump because it looks like we might be losing Blackmon. He had some flashes at the end of the year, but he still needs to show consistency over a prolonged period of time. I think Raimann is already very good. I'm not too enthused with the way Ballard has handled the DT position...    Steichen was already doing wonders with what he was given last year. IMO the hope is that AR stays healthy and is able to unlock the full potential of what Steichen envisions in his offense. 
    • I think I need to clarify something…,  I’m NOT suggesting Irsay isn’t filthy rich.  That the Colts aren’t sound financially.     All I’m saying is that from time to time the Colts might have cash flow problems.  Life as a small market team.   Nothing wrong with that.  The Colts do this (The “0” singing bonus) for a reason.  It benefits them.  And I think it’s smart business.   That’s all.
