a06cc Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Don’t think the neck with Geathers is serious. The move would’ve already been made. I could be wrong it may happen tomorrow. I just feel optimistic about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its time to move on from Geathers, so hopefully Mitchell can provide a bridge. I like the signing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Praying for Geathers but perhaps he needs to consider his family and safety and shut it down. He always played hard. At least Gronk never threw him out of the club like he did to Sergio Brown. One of the all-time lows for the Colts vs Pats....until the following year when another Colt safety took a snap on a fake 4th down that will forever go down as one of the worst plays in NFL history next to the butt fumble and Mark Sanchez. Sadly if Geathers had been there for either of those plays they probably don't happen (he was suppose to be the snapper instead of Whalen and knew to take a delay of game if it didn't work).

CanuckColtsFan Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Good to see Ballard finding a guy who didn't cost a ton. He is a vet, fits the scheme and is playing like a man with purpose.
