Colts Vs. Cowboys Game Day Thread

Recommended Posts

Hi, Colts Nation!   Great win and 24-21 upset by our Indianapolis Colts last Sunday at Houston.  Our 7-6 Colts are back in both the friendly confines, and local fan support of the Blue Horseshoe Nation inside the real Lucas Oil Stadium, as they host the 8-5 and NFC East leading Dallas Cowboys. 

 

Cowboys are playing a regular season road game in Indianapolis in eight years.  But Indianapolis is  also attempting to end their three-game regular season losing streak since 2002 to Dallas, not defeating the Cowboys on a regular season game in 16 years, ans defeat the Cowboys since the Colts started playing their games at LOS since 2009. 

 

Colts are also playing their last two home games of the 2018 NFL Regular Season hosting consecutive NFC East interdivisional opponents, they Cowboys this Sunday afternoon, and later the New York football Giants in the home season finale at LOS, Next Sunday, December 23.

 

Dallas Cowboys have been the most progressive and advanced team in the past six weeks, since they came back from their Week 8 bye week, to lose to the Tennessee Titans 28-14 on Monday Night Football back on November 5.

 

Since that date, the Cowboys are at their present five-game winning streak two developments have favored the Cowboys, notably acquiring WR Amari Cooper, replacing Dez Bryant at WR before the trade deadline in late October, and the Redskins losing their last four regular season games, after losing both  Redskins QB's  Alex Smith  and Colt McCoy the rest of this season  and on injured reserve, and the instability of Mark Sanchez and Josh Johnson.

 

Indianapolis is also avenging their 42-7 loss to Dallas in both teams last regular season meeting played at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, back on December 21, 2014.  Dallas lead most of that game 42-0, until Colts QB Matt Hasselbeck avoided the shutout, throwing his 1-yard TD pass to Zurlon Tipton, plus Adam Vinetieri's PAT, with 4:26 remaining in the fourth quarter.

 

Dallas also leads the all-time regular series at 10-6-0, in this afternoon's 17th meeting.

 

Today's Colts Vs. Cowboys game is also  the marquee regional  single header game seen in the majority of the USA  for The NFL On FOX, with Kevin Burkhardt and Charles Davis doing the live TV game commentary, along with sideline reporter and interviewer Pam Oliver, and seen regionally, and locally on WXIN FOX Channel 59, live on HD.

 

Colts and LOS's building management  will still  leave the  retractable roof closed for this afternoon's 1:05 PM Eastern Standard Time kickoff, because there will be sunny skies, but still cold around the stadium area at 47 degrees, feels like 44 degrees, along with 0% precipitation, 71% humidity, and western winds at 7 miles per hour.

 

Head Linesman Carl Cheffers leads his NFL Officiating Crew, to supervise the game action in the LOS playing field this afternoon.

 

NO injuries, Win your First Home Game Over The Cowboys At The Real LOS, Stay In The Hunt For The Upcoming NFL Playoffs, And Keep Pace With The Houston Texans For The AFC South Lead, And LET'S GO COLTS!!!!!

Cowboys fans always travel well. When I went to the 1999 game I would say 40% of the crowd was pro Dallas. Marvin burned Deion and we won :thmup:. Just have to shut them up again. 

 

Cowboys fans are like cockroaches... especially when they are winning. They come out of the woodwork all over America.

There are fans like this in Australia.

 

Funnily enough, also supporters of teams with huge fanbases that only let their fans down.

Hello fellow colts fans (and foes). Hope everyone is having an excellent Sunday and that you all are looking forward to the game! I’m excited for this game as our drive to the playoffs are still alive as long as we first and foremost take care of business by beating the ‘boys. 

 

I wished I could watch this live today but I’ll wait until game pass is available later to watch the game. Enjoy the game people and go Colts! No injuries on either side of the ball or either team!

Nelson is pretty big in Indy from what I hear. 

They were doing hand drill and it looked like Nelson was getting his younger brother ready. Like he didnt really want him to play but mom said that he had to let him play too.

    • This contract makes me think about the other receivers who will now get contracts and how are the teams going to go about it:   Jamarr Chase:  he’s definitely getting $28million or more.  I don’t see Higgins staying unless there are numerous reworks and pay cuts from other teammates.  I’m sure Boyd and Burton will be their WR2 and WR3 in the future.  Bengals will definitely pick up his 5th year option, but what will happen in 2026?   CeeDee Lamb:  he’s getting paid also.  He’s gotten better every year and last year was a MONSTER year for him.  Let’s see what Jerry does.  He has Dak and Ceedee to pay and both are going to command some big contracts.     seems like aiyuk is the last one because I’m pretty sure anyone else will either have their 5th year option picked up or have gotten paid.   props to Ballard for getting Pittman paid before the top dogs like JJ set the market.    
    • Yes agreed Well Deserved!    I have been hoping that Granson can turn into a player like Clark  
    • Gotcha. Wentz was  one of the most talented qbs in the league based on physical traits. The Colts, in their assessment of Wentz, didn't realize they were not getting the same player mentally. I am not a Wentz apologist but I do,  and said it at the time, the Oline needed to take some responsibility in what he became. He was battered and bruised by the lack of protection and I think the beating he took in Philly and the early one he took with the Colts, knocked whatever was left of a starting qb in that body and mind. The point I am making is this. We can say he is our franchise LT and say he played really well and is deserved of a  big 2nd contract.  If one were just to look at it objectively.  Say fans and Colts media have him rated as a 7.5 and based on Cosell's comments he has him as a 5.0. Do you think Cosell could be so way off in his evaluation of Raimann? That is just what I found interesting. I mean I could say Cosell say that Raimann was say average and go okay, we can live with that. To say that he is not the answer and/or has not panned out is a different monster all together.
