Keep in mind its just a walkthrough, however the good news is Kelly was limited. Geathers still out though

[coltsnation]

I really hope Kelly plays.  We need a run game against the Texans which we didn't have in the other two games.

Something to keep in mind: Houston hasn't let up an 100 yard rusher all year

Thats because they cant stop the pass.

You know they won’t let T.Y. beat them this time.  That should open up the run and the short passes to Hines.

And don't forget open up passes to Ebron. I think we have a great chance to go to KC...

Yeah, my new breakdown that'll be posted tonight or tomorrow says something similar.  I expect them to play T.Y. like we'll Play Hopkins. Over and under and make them use someone else to win with. Problem is, We have Ebron, and Inman..not to mention the other guys have stepped up lately for us.  Their #2, #3, is on IR and #4 Coutee has been out for a month with a hamstring.

Joesph has never been able to cover hilton. His ankle might give him trouble though.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Yeah Ebron is going to be huge.  Ebron was such a steal for us to get him. Plus we need more TD celebrations.lol

 It will be interesting to see how well Mack runs.

That was certainly a thing the Colts have been lacking in. Glad Ebron is picking up the slack

Don't underestimate Reich using Hines as an extension of the running game also. Dump off to our little water bug and use him, he's a legit weapon.

Also because they have been good.   Teams that get leads in games usually have beeter ruch defenses on paper.

I’m not sure how it can be considered good news if he is limited in a walkthrough. If he can’t full go in a walk through, I’m not planning on him being full go with pads let alone in a game. Hope your read on its better than mine.

So it's taken 8 games to figure out they can't let TY beat them?

Coutee will most likely play. He's practiced with no limitations according to the local news here in Houston.

Well. hopefully, he's getting better every day.

He also gashed us for 11 catches and 100+ yards. Getting him back is going to be huge for Houston.

Because it's a walkthrough, they can only "estimate" a player's readiness.  The fact that he was able to be estimated as a LP is a very encouraging sign.

He's coming off a very long layoff with a hamstring.  The Texans only had a walkthrough as well.

 

I'll be curious to see how he does once the "real" practices hit.  O'Brien seems very cautious with his outlook.

Oh, I know.  We stop Hopkins, but with Coutee, they have a good #2.

[chrisfarley]

One thing I hope happens is that if it's obvious TY is not getting separation from Joseph early on (due to his ankle), that we move on from it and go with plan B fairly quickly.  The margin for error in this game will be minuscule.  If you look at how few play-action opportunities you truly get in a game, every one of them is precious. The run-pass balance is critical and since Houston does lock down the run game very well you get even fewer.  And lastly, TY can be a shorter yardage guy too and get us some 3rd down conversions and also be a decoy in those situations as well.
