Colts @ Bengals Preseason Game Night Thread

Looks like Kelly just needed a minute to warm up

I can see Reich working Kelly in the gameplan with this zone read. Similar to how the Saints work Taysom Hill in. Not that Kelly is as athletic as Hill, but he can run this zone read with a pass option and really throw a wrench in defensive gameplanning without putting Brissett at risk running it.

Man, I'd sit Campbell now.. I've seen enough. I'm sold.

Agree.  See how he feels in the morning.  Hopefully this sets him up well for the opener.

That catch and run was a nice tease.  Pumped for the season to start now.

[Malakai432]

I do like CK, I think he's an athletic talent.  Saw that nice baseball sling he did also threading it.  This kid has a lot of potential but there's not denying the talent is there from an athletic standpoint.

I like Kelly 1 bad throw in 4 games I will take it. Hope they keep the kid!

Not worried about that with Reich. His plays will be designed to get it out quick.

All I mean is quick throws aren't really Brissett's bread and butter. Obviously his deep ball is great. And while I do think Brissett is the overall better QB at the moment, I like Kelly a little more on these short routes. Nice mix of velocity and touch. I like him a lot in these RPO's too. Seems quicker than Brissett.

[compuls1v3]

LOL..this announcer.... "Nearly sprung it..."  that returner wasn't even CLOSE.... he got smacked!

His style of play reminds me of Romo's.

One thing to ponder........

This team went from "Andrew's team"..... to "OUR team" in the psyche of these players.

  They are young.  I hope they each  take their own  "ownership" of this team.  Effort-wise, they certainly are playing that way tonight.

  Another advantage of building the right kind of locker room.

Who does that remind us all of AL every time he turned the ball over he would come back out and take it right down the field. Kelly showing same traits.

Seems quicker on his feet than Brissett.

It’s all going to be the plays called. Campbell will help a ton with getting that ball out quick.

[krunk]

Like i said earlier today. Kelly has a knack for moving the football and finding the end zone. Its usually 3pts or 7pts with him. Im staying with my prediction of 21pts for him tonight.

[EastStreet]

I hate the INT, but 9/10 is pretty good, and the TD helps lol...

 

I love watching Campbell

[Horse Shoe Heaven]

Franklin makes a play after 2 bad one!

This why it’s very possible that this team actually could end up being better.

Brissett is going to have to play well if he wants to keep the starting job....at least after week 3!

Kelly is playing against scrubs. Most wont have a job after Sat.

If Luck hadn't  retired  he would have gotten  close to 60 tds with these wrs. Brissett should get atleast 30.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

The backup FG kicker hasn’t looked good.

[Fisticuffs111]

Hedlund seems too struggle from that side. His other miss was from that right hash.

[MB-ColtsFan]

Please don't retire yet, Vinny!!

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

If indeed pascal makes this team and hogan is out he is going to get picked up by a team.

[MB-ColtsFan]

He's looked good no matter who he's played against....he's very talented, most people can see that!

Umm...he's only played against scrubs and backups.  He has a lot of potential, but it's only that; potential.

True, but the same can be said with the reverse.  Just also imagine him playing with Ty, Ebron, Doyle, Campbell, Cain, Mack behind a starting OL! That being said since he's a back up he honestly may have more chemistry with the others.  I do think the backup OL however is probably not very good.  

 

I'd like to see CK take another shot deep.  

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Reich just had the biggest smile on his face talking about Campbell.

[Colt Overseas]

Is there an argument that Hogan is a better WR than Rogers or Pascal? Doesn't have the special teams value granted.

[DEColtsLover36]

Would be nice if West would step up his game a bit

I live in Cincinnati. UC is opening tonight against UCLA at home. That's the big game in town.

Yeah, he seems a little lackluster compared to last game.  He was lighting it up last game.

I wonder how he would look with our number oline. He looks pretty good with scrubs.

Yes he is clearly better. He would make a great insurance if DF got injured.

A lot of our cuts are going to get picked up by another team.

 

[Scott Pennock]

Tell got beat on the sideline throw but was still in position to make a solid tackle. He's gotta have 4-5 with several of them in open field plus a couple pass breakups including one in the end zone. Cemented his spot if you ask me.

 

E.J. Speed has got to have 10 tackles. He's diagnosed plays quickly, shed blocks and made solid tackles at the line and in space. Far outplayed Adams and Franklin this preseason fo sho! Cemented his spot. 

 

Pascal and Rogers are making the roster purely based off of special teams skills - not because they've outplayed the others.
