Future Hall of Famer Bobby Okereke

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Look at his stats the last two games playing less then half the snaps. He is really coming along nicely.  Ballard’s draft class from last year has really come along nicely this year. Even Banogu is starting to show flashes. Once Ben has the off season to work with Mathis he should really improve.

This just reminded me of Kemoko Turay smh. Our defense should be great next season

[Thunderbolt]

Yeah, one more year of experience should increase his value to the team.  But still focus on getting a draft in the first.

[CanuckColtsFan]

If we can get a boss DT this D is gonna be something to deal with.

[csmopar]

Way too early to declare him HoF.  I'll say the same thing about Leonard.  Lets see where he is come this time next year.  IF him and Leonard both continue to get better, we could potentially by looking at the LB versions of the Mathis/Freeney Combo

It was a joke. Do you remember when pat mcafee announced his name in the draft.

[holeymoley99]

He is looking great, hope he continues to improve and we really have one of the NFL's best lb corp. Agree we need an elite DT in first round next year, our biggest hole though Stewart has improved every season and that is encouraging.

only hof?  hes probably going to be the best player ever imo

[Rackeen305]

Mannnn oh man. I know that we are fans but.. Bobby Okereke hasn't played at a HOF level. I mean if he does make it to the HOF, let's just add Chris Ballard there as well. That means no more post of Fire CB, because that would mean that CB found All Pro's (Darius Leonard, Bobby) in 2 consecutive drafts. You can't have it both ways, meaning CB sucks but Leonard and Okereke were HOFs due to CB drafting them.

Chill it was a joke because that is what mcafee called him when he announced his draft pick.

[lollygagger8]

Ever since McAfee's draft pick of him, I always say his name twice in a row whenever I read or say OKEREKE!! 

[CR91]

Our defense is coming along, but we need to start focusing on the offense. We're really struggling outside of the running game

[SOMDColtsfan]

Lets hope he isn't retired and in HOF before the Colts get offense straightened out. Kinda joking, kinda not

[coltfaninnewyork]

This unit is going to be elite.Now we need offensive  help .In the last 20 years it was offense carrying defense .

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Ben Banogu is even improving. We might already have our Sheard replacement in a couple of years.

 

The sad thing is I think Eberflus will be getting a coaching job pretty soon. Maybe even after this season. I hope they have a list so this defense doesn’t take a step back.

[DougDew]

Doing well.   This year's developmental guys are showing a better trajectory than some of the older younger guys, IMO.

I agree .

 

If you work last weeks stats out for a whole game , it's something like 17 tackles , 3 sacks, 6 forced fumbles and 3 pass deflections. These are no doubt HOF and GOAT stats.

Honestly the Colts has improved improved but we are definitely not there yet on either side of the ball. If you ever watch defenses like Seahawks, Pittsburgh, NE, Baltimore, etc. They can either cause T.O. or have difference makers who make the play.

 

The Colts are coming along. Let's see what CB does during FA and the draft.

GOAT stats? Lawrence Taylor? Ray Sugar Lewis? Maybe you've never heard of them.

 

My bad, those 6 ff are impressive though.

[EastStreet]

I bet Irsay is already working on the paperwork to rename Lucas Oil to Okereke Stadium.

 

This thread title nominated for hottest take of the year.

Force Fumbles. that's something that we haven't had much of since the days of Bob the builder and LB Clint Sessions.

Mathis had a few.
