Eating Crow Thread

Recommended Posts

I hate these threads... not because I mind admitting when I'm wrong, it's just I'm wrong so often, I could spend all my time in these threads.

 

Quite frankly, unless you started calling people names or claiming someone else was stupid because they were speculating something different, there is no reason to eat crow.

I will eat crow if Pittman and Taylor start day one over Mack

and the bevy of vet receivers in our stable.

 

After watching videos of Ballard and Reich gushing about them,

now I'm thinking I may have to search in the fridge for some

A-1 sauce in a few months.

I think Pittman may start, but I think Mack will be the starting RB for at least the first few games.

I really wanted to be in a thread like this one last season when I kept saying Brissett was not the answer.  I would have gladly eaten crow as I was rooting for Brissett in full.  I think it is good that he got 2 full seasons to showcase what he has, but this will be his last season with the Colts if they keep him.   

In this draft, I thought a WR was going to be taken in the 2nd round along with either a TE or an O-lineman.  I can live with Taylor, but I was wrong so dish out the crow.  

 

I didn't really make predictions in the prior drafts other than expressing that I wanted Nelson at pick 3.   Ballard got him at 6 plus additional picks.  Last years 2nd round picks of Rock, Banogu and Campbell were solid to me.

I think Rivers is going to be good with our Line and the weapons we have now. I just hope our defense improves stopping the pass.

Agreed.  I do believe that Buckner is a huge addition and step towards that improvement.  Hopng the other additions are as well.

Coney Island!

They are open for carryout, wife and I were thinking of picking up a box next week.              I am also pleasantly surprised about how incorrect my draft thoughts were  ……. I will keep my day job

Maybe this exists.

It would be cool if there was a website where you could pick for your team at where they are picking.   It could then track how the players did in coming years.  I'd be interesting.   I may have passed on Taylor and picked KMet.   Not saying it would have been good, but in a couple years we would know for certain.  

Just a thought.

    • I'm not in Indiana, but I am so ready for the draft. I should have taken the day off.   I would be surprised to see that trade. The pats have said they have not received serious offers to trade back. But that would be great to see Marvin Harrison's son as a Colt.
    • Surprisingly in “twitter land” it’s picking up steam lol. It’s the Wild West in there right now. On the .0000001% chance it happens I feel the fanbase would still be split. Some furious over compensation. Some over the moon to get Marvin’s son in Indy.    As long as we don’t draft a OL in the first round I’ll be a happy camper. Hoping for Bowers, BTJ, Arnold in that order for who would (realistically) want. 
    • There’s been a lot of comments made by Ballard lately that they are always planning a few years out, while the coach is pushing for players that can help now. So it’s a balance. He’s made comments that the goal is to protect and provide weapons for AR. The talent at the top of the draft seems like there could be a couple really good offensive lineman falling down to us, with a run on receivers and skill players. I don’t necessarily see that, I think there could be a run on qbs, tackles, and pass rushers with the obvious 3 receivers before we pick. That could potentially push all corners, as well as Bowers down to 15. But say, both corners and Bowers go top 15, who does that push out? Most likely a talented tackle. They can either trade back or take the highest rated player on the board, which would provide swing tackle depth, and a plan for if Smith is injured/isnt re-signed following 2025. Some are speculating it might be best to move Smith to guard in that scenario. 
    • I don't believe this would ever happen as the price would be much too steep. The only way this is even a remote possibility is if the Pats do not like Maye or McCarthy . Then this would also need the QB needy teams to feel the same as NE . The value of Maye , if he's a franchise QB is multiple firsts. IMO , you can't give up that for a WR
