Blackmon

[krunk]

Not sure if Hooker got hurt or they just yanked him out. I think i like Blackmon back there anyway from what ive seen so far

[Rolltide_gocolts]

Blackmon is a DUDE!!  He just looks and feels better on the field... like even if he doesn’t have a clue what’s going on, he’s still  gonna  make tons of plays & be around the back and make a play

Hes got more fire than Hooker and hes not scared of contact. And he can match up man to man.

Hooker has an Achilles injury according to reports.

 

But Blackmon played very well. I was kind of shocked when I first saw him on the field, I thought he would need a bit more time to get ready to play... Oh well, that one comes in the best possible moment. Let's hope he can keep it up in case Hookers injury keeps him out for a while.

Trade hooker for a wr please.

I first noticed him on the play when someone tried to hurdle him. I was like "WAS THAT 32!?" Really excited for him and hopefully he's not back too soon.

Blackmon looked a lot like Moore and Leonard as in he has  very good instincts.

Hooker got hurt 

   Blackmon played great

I was really impressed by Blackmon. I know it’s only one game but he really brought something to the pass D.

[rock8591]

Trade Hooker to the Bucs for Orenthal James Howard.

[GoColts8818]

Did more in a half than Hooker has on career.  Ok I am joking but I really liked what I saw from him today.

[IndyEric07]

Trade Hooker for a bag a peanuts and I’ll be happy! Blackmon showed to have a tendency to be around a play unlike Maleak! The secondary for once looked like they can keep a wr in front of them! Im not sure if the Vikes are that bad or Whatever, but the Colts secondary looked great!

[HectorRoberts]

I’m pretty sure hooker is going to miss a lot of time due to this injury 

[NannyMcafee]

Hooker has been a failure in the NFL. No fire or balls skills to speak of like he supposedly had. 

 

He just doesn't seem very interested in the game.

I was surprised too. He has already surpassed Odum after one limited practice. Unless Odum is a pure SS now.

I think a little of both.  The secondary clearly looked motivated and they did adjust by being a bit more aggressive.  However the Vikings have no real WRs outside of one guy.  Also this is why the Redskins didn’t commit to Cousins.  He will look really good at times but he has too many games like this where he’s just flat awful.

Just depends on the extent of the injury. I haven't seen anything about a torn achilles, so hopefully it's something more mild.

[holeymoley99]

Blackmon a totally different type of player then Odom, no offense Odom has over achieved but Blackmon has stud potential.

Odum is more of a SS

Just based on hookers behavior on the side line he wasn’t  acting like it was a mild injury

I feel sorry for @NFLfan, @VikingsFanInChennai and others because he is not the answer

[Thunderbolt]

Impressed with Blackmon today, hope it wasn't too soon to have him play after his knee injury......

[holeymoley99]

We should see more Tavon Wilson now too

Yep, more Hooker disrespect. I guess Rivers was dominant today, considering he's a 15+ yr vet. smh

I was thinking the same thing.  He seemed to be around the ball alot.

What has Hooker done to get any respect?

Not looking good for Hooker.

Exactly. He is not that good. He compiles a lot of his stats in the fourth quarter (like last week). But he does not do what it takes to win. 

 

We should not have traded Diggs. He and Thielen complemented each other well. I read that Diggs had 8 catches for 153 and 1 TD today.

Thankfully the Colts won...because I lost  several FF players today. 

[shasta519]

Blackmon at SS and a stud FS would be ideal.

[IinD]

To lazy to look it up, but is this the kid we drafted with a torn ACL? How did he recover so quickly?

I'm happy he did, but I remember the tv heads saying he'll need to redshirt this year because of the injury...

You’re correct. He had a surprisingly quick recovery during the summer. In fact he was able to return to practice back in August. He was ruled out for week 1, but here we are today.

Agree.  It is a great win for the Colts. However, they have no one outside of Thielen and I think he is over rated and we will see how good he is with Diggs gone. That being saif. Great D performance

Blackmon is small to try to play full time at SS.

He's in the last year of his contract,  and he is hurt.   I don't see that happening
