People complain just to complain

Manning led this team to dominance for years and people whined constantly about having an average D.

 

Now the D for a change is playing well but all people wanna do is complain about Rivers. 

 

I understand the frustration as a fan but you gotta learn to take it like a champion.

 

You cant win them all and its not the end of the world when the Colts lose.

We're American, it's definitely in our DNA :)...

 

I agree though. I'd be a bit more annoyed if we were front runners, but in reality NOBODY is picking us for a SB except Colts fans.

 

Just enjoy the season is my motto. It's gone before you know it every year. 

 

Next stage will be the 'let's tank' talk as soon as we hit .500.

Dan, you know that it is how it is around here haha . After we beat the Bengals, the same people will say we are SB bound lmao

honestly, even the complaining is a nice change of pace from real life these days

Yeah I don't even mind it either. This place actually gets my mind off the Covid and the election, etc.. We still have a good team to boot, can't lose to the Bengals though. We lose to the Bengals, my guess is you will be deleting some posts Lmao Lol GIF by Originals

People 100% appreciated the Peyton years and how fun it was. However, wishing they won more rings, being upset with the lack of supporting defense and voicing that frustration isn’t whining. 
 

People not liking what they see from the offense especially the QB and voicing that isn’t a problem. If someone feels they’ve seen enough of Rivers already, they can def voice that. Just like you can voice your trust in Reich, Ballard, and Rivers etc...

 

Not singing the same tune as you isn’t whining.

Honestly, I enjoyed the Browns game.  We weren't good enough but it wasn't boring

Way too much boredom these days.

You're right though.......because I enjoyed the peace and happiness around here after the bears game.

    • In a year when the Colts were in serious need of a QB and in position to draft one, Ballard came up in front of the media 3 days before the draft and straight up said something to the effect of "That guy everybody in media is talking about(Levis), we are not taking him". I don't know why you think the Colts are trying to throw us off the scent this year specifically. They are not trying to give us away the pick(thus the vagueness), but I also don't really think they are trying to mislead anybody. This usually becomes specifically apparent in retrospect after the draft when you look back at a lot of those quotes in the videos they release pre-draft... and they were talking precisely about players we ended up drafting, which they reveal in the post-draft video by extending some of those quotes(they did that with AR last year for example).    And about why people are doing it(guessing who they are talking about) - because it is fun. Nobody has the illusion that we will be right in our guesses 100% of the time... or anywhere close really... but it's still fun. And it's part of why the Colts release those videos with those quotes - to create engagement with the fanbase... part of which, and the entirety of which that 70 pages thread and whole board is about in the offseason. is to guess who the Colts might take and how they might feel about specific prospects.
    • Sir, I was just trying to help you out. No good deed goes unpunished! 
    • Not the least bit surprised to hear from you at this moment.   You see me in an uncomfortable conversation (with a moderator no less) and you seize the moment to take a shot at me.  And you try to act like you’re giving me a sincere explanation of what you’re doing.   Like you have an ounce of credibility with me.      This is not the first time you’ve done this.  While I may not be surprised, I’m certainly disappointed.   
    • Things have now gone from bad to worse.     After I explained myself, I was kind of hoping you’d simply come back with “I’m sorry, I misunderstood you,  may bad.”  And we’d be done with this.  It would be over.      But instead, you double down on the roommate issue and follow up by questioning everything I said by breaking down some of my comments and what you think I really meant by them.     In other words, you’re telling me my motive, my meaning, as if you know my meaning better than I do.    It’s interesting to me…. I was recently told there’s an unofficial moderator policy:  don’t attack the poster, attack the argument.    Well, I don’t see that here.  You attacked me personally the first time and instead of a simple apology, you’ve double downed on a bad hand by attacking me personally AGAIN.      Why you’re comfortable telling me you know my meaning , my intention, better than I do is mystifying to me.  And frankly, I think you’re comfortable doing this because one of us is a moderator, and it certainly is NOT me.     I’ll say it again: you misunderstood my meaning, and intention,  the first time, and you’ve misunderstood me even worse the second time.   As I said before, I’m happy to withdraw and apologize for “go figure”, but the negative inference was not my intention.  Poorly phrased, I give you (in two posts now).   I don’t know what else to say…. I’m hoping this brings this very unfortunate exchange to an end.       
    • I don't think Worthy is a good fit for Richardson's skill set. Think tall with a large catch radius for Richardson to be successful. I don't think u pair a smurf wr with a qb who may have accuracy issues. That's just me
