Updated Colts news

[w87r]

As long as Taylor keeps testing negative, he should be able to return.

 

Buckner seems to be asymptomatic and eligible to come back in Saturday along with Autry.

 

Colts optimistic that Kelly will be able to play.

 

 

Sorry if already posted, if not Id be surprised 

 

Most likely, but haven't delved through all threads.

 

Things are looking up for Texans game, even more so with Fuller out.

 i hope taylor doesnt keep testing positive bad news

[CR91]

That's good news. Add to the fact Fuller got suspended and we are looking good vs the texans

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Reich didn’t say If Buckner had symptoms. He just told what the rules were for asymtomatic and symptomatic. He said neither him nor Autry has had any setbacks. I hope Buckner doesn’t have symptoms.

Also Roby, their No 1. corner also suspended for the season.  That's two.  Could another be close behind?

Do I hear a Watson?

If we lose this week it would be the worst loss of the season IMO, the timing of it would be awful. They have more problems than we have and we do have the better team. Just can't overlook them.

For sure, but I do like our chances more with this development to finish the rest of the season 4-1.

Huh?

 

WTH?!?

 

I cant tell if this is what you meant to say, or if you expressed it wrong?   But I can’t figure  out what you were trying to say?   Care to take another swing at it?

He made a typo.  It happens,  I did it with Hawkins today rather than Hopkins. He clearly doesn’t mean for Taylor to keep testing positive.

That’s what I thought.   And I clearly understand the concept of typos.   I have way WAY too many in my posts and they drive me flipping crazy!   
 

Byt these days, I never feel confident about what somebody meant to say.   I’ve been wrong in my guesses far more often than I would’ve thought possible.

 

But thanks for the help.   Always appreciated!

I actually had the typo in the OP(and fixed it). I said if Taylor continues to test positive(instead of negative)he should be back.

I agree - If we get Buckner Autry, Kelly and Taylor back.

[DaColts85]

As of right now a big Colts News update is we might be without AC for a game or more.  La'Raven Clark has shown nothing but bad play at LT so I hope we can finish the season strong and stay in the playoff run.

I don’t know why so many people point to another team and say we should be in good shape because they are without player/a XYZ. When is the last time the team has taken advantage of a team without their A players on the field. How many third string tackles have we exposed? Then ask yourself the question from our team missing a guy, the position gets exposed. That’s coaching and I’m telling you, Reich just isn’t the guy to get this team into the SB. The seat should start warming up for FR. His team seems very inconsistent week in and week out.

Only in this forum does Franks seat get warm.

 Reich and Ballard are 100% safe but Eberflus could possibly be replaced by next year

Maybe so, but don't get the idea that we would change schemes back to a 34.  It would take more years to rebuild to that again. 

 

We're going to be a 43 zone.  That ship has sailed.

True.  Flus may be a hot commodity for head coach somewhere 

[danlhart87]

If Broncos fire him what about Fangio as DC next year if Colts move on from Eberflus

Frank Reich is a great coach, has the respect of his staff and players. He would be the perfect role model for our children BUT the only scenario that I hate about him is his PLAYCALLING, He has shown some improvement the last 2-3 games but has a long way to go..

Rivers does not seem to have the ability to read defenses, still locks in on the receiver he is going to throw to. AND what is readily apparent they have no concept of a 2-minute offense, no huddle and efficiently using the clock.  I kind of like bringing Brissett in on short yardage situations (why was he not in the game for the 2-point conversion?)  

In my opinion Frank Reich's play calling is the biggest hindrance to this team making the play-offs

I actually think we should be able to retain Flus. I see Arthur Smith, OC from Tennessee as a hotter commodity in the offseason, and there will be others sought after as well to where I could see Flus being one of the lower tier candidates.

Please tell me you're not still salty about the titans game. You obviously don't understand Buckner's importance not to mention to importance of Okerke, Kelly, and AC

How is Flus a hot coaching candidate in people’s minds? How many teams are looking for a guy who can’t seem to develop first half plans but adjusts well in the second half? I just can’t understand this theory. 

[Arodgers12]

Pulling for y’all. I hope you guys at least make the playoffs.

Dude, they were using a third string left tackle if I’m not misunderstanding and we couldn’t offset this? It seems too often everyone just glosses over other teams overcoming their big loss and makes up for it in some way, we always want to use the crutch of well this guy is out or that guy is out. It’s more than Titans game, this team has been a roller coaster ride all year from reading articles and these forums.  Very inconsistent. Did Turay contribute yesterday? Who else went up against the LT spot? Did anyone get pressure on their QB? Apologists in here.

Fangio runs a 3-4 not Ballard's style

Kevin Bowen mentioned that he has been a name Houston has been following awhile.

Eh, Fangio's scheme is more of a multiple front where the base run is mostly a 3-4 alignment, but otherwise it's more of a 4-3 under. It's definitely much different than the scheme we run. It's much more complex and has a lot of "if this/then this" components. I'm not entirely sure that a shift to Fangio's scheme would be ideal for the strengths of our defense.
