Yeah I don’t get Frank’s fascination with Hines up the middle.  They want him to be something they have in Taylor...

It's great to see TY having a big game. 

 

The use of Taylor and the running game is puzzling. 

 

This is what I don't get... we see what works and what doesn't.

 

TY on intermediate routes is working beautifully.  PA passes to the RB on the outside is working beautifully.

 

Short passes/screens are not working.  Hines/Wilkins up the middle is not working.  Yet Reich keeps calling Hines up the middle...

 

Just do what works until they commit to stopping it!  Feed TY on the intermediate routes, and get the ball to the RBs on the edge.  :dunno:

They have been feeding Hines up the gut all year and it hasn’t worked and I’ve been yelling stop it all year.  I don’t get it other than when you ask the Colts about Hines they think he’s an every down runner and they seem determined to be right about it.  Coaches get that way sometimes and it’s frustrating.

When I saw it in real time it looked pretty tacky but I thought to myself there's a 90% chance they're going to call that. 

I just wish they would call it both ways. I am not saying we don't hold or block in the back but so do other teams. In that GB game like today with Houston they are getting away with it.

    • Link to article   This guy likes what how Ballard has built the Colts. The Colts are far from being mediocre. JMO
    • I almost spit my coffee out reading this a few times, lol!  I love sarcasm and I especially love it when there is some truth to it!  Well played Sir!
    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him.
