Yep, looks like it.

 

1st team D did really well!

I suspect the offense will be too.  End the pre-season on a high.  Great Grover series and then TD drive for the offense.

[GoColts8818]

I like Thomas.  The rest of the second string defense…well they are on the field.

Didn't Reich say they'd play up to a half?

How much time left?

Things can and do change.

Early second quarter.

Looks like he's the only one on the field...

[Happy2BeHere]

Our second unit defense has a lot left to be desired…

Okay technically they are on the field or at least guys wearing blue shirts are 

[richard pallo]

Is Brady still playing?

Nope. Gabbert in

Is it me or did Domann and Weatherford look really bad on those running plays?

Venturi did a good job of explaining what was going on.  The Bucs got the line blocked and the linebackers were over perusing and getting killed on the cut back.  So to answer your question yes.

[GoColts8818]

This will be important for Patmon Strachan and Coutee.  Two spots for three guys.

[GoColts8818]

Interesting that Lindsay is now behind Jackson on the depth chart.  Ive had a feeling Jackson would have a good shot at staying for special teams but I figured Lindsay was a lock.  Could be they keep three and Lindsay is gone.

[Solid84]

I think Coutee will get one of them. He plays ST the others don't. I think that's what going to tip the scales. Rather have Patmon and Strachan on O though...

[GoColts8818]

Matt Ryan more mobile than Foles lol.

Haack quieting peoples concerns about punter.

Yeah, literally said "That was optimistic, Foles" out loud.

Thanks for the gift Buffalo

Running backs get hurt all the time.  I would keep 4.

He’s looking solid

[bestQBever]

Wow Haack is a really good replacement for Rigo

[GoColts8818]

Much better Weatherford.

I think he likes playing indoors.

Wouldn’t be shocked, lindsay has really fallen off the map since his first few years

Yeah it will depend on if numbers allow it.  If they keep 3 QBs that body will have to come from somewhere.

Yeah Haack is looking solid. 
 

I wonder what will happen if he kills it this season. Will Rodrigo have competition? Maybe Haack goes back to Buffalo?

Heck if I had to kick in Buffalo in December I’d like kicking anywhere else too lol.

I believe most punters probably do

Solids punt returns and kick coverage tonight.

Thomas and Grover made good impressions on defense.  Jackson looked pretty good.  Matt Ryan looks like Matt Ryan which is good.  Pittman looked pretty good which at times he looks like the only WR with the ones.  So there have been some bright spots but yeah Haack has been the first half stand out.

[JediXMan]

Keke looks decent as a returner.

[skerfalcon8710]

Pretty full stadium for a 3rd preseason game.

Yep that final WR cut might be the hardest one they have to decide.  It will probably come down to who think they can get back on the PS.

[GoColts8818]

Other than Pittman no WR has been able to get separation tonight.

[Solid84]

Yeah Woods!

Still think we will make a move for a veteran WR.

 

[skerfalcon8710]

Woods is legit gigantic 

[Solid84]

Good job keeping it alive. Keep going O!

[GoColts8818]

I’ll say the Colts with Dulin, Hines, and Campbell the Colts screen game could be deadly.  I look forward to the play action to Taylor fake pass to Hines throw back the other way to Dulin/Campbell that Frank uses at some point this season.
