Minshew looks good. He isn’t going to go downfield but he will dink and dunk.

As you’d expect an experienced QB to be vs the worst team in the NFL last years back ups in a no game plan pre-season.  Still I’d say Minshew is better than any QB the Colts had last year.

Paye has been out there?

Maybe the 1st snap?

 

I know he went out quickly if so though. Because announcers said Lewis was in on like 2nd or 3rd play.

Is Winfree gonna take the last receiver spot from Strachan or are both more likely practice squad stashes?  

Winfree definately is making a case for that last spot. Might not even need Washington...

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Minshew can be fun to watch.

[JlynRN]

Sure wish I could see the game.  How are the guys looking so far?

[GoColts8818]

Two guys that have stood out in back-to-back games.  Jackson (a guy some just keep writing off here) and Stuart who is emerging as a linebacker not just a special teams guy which is good.

[Solid84]

Nice hit by Cross

[holeymoley99]

MAC is in big big trouble,maybe we get a 5 or 6 round pick for him but Granson,Woods,Mallory,Ogletree all seem above him at this point. 

Bagent's dad an arm wrestling monster

I should have listed Cross as well, when I mentioned guys who have impressed in back-to-back weeks.

Challenges in the pre-season should be outlawed.

As he should be.  There is a reason the Colts keep drafting tightends.

[Solid84]

Trivia: Tyson Bagent is Travis Bagent's son - a pro arm-wrestler.

Especially with him being injured.

Mo really disappointed me last year. He had every opportunity to grab the TE1 job, but he just fell through.

Easily.  But, this team and staff are so different.

He's huge.

there really are negative people in every thread, regardless of the situation. who cares if fans are excited to see a new look colts, even if it is against the Bears in preseason?

 

 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Cutting Cox I think saves 6 million.

[GoColts8818]

I know we talk a lot about the back up oline being bad but the back up DTs spots are pretty much nonexistent on this team.

Enough to sign a vet O Lineman

isnt it a 2M save, and a 6M dead hit? or something like that.

[w87r]

Minshew is 13-15 107yds TD 118.6 QB rating right now.

[Solid84]

Brents slowed that screen right down.

[richard pallo]

We sure are struggling against a 4th string quarterback.

Bryan was a 16 game starter in Clev last year,

That’s nice.  I was talking about performance.  They aren’t very good.

Just under $3m this year.

 

Would knock $5.9m off of next year's cap.

Slicing and dicing. He just puts it where there is a open man.

[compuls1v3]

Brents getting picked on?

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I kind of like that we only have 3 QB on the roster. That way we don’t have to watch so’e no name bad 4th guy.

Good.  Good experience for him.  See if he steps it up.

[GoColts8818]

Jones is quietly having a very nice camp and pre-season.

[w87r]

Nice closing speed by Jones

Johnson and A.A. arent plying well and likely need more time. Think Bryan sees many snaps rotating in with Stewart and Lewis will see more time inside then out this year

Yeah, plus he has only been back on the field for couple weeks. Still getting back in game form.

[AKB]

Stuard is a beast man. 

[w87r]

Jonessss

[GoColts8818]

Some of this is just this Bears QB making great throws.

[AKB]

Jones playing better than Brents so far

[Smoke317]

Bagent can have Sam’s roster spot tomorrow
