Are you meeting any other fans from this forum? It sounds like many will be there.

 

Enjoy it!

I can’t believe it’s here:

A win would be great, but I mostly just want to see a Colts team looking like they knew they were playing a game today - unlike under Reich, when they consistently looked unprepared.

 1/3

 The most experienced, Greatest QB's of All-time completed about 66%.

   I have been anguished over so many painful drops and near misses for 56 years that I am going to be just fine with AR's learning curve.

 Manning 100 Int.s in his first 5 years won't be challenged and he won't throw nothing like the 100 mph fastballs that Elway did for 15 years.

 The Big Question for me is, how long before the NFL changes the rule for pushing him for first downs.  Will we have 50+ this season. It wouldn't shock me.

Thanks again for opening the thread, NFLfan!

Can't believe the Steichen/Richardson era officially open today.  I think this could be a match made in heaven.  All the possibilities align.  Will be a bumpy ride, but a fun one to see taking shape and strides.

 

This team is young and their head coach is fiery.  I expect them to play with a LOT of energy and comoradery(sp?) early i n the season.  !at not result in a lot of wins, but it WILL be fun to see.

Go Colt!  All day.  Every day. 

 

(Good luck today against the Bucks.  Go Vikes!)

There is lots of optimism in Colts Nation! You have a young head coach, a fairly young team and a very young QB with so much potential -- that is a lot to be excited about.

This game and this thread as the game goes on will be interesting all day long .

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

So according to Irsay the roof will be closed because it’s 80 degrees. Lol. My guess is they don’t want a rookie dealing with the shadows on the field.

[Chrisaaron1023]

What up bros and sis! Can't wait to whine cry and cheer together with y'all fools! 

 

Happy week 1!!

This is either going to be a surprising win or a bad loss. This thread will be comical here in a while.

Finally football is back!

I don’t like those, either.  :^)

There are no bad losses this year unless there is major injury. This should be a stress-free year for Colts fans. Enjoy the ride -- good or bad.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Colts kept 3 QB but made Sam inactive when you get the roster exception. Weird.

[Fluke_33]

It’s offensive play will be a designed pass that breaks down and AR scrambles for 20+ yds 

 

1st def play Shaq gets a turnover either punches the ball out or int. 

[holeymoley99]

Jackson or Hull.

[IinD]

Colts football is back...

 

It's all positive vibes.... Until we're down 3 and want to blow everything up...

[Indyfan4life]

Brents inactive due to…personal reason?

[ColtsGermany]

Finally the season starts! Looking forward to a wild and entertaining season for the colts! 

And of course looking forward to seeing them play in Germany! 

 

Btw: We (Germany) are Basketball World champions! So the day started great.... And will get better in little more than half an hour!

Fresh home of an early morning 18 holes.

 

4 pars and a birdie. I'll take it.

Potentially that is the process. Not active on initial 46, then can be emergency. Same with an OLman right.

 

Hayes is probably emergency.

Hmm that could be. But I wouldn’t think they would be announced as a inactive but you might be right. Guess we will see if we see him dressed.

He is in the building. Probably because of practice time he missed.

No, it was perfect.

 

Was first group out, so no one in front of us to slow us down.

[2006Coltsbestever]

On the Poll I went AR5

[JlynRN]

Afternoon Colts fans !!  I am sooooo excited to finally have Colts football back. It's been a long off season.

 

Looking forward to a good game today and hoping for a win.
