Your Indianapolis Colts travel to Houston to play their second intra-divisional game, this time against the Texans.

 

 

Both teams are starting rookie quarterbacks and have first-year head coaches and looking to win their first game of the 2023 season.

 

Final Injury Reports

Hopefully you will see a lot of Zack Moss and the running game will be improved.

 

The Texans seem to be have a lot of missing pieces. Several of their offensive linemen are on IR. In addition, per the Texans SB Nation site, Battle Red Blog,

 

Quote

 

Left Tackle Laremy Tunsil (Knee) QUESTIONABLE

Safety Jalen Pitre (Chest) OUT

Safety Jimmie Ward (Hip) OUT

Linebacker Neville Hewitt (Illness) QUESTIONABLE

Quarterback C.J Stroud (Shoulder) QUESTIONABLE

 

 

Many are surprised to see Stroud on the Final Injury Report but he is expected to play.

 

What are your thoughts on this game?

 

Cheer for your team and enjoy the game. Good Luck! :colts:

We are probably better off if Stroud plays, if Davis Mills plays he will turn into Dan Marino against us, never fails chuckling homer simpson GIF

 

Are you feeling good about this game? Former NFL Quarterback JT O'Sullivan loves the play designs in the Colts offense. Did you see his breakdown of Richardson's play in the first game? Be sure to check it out. It is in the Colts Football section here.

 

The game will not be showing near me. The Raiders @ Bills game will be shown here before we get the two late afternoon games featuring our local teams. I won't be here. Enjoy!

I feel pretty good about it but we need to play disciplined and not turn the ball over. We start doing dumb stuff, than the game could go bad.

    • Feel the need to clarify something.   The writer of the article, Bob McGinn, is one of the top-10 football writers there is.  (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) McGinn does NOT have an opinion on Mitchell.  It’s the unnamed scouts who have the negative opinions.  McGinn is quoting them which is his job.  He is supposed to do that.     Ballard even acknowledged that in his own way.  He literally said “put your name on it!”   Well, McGinn’s name IS on it.  it’s his column.   But it’s the scouts who are saying things anonymously.   If there’s an issue, (if) it’s with them, not McGinn.     
    • And when/if a team signs one of those safeties they’ll be made to look like a genius while Ballard is called a fool.    I think what’s more likely is that an injury will inevitably happen and a team will bring in an available free agent. That could be training camp. That could early in the season. You just never know. 
    • But if the Colts sign someone next week or the week after then it really doesn’t matter.    I would’ve preferred we sign some two weeks ago.   Get them familiar with the DC and position coach.   But once we didn’t then it really doesn’t matter when.  It just matters that we do it before camp opens.  At least to me.    And the fact no one else is signing these top FA safeties tells me the market just isn’t there yet.   I’m preaching a healthy dose of patients.  
    • How about getting a proven commodity in the FA market? I know that assumes the player wants to be here, but money talks and the Colts have some. This D needs a solid center fielder. Simmons fits that role perfectly. If he’s gettable, here’s to Ballard pulling the trigger, even if it’s a slight overpay. The team CANNOT leave this crucial position to players who have consistently underperformed in the past (Cross and Thomas). 
    • All - this is the real question.   What do the 32 GMs in the league know that the rest of us (we're on the outside looking in) don't know?   Answer that question and you'll have what you need to analyze the choices made by the leadership of your favorite team.
