I was stunned to hear the news on Friday. She lives in KY so I haven't had a real close relationship with her but wish I would have. She wanted to be cremated. I have an uncle that lives down there and he and I talk a lot on the phone. My biological Father was cremated too, no funeral or anything. He passed away 4 years ago, doesn't seem like it. That crushed me for a while and I still think about him a lot. My father was something else, he told me son, just have me cremated when I pass, it will save you money and the grief being around people. He is right, thanks Pops. My uncle is a huge Tennessee fan, he is probably crying after they laid an egg at Cleveland yesterday . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lollygagger8 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Matt Gay = worth every penny Brents looks legit That Minshew pass to Moss was money!! Minshew is a tough dude - hats off to him and his play Moss did a stellar job against a great defense Great job by our O-line (except for those 3 unblocked sacks which were maddening) Leonard looks cooked That lady announcer sounded like a girl version Bob Euchre from Major League LOL Steichen is the real deal!

You can see in this media age how ex players carve out newer and newer possibilities for themselves after their career and Indy simply isn't that location. Simply put Indy has never been attractive enough as an athletic location, not even w Manning or Luck, you need to have a certain type of character and that's exactly what Ballard has been aiming at ever since he took over. I believe he understood from the beginning that the Colts need to overpay to attract players elite or average(like Funchess) and its better to self develop and add if an opportunities arises but it is rare. Anyway, that's my view on it. And you may not be wrong. I’m sure there is a bunch of factors besides just being a contender. But being a contender gives you more opportunities to attract FA that might otherwise not even answer the phone call. then the other thing, more and more, we’re seeing people making a living off of Tik tok, instagram etc where location really doesn’t matter as much as it did even 5 years ago.

I get why you'd say that, but I think it does and McAfee has talked about the disadvantages of staying in Indianapolis as well. Fact of the matter is, there are just a lot more opportunities for everything on the coasts. That being said, AR is gonna be as good of an FA magnet as there can be in Indianapolis and first job would be to extend JT if he still wants to be here. Definitely exciting times ahead.

She was bad, she has done Cubs as well (so I know her background well) and it is like listening to your grandma talk softly and ranting about nothing . She also tends to have her favorites; she was rooting for the Ravens yesterday and it was obvious. Every time they would make a big play she got excited, when we did it was low key. When Tucker missed that kick, she was real quiet. Just things I pick up on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlue4ever Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Great Win! It’s so fun to watch this team play. Minshew and Moss continue to deliver. Our defense is bending and not breaking, Gay was Clutch all day! My biggest concern is from a group that we all had higher expectations for, the tight ends. I was disappointed not to see Mallory active today and the production from the other 3 just wasn’t there today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BProland85 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Biggest needs next offseason are at RT, WR, and CB. Braden needs to be moved to RG as he’s not a good RT anymore, and we need another longterm WR on the outside opposite Pittman. Pierce should be our WR4. He’s not where he needs to be yet. Brents looks promising at CB and Moore is a good nickel corner but need more talent there. This is assuming JT stays with Indy btw. If he doesn’t that position becomes a need as well.

AV vs the ravens in 07 to get us to the AFCCG is number one. AV 3 kicks in a blizzard including the game winner a couple years after that Matt Vs the Ravens yesterday is how I’d rank it I was responding that (Gay's kicking) may have been the best that I have watched, was meant as more of "a matter of my opinion". And not simply based on statistics. The game you picked (2007) AV hit on FGs from: 23 yards 42 yards 51 yards 48 yards 35 yards In the 2007 game the Colts held the lead throughout. I believe, Gay's hitting all four from 50+, when coming from behind, and the game winner, in OT was better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On one play, late in the game, I saw Mo get bowled right over trying to block, I plan to watch the game again and will take notice how the TEs performed.

2006Coltsbestever Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 It is tough to be announcer, I always wanted to do radio, maybe still will 1 day. Beth has a decent voice but unless you are announcing for a certain team you can't play favorites. She does that. If I was a Colts broadcaster, I could then show bias of course like Lamey did. When you are on TV being regional, you can't do that. She has done Cubs games and I can tell she isn't a true Cubs fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a easy schedule we could make some noise. A win next week and going 3-1 the first quarter would be remarkable. Moss is going to wear down. We need to give him relief. Taylor and moss will be a good backfield. I believe your correct after watching the game I did see moss start to slow down which means injury could happen. If correct they just promoted someone off the practice squad who might help with some of the carriers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
