  1. 1. Who wins?

  2. 2. Do you still get pumped up when the Colts play the Patriots?

    • Of course! I am excited whenever the Colts face the Patriots. It is another chance to defeat the Pats.
    • No, the Pats are no longer our rivals.
    • Meh, the Patriots aren't any good.
    • Every football game involving the Colts excites me.

  3. 3. Bonus Question#1 : Do you think Belichick gets fired if the Patriots lose?

  4. 4. Bonus Question#2: After this game, the Colts will have a bye week. Do you believe that teams that play games outside the United States should have their bye weeks before or after the game?

    • The week before the game
    • The week after the game
    • Either the week before or the week after playing outside the USA (no other time)..
    • Having a game outside the United States should have no bearing on when a team's bye week is scheduled.

Is that a free pass to miss tackles? Leonard is getting paid that much and not missing as much as Franklin.

He also isn’t playing as many downs is he? I think he would be missing a lot more if he played more. JMO

He shouldn’t miss as many. I have expectations of Leonard based on how much he is paid. Franklin is different and gets paid differently.

The guy just got back from an injury that just as well may have ended his career. He's playing his first season in the scheme. Moore looked like crap last season too, but he and Bradley figured it out this season. Leonard has been our best LB going into this game, but sure, still not up to his old self. Maybe we should extend Leonard the same courtesy as Moore got, hm?

Minshew definitely looks scared back there.

 

 

If he can't stay under control a little more, we may need to go to Sam or Mond...

i think we'd lose this game before doing that tbh

Leonard -- Snaps: 406, Missed tackles: 4

 

Franklin -- Snaps: 565, Missed tackles: 13

 

Normalise Leornard's snaps to 565 and he'd have 5.57 missed tackles... it's not even in the same league...

Arguable he’s our best LB. Stats can be funny sometimes but eyeball test shows he isn’t the leader on that field. He doesn’t seem to care, gets mauled and then complains about being underused.

 

Hes not worth 100 million.

but do they count it as a missed tackle, if ur nowhere near the play? 

 

these stats can easily be explained to go either way 

 

and u know i generally agree with u solid

If he's no where near the play odds are it's not his play to make...

well that's not what i mean. 

 

Franklin is faster, and gets to the ball faster. 

 

so if he gets there first, or if leonard is not attempting first contact as often, those stats mean nothing

    • I'm very interested in Carlie's as well.  I'm just not sold on our starting LB core.
    • I also forgot to say I think Buffalo will also have a down year. 
    • Yeah North.....maybe I got confused about the Pittsburgh Pirates playing in the central.  But I think before realignment there were only 3 divisions, I think.. Like the Colts and Dolphins played in the East, the Raiders and Broncos played in the West and the Steelers and Brownies played in the Central.  But yeah my mistake the Steelers currently in the North division. 
    • I just wanted to give Pitt some love for his recent comments about Indy and family values. I also loved what he said about focusing on the long term financially and considering the situation youre in. He appreciates his place in the organization and that speaks volumes about him as a man. The Texans can have guys like Diggs, Im happy with Pitt. Just a top notch dude.    This is a place a lot of people love to hate on, for some reason. But he is living proof that all this rhetoric about how "nobody wants to live in Indiana" is just bonafied baloney. So many former players stick around here after retirement. There is a reason for that.    He is the exact kind of person you would think wouldnt like it here. Rich california kid whose father played in the NFL. Lives on a little farm in Indiana with his wife, who is also from California. And they both love it here.    Those huge cities are very over rated and it isnt for everyone. We just have to find people like Pitt who do and allow them to become pillars of the franchise. 
    • "I think he flashed last year and can add some value to the LB room."  And I also responded directly to the LB room question. I will simplify, he has a looooow ceiling.   So what's the Problem, why argue?
