Your Indianapolis Colts take a short trip to Cincinnati to play the Bengals. This game is crucial for both teams, as each is vying for a playoff berth. 

 

 

Final Injury Report

Only two players, Colts RB Jonathan Taylor and OT Braden Smith, are officially ruled out by the time of the writing of this post. Buckner did not practice Friday. CB Brents, LB E.J. Speed and DE Ameer Speed are questionable.

 

No Bengals are out, but WR Tyler Boyd, DE D.J. Reader and OT D'Ante Smith are questionable.

 

What are your thoughts on this game?

Some here are fans of both teams. Who are you rooting for?

This is a battle of backup QBs. Who do you expect to play better?

 

Good luck! This should be a fun one to watch. Enjoy it. :colts:

Thanks again for opening the thread, NFLfan!  Good luck today against those pesky Raiders.

 

I voted

Our defense is better - Corners will have good day today.

1 TD - Moss has a huge day

1 or 2 sacks - we will stop the run today.

Colts win.  30 - 27.

 

LB's have have a good game today for us to win.  I hear from Bengals fans that TBE like to use screens and passes in the flat, which we are historically terrible at covering.

Go Colts!  All day.  Every day.  :coltshelmet:

Yeah, AFCS doesn't get much respect from around the league/media. Labeled that most years, can't say it this year. Probably won't be able to say it for a while in all honesty.

 

3 in the playoffs currently, and 1 team that still, no one still to play, despite their record. Hopefully the Titans can pull off a couple victories for us down the stretch.

Jags @ Browns...I'm still on the fence.

If Trevor plays then maybe I pull for them?  If not, then I pull for the Browns?

 

If we lose today I pull for the Jags?  If we win today then I pull for the Browns?

 

I'm so torn, haha.

I look at it this way, we just need to continue to win, I would much rather be a divisional champ than a wild card(both options are more than in the table now). Clearly will be happy with either though.

 

As long as we stay in front of Texans in the division, we should be fine in any tie breaker, 3 or more teams for the WC 

 

Jag loss and Colts win and we are tied. They have the tie breaker, but have the Ravens next week. Can easily be division leaders next weekend, if we handle our business and Jags lose twice(very realistic proposition).

Pulling for Browns...I want that title and home game (Though we are plying better on road so far).

I can never, ever “pull” for Jacksonville.  Well, Unless against NE in an AFCG.

i root for the AFC south when the colts are out of the playoff race,

 

i do this because our division got disrespected for being "one of the worst in football: for so many years. So i like to watch AFC south teams smack other teams in the mouth when our Colts are out of the big race.

    • I agree to  point, it depends upon what the demands are.  But Mannings should have the clout to influence, maybe not control, Arch's destiny (if he's going to be that good, we don't know that yet).  And in a way, I'm not sure the NFL FO would get in the way a lot as to not see one of its potential stars....in terms of play and name legacy...get ruined by a bad organization and out of the NFL in a short time.   I think the chances of your prognostication happening are decent.  It will be interesting.
    • I think the  Peyton would not  want him going to Indy. You would have the never ending comparisons and I believe that was part of Eli not wanting to play for the Chargers. I could be wrong but I believe they wanted him in the NFC. The bigger point is also that if it came to be that  the Colts had the pick when Manning was available. That would also be an indication that the Colts would be a dumpster fire and they would probably want no part of it.  Based on wins, losses, lack of play off success, FO office drama. I bet the Colts has lost some of it's value. Sure it is still worth billions but no doubt the shine is no longer there
    • No, and this is not news.  For a while, folks have been leaning on the Buckner trade as being a great (use of) pick.  But Buck was known as a very good NFL player already, which is not the same thing as using picks on college players you think should be good.  The college evaluation/valuation process has not been good.  That's pretty evident, IMO.
    • Easiest way to fix the Colts defense is to fire Gus Bradley. First it was Michael Lombardi (who I generally don't agree with) who said that Gus defense is simple and now even JJ Watt has said that he runs a defense that doesn't make adjustments for the opponent and defensives that that don't do that generally fail in the NFL. It's interesting to see two weeks in and more and more people are coming out and saying that " Bradley's system is ineffective."   It won't help us much this year but I do believe that Bradley's system is holding back the talent on the defense and him having favorites puts blinders on improving positions (Facyson).
    • When  it is his draft year, he will most likely be the number 1 pick if he continues to excel. There is not doubt in my mind that if the team that is picking is a complete dumpster fire. The Mannings will pull another Eli. They will have a lot of control and the team that is drafting him will have to give into the Manning's recommendations. Thats the way it should be. I always said Bryce Young would be a bust due to his body makeup. That being said, he is getting no help in Carolina and it basically looks like his career is over after only 2 years. This will not happen to Manning. I bet if  Manning's draft year next  was in 2025 and Carolina had the pick.  The Mannings would probably have a list of demands before even entertaining the thought of Manning going there and that is the way it should be.
