Yep.  Hey I am not going to argue with it.

 

I like pinning opponents against their own end zone. There are more of opportunities to make big plays for defensive scores, and if the opponents have to punt, it gives the team better field position.

Similar to last game hopefully we keep the same energy. Their DBs are struggling.

Difference was that all came in about five minutes, not unlike the two Steelers scores today, today it felt like the Colts took over the game after the Steelers had a good drive and a fluky score.

On a side note I think Minshew has had a decent game so far. 

I’d say he’s had a great game.  His had one pass tipped and one kinda what are you doing throw but other than Watt just owning Freeland a few times which isn’t on Minshew he’s played about as good as you can ask for.

Olave

Carr

Cooper

Purdy 

Just to name a few lol

That’s nice,  now make a list of the guys who have missed a game, it’s significantly longer.

We need Matt Gay to settle down and refocus… got a feeling we’re gonna need him big time this 2nd half

I think he has.  He’s done better since he hit the first extra point.  I am hoping that got his confidence back.

I don't think players should be rushed back if they have sustained concussions.

And that’s why you take the FG.  Relying on this defense for anything is playing with fire

 

THIS team being conservative with so so talent and a bunch of backups would NOT even be in the playoff race!!!! Shane has been aggressive ALL season so keep doing what we do! That was his staple in Philly that rode it all the way to the SB! The mindset that Shane is establishing will do wonders once the talent level of the team elevates. That SAME mindset is also WHY we LEAD at halftime!!! Go Colts!

Why is he the exception? Because he's a better player his brain is less susceptible to concussions? Or is it favoritism by the league?

He’s one of the very few players to have ever returned for the next game after getting concussed

This is a fair statement and a good post.

I don't think they should either.. but why were those rushed? That's all I'm saying.. 

 

I hear you. Speaking of concussions, I wonder if Hayden Hurst has returned to play. He had a concussion about 4 weeks ago. He was still having amnesia after 2-3 weeks.

    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him. 
    • Hmmm.   ”Healthy excuses will be hard to come by.”    Really?   Richardson, who had less than a thousand snaps in college, then had roughly 200 snaps his rookie year.  There’s one.   And Houston has Stroud who had a great rookie year.  Aren’t most media predicting Houston and JVille ahead of Indy this year?  That’s two without any trouble.     I just think insisting on a division title because a fan thinks it’s time doesn’t stand up to much scrutiny.   Sorry, just my two cents…. And often not worth that much.   
    • For me absolutely it does. If Richardson stays healthy excuses will be hard to come up with. As positive as I am with Ballard at some point we have to start winning. He bet on himself by bringing in his own home grown talent this year, what he does at safety in the coming month and a half has me worried as well. We were so close to winning the division last year with a back up QB that my expectation is winning the AFC south this year.    If they make it into the wild card game and lose then the seat is just as hot for me. If they advance further and make a Cinderella run then I’m fully back on board.
    • 3 straight losses for the Reds. They have their moments where they play well. But it’s time to be real. They aren’t a playoff team and will never be as long as the Castillinis own them and David Bell is manager.    De La Cruz is fun, but his career will be wasted on this team. 
    • Am I reading this correct?   You think Ballard’s seat gets hot if the Colts don't win the AFC South?  Really?   So if the Colts don’t win the south but make the playoffs Ballard’s seat still gets hot?    Just making sure I understand your viewpoint.
