it will be interesting what shane comes up with if pitt cant go, been waiting for him to use more tight end passes

I agree. The lack of TE usage is surprising. I’m  hoping to see an uptick in touches there regardless of Pitt’s availability.

It's going to be tough to run against the Falcons.

 

Their run defense is ranked 3rd in the league and their corners are good.

 

I predict alot of short passing to get the ball out of minshews hands quickly 

We are going to have to create Turn Overs to win and I think we will. Their offense is bad at times. If Minshew doesn't Turn it Over, we should be fine.

I imagine we'll see a good mix of all available weapons. We've had good moments with our TEs the past couple of games. Shane is a "take what the defense gives us" type of guy. If the safeties play up for the run, we'll start throwing deep for example. 

 

Really the plan hasn't changed much throughout the season: Throw to score, run to win. 

 

That said, Steichen was on Pat's show yesterday and said Pittman is doing fine and is the toughest player on the team. I wouldn't be surprised if he's suiting up on Sunday.

what will the colts passing game plan be if pitt cant play sunday, more tight ends, more rb passes, another wr steps up? ideas?

Who knows

 

But.....  They will have to count on the other WRs and RBs

 

In the long run, this is good for the team.

      How to fix the colts

      By DougDew · Posted

      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.

      How to fix the colts

      By Zoltan · Posted

      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.

      Bears Colts predictions

      By Bearzzz · Posted

      Hey all, been a while. Not sure what to expect on Sunday, Bears offensive line has been horrible. I don't see them being in sync anytime soon. I think it'll be a close game with Colts winning at home.

      Denver is a huge market actually.  It covers the entire country west of KC, HOU, and DAL except the coast and provides many more opportunities for exposure than Indy.  I don't think Irsay cutting Peyton would have anything to do it.  I think Peyton teases that stuff sometimes just for a little attention.
