I'm tired of the cliches I've heard the past 12 years or so, here are a few of my pet peeves, please add your own and let's see how many we can quote.

That's on me.

We gotta get that cleaned up.

We gotta do a better job.

We have the right guys in the locker room.

We gotta get that fixed.

We're better than that.

We got a lot to correct.

It's early, there's a lot of football left.

Every coach on the losing end has the same responses. They must be in the coaching handbook.

I like who we got.

We have to execute better.

We're gonna evaluate that.

We feel good about......

What about wood chopping? oh thats different coach

There's a big difference between learning to play the game and learning to win games. The Colts never seem to get past learning (or trying) to play the game (chopping wood and every other cliche you can think of). It's been that way for years now with several different coaches and general managers. You can lose a team through continually losing games.  We've seen that happen over and over again.

    • I get your points. And yes Steichen is a good coach and I'm glad he's here. It's just my personal feeling,or impression, that the first 2 games,he wasn't as good as last season. It's not that I wanted him to be gone. About the Def: again, a personal feeling. I don't like the way this defense is run with Gus. Sure, there were years that have been worse. But is that an excuse to be happy with any defensive scheme or coach to be slightly better then 20 years ago? Not for me. I don't have sky high expectations. I know this is a season to figure things out for AR and get him experience he needs. I said it in another thread during the summer, that it's basically his rookie season and got blasted for that statement from some users.   Again,those are my personal feelings and I just think despite all things regarding a rookie qb, this team could, or in some points should, do better.
    • Dan you never pick us lol. Are you trying reverse psycology . I am going Colts again because I can't see us going 0-3 and the Bears have struggled on offense. Colts win 24-17. 
    • @Moeis kicking my butt so far, @John Hammondsis doing really well too.Then there are several bunched up.   My picks this week: Jets Browns Saints Texans Bucs Packers Colts  Steelers Seahawks  Raiders 49ers Lions  Ravens  Chiefs  Bills Bengals
    • I had 10, so at 0-2 it looks a bit dicey but the schedule at the end of the season gets much easier.
    • I am still in the wait and see camp on Gay.  I’ll agree he hasn’t lived up to his contract so far, although he hasn’t been as awful as some make him out to be either, but his contract also makes it hard to release him right now.  Also, if he’s been legit injured that could very well explain his struggles.  Just wait and see for me.
