This defense has done a 180 since the third quarter of the GB game.

Yeah, Gus learned what a blitz is

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

AR probably should have slid sooner. He had plenty and more for the first down. Lesson learned and I am sure Steichen will talk to him about it.

 AD Mitchell won't make it in this league if he's going to short arm every ball that will result in him getting hit. 

This 1000%. Love is separation but he has given up on routes and short arms balls in traffic. Hopefully he can work that out

You'll probably think this is negative  when it's just an objective question. 

 

When have you made a positive post about your supposed favorite team?

 

Great win against a good team and a historical rival and you and @Moosejawcoltchoose to have negative takes.  

 

Are your lives that miserable?  You can't ever be positive?   Are your memories of the "aggressive laugh emojis" still haunting you?

 

Most fans are happy after a win.   Not you.   You choose nonsense 

You are on a negativity roll tonight.  Just check out how many negative posts you write directly at other posters...to other people...just the last few pages even...but get all bothered over neutral posts about an impersonal entity like a team.   Its like you think me and @Moosejawcolt and some others are supposed to care about your opinion or something.

 

I have said before, just this season, 

• Josh Downs looks very good, but I haven't said that much because he hasn't played much. 
• JT has looked good, when he was playing.
• I liked it when JT bounced it outside last game.  I think it may have been the first time I saw him where he was closer to a sideline than a hashmark.  That was great.  
• AR looked good, when he was playing.  
• Steichen is a good coach and a great play caller, and uses JT wonderfully. 
• Gus is probably one of the best D coordinators in the NFL.  Just look at what he can do when the D is missing 2 of its highest paid stars.  I assume most folks here think Defo and Moore matter?
• I've liked Cross since the day he was drafted.
• I thought it was fine to not add secondary players during the offseason.

Lots of positive stuff.

I think AD is just not running his routes quite right. He doesn’t seem to be at the right spot at the right time. It will get there.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Still can’t believe colts got their LT in the third round.  How lucky was that. Rainmann is going to get paid after this season.

You mean our LBers finally snapped out of their funk…

My guess is they pay Rainmann and let Kelly walk.

 

one thing Ballard can do is OL.

 

Braden Smith a stud at RT, that was a second round pick that drew a ton of criticism at the time

Borttoloni was a 3rd

Rainmann was a 3rd 

 then Nelson,

 

a top rated OL for sure

Borttoloni was a 4th round pick - even more impressive. 
 

We need to figure out what’s going to happen with Freeland & Matt Goncalves. Can they both be our backup swing tackles? Can Matt slide to guard? 
 

Fries is going to want $12-$15 million a year come this offseason the way he is playing.

Knowing Borttoloni was from WI I shouldn’t have been so quick with starting him. They always produce good Oline and RB.

It’s going to be interesting if they pay fries. I think they are going to need to pay him.

He’s young and if he keeps playing this well Ballard has shown us he will pay his own.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

You know what’s great about the win. Now we can now sit back and hopefully make fun of the titans tomorrow night.

I only say this because of Gonclaves they drafted. Rainmann and fries should both get paid this offseason.  Dayo is a FA too. We need to bring him back as he is importsnt as a rotating piece.

What a truly awful announcing job on CBS today. Both guys constantly drooling over Pittsburgh and hating on the Colts. Even to the very end. The Colts had no business winning that game with the amount of injuries we had and then sustained in the game. That was a freaking amazing win.

Ehhh in the first half, they were doing that all over Pittman and AR and JT. I think they werent perfect but not beyond terrible

Gus didn’t learn what a blitz was. stealers were down 4 starting offensive lineman. I hate the stealers and will never capitalize it. Don’t come at me for grammar

It says very mild. From what I understand if it’s in the mild side he could still play next week.

Bo dislocated his hip. AR will be fine, he even said in post game, he could have came back in. 

 

That's Good news.

It didn't, Bo could not walk, Bo's came out of socket. Had AR had that happen, he would not been able run around and jump like he was doing. Like I said he wanted to come back in, some people are still Andrew paranoid lol. 

 

If Bo Jackson couldn't walk then how was he so good in Tecmo Bowl?

The most important part is that it’s a RAM 🐏

 

Best truck IMO! Been a Ram owner for 20+ years. Bought a new one in 2012 and then again in 2018 and had a 1998 ram before those. Only had to buy a new one again in 2018 because a front end loader in the gravel pits backed up into me caving the side of my truck in…I have PTSD every time I go to a gravel yard or the dump which I do a lot since I do construction.

Been touting Womack since we signed him, think David Long is going to help as well. Loved the T.B. pick, he is the future center and was getting great push today in his first start. Latu is really finding his groove.

Sprotac has us with around 55 mill in cap space next year. Looks to me we will let Kelly and MAC walk. Leaves us with Odeyingbo , Blackmon , Raimann, Fries , Speed and Sanchez .  Those 6 would pretty much eat the 55 mill. IMO opinion , Fries might make the OL as a whole too pricey . Will be an interesting off season.

[JediXMan]

This game we really missed Paye he was great at setting the edge and I think some of those Justin Fields runs would’ve got for less if he played.

[Robert Johnson]

Any win in the NFL is a good win.Any win over the steelers is a great win.

This is what I am expecting.  I am also wondering if Fries gets a nice little pay day.  I doubt he would get top dollar on the open market but hes become a really good guard.

Taylor already told Holder he’s fine pretty much the source here said he’s okay.  It’s not ideal but I don’t think it’s anywhere close to Buckner’s either.
