I know there’s a lot of concerns and issues currently with the Colts recently mainly on the defensive but let’s talk about some of the positives developments that seem to be overlooked.

 

It seems like we got our future C to replace Kelly. He has looked good. Alec Pierce is on pace for a career year and looks to finally be flourishing. OL as a whole has been one the best in the league after a slump in 22.  Feel free to add any other positive developments you’ve seen.

Oh Flacco has been a solid back up and in almost 2 games has held up more than his end of his bargain. Looks better than Minshew. I don’t know how he didn’t get signed before the Colts called.

I think Cross has played better than expected.

Jones  looks like a decent player especially when you consider where he was drafted.

Latu is showing promise.

OL looks to have decent depth but a swing tackle may be a problem. I'm sure we'll find out at some point...ughhh

I think the WR's are as good as they have been in a while and I was wrong about AP..He looks great IMO.

JT looks to be back to elite form but can he stay healthy.

I may be a minority here but I still think AR has a chance to be special but he has to stay healthy first.

 

We just need new leadership and a change in philosophy and quit wasting time and it's a lot easier to be positive. With the right leadership and a little luck, maybe we can turn it around quickly and seeing other teams do it quickly gives me hope so that is positive too.

There is nothing I look for throughout the year more relaxing on Sundays with a cold beer to watch my Colts.   If they win it is awesome and if they lose.....  well there's always more beer 

 

But either way I am a die hard Colts fan.   No bandwagon here.   I win or lose with this team 

 

BUT

 

I am officially not going back into the game day thread anymore. I shoulda known but...Yea I know know I know...  I The negativity  is ridiculous 

 

 Because as big of a fan as I am.   Its a game,   it's nothing to live and die by.

 

I know it's not what the OP was asking but my positive development is just being a fan

Same here, Sundays are the best. Good food, good beer, and a lot of football.

Tucker did a nice job when called on yesterday.

Was just getting ready to type that. You know what they say about great minds.

How about Josh Downs?  Great pick, Kid can always get open, and gets YAC.

I am thankful for this thread.  Definitely lots of negativity to go around, but as a true fan, I find positives even in losses.  Sermon got me 17 fantasy points!  That's a positive :P   All kidding aside, the consistency of Pierce is encouraging.  I'm glad he's getting his.  Womack is a keeper thus far!  Downs's number 1 couldn't be more correct.  1st Downs all day long!   We are tied for 4th in total TDs, and only 3 behind the leader (Ravens).  We're tied for 4th in rushing TDs, and tied for 5th in receiving TDs.  We're tied for 4th in yards per attempt, at 8.1.  Please correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't this make us a top 5 offense???  Pretty amazing all things considered.

 

Just found this.  We all know AR needs work, but he leads the league in CAY (Average Completed Air Yards) with 10.2.  Once he settles in (like the game he got hurt), and lowers that TT (Time to Throw), consistently, and learns to protect himself, he's got the potential to be great.

The name of the game is Enjoyment & Entertainment..... and in your case it also includes beer. haha

So you have the exact right attitude.

      Colts at Jags post game

      By LJpalmbeacher2 · Posted

      I haven't been watching NFL much, I just keep an eye on Colts and AR5 and still some betting.  I've been saying for way too long about what I think of the NFL and the part the colts play in it.  Its a Big Turn Off.............But being a colt fan since a kid and watching for so long its really hard to completely tune out. I've done a good job this season of not watching except colts on Red Zone and keep track of some betting.  In a way I envy the fans that are still naive and being Fan Boys of the NFL because it still brings enjoyment to them AND entertainment  that's enjoyable is good. And the same can be said of fans of Wrestling. Lol.

      Coaching is awful and the actual talent we have is awful. Both of these things can be simultaneously true. Sneed is an exception to the rule, not the rule. The other top corners in the league are Surtain, Ramsey, Sauce, A.J. Terell, Jaire Alexander, Humphrey, and Marshon Lattimore. All are 1st round draft picks.

      A positive thread after a loss to worse team in division, that's a first.    I think that's positive development for the fans and this forum also.
