dpete Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 This may be an exercise in futility since we have so many options it seems like, but how do you expect our offense to look for 2012? The addition of the two TEs raises so many questions. Will we even run 3-wide sets this year? Who lines up outside in the 2 TE sets? Will Allen play some H-back? Fun things to speculate about!

The Peytonator Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 4 Wide with lots of speed - Wayne, Avery, Hilton, BrazilConvential Pro-Style - Wayne, Collie, Fleener, Allen3 Wide - Wayne, Collie, Avery/Hilton/Brazil, FleenerBig Man Running Formation - Wayne out wide, Eldridge and Fleener on the LOS, Mahaffey as lead blockerLots of possibilities.

tfunky14 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I would say a 24 pt average a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruksak Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I could see Allen being used as a 3rd & short blocker/decoy receiver. H-back is another option which could also be dynamic, seeing him catching passes in the flat.I expect a myriad of formations, however, a primary 2 TE, singleback set.4th & long could see 4 WR's and Fleener lined up slot/inside/outside, empty backfield.Bubble screens (ala Garcon) with our new waterbug, Hilton, would be doubly effective with stout TE's blocking downfield.

dpete Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 Think Hilton will get many looks? I'm expecting him to primarily be our return guy as long as Avery is healthy (aka 1-2 games ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpete Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 Also, an interesting thought for our 2 TE sets would be moving Fleener to flanker and Collie to the slot. Match-up nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Americolt Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I do believe we could have a VERY potent offense this year. Not much teams draft a 4.45 speed TE and then 2 speedster WRs after. Were gonna see some deep thows/reverses/screens taken to the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJR0605 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I'm lookin forward to become more of a powerhouse type team. Yeah we have small and quick receivers, but the addition of two tight ends will work wonders for the Colts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarlKuffs Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 It's great that these guys have speed, but I hope that they also have the myriad of other things it takes to be good NFL WR and TE's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got to believe the coaches know what they're doing!with pagano's defense the secondary coverage was all ed reed. their cb's were average and that was ok because they knew they could get to the qb before their cb's get burned if the throw was made reed was there to contest it. we will probably do the same thing with bethea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisfarley Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 It all starts with the protection. If they can give Luck some time, watch out, if they can't then it's going to be a very long season.I think it's a given that he will not have a bunch of time back there but he has a quick release, that will help. He will get sacked a ton to be sure but isnt that what we expected anyway? Yes, it is what we expected. I'm all for getting some good o-line help next years draft. Too bad we couldn't have been the Steelers, they got two GREAT O-linemen in this year's draft. Unbelievable linemen in this year's draft for the Steel City. But that's ok, we have Luck and if that's all we got this year in the draft I'd be happy, but look what we got...... two of the best tight ends to come out in the draft for the same team in the history of the draft, a burner in Hilton (steal of the draft), and even got a underated running back from Miss. State !!!! Oh and not to mention that we picked up a nose tackle and another receiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peytonparker Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I'm confused as to why everyone thinks Allen is such a good blocker? Read up on him and watch his game tape he is no better a blocker than Fleener IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides that, the 3rd QB don't count against your roster on gameday now.Right, but he does count against your total roster. Since that third guy will only play pending disaster I'm thinking they'll puy Harnish on the PS and let him run scout. You're counting Peyton as one of the 3 we had on the roster at one time? That was a special case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coltsfanatic24 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 will start out with wayne-- castonzo--reitz--satele--justice--ijilana--allen--fleener>(will move to slot on 3rd) collie luck brownthis formation is similar to what bruce arians did with steerlers. it allows us to run the ball more effectively because of the two huge te's we have. also we can pass out of it because defenses will have their base formations in which will allow both fleener and allen to have a significant advantage.
