Colts Vs. Rams Preseason Game Day Thread

[jbaron04]

ballard has game speed and the 3 -4 looks to get a lot of pressure

[ruksak]

Shhhhh....listen closely. You can almost hear the bandwagon getting full again.

[ruksak]

They should have given Luck the final drive... A perfect chance at a learning experience wasted.

Being inside the 5 killed that opportunity.

[Poster X]

So far I like what I'm seeing from this football team.

[FireJimCaldwell]

Being inside the 5 killed that opportunity.

Where the ball was shouldn't matter. Even if it were on the one... It's something he will be faced with at some point.

[Malakai432]

hears whispers in the wind, "if you build it, they will come."

[Malakai432]

Does anyone know if Chapman will get some play time today? I haven't been paying attention to if he's been in or not.

[BrentMc11]

darn I missed that play, what happened?

He was eligible.....and he looked like Mary Poppins trying to catch it....he started out...with the Ravens initially as a TE.....Bob Lamey mentioned it lasted all of two days... .it was the play before the Carter TD.

[Jay Roland]

good first half now the people that are fighting for jobs on this team need to step up in the second half

[cjwhiskers]

Donald Browns looked quite fast, I'm impressed.

He is the one person I haven't heard much about throughout the off season... So I hope he gets some playing time.

His previous drive was 'his' 2 minute drill FJC....I agree it would have been nice to see him try to go 98.....but he was already done....helmet off....studying pictures.....and massaging his neckbeard....handsome devil.....that chin strap must itch.....

[shakedownstreet]

the phone is ringing at the colts ticket office

[Gavin]

Chapman is out as far as I know on the PUP=Physically unable to perform list

[Poster X]

Shhhhh....listen closely. You can almost hear the bandwagon getting full again.

Noooooo. I was just starting to enjoy all the leg room around here.

[BrentMc11]

I do not know if you guys noticed...the last drive by Stanton had A.Q.Shipley at center....Link at right tackle I believe....George Foster at left Tackle....and I saw Tepper out there but could not see where he was....Was Hicks out there...could not see everyone...Shipley was blowing guys off of the ball and blasting guys down field....

[bayone]

They just blacked it out on NFL channel. Had to switch to channel 23 here. No hd . . . rats!

Blackout was 2 seconds on NFL network, hope u got back to it

Yeah they went no-huddle for part of that drive, but this was a perfect opportunity. You tell him the game is tied, and you need a FG.

To me pinned in deep like that is a situation he will face every other week if not every week and it was a perfect opportunity. The fact that it was a true two-minute drill to me makes it even a better learning situation.

That to me is what preseason is about. It's why Belichick in a game a few years ago sent a back up qb in cold and took Brady out like he was hurt.. Just working on situations.

[manning04]

our second group of linemen did a good job getting Ballard holes to have a few good runs

[LucasOilStadium]

What an intro by Luck, aand the O-line protecting him, so the Colts leading 21-3! Wonder if Andrew will play a few series in the second half, or Drew Stanton and Chandler Harnish will enter the field and lead the offense the rest of the game.

[Gavin]

Ok I hope to see some Anunoby in this second half and Hicks

[Fatboyslim11]

i could not be any happier with the start of the preseason. This is a good foundation to build upon for the team.

[Gavin]

Nope here in Anderson on the NFL Network I have the Browns vs Lions again.....Already DVR'd it

[Coltssouth]

Blackout was 2 seconds on NFL network, hope u got back to it

Still blacked out here. Must be an Indiana thing. Oh well . . . at least I can still watch it on a local channel.

[Gavin]

Ok where the heck is Hicks?!

[jbaron04]

Does anyone know if Chapman will get some play time today? I haven't been paying attention to if he's been in or not.

He hasn't practice yet since his surgery

[Nobody]

Carter and Ballard look great.

[Malakai432]

Hilton has a nice couple catches, guy has good hands...

[BrentMc11]

Andre Smith was supposed to be a blocker....he whiffed on that sack....George Foster is fighting his tail off.

Tepper threw Ballard forward like a rag-doll.

Quan dropped a 1st down....has looked good!

[Nobody]

Cosby!

[Gavin]

I will be making my final roster list after the game

[BrentMc11]

Buddy Jackson, Matt Overton and Matt Merletti down on the punt....have to make a play!

[LucasOilStadium]

Wonder why they're wearing white at home?

So the Colts uniforms can reflect back the summer heat at this time of year, and LOS's roof is open. Many NFL teams wear white uniforms at home in August and September so the players do not feel as hot while they play on the field.

[Malakai432]

lol they sure aren't skimping on Jerry Hugh's play time...

[Coltssouth]

Thanks!

Hmmm.....never thought of it that way. Nice little tidbit.

[21isSuperman]

Big hit!

[bayone]

That makes sense, as its local, NFL channel will rebroadcast by u maybe if u want to see again but will be plenty of highlights shown

Peytons first pass was a crossing route hitting Harrison who also took it in eerily similar

all in all Quite impressive play and the young receivers guys played well , Cosv by, TY hiton and Like luck making a quick call and rush a play as announcers on NFL network said he may have been bobbling it and went out of bounds

Collie looks healthy , thats great , Young receivers and RB ballard all looking good and all can grow together with Luck so will have chemistry for long time and collie still young

Good awareness in the pocket and good command & accuracy <Excellent play

[BrentMc11]

McKinney demanding the double team......good sign.....D J Johnson should have made an int.....then did not wrap up....on the tackle....Mario Harvey with a nice play to thwart the drive.

Jerry Hughes once again with 2 QB pressures.

[21isSuperman]

Our O-line got manhandled there
