The official "a Marvin Harrison is playing at LOS" again gameday thread

[sherck]

Have at it, Freaks!!

[sherck]

Kyle Murray is out. Our old friend Jacoby "I'm too slow to mentally process at NFL speed" Brisett will helm the Cardinals.

[albany ed]

Let's hope the Colts shed their "turn sub QBs into all pro for a game" history.

[HoosierinFL]

I wonder how Brissett is doing as a qb these days, whether he’s progressed. Good guy, not a great qb for us.

Anyway how bout dem Hoosiers?

[Colts And Orioles]

I wonder how Brissett is doing as a QB these days, whether or not he’s progressed. He's a good guy, je was not a great QB for us.

Anyway, how 'bout dem Hoosiers ???

Welcome back Pierce

Keep this train rolling

Win for Jim

[IndyNorm]

As long as we don't play down to the competition and avoid major mistakes we should win this one handily.

Colts said he got injured this morning - "eye injury."

Got poked in the eye?

[ChaosTheory]

Colts said he got injured this morning - "eye injury."

Got poked in the eye?

Pre game band work. I guess that means he was using a band to warm up and popped himself in the face.

Pre game band work. I guess that means he was using a band to warm up and popped himself in the face.

Good god

Colts said he got injured this morning - "eye injury."

Good grief!:rolleyes:

[Hoopsdoc]

AD Mitchell also inactive. Good, Dulin is better.

I’m guessing Mitchell isn’t responding the way they’d like to his benching.

[Hoopsdoc]

Also, A+ on the title. That’s a great title. Omaha is whack.

I think it is an A.

Your Grade-fu is no good.

[TheMugwump]

Colts said he got injured this morning - "eye injury."

Got poked in the eye?

He was trying to watch tape and did it wrong?

[sherck]

Oh.....my.....God!!!!

That Touchdown Medical Clinic "commercial" was fricking fantastic!!!

[Brylok]

Pre game band work. I guess that means he was using a band to warm up and popped himself in the face.

He is made of glass. I'd rather see Riley Leonard anyway if we have a blowout lead.
At least there's no threat of AD sabotage today.

[Lov2fish]

Ward is out too! Ran into the tight end and is under concussion protocol. Ugh!

[AlwaysSunnyinIndy]

What is going on today with pregame injuries?

Now CB Charvarius Ward is OUT today - he suffered a concussion during pregame warm-ups.

[Brylok]

Ward has had 2 concussions in less than a month. Not good.

[CletusPyle]

Just saw the Ward injury, that almost looked real.....:rolleyes:

[Brylok]

Jonathan Edwards getting 1st NFL start in place of Ward. Good luck, kid. Yikes

The actor they used looked a lot like Mitchell. 🤣

This is a must-win game for the Colts ......a home game against a below-average team.

I don't care that the Cardinals are an NFC team, it's still a must-win for the Colts ...... they need to stack the wins while the schedule is weak, and make life easier for themselves in crunch time later in the season.

o

[CletusPyle]

Nice play calling Shane!

[CletusPyle]

The Warren Drive!

[Racehorse]

Thank you, Chicago, for that TD

[Brylok]

So much more efficient with Jones and Warren out there. Opens Downs up, too. Love it.

[TheMugwump]

Damn this offense is fun to watch. The most fun to watch since around 2010.

[sherck]

That drive was a thing of beauty.

[CletusPyle]

Somebody else already mentioned it, but we have a habit of making backup QBs look like pro-bowlers!

[IndyNorm]

Ward is out too! Ran into the tight end and is under concussion protocol. Ugh!

Fuck. Not good. We were probably going to make Brissett look like a pro bowler today. Now he'll probably look like a hall of famer :cool:

[Oldcolt]

Somebody else already mentioned it, but we have a habit of making backup QBs look like pro-bowlers!

I'm betting not this year

[Brylok]

Hopefully not famous last words, but I'm not too worried about Brisket.

[CletusPyle]

Fuck. Not good. We were probably going to make Brissett look like a pro bowler today. Now he'll probably look like a hall of famer :cool:

They actually showed it happen in the pre-game....I thought it looked fake myself, but I am a total cynic these days!

[IndyNorm]

They actually showed it happen in the pre-game....I thought it looked fake myself, but I am a total cynic these days!

Yeah, saw it in slow motion. Looked ho hum at most, but can't imagine them faking this (and I'm a cynic too).

[Brylok]

Did the dude pass away out there? Let's get this game going. Jeez

[sherck]

Did the dude pass away out there? Let's get this game going. Jeez
If the injury was to his spine of head, they do not take chances...

[Brylok]

There's been more injury/commercial time than game time.

[Racehorse]

That ref may have blocked the camera enough to make us lose that challenge.

[CletusPyle]

I don't think he caught it, but the view that would confirm it the ref was in the way!:D

[NextManUp]

No catch.

[Brylok]

Brisket might be injured. Looked slow getting up.

Come on, Pittman. Block better than that!

Pro-Bowler Jacoby Brissett!

Injure their kicker. It's only a $5000 fine.

[Dewey 5]

Secondary blows.

[YDFL Commish]

The defense always seems to take drive or two to get it going. I'm confident they will.

[Racehorse]

Secondary blows.Losing Ward an hour before kickoff will make that happen

[IndyNorm]

FFS. 3rd and 17 no problem for them. Why the fuck is our D always such a shit show on 3rd and Long? :mad::mad::mad:

[Racehorse]

Jacoby is good for aPick 6, right?

[IndyNorm]

Jacoby is good for aPick 6, right?

Not against our D. Especially w/ Ward out :cool:

[sherck]

I am not so sure that Cross is not our defensive MVP so far for the season.

[CletusPyle]

So is Kenny Moore even close to coming back?

[YDFL Commish]

Nick Cross is playing like certain #21 that I remember.

[Racehorse]

I am not so sure that Cross is not our defensive MVP so far for the season.

I remember a lot of anguish about him his rookie year. Glad we stuck with him.

[sherck]

Great defensive series there!

[CletusPyle]

Should have had great field position if not for #15.....:D

Dammit, Jones

This is good. We look a little befuddled out there. Line isn't clicking like it normally does. It will be interesting to watch DJ and line in these circumstances.

At least Jerry Jones will never be our owner.

I guess they decided to stop getting cute and just play smashmouth football.

Hell yes that was a nice response

Ameer Abdullah played for my beloved l Nebraska Cornhuskers. l :cool:

Looks a lot better when they can mix in some runs. The pass game should be a little more open next drive.

This Abdullah kid has some scoot to him.

lol isn't he just about the oldest guy on the roster?

[Colts And Orioles]

Hell yes, that was a nice response.

That was an 87-yard drive.

Still a "kid" for the geezers around here.

lol isn't he just about the oldest guy on the roster?

Is he? ([researching, researching, researching]) I guess he is 32.

But I'm 60, so they're all kids to me.

I am currently wearing a Harbaugh jersey that is older than 32 years old! :)

Junior concussed?

[sherck]

MHJ just banged his head on the back that seems to often give a concussion.

[Colts And Orioles]

o


That Seattle Seahawks receiver started celebrating with the ball extended out before he got into the end-zone.

I've said it before ...... football players in general are not the smartest bunch of people. It's not just Jonathan Taylor, and it's not just Adonai Mitchell ....... their collective IQ isn't high, and they never learn.

o

[sherck]

With MHJ out, if I were Arizona, I would load up the O-Line, bring in another TE and ram it down our throat until we stop it.

I don't know if we can.

[Brylok]

The hell was Blackmon doing?

[sherck]

Arizona is 6 of 8 for 3rd down conversions.

We have GOT to clean that up for the 2nd half.

[Brylok]

Paye serving up a Brisket plate.

[sherck]

Nom, nom, nom.......

Fortunately, we may have started now ...... they're 6-for-9 now, after that QB sack.

Nah. AD Mitchell is a bust.

True, but Latu was the first pick. We should have traded up and gotten Harrison Jr. 😁

[Brylok]

Agree

[IndyNorm]

Is Latu a bust? He’s had a couple lucky picks, otherwise he hasn’t done much of anything all year.

Too early to say he is yet, but if he doesn't start getting to the QB any more than he has been then he definitely will be a bust. Especially since he was not only a 1st rounder, but the 1st defensive player taken in the draft.

True, but Latu was the first pick. We should have traded up and gotten Harrison Jr. 😁

I remember reading that we did try to trade up. Although it was likely to draft Bowers. I think we ended up ok at TE :)

[sherck]

MHJ out for the game. Helps us a bit....

[sherck]

Too much zone coverage. I know with the waterboy playing CB for us this game that we have to do more zone, but goodness.....the underneath guy is open by a TON!

[Brylok]

Jacoby is a feasting on us...

[Butter]

The D stayed in the locker room

[CletusPyle]

Very disappointing that we are struggling so much with this team....:rolleyes:

[Butter]

MHJ out for the game. Helps us a bit....

Doesn't matter with the shit play of the secondary and the shit playcalling, to soft.

Without looking up his statistics, I would say that Jonathan Taylor is excellent at yards-after-contact ...... judging with my own lying eyes.

o

[Brylok]

Good job, Badgley

[Racehorse]

Badgley got some good Luck wearing #12

[Colts And Orioles]

o


That FG was a little scary ...... he just snuck it inside of the uprights.

o

[NextManUp]

Too early to say he is yet, but if he doesn't start getting to the QB any more than he has been then he definitely will be a bust. Especially since he was not only a 1st rounder, but the 1st defensive player taken in the draft.



I remember reading that we did try to trade up. Although it was likely to draft Bowers. I think we ended up ok at TE :)

I agree it’s a little early to label him a bust. I was just trying to start the conversation. I was focusing on him the first half. He was a complete non factor. Seems slow, easy to block. Can’t get to the QB or shed his blocker during the run. Hope I’m wrong, but his stats for the season are backing this up.

[Racehorse]

Time to force another Turnover

[Brylok]

There's Zaire's bonehead play of the day.

[CletusPyle]

Totally by accident, but stupid none the less!

[Colts And Orioles]

o


Maybe Michael Badgley can be this season's Matt Stover, and be a solid-but-not-spectacular kicker on a trip to a Super Bowl appearance ...... that's what happened in 2009 when Stover had to pinch-hit for the injured Adam Vinatieri.

[Racehorse]

Defense was tightening up until 44 got that penalty

[TheMugwump]

Three backups in the secondary just ain't doing it. Time to dial up some all-out blitzes.

[CletusPyle]

This game is depressing....we don't look like the same team.

Ward's injury is looking more suspicious all the time!

[Racehorse]

Lots of injuries in Indianapolis today

[IndyNorm]

Well this is over. What a shit show performance by our D. I know we have some injuries (especially in the secondary), but they have plenty on O too.

[Colts And Orioles]

[Colts And Orioles]

Well, this is over ......

Over ??? As in the Colts don't have a prayer to come back and win this game ???

[Brylok]

Where's Pierce? Been invisible today. And where did Downs go?

[IndyNorm]

o

Over ??? As in the Colts don't have a prayer to come back and win this game ???

Yep, pretty much. Maybe we can pull out a win if AZ starts shooting themselves in the foot. Our D certainly isn't going to do anything to stop their O.

[Racehorse]

Where's Pierce? Been invisible today. And where did Downs go?

Wait a second

[Brylok]

There's Pierce

[Brylok]

And there's Downs!

[CletusPyle]

Why isn't that hit on Downs a penalty?

[Oldcolt]

Where's Pierce? Been invisible today. And where did Downs go?

you called it

[Racehorse]

Where's Pierce? And where did Downs go?

You sound like the Cardinals DBs on that last drive

[Thorgrim]

Now we can slowly crawl away with a win.

[sherck]

Our defense got them off the field last series....until Franklin did his bonehead play.

I have faith.....

[Colts And Orioles]

Why isn't that hit on Downs a penalty ???





o


Because it was a clean, hard, legal hit.

With all of the rules changes that are stacking the deck against defensive players, fans are conditioning themselves into thinking any time that a receiver goes down from contact that it's a penalty.

o

[Thorgrim]

As do I. May not be as convincing a win as it should be but I’m confident we pull it out. Blocked fg? Horrible shank?

[TheMugwump]

Zero pass rush the past few drives. How about a blitz or two, Lou?

[Colts And Orioles]

I disagree, he had scored and the hit was late !!!





o


He hit him immediately after he touched the ball, which is legal.

If that were a Colts defender making the same exact play, I doubt that you would be up in arms as to why he wasn't called for a penalty. There was no complaint on the Colts' sidelines about that hit.

o

[TheMugwump]

"That's close, right there".

Close? He literally tackled him.

[nate505]

I hate when they pick up a flag and don't explain why

It was close, but on the slo-mo replay, you can see that Downs got three feet down before the hit. That's not immediate.

[nate505]

For fucks sake, that's a flag every play

[NextManUp]

I still don’t understand why Steichen declines so many penalties.

[sherck]

Our defense is so soft right now.....I know we have injuries but good golly.

[nate505]

Unreal, they give up so many chunk plays.

[CletusPyle]

We have to score TDs, I don't want to have to count on Badgley to tie or win the game!

[Racehorse]

I still don’t understand why Steichen declines so many penalties.

The play was a net loss of down. They would have two downs to get ten yards, or three to get 15. That is three times for our defense to have to stop them. Odds are not good without Moore and Ward out there.

[Lov2fish]

They better get some defensive help before the trade deadline. This constantly watching a mediocre QB feast is nauseating week in and week out. All of these 3rd and long getting converted is inexcusable.

[Thorgrim]

Jacoby Brisset’s abuse of this defense is befuddling.

[Lov2fish]

Our defense is so soft right now.....I know we have injuries but good golly.

The backups are paid professionals. No excuse

Happy for Jacoby, but wish i were against someone else.

o


In real-time, it was immediate. They don't play in slow-motion.

If you're advocating for a penalty that would help the Colts in the short run, then you are also advocating for the game to be even more watered-down than it already is in the long run. The Colts didn't complain, and the announcers didn't suggest that it was a penalty ...... just a Colts fan looking for a break for their team.

o

[kitekrazy]

this is the first Colts game I've gotten to watch in years. I live where the Cardinals play so it's on local TV. Listening about the Colts on PHX sports talk I thought this would be a more dominant game.

Sadly, holding the Cardinals to a field goal just now is a big win for the Colts' defense, because of the fact that they have played so badly today.

Yeah, but fortunately their coach is an idiot who went for two when an XP would have put them only down 7.

Fuck yes! JT earned that TD, he was great all that drive.

[Butter]

Taylor will not be denied, man is playing possessed this season

4:32 is a lot of time. The defense HAS to hold out.

Imagine if they had an Andrew Luck as well.

I tend to think the franchise QB is becoming less and less in the NFL and you need stud RBs

[nate505]

4:32 is a lot of time. The defense HAS to hold out.

Can't say I'm feeling good, but the 4 point lead feels a hell of a lot better than a 3 point one, or a tie.

Faguars are coming back. 20-12 Seacawks

Jags had to punt. A score by SEA ends the game

Six 2nd half possessions (3 for each team).

Four TDs and 2 FTs.

[sherck]

This is like pop warner playing defense.

[Butter]

Franklin trying to get a penalty, dumbass

[CletusPyle]

I saw two so called "experts" over the weekend pick the Cardinals to win this game because they said they couldn't see the Colts as a 5-1 team!

[Brylok]

These fucking commercials are prolonging the agony.

[NextManUp]

Shit.

Well, there's never been a doubt that Jacoby is a freaking warrior.

At this point, might as well let them score so we can get the ball back. Our tackling is terrible today.

[nate505]

Welp, time to see if they can at least keep them out of the endzone

[Brylok]

Edwards shouldn't even be out there...

[Brylok]

Need a turnover

[nate505]

Why does Franklin keep playing with fire on those tackles.

[Racehorse]

Need a turnover
on downs

[CletusPyle]

We are very lucky!

[Brylok]

Whew! Good lord!

[nate505]

Haha, fuck you McBride

[TheMugwump]

Whew!

Now explain that second timeout with 51 seconds left. Now they need a 1st down to seal the game.

We are very lucky!
It's the horseshoes everywhere

Damn, that Cardinals team is tougher than advertised. If they can get back most of their injured players, they could still make a run in a tough division.

I wish them nothing but good luck.

I didn’t see it, did Lammons hold or PI on that 4th down play?


He grabbed the jersey. Lucky it wasn’t called.

He had a hold of the receiver's jersey.

But the ball was thrown so high, they might have decided it was uncatchable.

[Colts And Orioles]

Well, this is over ......








o


Over ??? As in the Colts don't have a prayer to come back and win this game ???

o






Yep, pretty much ...... maybe we can pull out a win if AZ starts shooting themselves in the foot. Our D certainly isn't going to do anything to stop their O.





o


Well, it's a good thing that the Colts didn't throw in the towel.

The Colts have to win games when they play badly ...... that's what excellent teams do, and I think that the Colts may be an excellent team.

And today was one those games ....... the Colts won a game in spite of the fact that they played badly, which was not uncommon in the Peyton Manning era.

Jags lost so we are in first all by ourselves!:cool:

[ChoppedWood]

The team is a far more confident group than we have had in, shit, I don't know if we ever had a team this confident during Luck's era even. This team believes they can score every possession, and they aren't too far from that.

The lack of pass rush is going to end up being the Achilles heel for this team though, the combination of getting zero up front with a completely make shift defensive backfield playing guys off the street is going to do us in. I would not be surprised to see Herbert go for 400+ next week.

I saw us as a "big" trade candidate in an article last night, basically saying we are one of the teams that might be willing to go all-in this year due to being close. It seemed the article was implying we could be targeting Crosby. I would be fine with it- we HAVE to get some edge pressure going to keep making a serious push.

[albany ed]

We nearly fell victim (ONCE AGAIN) to the let's turn a substitute QB into a pro bowler. Bressette had enough time to smoke a big Cuban cigar back there. When a team sees their chances of making the playoffs dwindle away, they begin to look at some of their players that are at the end of their contract and start fielding offers for a trade. The Bengals, Browns and Raiders each have a stud pass rusher that could make the Colts awesome if they could work out a trade. Get to work Ballard, this team has no pass rush and it's killing them.

[apballin]

Taylor looks fucking amazing late in games

It just makes sense to get Trey Hendrickson

Man I would be all for going after Garrett (would take a haul), Hendrickson or Crosby. Not sure what we have to give in return but man Ballard make something happen. We could be a serious SB contender with a terrorizer off the edge, this offense is THAT efficient.

[omahacolt]

I think it is an A.

Your Grade-fu is no good.

the grade is what it is

[AlwaysSunnyinIndy]

Pre game band work. I guess that means he was using a band to warm up and popped himself in the face.


Yikes. Orbital fracture.

https://x.com/RapSheet/status/1977470043370725664

It is an orbital fracture for Anthony Richardson, coach Shane Steichen told reporters.

He spent the game at the hospital.

[Butter]

Holy shit, dude truly is made of glass.

[Racehorse]

Especially the cornerbacks

That quoted the wrong post.

[YDFL Commish]

Yikes. Orbital fracture.

Holy fuck! No in season AR trade now. Instead we may have to look into trading for a true #2 QB.

AR just wasn't made to play football.

Unless he has to see the field.

Yeah, I prefer not see Riley Leonard this year.

Suppose I deserve this. I had just seen it play out where our D turns a journeyman backup QB into a HOFer for a day way too many times to be anything but 100% pessimistic on how the game would turn out. This has to be the first time where we actually ended up winning the game. At least in recent memory.

Anyway, glad we won, but what a shit performance by our D.

[kitekrazy]

late after the Colts took the lead after watching the Cards get 4 first downs in a row I turned it off and waited for the outcome.

[BCN#1]

Holy fuck! No in season AR trade now. Instead we may have to look into trading for a true #2 QB.

Orbital Fracture in warm ups??? Wrap his dumb arse up in bubble wrap first.... Jeebus! :eek:

[YDFL Commish]

Next he'll get injured brushing his teeth.

[Colts And Orioles]

Holy fuck !!! There will be in-season Anthony Richardson trade now ...... instead, we may have to look into trading for a true #2 QB.

Riley Leonard is just fine.

The Best Veteran QB Option the Colts Should Consider Signing After Anthony Richardson’s Latest Injury May Surprise You

(By Destin Adams)

https://atozsports.com/nfl/indianapolis-colts-news/colts-veteran-qb-should-sign-former-titans-starter-ryan-tannehill-anthony-richardson-injury/




An unfortunate and bizarre injury during pre-game warm-ups landed Indianapolis Colts backup QB Anthony Richardson on the IR. He is now set to be sidelined for at least four weeks. This means that rookie Riley Leonard is now Daniel Jones’ backup, but the team seems to be leaning towards signing a veteran to slide into that role instead.

I took a look at available options and saw the names in which others have already thrown around as possible signings, such as Taylor Heineke, Desmond Ridder, Brett Rypien, and several others. Personally, I don’t think that any of the names being mentioned are who the Colts should sign. I think that the best option to be Jones’ backup is someone they know well from AFC South battles in the past ...... Ryan Tannehill.


The Colts Should Sign Ryan Tannehill


Tannehill began his career with the Miami Dolphins after he was drafted in the 1st round of the 2012 NFL Draft. The same draft in which the Colts held the number one overall pick, and after scouting all of the top QBs, selected Andrew Luck. Tannehill spent the first 6 years of his career in Miami before being traded to the AFC South to the Tennessee Titans ahead of the 2019 season. He was acquired to be the back-up, but went on to contribute much more to the franchise.

He started 63 of the 67 games he appeared in with the Titans. He threw for 14,447 yards, 93 TD's, and 40 INT's. His record as a starter with the Titans was an impressive 39-24. He led the team to the playoffs three times and won two playoff games in 2019, helping them advance to the AFC Championship game. During his time there he excelled in the play-action game, and was known for taking what the defense gave him at a high level.

He would be a solid back-up, and a great fit in Shane Steichen’s scheme. He was out of the league in 2024, so the team would likely need to work him out before making a final decision. It was reported that multiple teams considered signing him this off-season, which suggests that he’s probably still hoping for one more shot in the NFL. It would also be an added bonus that Titans fans would hate to see their former QB join the Colts. And the two teams will play their second match-up of the season in Week 8, and who knows, maybe Tannehill could get in the game if the Colts were able to blow their divisional rivals out like they did in Week 3.

I doubt we acquire a QB, but if we did, this would not be as bad as trading for one.
