Official "IDGAF what grade Omaha gives, I just want to beat the Tacks again" game day

[Racehorse]

Stop Henry and win. That's my path to victory

[njcoltfan]

I think the titans in a not so close one 28-10

[njcoltfan]

Stop Henry and win. That's my path to victory

Sorry Race, didn"t see your thread. 28-10 Tacks.

[1965southpaw]

For colts to win we need points from defense (pick 6, flipping field, safety, all of the above) AND we can't piss away special teams points. There is no margin for error.

[omahacolt]

Giving the titans props makes this a bad title. C-

This was for the unofficial game day thread

[omahacolt]

Not too bad. B+ title

[HoosierinFL]

It's not Henry, its Tannehil who will determine if they have a shot. If he can make big plays, we are in for a long day.

We have to get pressure so my prediction is Maniac gets a triple double, 40 sacks, 18 points and 11 rebounds.

[omahacolt]

Colts lose 17-13

[Puck]

Henry is better than Mack . Tannehill is better than Brissett

Colts D will have to win this. Don't see it happening . Colts lose 24-19

[Thorgrim]

Every game is a playoff game now. Not sure that the team hasn’t already seen the writing on the wall though. Heart - Colts win on the strength of 3 picks 27-13. Head - Tits win 31-13.

[smitty46953]

Titans win this one 17-14 :cool:

[Indystu2]

Colts lose 31-17

[Big Smooth]

Been on the wall since Luck fucked us. Fuck Andrew Luck. But I've been happy with the fight we have put up in his absence. Injuries caught up with us, it is what is is. Looking forward to see what Ballard can do this off-season.

23-17 tits

[Spike]

Now Rogers is hurt.

[smitty46953]

Nice punch out by Walker

[smitty46953]

TD Doyle Sweet !!! :cool:

[Big Smooth]

Good ball movement. Thank God for 84. Would love to see vrabel yelling like the goofy asshole he is

[Spike]

TD Doyle Sweet !!! :cool:

JB was pretty good on that drive.

[Puck]

any idea why we are in the all whites?

[smitty46953]

Fans supposed wear white too, " White Out" Day ? :cool:

[Spike]

Damn, that was just too easy for the Titans. Gotta say it again, I miss Mariotta.

[smitty46953]

Well shit

[NextManUp]

Tannehil looks good.

[smitty46953]

Niners 7
Ravens 7

Wearing remote out :cool:

[smitty46953]

Nice to Pascal :cool:

[smitty46953]

Dumb ass penalty :eek:

[Big Smooth]

Just keep the camera on Nelson please. Love watching the destruction.

[Brylok]

Oh man. AV misses from 55...

[Spike]

Damn it! What a way to stall a drive.

[Big Smooth]

Guess we felt like giving the tits a momentum swing. Couldn't agree less with that fg try

[Big Smooth]

Well shit haha

[rm1369]

I love Reich, but way to often they throw in situations they just need to pound the ball. 3rd and one in obvious 2 down territory is one of those times.

[smitty46953]

Nice another Turn Over :cool:

[HoosierinFL]

Can’t be too mad about AV missing there, it was good for about 50 yards and bent just at the end. It’s a difficult kick. Blame the penalty.

Also, almost hate to say it but losing Ebron was addition by subtraction, as they are now forced to use Doyle as receiver more than blocker, and he is a far better receiver than Ebron. Though the running game might suffer a bit.

[Maniac]

Defense stepping up

[smitty46953]

need capitalize on the turn overs

[Maniac]

How about some screens? They are selling out to stop the run.

[njcoltfan]

Who’s calling this fuckin stupid plays??

[Spike]

Guess we felt like giving the tits a momentum swing. Couldn't agree less with that fg try

Yep, I hated that fg try too.

[Big Smooth]

Two turnovers and we are tied.

Ugh

Just fucking punt it jfc

[smitty46953]

Damn blocked it

[Brylok]

It's obvious AV can't kick those long fgs anymore. Stop attempting it!

[Maniac]

ugh

[njcoltfan]

Sorry, but AV is the reason this team will not make the playoffs

[Brylok]

One of the announcers on the Ravens/SF game just said that Lamar Jackson is the closest thing to Barry Sanders that we've seen. He must not have ever watched Barry play. Kids these days...

[nate505]

I’m not gong to give AV too much crap for missing 50+ yard FGs. THe offense should be better enough to get the ball in better range.

That said he shouldn’t attempt them again unless it’s critical.

[smitty46953]

One of the announcers on the Ravens/SF game just said that Lamar Jackson is the closest thing to Barry Sanders that we've seen. He must not have ever watched Barry play. Kids these days...

I heard that too, caused a chuckle :cool:

[smitty46953]

Nice run Wilkins :cool:

[smitty46953]

That sack sucked :cool:

[smitty46953]

AV needs this one

[smitty46953]

Sweet hit a short one :cool:

[Brylok]

AV kick is good. His 599th career field goal 😳

[Maniac]

I’m not gong to give AV too much crap for missing 50+ yard FGs. THe offense should be better enough to get the ball in better range.

That said he shouldn’t attempt them again unless it’s critical.

The way our defense is playing, we should be trying to pin them deep instead if we can and get it back with good field position if not a turnover.

[Maniac]

The announcer said earlier that Vinny has been battling an injury. Has he been on the injury report?

[Brylok]

The announcer said earlier that Vinny has been battling an injury. Has he been on the injury report?

Not that I've seen

[Maniac]

Not that I've seen

Well that's interesting that they would admit that he's been hurt to the tv production crew if they haven't been putting him on the report.

[Maniac]

Maniac doing his thing

Then Hines gets chased by a hooker.

[Brylok]

49ers v Ravens might be a Super Bowl preview

[BCN#1]

Go Klotz!!!!

[Big Smooth]

Well done!!!

[Brylok]

Five sacks so far. Love it

[Dewey 5]

Sorry, but AV is the reason this team will not make the playoffs

That & Luck quit.

[Spike]

This FG bullshit continues to hurt the hell out of us. Money is not Money anymore.

[jasperhobbs]

That & Luck quit.

When you retire for whatever reasons, be sure and tell us so we can call you a quitter.

If anyone wants to retire, who are we to question it.

[Spike]

Leonard is a beast.

[Big Smooth]

When you retire for whatever reasons, be sure and tell us so we can call you a quitter.

If anyone wants to retire, who are we to question it.

Hahaha dude he fucked us. It was more about timing than anything. Don't be obtuse.

[Big Smooth]

Fuck Andrew Luck

[smitty46953]

Marques Johnson trying make name for self :cool:

[jasperhobbs]

Hahaha dude he fucked us. It was more about timing than anything. Don't be obtuse.

I will be obtuse if I want to.

[smitty46953]

Nice first down Doyle :cool:

[Dewey 5]

Doyle making catches that Ebron would drop

[Dewey 5]

Very good drive

[Maniac]

Doyle said "Not today Hooker"

[smitty46953]

Up 10 :eek: D needs keep it up

[Big Smooth]

Next man up getting it done. Good to see Hines getting some time. Love beating Porn Stache and Crew, let's keep it going.

[HoosierinFL]

Pointless comment: the announcers today are surprisingly not blathering idiots or biased for or against either team

[Spike]

Nice first down Doyle :cool:

Not only that, he knows where the 1st down marker is. Doyle is having a hell of a game.

[smitty46953]

Pointless comment: the announcers today are surprisingly not blathering idiots or biased for or against either team

Kevin Harlan always does great job :cool:

[Spike]

Fuck Henry, nice tackle by Hooker.

[Spike]

Jackoffs are getting their ass kicked.

[Puck]

well it looks like the raccoon ends our streak of not allowing a 100 yd rusher

[smitty46953]

Moore with our 6th sack :eek:

[Dewey 5]

well it looks like the raccoon ends our streak of not allowing a 100 yd rusher

He’s everything Trent Richardson wasn’t.

[Spike]

Henry is a fucking beast, hate that bastard.

[Luck4Reich]

When you retire for whatever reasons, be sure and tell us so we can call you a quitter.

If anyone wants to retire, who are we to question it.

Him quitting McDonald's doesnt affect anyone though.:cool:

[smitty46953]

Jackoffs are getting their ass kicked.

Minshew in for Foles :cool:

[Luck4Reich]

Moore with our 6th sack :eek:

Just awesome

[Dewey 5]

That was incredibly dumb by Brissett

[Brylok]

Brisket panicked there...

[smitty46953]

Damn it Jacoby just bad decision :cool:

[Puck]

Reich should only give Brissett 2 reads . If they aren't there throw it away or run. He just cannot process that much quickly

[Spike]

Terrible pass by JB.

[smitty46953]

Moore hurt that sucks :cool:

[nate505]

That was maybe the worst pass of the season for JB

[Spike]

Damn, now Kenny Moore is down. Fucking injuries.

[Colts And Orioles]

That was incredibly dumb by Brissett.








Brissett panicked there ......








Damn it Jacoby, just a bad decision. ) :cool:



o


Sometimes the best passes that a quarterback makes are the ones that he doesn't throw.


o

[Puck]

Holding holding holding . Wtf!!!!

[Dewey 5]

I’m beginning to warm up to drafting Jordan Love.

[nate505]

Good job defense.

Now go redeem yourself Jacoby

[smitty46953]

I’m beginning to warm up to drafting Jordan Love.

No thanks, not impressed with him. Much rather have Hurts if available and if Ballard goes with a QB

Love is 60% passer with 17-16 TD-INT ratio

[Maniac]

At least Trannyhill isn't doing a damn thing.

[Big Smooth]

Very happy with our defense. We are neutered on offense and missing so many pieces but hey, I feel really good about where we are as a team once we get healthy and Frank gets another year under his belt. Oh and a new kicker.

[Maniac]

I’m beginning to warm up to drafting Jordan Love.

Why? You want the Colts to continue to suck?

[Puck]

any word on where WIlliams is

[smitty46953]

any word on where WIlliams is

8 carries 14 yards seems Reich decided go with Wilkins? IMO :cool:

[Spike]

any word on where WIlliams is

He is justing standing on the sidelines, not injured. Wonder what the fuck he did to not be in the game.

[kitekrazy]

I’m beginning to warm up to drafting Jordan Love.

Too late for that.

[njcoltfan]

Reichs play calling is really beginning to suck!

[Spike]

Defense shows up again.

[Thorgrim]

Reich should only give Brissett 2 reads . If they aren't there throw it away or run. He just cannot process that much quickly

This or put Kelly in.

[HoosierinFL]

He is justing standing on the sidelines, not injured. Wonder what the fuck he did to not be in the game.

He seemed pretty ineffective early on, maybe they saw something that convinced them Hines and Wilkins would work better. Today we need a little more patience out of the RB, would be a good game for Mack

[smitty46953]

Bengals up 19-6 over Jets :eek:

[Spike]

JB started off hot, not so much lately.

[smitty46953]

JB started off hot, not so much lately.

Looks flustered :eek:

[Maniac]

I know Brisket doesn't have a lot of weapons, but he still sucks as a starting QB.

[WaynesWorld87]

Brissett fucking sucks.

[Thorgrim]

Don’t see us winning without defense or special teams scoring or giving us a short field.

[WaynesWorld87]

Think about this...coming into today, could the average NFL fan name even two of our skill position starters today?

We need a major upgrade at the skill positions in the worst way. I'm ok with Mack as our RB as long as he's healthy, but WR, QB, and TE need a major upgrade.

[Dewey 5]

Challenge that

[Thorgrim]

Critical offseason for Ballard. Imho we are 2 years away from seriously competing IF we get a good draft and score in free agency. That’s a tall order though.

[Puck]

but they whistled it dead . how can it be overturned

[WaynesWorld87]

That's a fumble!

[nate505]

That's a fumble, but the dumb fuck refs blew the whistle before it was recovered.

The incompetent part timers strike again.

[Spike]

That's a fumble recovered by the Colts. Fucking refs need to overturn that incomplete pass BS.

[Spike]

That's a fumble, but the dumb fuck refs blew the whistle before it was recovered.

Don't understand why the refs blow the whistle until the play if over with. Just another fucked up job by the refs.

[Thorgrim]

Don't understand why the refs blow the whistle until the play if over with. Just another fucked up job by the refs.

Guess you didn’t get the memo. With Lucks retirement the Colts are no longer “sexy.”

[nate505]

Got screwed again

[WaynesWorld87]

Critical offseason for Ballard. Imho we are 2 years away from seriously competing IF we get a good draft and score in free agency. That’s a tall order though.
Agree. Right now we have the most nondescript, mediocre at best group of starting skill position players. Even when you throw T.Y. and Mack back into the mix, it's above average at best because our starting QB and WR2 through WR5 are so bad.

[smitty46953]

Figures :eek:

[Big Smooth]

Refs...

[Puck]

what a cluster fuck

[nate505]

Damn these refs are just totally incompetent

[Maniac]

Fuck you refs

[WaynesWorld87]

What. The. Actual. Fuck?

We got bent over and screwed big time with that one.

[Dewey 5]

Refs don’t even know the rules.

[Puck]

Got screwed again

Titans got screwed

[nate505]

The Titans got fucked there, but the Colts got fucked worse so it all evens out I guess.

[WaynesWorld87]

We did catch a break in that they still kept the ball at the 50 yard line.

[Spike]

Guess you didn’t get the memo. With Lucks retirement the Colts are no longer “sexy.”

Oh yeah, I forgot.

[HoosierinFL]

Play reviews continue to be fucked this year

[Maniac]

We did catch a break in that they still kept the ball at the 50 yard line.

Except they shouldn't have had the ball. It should have been Colts ball. Fucking refs.

[WaynesWorld87]

Titans got screwed
Not as bad as we did. Both teams got screwed, but regaining possession near midfield after a takeaway trumps gaining 8 more yards of field position by a wide-margin.

[Puck]

The Titans got fucked there, but the Colts got fucked worse so it all evens out I guess.

I think they ruled it incomplete and the colts just challenged the fumble recovery Had the tacks challenged again they would've gotten the ball at the spot of the fumble .

Only thing I can come up with

[Spike]

We did catch a break in that they still kept the ball at the 50 yard line.

Refs are so fucking incompetent. Vrabel should have challenged that shit, happy he didn't though.

[Thorgrim]

Do something GOOD Briskett.

[NextManUp]

The catch was ruled incomplete, and the challenge was not overturned. Still incomplete.

[WaynesWorld87]

Except they shouldn't have had the ball. It should have been Colts ball. Fucking refs.
Didn't say we shouldn't. Go back and read my previous post. I was complaining about the fact that we got screwed on the call.

At the end of the day, we got screwed the worst. Instead of starting this drive near FG range, we're backed up deep in our own territory.

[BCN#1]

Gotta admit the refs are taking the fun out of this season with their off the wall calls and blatant misses and bullshit calls. Never going to be perfect but this year really seems to stand out for me.
:mad:

[nate505]

The catch was ruled incomplete, and the challenge was not overturned. Still incomplete.

If it was the ref could have actually said that.

[Colts And Orioles]

We did catch a break in that they still kept the ball at the 50 yard line.



o


I wonder if the refs missed the call, or if they felt kind of bad that the Colts were going to get ultra-screwed if they had placed the ball at midfield ........ it was a fumble, and the Colts did recover the ball (albeit being disputed as to whether or not he was still in bounds when he made the recovery), so it would have really sucked big time if the referee's mistake in the first place (not ruling it a catch and a fumble) would have added insult to injury for the Colts.


o

[Spike]

Dirty ass Titans.

[nate505]

Pascal is the value of all value signings

[Spike]

Pascal is the value of all value signings

Pascal is having a hell of a game.

[smitty46953]

Nice to run behind Nelson :cool:

[Spike]

Nelson is a fucking beast.

[nate505]

Except when he holds

[smitty46953]

Nice to run behind Nelson :cool:

Jinxed his ass, holding :eek:

[Spike]

That is a bs holding call on Nelson there. Fuck these refs.

[WaynesWorld87]

And now we're out of FG range.

[Brylok]

Vrable complaining about calls not going against opposing teams. That's rich 🙄

[WaynesWorld87]

Should've been a PI, but ok.

It will be ruled incomplete.

[smitty46953]

And now we're out of FG range.

The way AV been kicking about always out of range :cool:

[nate505]

I actually get what the former ref explained about the fumble recovery and incomplete pass, though that rule is fucking stupid as hell.

[Spike]

Oh shit, here comes AV. Damn it.

[Dewey 5]

Great

[nate505]

Wow... Worst possible scenario there.

[smitty46953]

WTF was that ? :cool:

[Brylok]

Well, that's about the worst possible thing that could happen to AV. I have no words...

[WaynesWorld87]

I still don't understand how that wasn't ruled a fumble recovery by us. Blows my mind.

[nate505]

Total fucking incompetence there

[WaynesWorld87]

Fuck our entire FG unit.

Worst in the NFL.

[nate505]

Can't blame AV there. What clown was blocking that.

[Thorgrim]

Someone please put this season out of its misery

[BCN#1]

Fark me....

[WaynesWorld87]

We're going to end up collapsing so bad, we finish 3rd in this shitty ass division.

[Spike]

Would have been a whole hell of a lot better if Vinny just missed that kick. Although that wasn't Vinny's fault there.

[WaynesWorld87]

How many games this year is our FG unit going to cost us?

This will be #3.

[Spike]

This has been one fucking frustrating season. Started with Luck's retirement and has gone downhill since.

[Dewey 5]

Brissett is awesome

[nate505]

Welp fuck this game

[Brylok]

"Turn out the lights, the party's over..."

[Thorgrim]

Kelly time?

[smitty46953]

Attaboy Jacoby sailed that one, bad decisions :eek:

[nate505]

They better draft a QB with one of those first two picks

[Spike]

Fuck our entire FG unit.

Worst in the NFL.

Terrible special teams coaching there.

[WaynesWorld87]

Just fuck this season.

Fuck you Luck for putting us through this shit.

[Thorgrim]

Brisket should have been on the bench this drive.

[HoosierinFL]

Just fuck this season.

Fuck you Luck for putting us through this shit.

Fuck off

[Colt Classic]

Terrible special teams coaching there.

Why was 74 lined up so deep? He whiffed on both guys.

[Brylok]

Kelly time?

If we lose this, the season is over. I'd like to see if Kelly has anything

[Thorgrim]

Reich is an idiot for sticking with Brissett.

[smitty46953]

That will do it :cool:

[nate505]

That's the game, sigh

[Dewey 5]

Kelly time?

I don’t see why not. Season is now over might as well see what he has

[BCN#1]

such high hope for the season at first... Now its embarrassing at best. Guess I have to wait another year to if we can do shit or not.

[Puck]

Brisket should have been on the bench this drive.

You want Hoyer in?

[HoosierinFL]

Apparently it has not been said enough, Grigson and Pagano broke Luck. You wanna tell someone to fuck off? It’s those 2 guys, not the guy who got beat to shit for years and decided he couldn’t take it anymore.

[Thorgrim]

If we lose this, the season is over. I'd like to see if Kelly has anything

Nothing to lose really. I like the message it sends as well. I know Brisset has no weapons but we have an unknown in Kelly who deserves some snaps if for nothing more than trade bait.

[Thorgrim]

You want Hoyer in?

Hell no! Kelly or a hot dog vendor.

[Puck]

JB throws all passes late Rich Gannon . pay attention more

[WaynesWorld87]

Reich is an idiot for sticking with Brissett.
I mean it's not like our season was over before that interception. You want him to turn to no-experience Kelly in that situation?

Going forward, sure, put Kelly out there. This season is over.

[smitty46953]

Apparently it has not been said enough, Grigson and Pagano broke Luck. You wanna tell someone to fuck off? It’s those 2 guys, not the guy who got beat to shit for years and decided he couldn’t take it anymore.

Think more his timing than anything :cool:

[Puck]

Hell no! Kelly or a hot dog vendor.

Kelly is inactive

[njcoltfan]

Someone please put this season out of its misery

The Titans just did, and by the way, fuck Luck!

[Spike]

JB is not the answer for the Colts. I had some hope, not anymore.

[Brylok]

...Heart - Colts win on the strength of 3 picks 27-13. Head - Tits win 31-13.

Almost got the wizard 🧙

[Thorgrim]

Kelly is inactive

Ahhhh. Nice planning. Hot dog vendor it is then!

[Thorgrim]

Almost got the wizard 🧙

Can’t say I’m surprised with the outcome. Disappointed yes.

[WaynesWorld87]

such high hope for the season at first... Now its embarrassing at best. Guess I have to wait another year to if we can do shit or not.
After Luck announced his retirement, I felt all along this was a 6-10 to 8-8 team. Our offensive line, head coach, and offensive line are just good enough to keep us from being a 2-4 win team like we were two years ago without Luck.

Unfortunately, we started 5-2 and it got everyone's hopes up, but we won a lot of 50/50 games. Then we started losing the 50/50 games and it all started with that god awful home loss to the fucking shitty ass Dolphins.

But, this is who we are. We're going to finish about 8-8. Just good enough to get a mid-1st round pick and now we're stuck searching for an answer at the most important position in the NFL for the foreseeable future.

[njcoltfan]

such high hope for the season at first... Now its embarrassing at best. Guess I have to wait another year to if we can do shit or not.

Going to be more than a year, at least 2-3 years

[smitty46953]

Ravens win 20-17 last second 49 yard Justin Tucker FG :cool:

[Brylok]

Nothing to lose really. I like the message it sends as well. I know Brisset has no weapons but we have an unknown in Kelly who deserves some snaps if for nothing more than trade bait.

Nothing to lose. Might help our draft position, as we're stuck in mediocre team/quarterback hell.

[Puck]

Ravens win 20-17 last second 49 yard Justin Tucker FG :cool:

You didnt want Ravens to win?

[WaynesWorld87]

Think more his timing than anything :cool:
This. Level-headed me really isn't mad at Luck. "In the moment" me is, sure. But I know the blame ultimately falls at the feet of Grigs and Pagano. They ruined a potential great thing.

[MDcolt]

review that last passing TD. it squirted out and hit the ground. he lost possession of the ball. insane they did not even review it (yes, I know they "review every TO/TD").

[Colt Classic]

JB is not the answer for the Colts. I had some hope, not anymore.

Come on, he's signed through next year. You know the Colts are going to roll with him and sell the idea of a full off-season where he's the unquestioned leader and healthy receivers will be just what he needs to turn a bunch of close losses this season into wins in 2020. Never mind the fact that all of the injured players are injury prone and there's a good chance that they'll be dinged again this time next year.

[Thorgrim]

Probably my biggest gripe with the team is the sheer number of injuries. Lots of them around the NFL for sure but it seems like we have more than our share and are slow to recover. I hate to label a player soft in such a violent sport but we need to cut our losses with the most injury prone.

[smitty46953]

You didnt want Ravens to win?

Yes, I did :cool:

[smitty46953]

Bengals going win, that poor bastard can come down off roof of his bar :eek:

[Puck]

Well at least I don't have to root for the Cheats tonight

Need the Texans to win so the Ravens have the #1 seed .

[Dewey 5]

Going to be more than a year, at least 2-3 years

Not if we get the right trigger man.

[Indystu2]

Colts lose 31-17

Called it.

[Chromeburn]

Come on, he's signed through next year. You know the Colts are going to roll with him and sell the idea of a full off-season where he's the unquestioned leader and healthy receivers will be just what he needs to turn a bunch of close losses this season into wins in 2020. Never mind the fact that all of the injured players are injury prone and there's a good chance that they'll be dinged again this time next year.

Irsay is not stupid. He knows this team needs a superstar to sell tickets. They got blindsided this off season. But they will likely try to address the problem this off season. I expect an offensive draft regardless.

[Chromeburn]

JB is not the answer for the Colts. I had some hope, not anymore.

If this game doesn’t convince the remaining doubters then they are blind.

[bertjones]

A painful end to a painful season. Oh wait, there are 4 games left.
Lot of work to be done this offseason, a lot of hard decisions to make.

[Hoopsdoc]

Apparently it has not been said enough, Grigson and Pagano broke Luck. You wanna tell someone to fuck off? It’s those 2 guys, not the guy who got beat to shit for years and decided he couldn’t take it anymore.

I can know this to be true and still say fuck Luck.

They all three screwed us. Pagano and Grigson for the reasons you stated and Luck for stringing everyone along until retiring at the worst possible moment.

[JAFF]

Well at least I don't have to root for the Cheats tonight

Need the Texans to win so the Ravens have the #1 seed .

I hate to root for a division rival, but go Texans, $&@$ the cheatriots

[Hoopsdoc]

This. Level-headed me really isn't mad at Luck. "In the moment" me is, sure. But I know the blame ultimately falls at the feet of Grigs and Pagano. They ruined a potential great thing.

Why on earth is it remotely controversial to be pissed at the timing of Lucks announcement? I’ve never gotten that.

I can wish the guy well and still be pissed at how he fucked over the fans and the franchise, probably for many many years.

Why on earth is it remotely controversial to be pissed at the timing of Lucks announcement? I’ve never gotten that.

I can wish the guy well and still be pissed at how he fucked over the fans and the franchise, probably for many many years.

Exactly his timing was impeccable :cool:

[JAFF]

I can know this to be true and still say fuck Luck.

They all three screwed us. Pagano and Grigson for the reasons you stated and Luck for stringing everyone along until retiring at the worst possible moment.

Luck worked all offseason, rehabbed through the preseason and he wasnt close to starting. He gave it every thing and it wasnt enough.

Hanging around on the PUP for 6 weeks wasnt going to fix him. When did you want to announce?

Opinions will always vary concerning his retirement and is understandable :cool:

I don't have facts to back this up, but I just feel that Luck indicated he wanted to quit at the end of last season and was handled by management. Don't decide yet, give it until summer camp and then decide. If you do that, we'll honor your contract. Like I said, I have no proof it went down like that, but it's possible.

Could very well have been the case? :cool:

Looking at the remaining 4 games, 7 and 9 is very possible, putting us in the middle of the draft 14 to 17. From there, a trade up to get the QB of your dreams is possible.

Doubt Bengals will trade and will take Burrow, who knows I just don't want Love... :eek:

I don't have any inside knowledge - but that's always been my theory. That is that they asked him to hold off on making a "final decision." After Lucks retirement I predicted a 6-10 season. Some koolaid drinkers were picking 10 or 12 wins. Gonna be a long offseason....

any idea why we are in the all whites?

Agreed...who knows maybe Love works out but all I keep hearing is he has everything physical that Mahomes has. Sorry but that doesn't cut it for QB evaluation. Get ready Colts fans because if the great majority of you get what you wish for we could be finding out what many others have been experiencing for the last 20 years. Sucked to get Manning, Lucked into getting Luck and there will be no guarantees coming out this year or 2021 like when Manning/Luck came out.

I do know this...if playoffs are unlikely then Ballard/Reich have to do due diligence and see what Chad Kelly has to offer while getting a chance to play with the ones. He may just be Brissett but I doubt it. Certainly would not perform worse.

I see your point. Brissett is not the answer, neither is Hoyer. That means get a new guy in the draft. Play Kelly and if he plays well, you get a QB when you can in the draft. If he sucks, you trade up and get the best you can.

If the Bengals draft Burrows, could you get Dalton in a trade for a low draft choice?

Trevor Lawrence will be draft eligible in 2021 & he is as much of a guarantee as Luck was. We just won’t be drafting #1 overall in 2021.

Local ads called it a "white out" game, so they encourage fans to wear white and gave out white horseshoe flags.

So Choppedwood was right . we're tanking... thus waiving the white flag

Every game is a playoff game now. Not sure that the team hasn’t already seen the writing on the wall though. Heart - Colts win on the strength of 3 picks 27-13. Head - Tits win 31-13.

Pretty darn close

[Racehorse]

Colts lose 31-17

Nailed it!
