Notes from Colts camp

[Oldcolt]

Best news I caught yesterday was Banagu and Turay looked good, getting pressures etc. Doesn’t mean much this early but if one of them could turn it on it would be huge for us

yeah i am always skeptical of standouts in camp from the media. so many times these dudes don't make it out of preseason.

Turay when healthy has shown he has ability, so he needs to stay healthy. Banogu needs to produce on game day.

Sounds good, but you dont get into a fight with a teamate.

Sometimes you do. If said teammate isn't following protocols on contact, and is trying to make a hit to make a name for himself, then you stand up to him and let him know what is at stake. There is a time for good hits, and week 1 of training camp is not it.

I watch and heard Tony Dungy lecture his entire team after a practice fight. Right there on the field at Rose Hulman he told his team, you fight a teammate, you run laps until the end of practice. Fights are 15 yard penalty and an expulsion. Control your emotions. Dont get angry, get better.

Thats when I knew he was a great teacher

Tony Dungy had a team full of veterans and his teams were expected to win the division every year. This team is in a different position a roster filled with young guys that haven’t won shit. If Pittman was fighting Blackmon or Willis I understand the speech, but a guy that probably won’t make the team takes a shot at him fuck that plant that mfer where he stands

Every team is different and I love Dungy but that’s fight I wanna see! Young, hungry aggressive savages. Expect to win, stand up for yourself when necessary! Set the tone for the season Pittman!!! Let’s fuckin go

Practice like you play, play like you practice. Someone beats you on a play, you beat him the rest of the game

If the defender threw in a cheap shot (in the first week of camp!), then Pittman was being a good teacher, because that guy will end up with a 15 yard penalty for that in a real game.
