Colts pregame - nothing witty after the last couple weeks

[Langlier]

Its been ugly. Colts were flying high but came back to earth a bit vs the rams.

Getting pressure on Danny dimes is key. Stopping Taylor is next highest priority

Colts D has been revitalized by Buckner playing like hes 5 years younger.

They are far from the sad sacks they were predicted to be early on. That said this is still a danny dimes led team. Make him make mistakes and its a winnable game. Assuming our own O doesnt commit our own mistakes

we'd have been better off pursuing Danny. Another disappointing week coming up

Hindsight is 20/20.This place would have gone ballistic if we signed him. I don't think anyone would have predicted Danny having the type of resurgence he has had. I am guessing he falls back down to earth at some point

Dimes is a whole different player given the protection of QNelson and Co. along with the NFL leading rusher. Here he would have been the same player he was with the Gi-Aints.

I don’t think the Colts are as good as their record, but Geno will probably throw 5 picks and we’ll end up losing. I wonder how long it takes for Pete to feel the heat of making a QB switch?

We’re fucked.

 

[007]

We suck. The end.

 

[TheNextStep]

Pretty sure we’re going to fuck them up.

Pete says Forsythe will be the first choice to fill in for Miller, but Charles Grant is ready to contribute if needed. Being a healthy scratch every week would seem to contradict that, but whatever.

Stone as a swing tackle is a better choice as he has starting nfl experience. Grant likely a better pro but raw and just playing left side so far. Full preseason and 4 weeks of regular season practice - he might be ready to get his feet wet. Kwity Paye is a pro but far from one of the leagues most feared edge players. So not the worst time to get the rook some snaps

Colts have a pretty good squad. I think we get run on again like Washington. He's one of the best when healthy.

Definitely was an upgrade to Zamir especially on KR.

I think Laube is our best KR and Mostert should be our #2 back. Zamir has no explosion no burst.

His carries were exceptional. His returns were just ok. He's earned more reps

 

[PDX Raider]

Fricking coach is captain obvious. You mean the three prior games in which Zeus showed nothing didn't tell you that?

His returns weren't great but they were light years ahead of White's.
The runs were good but it seemed like we were making big holes at that moment. Not making excuses for Zamir but yesterday and the first three games were nothing alike in terms of run blocking.

 

[raiderfreak7]

This is the type of game that, for no rhyme or reason, we end up winning. Then we get throttled by the Titans.

yep. That's actually what I'm thinking. We end up winning this, everyone gets sucked in for a week, and Titans whoop our ass.
