Colts 2024 - Embrace The Future

[ChristianPatriot]

C’mon man. Have some faith!

Son and I bought tickets to the Bears game. He’s a bears fan. I really hope AR is healthy and plays well. If the Colts lose I’m gonna have to hear it for the whole 2-hour trip back home.

If AR plays the whole season, 10 wins feels like the floor.

OTA’s this week. Just stay healthy fellas. I don’t want to hear about any ACL’s or hamstrings or anything like that.

Welp. Hope it’s not serious.

Positive news on Pitt

Lots of receivers signing some massive contracts recently. Colts seemed to have played it pretty smart with Pittman.

And it ain’t over. Jefferson will set the mark Chase will beat, and Hill will beat all of them straining the dolphins and weakening the team…

As a Colts fan, do you hope that AD Mitchell reaches Justin Jefferson level as a receiver and the team will just have to deal with a massive contract? Or is that contract just too big and you don’t want any Colts receiver at that level?

Next up, Chase…

I believe that college football will continue to produce top level receivers at a good clip and prices will level out, though not at quite as low as running backs. That said it will be interesting to see how these massive contracts work out.

Would Chase be Chase we know without Burrow? Will Jefferson be as good without Cousins? How good would Hill be if he played with Brisset and Foles his whole career?

Receivers are important but they cannot win games by themselves, so no, I don’t sacrifice the team to overpay a receiver…

I have no doubt that they could program some AI to track every single player in real time, but the games would be completely unwatchable.
There would be 5 flags on every play.

As much as everybody, including me, complains about the refs, the human element is just part of the game. And it should be. QB’s make mistakes. Receivers make mistakes. Safeties make mistakes. Refs make mistakes. I don’t want to watch a league of robots playing other robots.

I’d be curious to see what Ballard offered. He also said during the draft he tried to make a big trade up. Chris feeling the heat? Getting some pressure to win the division and make a playoff run?

 

[ChristianPatriot]

Dangit man. Gettin thin at safety.

 

[ChristianPatriot]

Steichen loves him some explosives.

And of course this is with Minshew for most of the season. AR and company are gonna go crazy.

 

[ChristianPatriot]

Sheesh. I can’t even imagine what Richardson’s contract will be in a few years.

Just in case you weren’t feeling old today, TY has a son committed to go to Wisconsin.

Good article on AR

Anthony Richardson's film, albeit limited, doesn't lie. There's supernova talent and plays waiting for the Colts

For Richardson to stay on this path of a true needle-moving QB, one with the upside of a perennial MVP candidate, he has to learn how to take care of his body and get down or rid of the ball a half-beat quicker.

Good read.

Only one quibble.

Other than the run against Houston where he let up for half a millisecond and took a cheap shot, I honestly haven’t seen any examples of what Richardson could’ve done any differently to avoid injuries. He does not play recklessly. He does not run recklessly. He avoids sacks better than anybody. Many other quarterbacks, including ones drafted the same year he was, are way more wild and aggressive when outside the pocket.

The tackle that took him out for the season was a routine tackle. He wasn’t fighting for extra yards or diving for the endzone. He just got very very unlucky.
