If that's props then Iggy is a Cleveland fan.

I didn't waver from thinking they were Luck, Vontae, and a bunch of meh.
Guess you have never experienced your team losing to Tim Tebow in the playoffs.

IF Manning was garbage, and he was.....then how can the Broncos with 8 other Pro Bowlers not beat the Colts who only have 3 very good players?....at home

On another note.....leading a team to 6 Super Bowls is just hard to fathom.

And the Patriots have a .759 winning % since Brady took over....no one else in football within .100 and only 3 other teams over .600

LOL at the Colts.

They are going to give Luck $25 million a year to continually come up short in big games.

They deserve everything that's coming their way in the next decade.

LOL at the Steelers for cutting Blount.

They allow a rapist to start at QB but apparently draw the line at whatever Blout was doing as being detrimental.

They didn't have 8 players who played at a pro bowl level that game.

And you said it yourself: Manning was garbage. Your post undersells the importance of that incredibly important fact.

Colts get no credit for Manning being garbage? The Bengals defensive backfield get no credit for beating Manning either?

They won the division and advanced the the AFC Championship game.....a greatly successful season despite trading for T-Rich which clearly greatly affected them.

Why? I can't help that you think the rest of the Colts deserve more credit than I'm giving them.


Edit: as in it's cool we disagree

I don't agree with much of what else you've said, but the Colts are fortunate to have a young, great QB. Not many in the AFC can say that.

Seattle opened as a 2.5 point favorite and its now Pats -1. Might as well wait until it hits 1.5 or 2.

That was brutal!

Looks like Luck is gonna cash in. Probably a good idea to lcok him up and we will see how salary cap friendly it will be. They need help at the WR spot opp side of Hilton and DL help. They are close though and I think Lukc will continue to get better. Probably need to run the ball better.

Yeah, woulda been nice to have blount when Bell got hurt, but the fact of the matter was that Blount was a backup, was pouting and started to walk off the field late in a game when he wasnt getting any snaps.



When the packers DB went down after that last pick my step son asked why he had done that and explained...well up by 12 with 5 to go and the lead was good enough and what if he fumbled it back? He said he woulda keep going!

Well...............

He wasn't getting snaps because you guys were running him out of town. All because the team was pissed he got caught with Bell with pot. Not because it was pot, because it was Bell.

He wasnt getting snaps because Bell was doing something that no other steelers RB has ever been able to do in terms of running and receiving. He emerged as a RB that could do it all. Blount got jealous and pouted.
When a back is getting almost 5 yards a carry and catching 5 balls a game out of the backfield AND splitting him out wide that is tough to want to take him out of the game.

Defend it however you choose. But you ran a guy out of town who is welcome in New England​. Says more about you than him.
