Since It’s The Hall of Fame Game On Sunday

There is no better time to look at the Indianapolis Colts current Hall of Famer.  This guy started off the trend of great Colts running backs.  It’s been a while since the Colts haven’t had a perennial Pro Bowler at running back, and this back out of Southern Methodist was the first to run for [...]

Pitcock Quits, So It’s Time For Another Roster Prediction

Quinn Pitcock has retired from professional football.  I guess he pulled a Ricky Williams.  Indy still hold his rights, so if he would change is mind like Brett Favre, he would have to play for the Colts.  Good thing that this happened at arguably our deepest position.  I’m sure some of the other defensive tackles can [...]

Training Camp Musings: July 26th

The injury bug bites again.  Melvin Bullitt and Philip Wheeler both got hurt today.  Bullitt had a sprained thumb, so he probably won’t miss the Hall of Fame Game August 3rd.  However, the news is not so good for Philip Wheeler.
Wheeler couldn’t finish practice because he “injured a knee”.  The fact that it doesn’t say “bruised [...]

Training Camp Musings: July 25th

Today is the first practice of the 2008 training camp.  Even though the first practice just ended, there’s been a lot of news.
~Clint Session has been practicing with the first team at strongside linebacker.  Of course, it would be surprising for a rookie (Wheeler) to be starting there anyways.
~Peyton Manning did not report.  He has been [...]

Sorgi Has Competition

According to the biggest idiot on the blogosphere, Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, Jared Lorenzen and Quinn Gray have signed with the Colts.  Rotoworld, a more competent site has confirmed this, so we can welcome Gray and The Hefty Lefty as official members of the Colts.
Florio said that this means the Colts don’t think Manning might [...]

6 Rookies Sign

Three rookies have now signed.  One of them is undrafted.
Sam Giguere, the French-Canadian wide receiver, signed a two year contract with an option for a third.  Here is the original article for all of you French scholars, and here is the poorly translated version via Babel Fish.
Also, Jacob Tamme and Mike Pollak have signed.  Both [...]

Colts News: July 22nd

ESPN.com is now saying Peyton Manning might be ready in the preseason.  ESPN Radio in Chicago reported that days ago.  ESPN.com isn’t the best place for breaking news.
Marvin has been cleared to practice and will participate at training camp.  That means Peyton, Bob Sanders, Dwight Freeney, Tom Santi, Tyjuan Hagler, and Ryan Lilja will be [...]

Final Pre-Training Camp Colts Roster Prediction

Players report on Thursday, so this is one of the last days to do a roster prediction.  It feels like now is the best time for one, so here it goes.  53 players make it on the roster, 8 on the practice squad, and I will put 10 that should keep in touch if injuries take [...]

On the “Waddle and Silvy Show” on ESPN Radio in Chicago, Coach Tony Dungy had a few comments (which you can hear here) that can make a Colts fan day.
“Marvin’s doing great and should be ready to go when training camp opens,” said coach Dungy, “He was running pretty well at our offseason workouts and really smiling [...]
