Colts Aren’t Finished Making Roster Moves, Sign Two Players

This is something that I don’t like.  I follow this team from OTAs to preseason, and then they throw me off by signing these guys who were waived from the final roster cuts.  However, Polian did get two players today.
The Colts have taken former Lions linebacker Buster Davis (not the wide receiver for the Chargers) and former Packers [...]

The Colts Season According To Madden

I decided to simulate a Madden season to see what the Colts would turn out to be.  This isn’t a true prediction since Peyton could tear his ACL in Week 1 in this game and not have it happen in real life, but it is interesting to see what a computer simulation thinks the Colts [...]

Preseason Review: MVPs and The Last Roster Prediction

The preseason is over.  Finally.  5 games is way too much.  It is such a bitter sweet season.  I’m watching the Colts, but I’m not watching the Colts play a real game with their best players, so I’m not really watching the Colts I know.  It is fun to speculate on who will make the [...]

Colts v. Bengals Preview: It’s Finally Over!

The preseason is coming to an end this week.  In 7 days, the NFL will kickoff, and on Sunday, September 7th, we will see the official opening of Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday Night Football.  So what is the goal for this game?  DON’T GET HURT!  The Colts are continuing tradition of dropping like flies, [...]

40 Players To Look Out For in the 2009 NFL Draft

The NFL may not start for a week, but college football is starting tomorrow.  I know I will be watching the Ball State Cardinals take on Northeast or whatever weak team they are playing.  However, it would be smart for you Colts fans to look out for these prospects.  It is sort of in order [...]

Roster Cuts & Injuries Mean…

A new roster prediction!  Yeah!
In case you haven’t heard, the Colts had to dump 5 players by today.  The sad part is that two of them weren’t cut but placed on the Injured Reserve.
TJ Rushing and Zac Herold both were placed on the IR today.  Rushing hurt his right knee in the Buffalo game, and [...]

Colts v. Bills Review

Wow.  This was a terrible game.  Just terrible.  I couldn’t even pay attention for most of it.  Seeing the roof open was cool though.
I can’t even do a best player rundown.  This game was that bad.  The only notables were Devin Aromashodu with his one catch that went 94 yards for a score and Eric [...]

Colts v. Bills Preview

Tonight, Lucas Oil Stadium will host its first NFL game.  Sure, it’s preseason, but it’s still a milestone.  Remember the first four years of the decade?  We didn’t know whether the Colts were going to be in Indianapolis for much longer.  It seemed imminent that they would move to Los Angeles.  In late 2004, they [...]

Lucas Oil Stadium Pictures

Today I was lucky enough to get an all-access pass to the high school football games at Lucas Oil Stadium.  I was only there for the last two games, so I didn’t have enough time to see everything.  I will probably do a full-blown review tomorrow (spoiler: there will be a lot of 10 out [...]
