Each week I provide for you a few highlights of what opposing fans are saying. 

This week, the Colts, from their official message board.. 

Colts fans worried about the rain in Charlotte... 

Quote

Panthers are a ground and pound team, we are a finesse team, reminds me of the superbowl with Colts and Bears

Quote

Reminds me scarily of Colts laying an egg on MNF vs Chargers before turning around on a short week and beating the Broncos at home in 2013 

On how to beat the Carolina Panthers

Quote

Run the Ball

Protect 12

Don't have 12 throw 40+ times

Run the ball


This game has that SF 49ers feel to it when we beat Kapernick & Co. 

A top defense with a suspect offense. If the good Colts show up, we win this easily. Bad Colts show..... Pagano could be looking for a new job sooner than later 

Quote

On offense: RUN THE BALL AND SCREEN PASSES.  Get the ball out of Lucks' hands quick and to the edges away from that DLine and Kuechly.

 

On defense: PRESSURE AND CONTAIN CAM. He doesn't have the weapons to go downfield, so run-blitz like crazy.  If he gets rushed and frustrated, he won't play well.  Single high safety shadowing Olsen should be enough to stop their passing game.

 

X-factor - TOLBERT.  That man is scary, and if they get him going, it will be a long night for our D.  He is like a moving wall when he is a blocker, and he can run and catch...

 

Overall, the Colts fans seem like a pleasant,  knowledgeable bunch that is hard not to like. Will be a nice change of pace from hosting Philly fans a week ago.

lol they say throwing a screen pass gets it away from Kuechly when he's more than likely already diagnosed it and they'll be throwing right to him. Not to mention he has the D-coordinator in his helmet telling him what to expect pre-snap. 

Or they get to the edge away from Luke, but uh oh, maybe they haven't heard of Thomas Davis.

Another fan base thinking outdated ways are how you stop Cam....

pressure Cam and he will falter? Doesn't seem like any opponent has a clue how crazy good Cam has been the last couple seasons under pressure.  It ain't 2012.   Last two seasons Cam has been one of the best in the NFL when pressured. 

As far as running at us.  The Gore style RBs are the ones we always seem to contain.  It is the speeder RBs we tend to bottle up and allow the one or two big runs that always throw are defensive efforts out of whack

The Colts fan base doesn't know much of anything about our team. Hell I wasn't even expecting Cam to play like he has this season, and I follow this team on a daily basis even in the off-season. Colts fans certainly don't know that Cam is playing at an elite level, and that our defense now has the best MLB, DT, and CB in the NFL. They just know Luke is really good, so they probably want the offense to run to the outside to avoid him. Ask the Eagles coaching staff how that dumb ass idea worked.

It seems one of them watched Tolbert's great run on Sportscenter, and so now he's worried about him. Trust me Tolbert is the least of their worries. That interception machine Luck is going to give us an early Christmas. The Colts are not built to ground and pound with their running game against a nasty physical defense. The Colts are a weak high flying passing team that needs to own the air to win. They'll lose in the trenches against us on both sides of the ball, and that will make Luck look very unlucky.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
