Week 6 Monday Night Thread : Colts vs Titans

Battle of a couple of AFC teams that shouldn't have any direct relevance for us, since we don't play anyone on the AFC South this year and we won't meet any of them unless its in the Super Bowl. 

The game is fairly interesting though for a few reasons. Currently, all the teams in the AFC south have 3 losses so the division is wide open and both teams have alot to play for. Mariotta is coming back from an injury for the Titans, meanwhile Luck is still out and who knows when he might be back, based on the lack of information im guessing it might be very late in the season or not at all . The Titans have two Heismann winners at  QB and RB (Mariotta and Henry). 

Since this was the first year I followed the draft process so closely , rookies to watch : Adoree Jackson  , Taywan Taylor , Malik Hooker, Marlon Mack. Corey Davis is out with a hamstring.

What an ugly Monday night matchup

yea, im not particularly invested in either teams . I did follow Malik Hooker alot during the draft process , and wanted  us to draft Derrick Henry in 2015 so at least have a passing interest in some of the players

Very impressive run by rookie RB Marlon Mack for the Colts . With all the success these mid to late round RBs are having , it leaves me wondering what we couldve done drafting Barnett, Hooker, or OJ Howard in the 1st  and getting a mid round rb later .

it sereiously depresses me to see other teams olines blasting the defense back  multiple yards before the RB gets to the line of scrimmage. What in the clusterfug happened to our olines run blocking? 

This is exactly what I was thinking while watching the 1st half. The Colts O-line is notoriously bad, but Gore and Mack have had some nice run lanes.

      Dan Morgan on Rich Eisen show

      Lol.  Now you make me defend DG. We had the best IOL in the league under DG and Oher looked solid until he got that bad concussion. DG drafted Moton and Daryl Williams as well. The OL fell apart under Hurney 2.0 and Fitterer. DG also drafted Star and Short. Sorry, but that was all in 5 drafts so let’s not make stuff up about not trying to improve hog mollies. Gettleman did a ton wrong and took the wrong guys, but he and Rivera had a deep and talented team and it got blown up really quickly. Also, I love Cam but he wasn’t the best QB in the league. He had the best year in 2015 but he wasn’t Brady. I think Dan has had a solid offseason, way better than last year but I’m not putting on rose colored glasses until we actually have a 10 win season. Again, Dave and Ron had 3 10+ wins seasons out of 5.

      Yeah I wont often comment on a coddled generation and participation trophies but this sort of begs for it. Also how did an athlete achieve at that level without getting a thicker skin?

      Right, basically what I said. Dude is crowning Dan after a 5-12 season and 1 draft, which as of right now, wasn’t good. I wasn’t judging Morgan at all. People read what they want to read like that I loved Gettleman and think he was awesome. Nope. All I said is that it’s way too freaking early to act like Morgan is amazing. I used the Gettleman/Rivera record just like I mentioned that Rhule almost beat both #1 seeds in this first year. Morgan/Canales’ team would need to win 11 a year to get to a similar record as Gettleman/Rivera’s first 5. If you are going to given Morgan a pass for bad talent, we were 15-33 the 3 years prior to Gettleman/Rivera. Again, I think all of us want this team to win again but maybe I’m a little jaded in thinking that I enjoyed 2013-2017 a helluva a lot more than 2018-2024 and I’m not a fan of smoke getting blown up my ass like we have already back.
