I call it.

I know, i know, i'm jumping the gun a little. But seriously, that presents an interesting matchup... how do you think we'd fare against them? I'd imagine a game very similar to the one we played against the Broncos... not in the final score so much as matchups and strategies.

It would be interesting, but no way Indy makes it to the SB. yeah they have won the last oh what 8/9 games they have played, but im pretty sure they havent blown opponents out the way we have, Cincy doesnt count haha.

Defense would be the key in this game and I dont see them stopping our run game....If they did Smith would make some key plays (as always.)

But if our DT's arent 100% getting pressure in Mannings face would be hard and they could just burn Lucas all day.

I can see the colts going all the way. I see them beating the titans as well as the steelers.

Our run game would gash them like nobody's business... 'finesse' doesn't work on double trouble. I think they'd try a denver-esque tactic of stacking the box early to force us to pass, and then smitty would have a hayday. and like the broncs, they'd be pass-happy all day long, and the game would be decided by whether or not our pass D could step up to the plate.

I think we'd win it.

Is this something that you and "Chucky" discussed at McDonalds? You're on a roll this morning.

Agreed. For some reason I've been thinking both the Panthers and Colts would end up in the SB. It does seem unlikely, because the Colts don't have the best playoff track record, other than the SB year of course. But I think this year's team is different. As for the Panthers, I'm a complete homer, so I'm just assuming they'll go all the way. :ihih:

      I appreciate the honesty in your posts--I am not sure Canales is rusing(?) because I don't think we are good enough yet to draft players for depth on day 1.  I do think we are in limbo, fwiw.  At 19, I think you are drafting second rounders in the first.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      By strato · Posted

      We are in a unique situation here. Just my opinion. Three things: Moton’s playing health has been gradually declining as he is aging, while his contract is a drag on the payroll.  Something will give with him sooner than later but I think 2026 could be it.  So.. need a right tackle by 2027. At the latest.    Icky’s individual situation is unique as well. They would have had an extension done by now if not for the injury. We only have him for this year. With no assurance he will ever be the same player.  It would be reckless just to assume. Now we have Walker for one year. And that is a major relief. Maybe he is the answer, but the team that knows him best let him go and it was cheap for us to sign him. So how much did they value him?    We look to be needing two tackles by 2027.  And have poo for depth this year as well. So anyway we could draft a guy for 2027 RT and groom him this year, and see how Icky does, and act as needed in 2027. Spread out filling the two holes over 2 years.    Then I remember, hey if Bryce doesn’t get a Lot more consistent do they extend him? Hoping not, if he isn’t really good.    So then we are looking at the 2027 draft which people say is gonna be loaded with QBs. If we need a LT and a QB what is the pick gonna get spent on?   Taking into account the recovery success rates cited here on the Icky surgery, you might want to plan for him to not be the same player. rather than assume he will be and get caught with your pants down.  It is a tough situation.    And factor in that it is critically important to protect this QB, always, but especially this year where it is said to be make or break. And how you might feel about that.    All of it points to a real possibility that these things converge in the negative, like Bruce sucks and Icky is not the same. In that case if you want to be assured of getting LT secured, the only place you can do that through the draft could be very well be 2026 1st round.     For me, I would like to err on the side of caution.  Cover for these outcomes. It wouldn’t be fun. Added benefit is if we do have a tackle go down this year we will have a guy there. Because I don’t know what we have now.

      Mike Kaye: “I would keep a pretty close eye on {KC Concepcion}.”

      I agree. In a perfect world I wouldn’t want to draft another WR, but in this draft it’s fine based on the value of who will be there at #19.  All of the top tier guys worth pick #19 at other positions of need will be long gone. Only exception is Dillon Thieneman, but he’s almost a shoe in for the Vikings as the Harrison Smith replacement. Some posters on here want to draft an OT just to check a box without realizing the concerns and risk that comes along with said player. Sounds like XL to me… desperately drafting need… KC is a pretty safe player.  Produced all 3 years in college and last year in the SEC vs a lot of top corners in this years draft. He single handily dropped the South Carolina CB Brandon Cisse’s draft stock with how bad he abused him.   Sometimes it’s best to try and hit a double instead of going for the home run. This draft screams “go for the double”. Esp in the first.
