...is not living up to the pre-draft hype. He goes 22/44 today for 280 yards, 0 TDs, 2 INTs, 1 fumble and the Colts get blown out by the struggling Jets. Last week Luck was praised for beating Rodgers and the Packers in a nice win, doubt you hear much of his struggles today media wise.

For the year he's completing about 50% of his passes, has 7 TDs, and 7 INTs, with about 1,500 yards, 77 QB rating thru 6 weeks. Dissappointing for a #1 overall pick pegged as the next "Peyton". He's a young player and his team sucks, but Ive still yet to see anything from this guy in the last 3 years that would make me describe him as DYNAMIC.

Has no run game, no defense, and no receivers... that being said, he hasn't played as well as he could, but he's still a rookie. Of course we slow to judge Luck, but Tannehill is over in Miami and he really does have nothing to work with and he has played stellar.

lol Reggie Wayne is no receivers.

He missed some throws today and made a couple of bad decision. However he did make some great throws and had a couple of drops. He's displaying great poise in the pocket too and doing things at the line of scrimmage most rookies can't.

However, the Colts (2-3) and the Fins (3-3) have basically the same record. The Colts would be 3-2 if it weren't for a late FG by the Jags.

Just ask the Saints what it's like not to have the HC.

I'll be happy if the Colts finish 8-8. Realisticly, they will probably end up being 4-12.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
