I really like him but love Qua Cox, definitely think both can make the final roster.

Brazill suspended for the year, good riddance to him so. Least we are well set in that position.

Guy is such a waste of talent! On and off the field! Was never gonna be a WR1 or anything, but he could have carved himself out a nice little 10 year career as a number 3 and maybe even get a nice WR2 contract off a dumb/desperate team!

No surprises to hear Brazil was cut today by the Colts. We've also signed UDFA WR Aaron Burke. I'm not able to post links yet, but the news is on nfl.com.

Did himself no favors. Dunno how it looks though with Irsays case coming up.

Double standards IMO!

Thats gutting, thought he would have had a good year. Waiting for the inevitable Bradshaw injury now and leaves us with all our eggs in Trent Richardson's basket :rolleyes:

Or run into traffic
I hope Grigson doesnt trade for a running back.

Was at the Giants game last night. The first team looked really good. The defence looks like it's going to be better this year. Front seven was awesome. The offense looks to have unlimited potential with Nicks showing up really well. The only worrying aspect is the running game. The o-line just can't run block. Eli and the Giants were awful. I was excited to see a super bowl winning QB in person but he couldn't get anything going.

Could be a step back season now. Way too many holes, Mathis was all of our pass rush.

Titans message boards have gone stratospheric with this news, he wasnt playing in the first 4 games (1 against us) but not having him for the season is a hammer blow and one that should help the Titans and Locker get a few more wins and a few more losses for you lads

I'm not overly worried! We have a mastermind in place at DC who will mitigate the fact we have no pass rushers with his brilliance!!




Oh no sorry Greg Manusky is still out DC!

We were robbed last night by that bad call but cant be letting leads like that slip. I really dont rate any of our coaching staff. Pagano isnt that good, while Peps play calling is a joke. I wish Arians had stayed and got the Head coach job, look how well he is doing in Arizona. This team isnt very good and and with poor coaching, Luck is going to have to carry us again this year. Would love to somehow make a trade for Harbaugh next season or maybe the niners will turf him out before then.

on the plus side, our run game looked better.

I hate the way we are run the ball first though. We got Andrew Luck as QB.

You're absolutely right on that. We need to be able to run the ball but with the players we've got, we should be pass first all the way.

So 2 & 2!

This was probably to be expected although I did think we would beat the eagles in Lucas Oil!

I'm not going to take a huge amount out of the last two weeks though the passing game has looked very good! Having said that I think we all knew that if the line could give Luck time in the pocket then he would put up big numbers with the receivers we have! I genuinely believe we have one of the best overall receiving corpse in the league - at least depth wise anyway!

Defence has had an easy enough ride the last two weeks, but again a TE does us a lot of damage!

I'd say an average enough start, which when you play in the AFC south as it is now, means you will win the division! I'm not sold on the Texans at all!

And as for Reggie.....was there ever any doubt!!!

well done lads, not surprised you won, bit surprised of how easy it was.
We were bloody awful.

Surprised by the scoreline too. We dont have a great team either bar our receivers but just shows the importance of having a quality QB.

You really have to wonder about the NFL PED policy! I mean it's so obvious he's on steroids!

Bit sad about Da'Rick to be honest! So much potential!

I don't think anybody could claim to be surprised by the suspension.

Stephen Holder has just called Landry a mercenary on twitter! Holder is essentially (if you don't know him) the Colts PR guy in the media! It doesn't sound much (and is obviously true) but my reading between the lines means the team are pretty pissed off with Landry!

Again this brings me back to Bethea! I understand keeping Landry because of the money invested in him but I just don't see how they couldn't have gotten a deal done with Bethea! At the time I thought they would move Landry to SS (where he is better suited IMO cuz he can't cover for ****) and bring in a specialist FS but they haven't done that!

Was Howell the plan all along? Did they plan on getting a starting safety in the draft with no selection in the first 60 odd picks? I like Howell....as a back up! And Landry strikes me as the kind of guy who picks and chooses when he plays!

Whole situation is shambolic IMO!

Pagano is welcome back to Baltimore as defensive coordinator any day!
