THANK YOU 2012 COLTS... WHAT A YEAR! CHUCKSTRONG COLTSTRONG

[Luminiferous]

Luck 4183 yards 21 TD.. 11-5... 7 game winning drives

RG3 3100 yards, 20 TD.. 10-6 ... 2 game winning drives

So RG3 only had to come from behind twice, whereas Luck had to come from behind seven times..

What the fuck is wrong with Irsay? Is that guy a drunk?

And what is that hat he's wearing? As far as I know, the Colts aren't "Champions" of anything this season except for 2nd place.

Nothing's wrong with Irsay. He's still the best owner in the league. And that is the Colts 2006 Super Bowl champions hat he is wearing. I'll be wearing mine this week as well.

You have to live in the distant past. Prior to this year, the Skins last division title was in 1999. Meanwhile, from 2000-2009, the Colts had the most successful decade of any team in history. We won the division title SIX times. We went to two Super Bowls, and won one. I'm used to winning. YOU clearly are not.

2006 isn't that long ago. I remember it like it was yesterday.

For the record, I stand by everything I've ever said.

COLTS HAD BEST REGULAR SEASON RECORD FROM 2000-2010!!! FACT!

2000-2010 - Patriots 126
2000-2010 - Colts 125

Oh, by the way, the Patriots from 2000-2009:
Division Titles: 7 and two they didn't win they were tied for first.
Went to 4 Super Bowls and won 3.
Patriots 2000-2009 > COLTS! 2000-2009.

Idiot troll.

[Crazy Levi]

And I remember 1991 like it was yesterday.

Doesn't change the fact that you are living in the past.

2012 - Redskins Division Champions.

Pretty sure the Colts' last division championship was years ago.

Certainly wasn't this year.

So you wouldn't trade your precious 11-5 record for a division title?!



Colts haven't won a division title in years.

Redskins won one 4 days ago.

Present > Past

And, come Sunday, the Redskins will have exactly the same amount of wins as your Wild-Card Colts.

Wow, just when You thought He couldn't get more delusional. So now We're relying on regular season wins to account for true succsess? Well fuck that must make Don Shula the greatest coach in history and for his entire tenure in Miami the most succsessful coach despite Knolls and Walsh winning 4 titles and Gibbs winning 3. Shula managed to win 2 himself but also lost 3 but that dosent matter because He had 2 losing seasons his entire career. Your nutswinging knows no bounds.

Tom Brady won 3 Super Bowls in that time. Most of the time laying a beating on the playoff choker Peyton Manning. The Pats were a much more successful franchise, and still are.

[Crazy Levi]

Then why are you always talking about how fabulous Indianoplace is?

It's a flyover shithole famous for ONE thing - a car race. Nobody gives two fucks about that country bumpkin truck stop.

Your "ego" is so bruised you are constantly trying to pump it up.

You don't care about how the rest of the country views that cute little burg, just like you don't care about RG3 and the Redskins.

Great article on Reggie Wayne and what he means to the COLTS:

Wayne hoping Colts can make his dream come true
By By MICHAEL MAROT | Associated Press – 10 hrs ago



INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Reggie Wayne has an emphatic message for his teammates. He's got bigger plans for this year's Indianapolis Colts.

Less than 12 months after taking less money to play for a team in major rebuilding mode and then leading it back to the playoffs as he had promised, Wayne has started concocting all sorts of grand possibilities in his mind.

"If all goes well, if my dreams are correct, I won't be playing in this (Pro Bowl) game. I have a bigger game to play in and my dreams normally come true," Wayne said with a chuckle after earning his sixth Pro Bowl selection. "Let's hope that this one is headed in that direction."

Wayne is no mentalist, just a good-natured optimist and a key reason Indianapolis (11-5) is hitting the road to face AFC North champion Baltimore (10-6) in a wild-card round game Sunday.

Clearly, the Colts needed Wayne's presence this season and not just because of his skills on the field.

He showed this young, unproven offense what it takes to excel in the NFL, how to stick around a while, and what it means to play this game with purpose and passion. The results have been nothing short of remarkable.

Quarterback Andrew Luck set NFL rookie records for most yards passing and most attempts in a season. He tied the NFL single-season mark for game-winning fourth-quarter drives, broke Peyton Manning's franchise rookie mark for completions, set a new Colts record for rushing TDs by a quarterback and presided over a historic turnaround.

Indy's rookies also combined for 3,108 yards rushing and receiving, the most of any team since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, according to STATS LLC.

And at age 34, Wayne gave no indication he was slowing down. The New Orleans native hauled in 106 receptions for 1,355 yards — the second-best marks of his career — and tied Marvin Harrison for the franchise's most 1,000-yard seasons (eight). He moved into the top 10 on the NFL's reception list (968), the top 15 in yards receiving (13,063) and broke the NFL record for most consecutive games with three or more catches (64), all while putting football into perspective for these rookies.

"Reggie really is the leader of the offense," Luck said. "Everything he does helps us out. He sets a great example for all the young, new guys that are on the team - myself included -- and he is a lot of fun to throw the ball to."

When it comes to work, though, Wayne is all business.

During the first week of training camp, he hung around after practice in the blazing sun to catch balls from the Jugs machine. He started by himself. Each day, though, the crowd increased and within days, seemingly every receiver on the team was waiting behind one of the NFL's top receivers.

That didn't change when the Colts returned to their team complex.

"You know his professionalism, I think that's big especially with the young group on that side of the ball," safety Antoine Bethea said when asked what Wayne's most important contribution has been. "Just showing them how to be a professional, how to be a pro. ... You see him in the weight room, but you'd never know anything is wrong with him because he's out there every day on the practice field and you can count on him every Sunday."

But it almost didn't work out.

Two days before Indy's miserable 2-14 season ended in 2011 and about to become an unrestricted free agent, Wayne packed up his locker, took down his nameplate and spoke somberly to reporters as if his career in Indy was about to end.

The Colts did send many of Wayne's longtime pals -- Joseph Addai, Gary Brackett, Dallas Clark and Manning -- packing in March. Jeff Saturday and Pierre Garcon, a receiver Wayne helped groom, signed free agent contracts with other teams, and most figured that with Indianapolis going young and trying to shed big-dollar contracts, Wayne would go somewhere else, too.

That's when new coach Chuck Pagano, who befriended Wayne when the two were at the University of Miami, made a personal request.

"Basically I told him, I said I don't want to do this without you," Pagano said. "I said, 'If we're going to get this thing done and move forward and get back to the winning ways that this organization and certainly our fans in the community are used to, we need you back. I want to do this with you. We all want you back.'"

Wayne had to weigh more lucrative offers from other teams with his passion for playing in front of the fans who chant "Reg-gie, Reg-gie" each week. Speculation focused on New England, Indy's bitter rival. Andre Johnson, a friend of Wayne's from the Hurricanes, said Wayne wanted to join him in Houston, too.

After reflecting on Pagano's words, Wayne turned down the extra money, re-signed with the Colts for three years and $17.5 million so he could help the franchise re-establish itself as a Super Bowl contender and made good on his word.

"This is the journey that all teams want to take," Wayne said. "This is the approach that we wanted. We wanted to give ourselves a chance."

He never imagined the twists and turns of this odyssey would go quite like this.

In April, Wayne's poster-sized photo replaced Peyton Manning's on the facade of Lucas Oil Stadium. On Sept. 26, Pagano began the first of three rounds of chemotherapy after being diagnosed with leukemia. On Oct. 7, wearing orange gloves to support his ailing coach and leukemia awareness, Wayne capped a 13-catch, 212-yard game by stretching the ball over the goal line with 35 seconds left to give Indy a 30-27 victory over Green Bay.

On Dec. 23, Wayne hauled in a 7-yard TD pass with 4:08 to break a 13-13 tie and give Indy its playoff-clinching victory.

And now, he has a vision to finish off this storybook season the right way.

"It's a good one, a good dream," Wayne said. "I won't tell you the complete ending of it but it's a good one."

Great article about London Fletcher and what he means to the REDSKINS:

DeAngelo Hall says he’d take London Fletcher over Ray Lewis
By Stephen Whyno

The Washington Times

When Ray Lewis announced Wednesday that this will be his last NFL season, a discussion ensued in the Washington Redskins‘ locker room. The subject of the Baltimore Ravens legend’s retirement led to talk about Redskins linebacker London Fletcher.

“Guys were like, you could argue Fletch has had a better career,” cornerback DeAngelo Hall said. “Might not have had all the hype and things like that, but if I’m starting a team, I love Ray Lewis to death, but if I’m starting a team, I’m taking 59 every day of the week.”

It’s a hard argument to make in most corners. Lewis is a seven-time first-team All-Pro and was selected for the Pro Bowl 13 times during his career. Fletcher has never been a first-team All-Pro and has three Pro Bowls on his resume.

But Hall’s point, even as he praised Lewis to the heavens, was that Fletcher hasn’t gotten deserved recognition over the years.

“Ray’s made it sexy to be a middle linebacker in this National Football League,” Hall said. “In a league that’s so offensive-driven, it’s hard to kind of get that buzz. It took Fletch 12 years to actually get to a Pro Bowl even those his numbers kind of justified he should’ve been there already.”

Fletcher has 1,685 career tackles to Lewis’ 1,336, according to NFL.com stats. Fletcher also has the active NFL record for consecutive games played at 240. Fletcher (1999 St. Louis Rams) and Lewis (2000 Ravens) were both starting linebackers on Super Bowl-champion teams.

On Thursday, Fletcher was named NFC Defensive Player of the Month for December. That he has managed to maintain a high level of play despite a lingering left ankle injury did not come as a surprise to Hall.

“I don’t think if you knew he had an ankle injury, nobody would know if it wasn’t reported on the injury report,” Hall said. “That’s just the kind of competitor he is, man. He kind of battles through in practice every day and somehow in the game he looks a hundred percent fresh.”

"That's the rookie of the year right there! That sealed it for Andrew Luck." - Ron Jaworski after Andrew Luck's 70-yard TD pass.

Looks like Jaws has sobered up.


Ron Jaworski's 2012 QB ratings;

10. RG3

11. Andrew Leaf

12. Wilson

Yeah, I'll take Ron Jaworski's word over that of a depressed Dolphin fan turned RGTebow nutswinger.

Yeah, me too. Another Gregg troll backfires

WILD CARD WEEKEND IS UPON US. Big game tomorrow in Charm City. The place where it all started for the horseshoe. Many great memories of going up there and getting victories during the Peyton Manning era. I believe tomorrow will be no different. I like Arians to dial up a genius offensive game plan that will take advantage of Baltimore's aging defense. I like Coach Pagano to set up the right looks to put Flacco on the ground and give our corners some opportunities to make plays. The main key on defense is of course stopping Ray Rice. We must not only solidify the middle, but we MUST set the edge and close those cut back gaps. That's the thing that has hurt us in recent weeks, and the team is well aware of that. On offense, just protect Luck and give him time to make the plays he's been making all year, it's that simple!!

COLTS win 27-17
