Week Six: Baltimore Ravens at Indianapolis Colts- Open Thread

Baltimore Ravens @ Indianapolis Colts

Week Six: Baltimore Ravens (2-2) at Indianapolis Colts (2-2)
Location: Lucas Oil Stadium- Indianapolis, IN
Kick-off Time: 1:00pm Eastern
Broadcast: CBS
SB Nation Co-Blog: Baltimore Beatdown
Tony Dungy stated on Friday that the practice on that day was one of the better ones so far this year. This week, we may see some key, young players step up and play significant snaps. With Kelvin Hayden waiting on the recommendations for his injured knee, Tim Jennings will step into the starting CB spot, with Dante Hughes playing nickel. Jennings and Hughes had a very spirited competition for the nickel spot in training camp. From what I saw at camp, it made both players better. We will see if that translates to better performance on the field.
Also, the Colts may start rookie LBer Philip Wheeler at SAM backer today over Clint Session. Session has a calf injury, and while Clint did practice on Friday, Wheeler may still get the starting nod. Dwight Freeney is nursing a sore hamstring, but there is a strong indicator he will play.
It remains to be seen if Charlie Johnson or Tony Ugoh will start at LT for Indy. I really hope it is Ugoh. He is not on the injury list. This means he is healthy. This means he should be playing. If he isn't, then that means he was benched. Regardless, it is nice to finally start seeing some continuity out of the o-line. Hopefuly it stays that way. Only one player has started the season at the same spot on the o-line this year (Ryan Diem).
As always, the Baltimore side of things is getting covered by Rexx and his crew of seafood-loving mates at Baltimore Beatdown. Special thanks to them for recommending some good seafood places in Baltimore. This is your open thread for the game.
Go Indianapolis Colts!

For the Ravens

QB Troy Smith (3rd), CB Samari Rolle, S Dawan Landry, DB Fabian Washington, T David Hale, T Adam Terry, WR Marcus Smith, DT Lamar Divens.

That’s a starting corner, starting SS, starting RT and their nickelback

Shannon Sharpe still hates the Colts

He says he’d rather have Eli Manning than Peyton Manning as his QB

Muir

Why is Daniel Muir inactive again?

by sharpie1600 on Oct 12, 2008 12:42 PM EDT 0 recs

no idea

supposedly he’s ahead of Ramsey on the depth chart, but Ramsey is active and he isn’t. He wasn’t on the injury report. It can’t be a learning the system issue because Ramsey jumped right in from being a 3-4 DE in San Fransico. Muir is converting from a 4-3 DE.

It’s gotta be like Ugoh. Either he’s healthy enough to practice, but not enough to play well or he’s benched but the coaches won’t admit it.

Trade

Is there any chance of the Colts doing another late trade for a DT?

BBS talked about it here

I kind of doubt it.

Fuck

Why is Howard always out? I wanna see him play damn it. >=l

Freeney is going

and Curtis Johnson plays special teams. The day teams stop running on the Colts constantly is the day Howard will be active while Freeney and Mathis are healthy.

Browns are awful

I’d be tempted, but stick with Peyton.

Does anyone feel like they’re watching a game at Texas Stadium?

It wasnt an error by the colts was it?

I would rather Baltimore make a great play than be it something the Colts did wrong
