On the "we'll see"s

Dawson would seem to be the most mportant to have back. Of course Sanders’ absence makes Giordano’s more crucial as well.

Looking forward to seeing Saturday and Clark back in action.

Muir could be big too

the NES guys liked him, or at least one did I don’t remember. He’s a 300lber with penetration ability.

If history has taught us anything

Neither Dawson or Muir will play. Other than Bob prior to the New England game two years ago, I can’t remember the last time a Colts guy was really “questionable” and he went ahead and played.

the Colts are not big fans of the doubtful or probably tags

most weeks the report only has outs and questionables. The probable on Marlin I’d guess is just there because they had to list him as something after cutting his reps Thursday.

I think questionable doesn’t really tell you anything from the Colts, they use it when most other teams (and they probably are suppose to) use a doubtful or probable label.

Hmm ....

I think with Sanders out, it makes missing Giordano a big deal as well, he has been a solid back up and i think he and Bullitt made a good duo to step in for Hot Bobby

Also ..

it stinks to still see Tamme hurt and Roy Hall still recovering as well. I’ve said it before, after the bye week, when everyone (hopefully) returns to the line up – this is going to be a very, very dangerous offense.

I still think they should hold Saturday out until after the bye.

All I know is if he ends up hurt, all the people here at Stampede Blue saying how it is great to have him back better not change their tune and slam Dungy and Polian and Jeff by saying he was rushed back and should have sat out. Those that endorse him playing this game have drawn their line in the sand so they better stay on that side.

I for one would love to be proven wrong and am hoping I am but I simply have a bad feeling about this.

You are right.

That is too often the case. When someone takes a chance and it works, they’re a hero. When it doesn’t, they’re dog food. Armchair qb’s are both fickle and annoying. I would also rather rest Saturday until after the bye, but I doubt I’ll slam the management if he gets hurt. They have all the facts and will make the best decision with that. However, it is probably those who want him to play this game that will turn on Dungy and company if something goes wrong.

Saturday

go colts

I agree with you I think they would be able to get through this game with Justice or depending on formation Richard as center, who knows maybe they have plans of a rotation.

They already held Saturday out once

after a full week of practice last week. If the guy can handle 2 weeks of full reps in practice you have to go with him.

I disagree first off they announced 6 weeks to recover from his injury 8 weeks I believe if he had surgery and it’s been what going on the 4 week.

Reps in practice is a far site different than actual game play and the man coming at you is there to take you out not like a team mate playing against you.

I believe they are letting him come back to soon and if he gets hurt again recovery may be next season.

by Ufanforreal on Sep 20, 2008 7:44 PM EDT up reply actions  

it's one of three things

1. They are pushing him back too early

2. They got the severity of the injury wrong (they almost IRed Clark in 2006 because they thought a strained MCL was a torn ACL)

3. Saturday is an usually fast healer. Before this season he had missed 2 games in 8 seasons. That’s a phenomenal track record.

You know me, I’m all about the bright side. So when you guys are thinking it’s #1, I’m leaning to 2/3.

One of Three

I’m hoping your right then, for his well being and the teams.

by Ufanforreal on Sep 20, 2008 9:38 PM EDT up reply actions  

one of three was poor phrasing by me

it could be any one, any two or all 3.

3 explanations would have been the right way to put it.
