Its spelt Dungy, and to make a long explanation short, the perfect scenario would be the O line takes the flied and runs down flied and scores, then the D goes on stops the oponate after 3 downs and then it starts over.

As I said before the Colts D isn’t good enough to stop the run with first tackles if the did there wouldn’t have been 200 yards against them and the Jags would have had far less first downs

  I don’t know if the coaching staff is the problem. I think the general manager is lazy and does not look ahead to what problems might come up. If he did you would see players that can’t hack it being cut and some one at work all the time looking into the free agents that have abilities to fill our critical spots. New England’s front office is at work keeping it rotating all the time. Jerry Jones, at it all the time. Peyton Manning is the best Q.B in the league and he is at a prime time and he needs some one covering his a— —.

  A little righteous defense of the team we support. I didn’t mean any harm. Everyone is down on some one. I love the colts and always support them. We do have a great team and I know they will come back and finish at the top. Sorry. Thats the defense we need and look at all the positive.

  And by the way the key players in the cowboys lineup this year have been hand picked by Jerry Jones.

I don’t mean they are better or even compatible. I was just looking at a place on NFL.com and it showed all this rotating and cutting of players (at New England) and activity to stay under the cap that looked to me like somebody was working to keep the players on the field backed up. I don’t like Jerry Jones one bit but he has a fire that will let him stop at nothing to be a Super Bowl champ. (granted some of the players he is signing have questionable character, but he has put a team together that looks like we might see them there) Everyone was down on Dungy and I couldn’t understand that. Some one was even talking “fire Peyton” I guess I was just wanting someone to have a reason to defend the team that we know is great.. I looked for the same info about colts head office activity and could not find it . But don’t I kinda make you feel better when you look at the positive.

Oh, and in New England it won’t matter what they do, they have some bad karma going on.

The problem sassyblue seems to have is that other teams are always “doing something”. Its a problem that affects fans as well as voters. They always want to see “a solution” and they want to see it now, even though the system may not be the problem just the circumstances.

I understand that there are a few of you, probably not many, who pay good many for season tickets to Colts games. You have a right to be upset if the product on the field is not worth the investment, but as in just about every arena of life, haste makes waste and the “decisive solution” may not be taking into account the totality of the situation. Let’s think about the context here and we can see that yes, we’ve had rush defense problems before, but they have been repairable before, so there is no reason to believe that the current debacle will not be resolved. This was just Week 3. We have 13 games to play, and a bye to get ready for it and get healthy.

If you believe that a personnel change is out there waiting to be made, throw it out there. But if Bill Polian hasn’t made a move, you can be assured there is a reason – there isn’t a move to make.

I want to see a change because of a QB like Peyton. After 10 years of being the Colts does he deserve to get the crap beat out of him. This should be his time to get to relax in the pocket and show his amazing talents. We shouldn’t expect him to shoulder the team. If he, God forbid, got hurt where would we be?

So the offense is not the biggest problem. We need to put the points on the board and we could if P had more time to find the 3 great WR. I mean if we have 3 great receivers out there being covered and a ok RB that needs coverage and now Dallas is back he needs to be watched, then why is Peyton getting rushed so much? I have a theory, everyone out there knows he is our weapon and if they massacre him we are weak. Dallas Cowboys had a franchise in the early 90’s and when they let the o line go down they lost him to concussions and it has taken them 10 years to recover. But they had 3 SB rings. 92 93 95

I am not trying to be difficult. I just hate to see Peyton in this situation, and I cringe when I see him under pressure. I am frustrated. By the way did anyone see the Chargers last night? Seems like they have found there legs.

If you look at the game film from this weekend, you’ll notice that most of Peytons really bad throws were done when he had plenty of time and wasn’t under pressure. On the REALLY BAD pick in the End zone, Peyton had plenty of time, and was able to step up into his throw and still threw it 3-4 yards short. I understand that’s not an easy throw to make but if you can’t make it don’t throw it into triple coverage. It seems to me that Peyton is slipping into some of his old bad habits of trying to win the games himself. He needs to play more within himself and the constructs of the offense. Rely more on the running game even if it looks like the other team is stacking against it. The problem with this whole “Peyton” calls or changes the play based on what the defense shows him is that the other teams all know this and can then help dictate what plays you run by showing you a certain defense. Even if that’s not the actual defense you are going to play. Teams seem to undertand this year that Peyton is rusty and feeling flustered and so they are showing him defenses tempting him to throw. Then actually playing a defense designed to disrupt a passing play.
