Apparently I live on another planet because I never understood all of the hype behind Mike Hart. He had a good college career but the second he was drafted everyone in Colts nation started flipping their lids about how he is going to be the greatest thing since Edge was here. He looked great in pre-season, but does that really show how good he will play in the real-season? It’s still up in the air. He looked promising against the Ravens, and just when things were looking good, he blows his knee out.

Now, I for one am hesitant on annointing a guy who is already starting to have physical problems on one of the most injury prone teams in the league. Yeah his knee was a freak accident, so was Edge’s and Dom’s and they seemed to recover pretty well, albeit a 1+ years later. Unless his name is Ronnie Brown (because he’s the only person I’ve ever seen recover from an ACL tear that fast), the Colts seriously need to consider drafting a better running back.

He was fantastic during the preseason and during his brief playing time in baltimore, he really looked like he was coming on. I think he, along with another back, will help boost our dreadful running game. I pulling for you HArt

With Lance Ball and Chad Simpson competing for that roster spot he has to recover. I think he has starter potential. Talk about a guy who doesn’t dance in the backfield. His 2 yard run on third down against the Ravens was exactly what we needed down the stretch. He will be our third down back next year and may be our best running back.

This is a great guy who I believe can be huge for this team in the future.
