Some Yay's and No's!!

This game will be exciting versus the Raiders with our Run and Run D is coming off a good ( shocker) game. With Addai and Eldridge returning hopefully we can rejuvenate our running game and our pass blocking gives Peyton more time to throw deeper down the field since Collie went to IR ( sadly, wish him luck). Hopefully our D bring our A+ game ( shoutout to Fili Moala)

If Addai can play

I say the Colts need to go with a 2 back look. Get rid of the extra TE to block and run a screen look out of the backfield. You can use Addai to block and Brown to catch/run. This will allow for the extra blocker where we really need it and let the guys who catch the ball focus on that…

New formations aren't really the Colts forte

Wouldn’t be a bad idea, the fact of the matter maybe they plan to ease Addai back in. The natural compensation to Collie loss would be to keep Brown/Addai in the back field and one in the slot. The Colts might look at that as putting both running backs at risk by placing them on the field together. But, with two pass catching backs creating mismatches would be key to a victory.

It's actually

Not really a new formation for them….. they’ve run it several times..

Line up Joe Slot left.

That way as long as he leads with left shoulder it doesn’t put the right shoulder in harms way..
(This is a predicated by the fact that he injured his right shoulder, my memory is not like it used to be so I dont remember which one got hurt. if it was his left shoulder then line him up on the right side).

wouldn't you want his hurt shoulder on the outside, toward the sidelines and CBs?

rather than toward the interior, bigger bodies? Regardless, Joe shouldn’t go till he’s ready.

Looks pretty good

Granted, all the players who we were waiting on to return are now on IR (give or take Joseph Addai and Clint Session). I think the addition of addai will help our offense move the ball….
…but I still wish that I could take that concussion instead of Collie.
