Saturday Night Football: Colts vs Pats thread

[Big Blitz]

Not liking no Kelly.  At all.

 

 

 

 

I have zero read on this game.  But yea I'm rooting for the Colts.  

 

 

No Harris 

[YoloinOhio]

Damien Harris being out is pretty big 

[EmotionallyUnstable]

I thought about taking a flier on Rhamondre Stevenson in fantasy as RB3 but rolling with a Miles Gaskins instead (PPR league

I’m playing Stevenson but only because Harris is hurt. I worry he will fumble early and never see the field again.

I am so limited at RB in that league but have made playoffs on my WRs/TE (Hill, Diggs, K.Allen, Kittle)

[Slippery Rubber Mats]

I'm really excited about this game but my god the fellating of Mac Jones we're about to witness. I don't know if I can take much of it. I hope he fails quickly.

I'm still pretty surprised the Colts didn't move Marlon Mack at the deadline. Seemed to be suitors. 

 

I have Stevenson from the Pats starting on both my fantasy teams. He's a tough runner.

I lost CMC and now Mitchell.

 

Have Wilson and Penny now in round 1

 

I'm very tempted to go Bolden over one of them and the fact I'm not sure who is telling me to hold off 

 

If I had to pick one to sit it would be Penny due to lack of ppr

Hate to say it...but it's fair from over, too.

 

He likely takes RoY. I would vote for Ja'Marr Chase, myself. QBs fair better for awards typically and Jones has "managed" the Patsies to the division lead (thus far)

Hey, Mac & Cheese had a 100% completion rate in the first half of the Bills game. Pretty impressive...

(psst... yes, while technically true, that is a joke. he threw exactly one pass in the entire first half of that game.)

Rookie/young QBs get "figured out" in that other teams start to sell out for what you do well. The trick for taking the next step is showing them that you do other things well too. Some QBs can, some can't.

 

I hope Mac Jones fails in that step. He definitely got some respect. The beginning of this game is going to be awful though. I hope he throws many terrible interceptions

[Success]

There is actually no way whatsoever that Jones lives up to his hype so far.

 

He has played competent football. And it's some sort of consensus that he'll be as good or better than Brady.

 

Lots of pressure on that rook.  Trying to replace the GOAT, and already being hyped to the moon.  My own prediction is that we'll end up seeing more of a Leaf-type trajectory than Brady.

 

But I wish him well.

 

[Big Blitz]

Mac Jones rookie season has spared us about 3 to 5 years of the Patriots trying to find a really good QB.

 

Sorry I'm just not remotely worried about Chad Pennington 2.0

[Bob in STL]

Jones is in a great situation.  BB surrounding him with a very good offensive line, a solid run game, a great defense, strong ST, and game planning that is top notch.  
 

The key is to get a lead and take away the Pats* run game. The Bills didn’t do either one despite being home in bad weather. I hope the Colts get the lead early, shut down the run, and force Jones to be a QB.

Jones really is something and will be a great QB there. If he keeps it up like that.

[Steptide]

If the Patriots win tonight, the media is gonna drool all over them like they've already won the superbowl this year 

[thenorthremembers]

Lets go Indi.   More excited for this game than I am Bills vs. Panthers tomorrow.  Go get em Colts!

[loveorhatembillsfan4life]

I really want the Colts to win now with this love fest going on..

[Joe Ferguson]

Look for the flags going against the Colts.

[Haslett_Stomp]

Colts getting no respect in pregame analysis.  Hope they win big.
