Hey, that Luck guy is pretty good. Great to see him shrug off that MONSTER hit he took dead center in the chest. Very proud to see a guy like that wearing my team’s uniform. If that wasn’t enough, the then makes that pass to Reggie on the final drive where he had two Packer defenders draping on him and he double pumps before making the perfect throw to Reggie. Speaking of Reggie…. Wow. Reggie is being Super Reggie this year. That one handed catch was wicked. It couldn’t be happening to a nicer guy. He is one class act. Loved the orange gloves.
R-E-G-G-I-E! R-E-G-G-I-E!
I do want to thank Glazers of Indiana for letting me hang out in their suite and also On-Line Transport for letting me visit their end zone suite. I got to see the first missed Green Bay field goal sail only about five feet to my right into the seats in the next suite over. The best part was that it went right over the heads of two Packer fans went it sailed just wide. Sweet. Until I got to sit in an end zone suite on the field during a game, I had no idea just how loud Lucas Oil Stadium can be. Very awesome. Up in my season ticket area in 640, it doesn’t sound as loud, but now I know it is on the field. Go Colts fans!
The Colts continue to be very active in this early season with roster moves. Added to the active roster at NT was Antonio Dixon. I read that Tevaseu got a little nicked up against the Packers, so with this move, the Colts may expect Tevaseu to miss time or at least plays. The Colts also moved LB Brown and DE Geathers from the practice squad to the active roster. Brown’s addition may mean that Freeney and/or Angerer aren’t ready to come back full time. Interesting note on Geather: He was listed on espn.com NFL transactions as being signed to the Detroit Lions practice squad instead of the Colts. Not sure how that got mis-reported on the four letter network. To make room on the roster, the Colts released CB Justin King. He was on the injury report, so probably couldn’t play anyway. May be just a temporary move until they get some guys healed in other positions, but seems interesting that they’d waive him over new addition Darius Butler. Maybe Butler looks like a better option or King was just too hurt to play so they took a gamble at waiving him, thinking another team wouldn’t sign an injured player. It seems like there’d be something in the Players Union rules about not being able to do that. The Colts lost Mario Addison from the practice squad when he was signed to the Washington Redskins active roster. They also waived RB Alexander from the practice squad. I thought that perhaps the Colts just needed other positions right now due to injuries, but they added another FB to the practice squad in Robert Hughes. Also added to the practice squad were LB D.J. Bryant, CB Isaiah Green. The Colts also re-signed TE Dominque Jones to the practice squad after he was waived from the active roster. So, in less than a week the Colts practice squad turned over six of the eight positions and two were waived from the active roster (WR Kris Adams and TE Jones). The only two on the practice squad since the beginning of the season are now G Hayworth Hicks and TE Kyle Miller. The practice squad is now made up of two TEs, one FB, one WR, one LB and two CBs. Players waived that I wouldn’t be surprised to see again on the practice squad and/or active roster during the season are RB Alvester Alexander, CB Justin King, and LB Mario Addison (if he’s released by the Redskins), and WR Kashif Moore.
Just in as I was writing this, RB Donald Brown is reported to having knee surgery after last week’s game and will be out 2-3 weeks. Apparently, he was hurt on the 2-point conversion play against the Packers. That’s really too bad because it seemed he just started finding his groove. Could be the reason they signed FB Hughes to the practice squad, but makes the release of RB Alexander more interesting.
On to NY to play the drama-queen Jets. Hopefully, the Colts can build on last week’s successes and add to the J-E-T-S’ season of drama.
