Austin Collie

As a Colts fan, this game really disappointed me. But hey, the New Orleans Saints wanted it more. They needed this. After all New Orleans has gone through for the past few years with Hurricane Katrina and all that. Along with that, the Saints were never a good football team. The NFC Championship was the farthest they’ve ever gone before the season started. And they only made the NFC Championship once in their life. The Saints were undervalued. With losing to teams like the Buccaneers with their starters, the Saints were not favorites entering the playoffs. They proved everyone wrong. And then, the heroics of Tracy Porter came in the NFC Championship game. After that pick, it was over. It happened last night in the Super Bowl, against a high-powered Colts’ team. The first quarter [...] Continue reading →
Oh man, oh man, what a game this was! Heading into this game were the underdog New York Jets, who looked to surprise the Colts again like they did 40 years ago when Joe Namath and the Jets shocked the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III. It looked like from the first half. In the first quarter, both teams were punished by the strong defenses. There were punts flying left and right. This also included a field goal miss by Jay Feely, who is among the many kickers who have been struggling this postseason. The first score came when the Colts failed to deliver a touchdown in the red zone. That meant they had to settle for a field goal. Matt Stover put it up right, and in. 3-0. But everything changed after that. Here came Mark Sanchez, with a powerful run fake and pump fake to trick Dwight [...] Continue reading →
The Colts will be facing, well, a not so tough team. I am hoping this may be the easiest game of the season as the Indy will travel to St. Louis to play the Rams. The Colts have been playing well against NFC West opponents, outscoring them 65-27. Trust me, it’s a real easy win here. The Colts are also playing a real bad defense of St. Louis. If you have seen my recent power rankings to the sidebar of my blog at dhanisports.wordpress.com, you’ll see that the Rams are at 29. They aren’t all that bad. The Colts are going to have to get tough on the run, though, as Steven Jackson is literally just a monster, running for 500 yards already as he is pretty much the Rams’ offense. But I think the Colts can stop them. But back to my point of the Rams’ [...] Continue reading →
The Indianapolis Colts have showed signs of hope and some major improvement after Sunday's 14-12 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Colts defense played strong in the victory. Peyton Manning had a solid performance, going 28-of-38 for 301 passing yards with one touchdown and one interception. Manning played strong and was showing [...] Continue reading →
ESPN.com Insider reports that Colts draft pick Austin Collie is ahead to start at the slot position for the team. Collie and Pierre Garcon have fighting all off-season for the spot but during one drill, Collie caught six footballs while Garcon got only a slim two. Coach Jim Caldwell says Collie will be spending most of his time in the slot while Anthony Gonzalez is the wide right option which leaves Reggie Wayne at the wide left. More breaking news to come, this is the just the start of them. [...] Continue reading →
In the first round of the NFL Draft, the Colts were up at the 27th pick. Many people believed a wide receiver or a defensive tackle in the making for that pick on Indy. The experts were proven wrong as Indianapolis drafted running back Donald Brown, who was a complete start a Conneticutt. As a receiver wasn't found for the Colts, they eventually decided picking one in the fourth round as Indy picked Austin Collie from BYU. At 6'2" and pushing 210 pounds, Collie looked to be a dominant starter at the slot position, as he may be competing against Pierre Garcon, Roy Hall, and now even Taj Smith maybe. But let's save that for my next article. Collie looked like a dangerous player with his size and his ability. Ability do what? He hasn't shown anything! Oh yes he has. Take a look [...] Continue reading →
