nah, it was a bad call on the horse collar but that happens. i don't think the play on the interception was that bad. could've been called either way.

You mean the horse collar that was clearly a horse collar and almost turned Gerhart into an amputee?

Who cares about what happened last week. The Colts have a legitimate gripe based on a few of those calls

Eagles' D hasn't exactly been instilling confidence.

This RB duo is amazing. But I have ZERO confidence in this defense against Luck in this situation.
not sure about beast. he looks unstoppable but needs to be used approrpriatelyOk just checking. From where I sit, Sproles looks like an absolute beast.It's just youIs it just me or does Sproles look better than McCoy

I didn't think the Boykin no call was all that big either. Hilton looked like he was pushing off and lost his own balance but there was definately enough contact to draw a flag in today's NFL.
The horsecollar was crap but was hardly a game killer

Article15:
Horse-Collar Tackle.
No player shallgrab the inside collar of the back or the side of the shoulder pads or jersey
pads or jersey, and pull the runnertoward the ground.
This does not apply to a runner who is in the tackle box or to a
quarterback who is in the pocket.
Note: It is not necessary for a for a player to pull the runner completely to the ground in order for the act to be illegal. If his knees are buckled by the action, it is a foul, even if the runner is not pulled completely to the ground. Penalty: For a Horse-Collar Tackle: Loss of 15 yards and an automatic first down.

I'll never forget where I was when Trent Richardson rushed for 6 yards from scrimmage.

Sproles is a lightning rod. He's the most dynamic player on the team. There I said it......

Colts fans need to start getting pissed, I think.
That's what I thought last week and was over-ruled. It does NOT have to be inside the actual collar

Defense gave them a chance. Here is where Foles has to be the man. On the road, not your best day... can you lead the team downfield and win?
