Quote:The Colts do have some young key pieces, especially on the D line that have great potential. David Parry and Henry Anderson (still working back from tearing his ACL last year). They are mainly run stuffing lineman, though. The biggest problem with the Colts defense IMO is they have 0 pass rush. None. Zilch. Plus, the Colts ILB are HORRENDOUS. Really, really bad. Heck, the Colts just cut one of their starting LBs LOL. If that doesn't tell you how bad that position is, nothing will. Plus, Kelly that they drafted this year to be starting C has been really solid, he'll be a great piece for us going forward.

 
Those guys are decent run stuffers, but I don't know if I would classify either as a dominant or stud NT that a 3-4 needs to thrive.  I think they are decent spot starters in a 3-4 DL or rotational guys.  I thought you had your chance in the 2015 draft to get either the kid from Texas who wound up with New England, or Freeman, who went to Chicago.  I also think safety is a problem for you guys, though you drafted a guy in the 2nd this year.  But you are right in that LBs, especially the pass rushers, are a problem for you guys-a HUGE problem for a 3-4 team.

And I've been on this train for a while now and I still believe it, I don't think Grigson is great or even good really, but I think the main problem is Pagano. He's just awful at getting his team prepared. Luck flourishes in the no huddle, yet Pagano demands that they got at a slower pace so we can substitute personnel in and out.... Uh, isn't that the point of no huddle? To keep the pace and not allow either team to substitute. Literally every game the Colts start so incredibly slow due to being unprepared/badly coached. Then 3rd/4th quarter comes around, we're down 20+ and we go no huddle and we start moving the ball and putting points on the board. Strange. Pagano isn't a good coach and he hasn't been for a while.

 
It certainly played out that way last week.  I can see both sides to this argument.

 

On the one hand, the strength of the Colts offense are the skill players, especially in the passing game with Luck.  Naturally one would be inclined to play to those strengths.  But with the idea of protecting and preserving Luck being a top priority, and trying to do so with an inexperienced and possibly marginally talented right side of the OL (and a questionable LT to boot), I can understand trying to limit the exposure to hits Luck would take.

 

Ultimately, I think a coach can only coach a team so far.  Ultimately, he needs talent.  Without pass rushers and OLs, Pagano will continue to struggle looking like a competent coach.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
