Written by Brett Mock on .

Andrew Luck takes the field for the first time. A brand new offense and defense do as well. You know what they say about first impressions... GO COLTS!

This is the best kind of preseason game. Saw lots of promise, lots to build on, and most of all, a home victory to start the year off. I couldn't be happier with this outing.

Great close by the CB on 4th down!

Hard to imagine this game having gone much better. O line excluded, everything else has gone brilliantly.

Evans change his name to Ballard?

Stanton looking like a pretty decent back-up QB right now.

Yea, you do, Marshall.  The sooner the better.

Is anyone bobbing their head in approval of how well our running backs are playing despite a pretty weak outing by the offensive line?

Johnson was right with him.

Should we start the parade now, or wait to go through the formality of the season?

I hate listening to the Rams coverage.  Radio is too far behind the action but I'd rather listen to the Colts announcers.

 @MitchIsaacs I know. One leaker, that happens occasionally. Two, that's bad, but it can happen. Three? Good grief, where were the linesmen?

Luck has an EXCELLENT feel for the pocket. He's shifting around very nicely to avoid pressure.

As weird as this sounds, that was a good throwaway. Seriously.

Is Luck throwing too hard or something?

The whole team has been infected by Pierre Garcon

Let Allen have some receptions. Dwayne can catch. 

 

Granted, he won't outrun anyone after the catch, but still....

Luck's still in? Ugh, I don't like that. Sit him, keep him safe. That O-line leaks like a Washington insider.

Hughes? OMG.

Blech... once the receiver noticed he wasn't getting the pass, he started bodying up to the DBs. I don't know about that one.
