  • OT: Colts in St. Louis
Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

28-6.

45-0

ya. its pretty close
If the 45-0 game you are referring to is the Pats Titans game Tom Brady only played 1 poss in the 2nd half so i dont see how you can call that running up the score.

Whats the big deal if a team scores late, this isnt 9 and 10 yr old flag football games these are pro players. Both teams get paid, so if you dont like the other team running up the score on you do something about it and stop them.
Certain Colts fans just blindly hate NE no matter what they do. If Tom Brady breaks Manning's record they just ran up the score, if Manning throws 6TDs against the Lions, thats ok.

What do you really expect from the resident fucktard? A troll without a vested interest in either board?
lol @ BB2008

34-9 in the 3rd quarter is running up the score

38-0 isnt

is this?

Point is, they were both running up the score you fucking retard. It's not that the Patriots didn't do it, it's that the colts did the same thing the year peyton went for the record.

Once again, what should I expect from the resident fucktard.

I agree completely. I am a die hard Colts fan and I hate the Patriots, but the complaint about them running up the score is old. Its professional football, everyone of those guys is making a fuck load of money. It may or may not be classless for the Patriots to run up the score but at the same time maybe the other team of professionals should fucking stop them. Thats what they get paid to do and if the Patriots are that much better, so be it.

Couldn't agree more.

Every team in the NFL has at least 10-15 players making significant MILLIONS to WORK as a football player. If people aren't doing their WORK, then changes should be made accordingly. It's tough to feel sorry for any team that shows no heart and gets blown out in dramatic fashion. (Tenn last week, STL this week). The Colts very well could have ran it up more, but they have a little more talent, depth and class than some teams, so they put in reserves whenever they get the opportunity.

The Pats run up the score to a certain extent, and you know what, good for them. Teams remember that shit though. So it will come back to bite them in the ass sooner or later.

People get away from the fact that NFL football isn't just football for entertainment, it's a JOB. The more fans realize that, the more they can understand the situations and why things are done the way they are. (For the most part.)

IND could have ran it up more?...............they threw on 1st and goal with less than 4 to play......I'm sure if they had the chance to score more earlier in the game they would have.

Running up the score doesn't really exist in my head, especially at the professional level. However, the manner in which the Patriots scored right before halftime of their game can be viewed as a bit unsportsmanlike. Ultimately, I don't really care because it was fun seeing the Titans fall apart like Michael Jackson. Anyone who blamed Brady is a fool, he is given the call and his job is to execute the best he can, and he did. Blame the offensive coordinator if anyone.
I agree with everything except the unsportsmanlike comment ... there is no such thing as an unsportsmanlike score in the 1st half. Shit happens (ie Colts-Bucs a few years back) so you've got to pour it on as long as a comeback is possible in the amount of time left in the game, no matter how improbable it might be.

In Montana's early years before they really had a lot of weapons, they were losing to ATL 35-7 at the half.........and came back and won. At the time, I'm sure a lot of people thought SF had as good of a chance of winning that game as TENN did last week. In pro sports, there is no such thing as running it up because they are all on the same playing field. In high school, obviously schools with 4000+ kids are more likely to have a lot more talent than schools with less than 1000.......and that's why it's an issue at that level.

No, I'm pretty sure that happened before Montana became Montana........the point is ATL should have kept the pressure on and taken a chance of 'running up the score' because you never know what can happen.

Like someone else said, IND scored 21 in 5 minutes against TB..........the almighty Tony Dungy with a great defense......let's not pretend that this year's NE defense are world beaters. There is no such thing as running up the score in the NFL.......I'm pretty sure Manning was also throwing late TD passes against NO 5 years or so ago when they won 52-7 or something like that.

Yes he was the coach............of a team that gave up 35 to the TB offense.

There was also an illegal onside kick in that game. The ball has to either hit the ground or a TB player before IND can recover..........nice call refs.

i don't think anyone would argue with you that the colts' defense was sub-par during the dungy era. your colts homer-isms are humorous.
