When I was a kid, I read Joe Namath's biography. When he was in high school, the team punter was injured. The head coach at Beaver Falls High School told Joe that he would have to punt for the team for the upcoming game. Namath told him, "Don't worry, coach, our offense will be so good that we won't have to punt" ...... just as Namath asserted, they didn't have to punt, and Beaver Falls High won the game going away.

And of course, there was the 2003 divisional playoff game in which NEITHER TEAM had to punt in the Colts' 38-31 victory over the Chiefs in Kansas City.


I'm not necessarily asserting that the Colts won't have to punt at all against the Raiders, but if the offense can play well enough to minimize the punting, then the loss of our long-snapper will be at least somewhat minimized.

Field goals AND extra points, made a difference with the Cards

Yes, they do. And it could potentially be a much bigger difference if the Colts have to punt a lot.

Kyle Nelson was signed in case they need him Sunday according to the Star.

Is he the finest one armed long snapper from the U of Wallamaloo, New South Wales Austrialia?

It’ll be interesting to see how the Supreme Court rules regarding the federal mandate, but the precedent has already been set and there are already people that have given up their jobs because they refused to be coerced into compliance.

I don’t believe the NFLPA is exceptional within this context. Perhaps only one or two Darius Leonards come in a generation but every year there is a new crop of kids with dreams of generational wealth who will be more than happy to comply with the owners contractual demands.

Actually polio is on the rise. In 2020 200 cases of polio and 600 vaccine derived cases in the world.

Losing Rhodes at this juncture to COVID may be a blessing in disguise. Sure it may hurt us against Oakland but it assures he will be off COVID protocol through out the playoffs. His is another position that we don't keep a back up and can be hard to find if he went down in the playoffs. Thing keep breaking our way even when our guys get COVID. This is the year. Puck is right.

What's confusing? You literally said that, "No one has had polio or small pox in decades", and now you clap back because he points out that polio is still around? 200 is more than no one in decades, and if it's around, it's not been eradicated.

That said, folks, get your gd shots. I've been getting crushed since Christmas night with this Omicron fucker, which is supposed to have less serious symptoms than Delta or Alpha, and I've had my shots. It's the literal worst. It might be "just a cold" for some, but for plenty of others, it's no joke.

Protect yourselves, Freaks.
