Signs of Trouble with the Indianapolis Colts

The Season is underway and the Indianapolis Colts are left with a shocked look on their face. This shock comes from the fact that the Houston Texans ran over the team and made them an example of the NFL. This was and will for a while be a tough defeat for the team to endure as this showed them that they have flaws.

These flaws were put on display for the entire world to see when they took to the field on Sunday, once these two teams met, it became that the Colts were outmanned and had themselves in a tight situation. This as a result led to the team having a complete lack of performance and many asking the question is Peyton Manning losing his touch?

Looking at the performance that the team put forth inn the way of passing, this seemed to be the case and many fans feel that it is time to look for a new quarterback. There are those that still say that Manning is still as good as he once was and is just in a dry spell. The problem with the dry spell is that they are now looked at as being weak and defenseless.

Manning as with any player in his position is considered to be the leader of the team. There was a serious lack of leadership for the team and this led to there being a complete failure on all regards of the team. Even the unbreakable defense was not able to hold up to the onslaught that the team was put through when they took to the field.

The running game of the Colts are often times looked at as being the second best element of the team, this however led to the team feeling like they were without a quality play that would advance the ball down the field. The Colts were naked and unable to get the ball down the field with the running back.

This is not a complete disaster that the Colts are in the middle of, There is plenty that the team is able to do in order to get their offense as well as their defense back on track and recover from the problems that they suffered in the opening week.

When They take to the field next time, the Colts will need to make sure that they have the issues taken care of and are prepared to take their opponents to task as a result. If these issues are not addressed, then the Colts will be looking for an answer that will give them a spark of life to get back on track.

The Colts are still able to get on track and salvage the remaing part of the season, there will be a lot of work that needs to be done, but in the end it will be all worth while. If these adjustments are not made, then the Colts will see a long season ahead of them and will not be able to recover from this.

Indianapolis Colts and 2010

This is a season that the colts can make the most out of the opportunities that are in front of them in the upcoming season. This as a result will lead the team to have a lot more success in the 2010 season than in the previous two. This may seem like an impossible thing seeing that they made their way to the Super Bowl last season and came so close to winning.

There will not be any changes in the passing department as the team will be looking to make an impact in the 2010 season. Peyton Manning has been trusted with the task of leading the team and there is no reason to mess with perfection as it is. While he is not in his standard form, there is little doubt that Peyton Manning will be able to make the most out of the opportunities that are presented to him. He has the leadership skills needed to take the team all the way to the Super Bowl again.

The running game is the one area that the Colts need to address in camps in the coming weeks, while many will say that there is time to correct this issue, there is also six weeks before the first preseason game. This will be the time that all the work for the past several months will be determined as a success or as a huge failure. If the running game is repaired, then the team will be looking at a great season that will see them heading to the Super Bowl once again this time with a win instead of a close second.

Then there is the issue of the running game that the team needs to make sure that they use all of the tools that they have at their disposal in order to effectively get down the field and as a result score more points than they did in the previous season. This will be an important aspect that will need to be evaluated in the long run for the team and for the overall success of the team. This success will be dependent upon the offense and the defense all working together in order to accomplish the many feats that the Colts will be aiming for in the season.

There is a lot of hope that is still in the team’s fuel tank, there is a lot of a fan that is looking at the Colts as getting back to their winning ways, and become the only team in the NFL since the Dolphins to go undefeated. This may seem like a dream to a few, but the Colts are able to do it better than any other team in the league. 2010-2011 will be an interesting time to be a Colts fan; if you are truly a fan then you will be rewarded with the team doing things that many teams thought impossible. There will be several records shattered by the Colts.
