After a day off, the Colts had another practice on Thursday, although once again the rain changed things. Again practicing in pads, the Colts moved their practice from Anderson University to the Colts' facilities in Indianapolis, due to the possibility of rain.
According to George Bremer of the Herald Bulletin, the condition of the fields at Anderson caused some concern to...

It seems like Moise Fockou and Greg Lloyd have already formed a tight bond.
Perhaps it was last season in Philadelphia, especially the final five weeks, where both were on the 53-man roster, but both were also inactive for all of the final four games.
Perhaps it was this summer, both knowing that their shot at contributing was minuscule.
Perhaps is was simply a product of...

Paul Kuharsky noted that Andrew Luck has been quizzing the defensive backs about his progress:
"The day I got him a couple times (with interceptions) at practice, he came up to me and [Antoine Bethea] and said, ‘If I’m tipping off anything presnap or y’all get any read off me during the course of a play, please let me know,’” said the Colts' top cornerback, Jerraud...

It’s really amazing how quickly things can change during a 6-day vacation. While I was away the Colts traded a cornerback (Kevin Thomas) and brought over two fringe linebackers in return. Two waived players (G Ben Ijalana and DT Eric Foster) return to the team on the IR list since they both cleared waivers – no real shock there. And now the team released its first depth chart...

Under the Dungy/Polian/Caldwell regime fans clearly knew what to expect during the preseason. Like clockwork the starters would trot out for their prescribed number of snaps or series, unheralded backups would duke it out for critical roster spots, the Colts would try out an ungodly number of kick and punt returners, at least one important veteran would be hurt and the team would...

It is hard to call a team overrated that went 2-14 last year. This same team which won the "Suck for Luck" sweepstakes has experienced a significant overhaul.
It has a new GM, Ryan Grigson, a new offensive coordinator, Bruce Arians, and a new coach, Chuck Pagano.
Of the 90 players who reported to Colts training camp, 60 are in their first camp.
Twenty-six players are...

Peyton Manning suited up for the Broncos Thursday night, while first overall pick Andrew Luck will see his first game action for the Colts on Sunday against St. Louis. Wide receiver Austin Collie,...

The Indianapolis Colts are learning things on the fly.
Thursday's chapter included moving practice again.
Rain forced coach Chuck Pagano to move the morning walkthrough indoors, the fourth time they've worked inside the gym at Anderson University since training camp opened two weeks ago. This afternoon, Pagano and his players plan to make the 30-minute trip back to the...

Bruce Arians knows quarterbacks. He was Peyton Manning’s first quarterback coach in Indianapolis, groomed Tim Couch in Cleveland before Couch was injured and turned a raw Ben Roethlisberger into a two time Super Bowl winner.
Now Arians has a new challenge in grooming another first round quarterback in Andrew Luck. With the Colts made over roster, the task before Arians will be...

It seems like this offseason has been the longest I've ever experienced. Luckily that's about to change as the new era Colts take on the St. Louis Rams in the first preseason game of 2012. Will Andrew Luck play more than a series? Will the 3-4 defense disintegrate or dominate? Will any position battles become more clear when we see these guys in full contact for the first...

I just need a little Luck Juan..
Austin Collie has been solidified as the #2 WR in Indy. He will play opposite Reggie Wayne in 2-WR/2-TE sets and will play in the slot when they go 3-wide. He has already gained a nice rapport with Andrew Luck and his hands/route running ability will make him a favorite target during the season. A great lat round grab with little risk and huge...
