Tolzien was obviously bad enough for the Colts to see what Jake Brisket can do.
They might need to get someone to replace Vinatieri as well.

They still bottled Gurley up too.
19 carries 40 yards. ELITE.
What I really like about Rodgers is his ability to know when he has a free play (via offsides) and then just lob the ball out as far as he can to try and get something more.
There really isn't a better QB to watch go about it than Rodgers.
One commentator just suggested that Dan Bailey might be the best kicker in the league.
He should be fired for blasphemy.
Fears that Robinson has torn his ACL.
He's in contract year too, so may well end up staying with the Jags but for less money than he'd hope.
Very lucky win for the Packers. They were septic.
That catch from Beasley was a thing of beauty.
Eli, meanwhile, looked trash behind a line that's also really, really bad. That offence is 100% garbage without OBJ.
David Johnson is heading to IR and missing at least 8 weeks, seemingly.
for not having any shares in him in fantasy.
Glad I didn't draft him #1 overall in any leagues (that matter). Hopefully someone mad will drop him & I'll be able to pick him up.]
Saints game in 10mins
EDIT: This MNF theme song is as awful as all the Carrie Underwood ones.
Decent first drive. Shame it didn't get to the endzone, but the backs all started well, and the line looked alright, aside from a few penalties. Now to hope the defence isn't as bad as usual...
That's a typical Saints DEF penalty from Marcus Williams twatting Diggs about five yards out of boundsThat one on the other rookie Anzalone (and his beautiful hair) was bullshit though. Overall a pretty encouraging start, assuming we can avoid the penalties. A whole new set of linebackers looks to have improved the run defence, although we might still be there for the taking through the air.
If Anzalone grows a moustache he's the blonde Yanni.
I hope they don't keep showing this fuckboy with the purple suit & viking horns every time they want a crowd shot.
Offence hasn't been up to much so far really, which is concerning. Maybe trying to spread it around too much, and a bit too run heavy.
EDIT: Sweet, we could be without both our starting tackles inside the first half of our season opener. Just call us the Ravens.
Good to see Will Lutz, former Justin Tucker protégé, doing well.
Fingers crossed he ends up as good as Tucker. No doubt if he does we'll have cut him beforehand though.
That was a fucking brilliant drive by Bradford.
That was awful
Three plays to go 74 yards & it was all way too easy. At least I have Diggs & Bradford in a fantasy league, I guess.
Adam Thielen justifying why I kept drafting him
Still can't spell his name though
I'm not enjoying having to see adverts for the same stamps & recruitment sites that advertise on a load of fantasy podcasts.
Fixed.
Diggs
Can we stop running Alvin Kamara up the middle already?
Didn't realise we'd re-signed Adam Bighill
How is Drew Brees still a thing in fantasy?
Our playcalling has been shit. Give up on trying to showcase Alvin Kamara & just start trying to pass the ball more than two yards downfield.
That punt from Morstead
Well, I think we can officially say our pass defence is still utterly shit
Thielen running wild here.
How did he hold onto that?
Not entirely sure how he held onto his head, nevermind the ball.
Great work from our defence as two guys run into each other to stop either one of them catching a simple pick.
That's picked if Klein doesn't get involved.
Diggs is brilliant.
He is, but I think it's helped by us being bad still. Last team he shredded was Green Bay, and they were also a shitty pass defence last season.
Toyota are using John Cena's entrance music to advertise the Camry
I missed that hurdle on Sunday, it's brilliant.
Kicker did duck but that's some leap. Didn't even have to kick anyone in the face.
Absolutely roasting them.
Who would have thought that the Saints would have more success throwing the ball than trying to run up the middle?
You mean to tell me that Drew Brees is good at throwing the ball?
Yeah, but only if he's throwing to a running back.
We need to spend all our top three round draft picks on the secondary & O-Line over the next 2-3 years. Well, except maybe one on a QB next year...
We've given up seven 20+ yard passing plays todayI think they've probably all been at De'Vante Harris too.
I reckon that I might be able to catch a ball going against De'Vante Harris.
Will Lutz & Thomas Morstead the only ones who are going to come out of this game looking good for the Saints
Hey Dan, I'll race you for that number one draft pick next season.
Even Treadwell is getting a catch against Harris.
Even LaQuon Treadwell is catching against Harris now
EDIT: Snap.
Brady next week? If Harris is still on the team then it's going to be one almighty fisting.
Before the game I had us 9-7 for the season. Now? 6-10 probably.
Well that Denver result needn't have been quite so hairy as that. Not comfortable with the number of big plays we gave up over the top but there was some stuff I liked about the defence. In the first half Gotsis looked quite lively and I thought Shaq Barrett did well to make the most of the attention the Chargers were paying Miller on the other side. Siemian's footwork was a bit jumpy so while that led to some decent rushes he was desperate to get out of the pocket even when there didn't look to be a huge amount of pressure sometimes.
Quite liked what I heard of Beth Mowins in the condensed game as well.
She was good, Rex Ryan was pointless.
There's a woman commentator on MNF? Fuck that.
Was that who it was? Didn't even recognise the voice. He got about three sentences in during the condensed version.
I only watched the first quarter but yeah, he barely spoke.Originally Posted by Ian
I only knew it was him because they spoke a bit in the booth pre-match.
She was good, much better than Troy Aikman and most of the other plebs.
She was genuinely good and as Mahow says, far better than some of the mainstays.
