Not one of those articles states that the were going to pull their starters, unless of course you've invented a new English language. There's a lot of maybe and what-if. I told you find to me a statement from the Colts in which they concretely stated we're going to pull our starters. You can't because they never made such a proclamation. For someone who likes to use the word facts a lot you sure don't grasp the gravity of what one is.
To the press?

Of course not. Are you that daft? Do you really want to sit there and tell me NFL teams reveal their every projected move to the press? Seriously?

You must enjoy looking ignorant. It takes a certain kind of it to ignore posters on every side of you kicking your *** and pretending to be too dumb to get it.

Learn to read. Where did I say the word "vague."

I said you are "uninformed," and clearly you are. You have made sure there is no doubt about that at all.

Fact is it was being talked about ahead of time and yes Caldwell was not going to come out before the game and tell the press but during the week as players get ready for the game yes they damn well knew as backups where seeing more snaps during the week as they got ready for the jets game.

Colt players knew it and painter saw more snaps leading up to the Jets game. Did the Colts players know at what point they would come out? chances no but they knew they would not likely play the entire game. This was discussed ahead of time right after the Jags game.

They played to win for a half and the organization decided to pull the starters afterwards. It's pretty clear what happened, if you're paying attention. If they weren't trying to win the game, the starters would've played like a series or two.

I never implied that you used the word "vague". If you knew how to read, you'd see that another article posted by someone else had that word in it. :lmao:

The player knew it they had clinched everything and the talk heading into the Jets game was the fact that getting through the season healthy was the most important thing. The starter did go in and play well no one said they were trying to throw the game and players knew at any point they could get pulled from the game how would they know it? because it has been talked about the week before.

We've won the East two out of the last three years, so Jimmy is hardly going out on a limb.

I don't even think you understand what is being argued. What is being argued is whether or not the Colts said they were going pull their starters prior to the game. They never concretely stated that they would do this. Neither you or Hostile can seem to understand that. Maybes, perhaps-es and what-ifs are not "we're going to pull our starters".

The problem here Dooms is this is about football and this guy doesn't know anything about the game. Beyond hopeless to tell him how the NFL teams do not reveal stuff to the press. We could show him dozens of articles after the fact where Irsay, Pollian, Caldwell, and Colts players discussed it. Because the Colts didn't tell the press they were going to do it, he won't grasp the significance.

It's the same mentality of someone who tells you that Babe Ruth never hit 50 home runs in one season. You can show him source upon source that show he hit 60 and was over 50 several times. In the end, 60 is not 50 so Ruth never did it. In his infantile mind he is right and smart.

In reality nothing could be further from the truth.

Oh look, what I just predicted in my last post is exactly the stance he now takes.

Witness ignorance in action folks. That is what it looks like.

Believe it or not, there are three other Divisions and 12 more teams in the Conference. He isn't exactly at the base of the tree looking up either.

You mean like you having no concept of the Cowboys defense having an effect on the Cowboys ability to get off the field on 3rd down or allowing a high YPA?

I just farted. It was smarter than anything you have said in this thread. Especially the last half dozen spin control posts.

Correct, we're one of several teams with Super Bowl caliber talent, but we've known that for several years now. Had Jimmy predicted an NFC title for the Boys this year, that would have been slightly more newsworthy. Otherwise, he's not telling us anything we didn't already know.

I figured there was a need to bring it back to something you can understand. Football is clearly over your head.

Haven't you read, Jimmy is feeding the hype that will kill this team.

Moronic conjecture, but it's out there.

Coming from the guy who doesn't understand the significance 3rd down efficiency and YPA for a defense and thinks the current incarnation of the Cowboys is even in a roundabout way comparable to those of the 90s (maybe the late 90s :lmao:).

Please.
