Gore won't be facing a stacked box in Indy. I think he's going to surprise a lot of the critics. I also think his receptions will go up.

Did you not see the post above about how bad that o-line is? Weakest link on that team. Luck is the reason they won't / shouldn't stack the box

Aside from the mileage on his body, I would be worried about the concussion he sustained last year as much as anything. It is amazing that this guy is still able to lace them up at his age, considering how he plays the game.

I think we are saying the same thing here, but gore won't benefit in the run game

Not having to play against sea,ari,and stl 6 times a year will help, but also gore owns afc teams..... I can see him putting up 1,300 yards.

You just don't get it. Gore was amazingly successful when he was facing 8 and 9 men in the box his whole career with a s**tty line with us. He now has a QB that forces 5 and 6 DBs on the field. If he was great here with a s**tty line and facing 8 and 9 men in the box, why wouldn't he be successful with a s**tty line facing 5 and 6 men in the box? Do you understand the logic here? Serious question.

Our guys only sucked in pass protection, and it's still our issue today
Colts writers even said it's going to be a problem

I don't know about always. That sounds like homer talk. lol
Still doesn't change the fact that he'll be facing 3 and 4 less defenders in the box. If you don't think that will have any effect on his performance then I don't know how closely you watch the game. As well as playing in the powderpuff AFC east.

I have no idea who the armstead you're referring to is, but if you're talking about Trent Richardson, the reason he couldn't do anything is because he f**king sucks.

Bradshaw, not armstead...Richardson faced a dominat run defense division, but couldn't perform against a powder puff division..hmm. If it's powder puff div...Bradshaw and rich should have performed if their ol could block
Gonna be brutal
