“Coltzilla Dead” Pronouncements Premature
May 30th
It has come to our attention that one of our colleagues in the Colts blogosphere has taken shots at Coltzilla regarding a lack of steady content recently. In fact, in the latest comment, it was suggested that Coltzilla is “dead.” As the site’s founder and editor I think it is worthwhile to address any of our readers’ concerns about the current and future health of Coltzilla.
Our readers should know that Coltzilla upholds a standard of reporting and analysis that we hope best serves Colts fans. We do not engage in long-winded or repetitive rants regarding rather mundane occurrences in the Colts front office, draft strategies, private practices, or minor surgeries to players. More >

Disagreements Continue Regarding Donald Brown
Nov 18th
No comments
Scott Bolander of Blue Sunday blog, writer of What Peyton Manning is Doing (and how to beat him), adds his perspective to the ongoing debate regarding Donald Brown’s progress in his second year with the Colts. Scott responds to commentary in last week’s Check it to Pancakes podcast discussing Brown’s performance. He believes that the podcast unfairly judges Brown, and suggests that one legitimate reason for Brown’s slow start in his starting role has to do with a lingering hamstring injury. For more on Scott’s opinion, visit the Donald Brown’s progress link above.
