    The ugly truth and things to watch for today...

    First off, I finally watched last weeks game. Boy there is some koolaid drinkers and propaganda at OBD.

    The ugly:

    1) To start Spikes was awful. He's out of shape and was completely lost. He needs to go.
    2) Kujo. If his left side is his natural side then he really is a bust. He was getting blown up. Sorry but throw in the towel on this guy.
    3) EJ is terrible. Same old same old. No touch.
    4) We are in trouble at linebacker as I didn't see one bright spot.
    5) Our D planning looks like we are going to be giving up some big plays without linebackers who can play in coverage.

    The truth:

    1) Jones has a long way to go but I'd rather have him develop behind Tyrod and not EJ. I was impressed but he had some throws that would be issues in real games.
    2) The oline needs to stay healthy. We have nothing behind the starters.
    3) Powell looked good. Johnathan Williams looked good.

    What to watch for today:

    1) Does Jones play as well today?
    2) Is Reggie Bush worth a roster spot?
    3) Does a Hawthorne or any LB step up?
    4) Please watch Kujo and accept that he is awful.

    Methinks you're putting way too much stock in a game in which starters barely played, if at all. And when they did, the defense shut down the Colts' "starters."

    I think those are fair assessments, although I think KuJo held up 'OK' when he was in.

    you probably can write this same synopsis going back to 2005. Just insert diff players names in

    I think we already have one answer. Bush is staying with Karlos Williams gone.
