    Colvin and Earl and the two biggest cuts, while Kubiak says there is still something coming with Brown. Surprised to see Maddox and Bulman cut, and was hoping they'd also cut Weaver.

    So if Brown gets cut, does that mean we are looking at Green/Slayton in the back?

    Here's hoping the injury bug leaves our RB's alone.

    Interesting. They're sticking with two QBs.

    Colvin is a disappointment.

    Yes, the CBS station (I believe it's cable channel 5) cover the Texans.

    That's what I noticed too. They waived both Brink and Boyd.

    I may be wrong on this but I don't think Boyd has practice squad eligibility, so if someone's going to be signed it will be Brink.

    Anyone else notice Tim Bulman is listed on the roster and depth chart on the official website?

    I'm pretty pissed that Kubiak waived Darius, especially while waiting on a MRI on Brown. Even if the MRI is okay, you're talking about a guy who has NEVR been able to stay on the field. I don't quite understand the thought process of cutting the only back who played last season, I also thought he produced in the limited time he got.

    Also a little suprised that Maddox got cut, I thought he played pretty well this preseason.

    Why did we release Quinn Gray a while back? The only reason I can think of is because Kubes was always planning on only suiting up 2 QB's and was doing Quinn a favor by cutting him sooner rather than later. If we were planning on keepin 3, it would have made more sense to keep him instead of letting him go be the 3rd QB for Indy behind Manning and Sorgi.

    I think Gray was signed to be the back up in the event Sage was traded. Once we decided to keep Sage, Gray was cut, since we were always going to carry only 2 QBs.
