Just get the score here please pickem... Only team in the NFL to do this, and also, 10 straight games trailing at the half, going back to last year. I'm not sure if even the Suck for Luck team ever pulled that off. It's crazy. I keep waiting for that week where everything clicks in the first half, just because every team seemingly has a game like that at some point, but it never happens with this group. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Man, I hate when a post game show is done by people who works for the Colts. Greg Rakestraw and two former players on on the show. They can't say what they really think or just to close to see the problems of this team.

Steubenhoosier Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Colts played well enough to win. Ran at a 4.7 ypc clip. Ehlinger gave them a lift. Defense played well until the end. The loss of points as a result of the Taylor fumble was a huge event in this game. Would have won the game had he not lost the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-BONE Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Ineptitude personified: The Colts offense has been held to one touchdown or fewer in four games this season.

TheWatShot Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Colts have also started on offense in all but one game this year. Must really suck at the coin toss or they keep electing to receive for some reason. The offense's first possession in all but one game has ended with either a three and out or a turnover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Some teams makes offense look easy but others is like pulling teeth. I guess us Colts fans were spoiled with Manning as QB where some years you wonder how any team will stop our offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoB2011 Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Pierce may be our WR1 next year. I like Pittman a lot, but he's been bad in crunch time two weeks in a row. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pittman, Pierce, Campbell, Woods, Granson, Hines, JT is a more than solid group, imo. Now with Ehlinger, I think this group can really grow. Tough start this week for SE @NE, but we will see.

Is it a tough start? The Bears and Justin Fields went in there and blew them out - NE isn't that good. I liked what I saw from Sam yesterday, but these next couple road games are two of the more winnable games we have left. If Sam wants to be the guy long-term he needs to win these types of games; granted, he played good enough to win yesterday and his best two skill players let him down big-time when it mattered (JT and Pittman). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belicheat is the best defensive coach in the history of the game. Quite the challenge. Establishing a consistent run will be necessary. Two GL calls I did not like, 1st and Goal QB sweep and 3rd and goal with no mo just straight hand the ball to JT. But other than that, JTs fumble and that drop... yuck. I do think it's fairly evident Sam is better than Ryan, or at least more effective for our offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess, but they're pretty average this year. If Sam can't win a road game against a pretty average defense and below average offense, then he's probably not the guy. I agree on those play calls - but Frank makes a lot of head scratching play calls IMO. I'm not sure if he realizes that the QB sneak is a legal play, but he should try it out sometime when we need a half a yard. I never really thought Ryan was the problem as much as the line, but I definitely agree that with as bad as our line is Sam seems like he is a better fit probably after one game. Unrelated to the rest of the post, but my personal favorite play of the game was the deep ball to Alec. Was a very good throw, but Pierce did a great job of snagging that ball with his hands; if he lets it get into his body I think the defender had a pretty good shot at breaking it up.

I think NE is well above average defensively, and defending Chicago is a little different than defending most teams with their run game and Field's legs, but NE didn't play well that night. NE is a 6pt favorite currently and they have won 3 of 4 and just beat a 5-2 Jets team on the road. I agree these games, and the one yesterday are definitely ones we need to get, just a tall task going into Foxboro and getting a W. Pierce's hands are evident. The grab on the sideline, on the out route... insane catch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 My question for the Colts fan this morning. Does thought of being sellers enter the mind before trade deadline? I know Colts can still win division and that's probably why they won't sell....but they are light years behind Bills, Chiefs shoot even Dolphins in the talent department. So I ask do you ship your guys this week for picks? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're middle of the pack in yards and in points allowed The only above .500 team they've beaten in that 3 out of 4 is the Jets, who I think most agree still have a lot to prove that they're legit contenders.

You have a GM and coach trying to hang on to their jobs, so they're unlikely to do anything to hurt results on the field IMO. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why didn't mind the Bears moving Quinn and won't mind if they move anyone else today. Bears need a ton of talent to go along with an unprecedented amount of $ to spend next year https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cap/2023/ Problem is the Colts (Ballard/Reich) still think their close. I don't know.... I like the Colts. Always have but they need to take a hard look in the mirror today and realize they might be closer to the Bears then they think...talent wise.

Struggled defending Lamar, but that is about it. To just act like going to Foxboro in your 2nd start ever vs. Belicheat is somehow simple is a very confusing argument, but whatever. The jets were 5-2 and NE held them to 17 on the road. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
