Just an observation, but there's a lot of gay cheering in the Colts locker room.

Pierce had 61 too many.

Pierce had 61 too many.

Yeah man, every game next year there needs to be 2-3 just straight go patterns to him and if he doesn't show he can get behind the D for AR 50 yard in air passes and catch them, just tell that dude good bye at the end of next year. Right now he is just not getting it done and has no impact on the game.

Had 2 targets. Minshew needs to throw him the ball and needs to throw deep more. Or just have him run shorter routes. Seems like that’s the only time he throws to him. But I think it’s more the QB than him.

Pierce and the whole offense needs to be getting targets deeper than they currently are. Making a defense have to protect a larger area, puts more strain on them. If they are struggling to make sideline passes, and then only passing 15 yards deep, there is very little space to actually be able to get open and subsequently there is little room to run the ball. Both Pierce and Pittman are good on deep balls, if not making the reception they have drawn a few pass interference penalties.

Pierce doesn't provide the same route running abilities of Pittman on shorter routes though, he just isn't as agile.

Minshew doesn’t throw deep. Pierce is the fifth option when he runs deep routes behind the TE and RBs. He just doesn’t have the arm for it and Pierce if the fastest receiver on the team right now so they default him as the deep threat. Pierce was wide open on his two targets and the passes weren’t even close. Defenses are kinda catching on though because they played 7-8 in the box last game and Pierce was targeted just twice. If teams are going to play 8 in the box you have to make them pay deep. But Minshew was out there running early leaving the pocket, he has little feel for pocket pressure.

Colts rookie cornerback Jaylon Jones this season:

10 receptions allowed on 20 targets for just 86 yards in 184 coverage snaps.

Jones and Marlon Humphrey are the only two cornerbacks in the NFL with over 150 coverage snaps to allow fewer than 100 yards receiving

Jones is a 7th round pick. That’s impressive. There is a 11% chance a 7th round DB becomes a starter.

He and Brents appear to be good finds. 2 for 4 on DB picks is pretty solid. Scott could still become a good player as well. Looks like Rush is doing well elsewhere as well, unfortunately for the Steelers.

They have Rush playing safety don't they? Looks like Darrel Baker had a bounce back game with Tony Brown going down. A 74 grade from pff. Of course with the dline doing so well it makes their job a lot easier.

The article I read said dime and suggested he would probably see more play at CB.

He was sitting back in a FS type read react role I believe. Might be a good fit for him.

Anyone else think that Ogletree should be the highest snap count TE not Granson or MOC?

Watching live, I wouldn't have guessed he was that low in snaps.

[Chromeburn]

Ooof, guess this is why we run on 1st every time. Pass rate on 1st & 10 in neutral situations (game close, non-two minute drill)

Am I reading correctly that this just says that on neutral 1st downs, we pass the ball around 37% of the time while PHI/BUF pass the ball around 62%?

Asking because you said, "...this is why..."

We’re running on first down 63% of the time. It kinda seemed like a lot recently, but this confirms it.

So, Sampson Ebukam gets double-teamed about the NFL average but has a win rate above the NFL average.

Kwity Paye gets double-teamed below the NFL average and has a win rate below the NFL average.

Chace Young whom we talked about a bit as a UFA this off-season has a high win rate but is almost never getting double-teamed (duh, the SF D-Line is packed). Would his win rate be anywhere as high if he were the focuse of an O-Line's scheme? That is the question.
