I heard it is bad to start a thread the day before, but it seemed to work out okay against the Raiders. I hope Gus has a good plan for Stroud. The guy seems to be legit.

[njcoltfan]

Who do you think assumes TY's dominance over the Texans ? Me, I hope JT runs 25 for 160 and 2 TD's !!! Colts 31- Texans 12.

[albany ed]

I feel the Colts will need to score over 30 to win this game.

Either that, or the Colts' defense will need to play up to its full potential ...... which is pretty darned high.

o

[DragonTails]

1. No turnovers (or roughing the punter)
2. TDs not FGs (but don't get stupid)
3. Win in the trenches
4. Refs don't fk us

82% on Hou ATS, 74% on Hou ML. Thanks a good sign.

Varying defensive strategies would go a long way to get this done.

[ChoppedWood]

Think the entire thing hinges on our DL. Houston has struggled to run the ball. We need to continue that trend and shut down the run early. Then we MUST get to Stroud, we have to make him uncomfortable and get him sped up. If we sit back in zone and just continuously rush 4, even without a top shelf WR unit, he will be able to pick this secondary apart.

[IndyNorm]

Agreed that our DL is going to have to play better than it has the past couple of weeks, and I doubt we will but we really should switch up our coverages. Sitting back in a soft zone today will lose us the game.

Also, no stupid ST penalties that gift them extra possessions and points.

[apballin]

All the talk from national media is how Stroud shreds the cover 3… I feel like the under the radar difference in this game will be the range and tackling ability of Harrison and Cross. That puts 2 rangey guys that will come and hit you on the back end, I look for some big hits and a couple INTs from these guys tonight

[omahacolt]

Play action on the first play from scrimmage and go over the top to Pierce.

[CletusPyle]

Gus needs to turn these guys loose...man up and send the house at least once and awhile or Stroud will pick us apart! Since I have been about the worse at picking winners this season me picking the Colts to lose could be a good omen!

Texans 33
Colts. 23

Unfortunately one of the personnel differences in this game will be Julian Blackmon being out.

Good news is JT will play this time... but apparently so will Laremy Tunsil. Kelly went out in the first game and I guess we don't know if he's playing yet? Any word?

I see that Zak Moss will also be back to help JT so the 1-2 punch is back in the run game. A nice rotation of Downs, Pierce and Pittman mixed in there is a winning formula in my world.

PLEASE TITS - Spank the Sparkle Kitties!!!!!

Taylor averages 83 yards and has 7 TDs in 5 career games vs. Houston. I think he takes it over. I like the Colts in a close, high scoring affair.

I don’t care if it worked out last week, it’s bad mojo. Start the damned game day thread on game day. It’s not that freaking hard.

Keys to a Colts' Win:

1) Run the ball
2) Stop the run
3) Start the game thread the day before

The Steelers beat the Ravens ...... so if this game winds up in a tie, both teams are out UNLESS the Jaguars lose tomorrow ...... if that happens, then the Colts will be the 2023 AFC South champions with a record of 9-7-1.

Minshew DID NOT panic under pressure there ...... he stepped up a bit, kept on looking downfield, and found the nearest receiver for a completion.

The Colts took more than 5 minutes off of the clock on that drive ...... make the opposing defense labor, keep your own defense rested.

How many times have we seen that this season, go right down the field then get in the redzone and get conservative and have to settle for a FG!

[YDFL Commish]

Nice drive, but good on was open.

That attempt to draw the Texans offsides on 4th down had about as much chance of working as would a why did the chicken cross the road joke of making somebody laugh.

I'm not sure how Minshew missed him so badly!

I'm not sure how Minshew missed him so badly!

That's why he is a backup. Looks good, then that!

Afraid if he threw it lower that it would get picked for a return TD?

Bummer they couldn't get a touchdown. That's drive was promising.

Nice drive, but Goodson on was open.

I'm hoping that that will ultimately be the difference between Minshew in 2023 and Richardson in 2024 ...... Richardson will hit the open receiver more often than not.

Come on Minshew, you have to make accurate throws.

Taylor has 50 yards rushing already, but sure, throw it on first, second, and third down.

[TheMugwump]

Downs fucked that one up

[CletusPyle]

Looked like a horse-collar tackle on Taylor, but no complaints so must have been all jersey?

Announcers talking about going deep to Pierce. How the hell is that going to happen when Minshew only has about 2 seconds back there.

Yes, thats what the fans are pissed about.

Very good play by the first Colts' defender downfield on that punt ...... he didn't make the tackle, but he stood there and bought time for his teammates to come downfield (as opposed to diving at the runner, and allowing him to immediately go right by him.)

[Spike]

The run D is playing pretty damn good so far.

[Dewey 5]

Need to bring heat on this 3rd down

[nate505]

That first TD is so frustrating because it feels like the Texans would have got a FG at best without it.

It was only a matter of time. Our offense already fucking sucks and we're starting every drive inside our 20 or 10. And our defense already fucking sucks as of late, and the Texans have started pretty much every drive at at least the 30.

[IndyNorm]

Well this is officially over. Disappointing end to the season, but overall we exceeded expectations.

[Racehorse]

Taylor time

[WaynesWorld87]

Zero faith when we dropback to throw because you know Minshew is going to get hurried and have less than 2 seconds to make a clean throw before having to step-up in the pocket and try to make something happen.

Really? Our D gave up a 75 yard TD on their first play and couldn't have allowed anyone more wide open than they did on their 2nd TD.

[WaynesWorld87]

Not at all hard to gameplan for a team that doesn't have a pass game and the QB is not a threat to beat you with his legs.

It's a-fucking-mazing this team has won 9 games.

Minshew is inaccurate as hell tonight.

That was about the worst the first half could've gone, and the Colts are only down by 8. This game is still winable.

[nate505]

It's hard to believe it's a one possession game. Feels like three Texans are up three TDs.

[CletusPyle]

This team needs to come out with a lot more intensity....if we have any leaders on this team they need to speak up now!

[ChaosTheory]

It can't get worse, so there's that.

I blame Cross for the two splash plays HOU has. He gets his head out of his ass, it's winnable.

[Brylok]

They have a franchise QB and we don't. I remain hopeful and optimistic though.

[Dam8610]

Offense needs to run through Pittman and Taylor in the second half. Defense needs to get pressure on Stroud and get turnovers.

[DragonTails]

You can’t win with 45 yards passing. Wow

Buckner. My favorite Colt.

[Racehorse]

Need a good long drive with a TD here. What are the odds?

[CletusPyle]

Give Minshew some time and maybe we can hit Pierce deep!

[DragonTails]

We need to at least flip the field but might as well drive the whole field for a methodical td.

[TheMugwump]

The defense has four or five stops.


Unfortunately, so does the offense.

[DragonTails]

Need a good long drive with a TD here. What are the odds?

Only 4-1 on draftkings

[Spike]

JT is doing his job.

[Racehorse]

There we go

[Spike]

Granson can catch.
