Not only the points though the momentum it gives the other team is a killer

(vs. TITANS, 11/26)


Late in the 3rd quarter, the Colts' defense was doing an excellent job overall, holding the Titans to 2 first-quarter field goals and nothing more.

Right on cue, the offense coughed up the ball to give the Titans the ball deep in Colts territory (the 4 yard-line), leading to a touchdown for the Titans and a huge momentum shift in the game.

And why do you call a pitch play deep in your own territory?

I'm not gonna put that on coaches. Marlon Mack has to catch a simple fucking football. It's been an issue for him.

Knowing it has been an issue with him, why pitch him the ball? That is coaching.

Its just a stupid call.

He is a rookie and you know the history of this team turning the ball over at critical teams at THIS EXACT TIME in games, week after week.

So what do you do? Call a play where precisely that can happen.

Do the coaches not watch film of their own team? Any fan could have told them that was a bad call.

Maybe that is what we should just do now. Before every play, fans vote on the calls, they do what we say. Would at least be interesting.
