***Official “Taking Care of Business” and beat Peyton’s brother Game thread

[Racehorse]

Go Colts. 28-13

[albany ed]

Last time the Giants came to Indy, I was there, to see Peyton and the Colts in a laugher over Eli and the G-men. Four years later when the Luck led Colts went to MetLife Stadium, I was there to see the Colts in a laugher over the G-men. This year, my best friend Ray, will be on the 50 yard line, (he's a Giants fan) I had planned on going until the schedule came out and it was too close to Christmas for this NYer. Hopefully, it's another W for the Colts.

[sherck]

Playoff game.

Lose and we are done. Win and we move onto next week (yes, I know that we play next week regardless if we win or lose this week but today's game will determine if next week's will mean anything or not).

This team often rises to the top in the past 8 week (JAX game the exception). Colts 28 - Giants 13.

Giants win. Not sure how the colts can compete with them talent wise.

[Maniac]

RIP Eli. Death by Maniac attack

[Colts And Orioles]

o

After the loss to the Jaguars 3 weeks ago, every game since has essentially been a playoff game.

2-0 so far, going for 3-0 today.

[AlwaysSunnyinIndy]

TY is active. :)

However, Glow is OUT again. :(

Haeg will fill in for Glow again; Recently promoted from the practice squad Ahmad Thomas will start in place of Walker; Mike Mitchell will start in Geathers place.



Colts inactives: C Josh Andrews, WR Daurice Fountain, S Clayton Geathers, G Mark Glowinski, S Rolan Milligan, LB Anthony Walker, RB Jonathan Williams

Giants inactives: WR Odell Beckham, QB Kyle Lauletta, S Kamrin Moore, LB Alec Ogletree, C Spencer Pulley, WR Russell Shepard and DE Kerry Wynn

[GoBigBlue88]

I think Barkley has a big day, but Colts win. I love this defense, but don't underestimate the losses of Walker (today) and Woods (1st-2nd downs & leadership).

[WaynesWorld87]

3rd and 2 and we throw it 30 yards down the field into coverage.

What the fuck was that play call?

[Racehorse]

3rd and 2 and we throw it 30 yards down the field into coverage.

What the fuck was that play call?

Probably trying to set up something for later.

[WaynesWorld87]

Defense a big no-show so far. Just like last week, we aren't doing anything to slow them down. Hopefully we can do like last week and ultimately hold them to a FG attempt.

[Maniac]

Defense off to a rough start.

[Chromeburn]

Trap game. Let down game. Giants came to play. Need to get up.

[Spike]

Colts need to wake the fuck up.

[Brylok]

Jekyll and Hyde defense

[daedge]

Trap game. Let down game. Giants came to play. Need to get up.

Yep, can't let noodle arm Manning drive on us like that.

[Colts And Orioles]

o

The defensive line got penetration on both of those plays from the one yardline, but unfortunately the running back was able to bounce it to the outside and into the end zone on the 2nd play/down.

o

[WaynesWorld87]

Alright, game on.

Not going to be an easy one today if that first NYG drives is indicative of the rest of the game. They shredded us.

Stands to reason, I guess. Defense was lights out last week. Although the Cowboys easily moved the ball on use their first two or three drives. We just managed to block a FG and they missed a FG. No so today.

Our defense looked like ass on that drive.

[Racehorse]

Did Leonard even touch a player with the ball that drive?

[Dewey 5]

Trap game. Let down game. Giants came to play. Need to get up.

If you have those things when you're fighting for your playoff life then you flat out don't belong.

[daedge]

If you have those things when you're fighting for your playoff life then you flat out don't belong.

Agreed. They have everything to play for. We're not 14-0.

[Colts And Orioles]

Did Leonard even touch a player with the ball that drive?



o

He's pacing himself ........ when the final whistle blows, he's going to have 40 tackles.

o

[njcoltfan]

Looks like it could be a long day!

[Brylok]

Just sloppy. They're thinking about Christmas or something

[Dewey 5]

Jags game all over again.

[daedge]

FFS.. Two false starts...at home. I didn't like the run on second down call. Two three and outs to start is unforgivable.

[Maniac]

What the fuck was that?

[Colts And Orioles]

o

Luck choked on that 3rd down throw.

It wouldn't have been a first down, but he still needs to complete those easy passes.

o

[chicagocolt]

Such a sloppy start. Need a stop here from the D

[Brylok]

We need to step up our cheerleader game. Yikes. I see better at the mall

[njcoltfan]

There’s no reason for FALSE starts when you play at home!!! These guys better get their heads out of their asses or next week Brissett will be starting!”

[WaynesWorld87]

Fucking awful start against a Giants team that, ultimately, would probably rather lose to help their draft position. Playoff hopes on the line, home game against a 5-9 team, and we've come out and looked like complete and total ass so far.

This has been some Chuck Pagano type shit so far. Penalties all over the place, uninspired defense, and severe lack of focus on offense.

[Chromeburn]

Luck looks like crap. Unfortunately this is what young teams do. They think bad teams in college are the same thing as bad teams in pros. Nope. Bad pro team will beat you if you don't show up.

[Brylok]

Now 12 men on the field. Might be a long day

[Dewey 5]

So not ready to play today.

[WaynesWorld87]

Wake the fuck up you dipshits!

We don't win this game we don't make the playoffs!!

Fucking dumb shits.

[Dewey 5]

Wake the fuck up you dipshits!

We don't win this game we don't make the playoffs!!

Fucking dumb shits.

They can't hear you.

[Dewey 5]

Getting pushed around.

[WaynesWorld87]

I may just have to turn this one off and check the box score periodically. I'm at family's house and if we keep playing like this I'm going to do something really embarrassing.

[Brylok]

I didn't know that Eli had won a Walter Peyton award. Looks good on him

[WaynesWorld87]

They can't hear you.
Gotcha. Thanks for letting me know.

I had no idea.

[Colts And Orioles]

Wake the fuck up you dipshits!

We don't win this game we don't make the playoffs!!

Fucking dumb shits.








They can't hear you.

[Dewey 5]

So much for the playoffs. Oh well.

[Spike]

How does Shepherd get the wide open. Fuck

[Maniac]

Fuck right off with this crap play.

[daedge]

Shepard just shredding us. What the hell is this? Four penalties v us already. Pathetic start. We look like a 4-10 team.

[Blankhorizon]

Wow this is just worst quarter of the year

unbelievable

[Brylok]

How does Shepherd get the wide open. Fuck

That was a prayer ball, too

[WaynesWorld87]

Fuck this.

What the fuck are we doing?

[Spike]

Damn, Giants up 14-0.

[chicagocolt]

Pathetic. Making Eli look like prime Peyton

[njcoltfan]

Looks like we’ll be talking draft and FA sooner than we wanted.

[WaynesWorld87]

Playoff lives on the line. Lose and we're done.

At home against the 5-9 Giants.

And in order to win we're going to have to come back from a 14-0 deficit.


All the feel goods of this season are being completely blown up in one quarter of play today.

[HoosierinFL]

Fucking hell. This team don’t want it.

[Chromeburn]

Well... best wake up or it will be a long holiday

[daedge]

The O can't afford another 3 and out now. They're just as much to blame as the D. Can't sleepwalk into games like this.

[Butter]

Shit the bed.

[njcoltfan]

Shepard just shredding us. What the hell is this? Four penalties v us already. Pathetic start. We look like a 4-10 team.

Maybe that’s what we really are!

[daedge]

Has the team been reading all the smoke that's been blown up their asses this week? Cause there has been a lot of it.

[Brylok]

It looks like last year again. smh

[HoosierinFL]

Drinking early today.

[Oldcolt]

Young team. Lets hope they learn

[Spike]

Drinking early today.

LOL, I started last night.

[Hoopsdoc]

This is just pathetic. No way we’re winning this game now.

Looks like a Pagano led team, flat and lifeless.

[Dewey 5]

Really!

[Brylok]

Where the hell was Luck throwing that? Entirely on him

[chicagocolt]

Lol WTF!?!?!

[Spike]

WTF Luck? Get your head out of your ass.

[WaynesWorld87]

Fuck this game.

Fuck you Luck. What the actual fuck was that?

[Luck4Reich]

Oh it's still early. Eli will start making mistakes.

[Maniac]

Maybe Luck is sick or something, because he's playing some fucking stupid football right now.

[daedge]

The Colts are what we thought they were. They're what we thought they were.

[HoosierinFL]

Oh it’s gonna be one of *those*

[njcoltfan]

Game set match!!

[Brylok]

Fuck this game.

Fuck you Luck. What the actual fuck was that?

Might want to turn it off, dude

[Big Smooth]

Fucking embarrassing today, this is how we come out at home with everything on the line? Fuck off

[Puck]

Where the hell was Luck throwing that? Entirely on him

No it wasn’t Ebron stopped running

[Hoopsdoc]

Fuck you, Luck.

[HoosierinFL]

I might be switching to whiskey soon

[njcoltfan]

Oh it's still early. Eli will start making mistakes.

NOT if we don’t get pressure on him!!

[WaynesWorld87]

Might want to turn it off, dude
it's off. That was the final straw.

I'll box score watch and turn it back on later if we're in a position to win.

But yeah, this one is "throw the remote" or "punch the couch" levels of rage inducing bad.

[Racehorse]

No it wasn’t Ebron stopped running

It looked awful. There was nobody there to catch it at all.

[WaynesWorld87]

I might be switching to whiskey soon
I'm usually only about 2ish beers in by the end of the first quarter. Started beer 5 in the middle of our last drive.

[Dewey 5]

It's not like the colts were going to do anything in playoffs anyway. That's all I got at this point

[Brylok]

No it wasn’t Ebron stopped running

He stopped before he threw it and Ebron isn't that fast either

[daedge]

The only positive thing right now is that there is a ton of time left to sort our shit out.

[Luck4Reich]

NOT if we don’t get pressure on him!!

They will. Not worried

[Racehorse]

This is when the comeback starts. Colts win 35-20

[Hoopsdoc]

Refs missed a face mask penalty on that 3rd down. Hunt grabbed Eli.

First break today.

[Hoopsdoc]

This is when the comeback starts. Colts win 35-20

Nah, Giants have gained to much confidence now. They’ll gash us with Barkley and just move the chains.

[Maniac]

Refs missed a face mask penalty on that 3rd down. Hunt grabbed Eli.

First break today.

It was a quick swipe, not worth a flag.

[Spike]

Nice catch and run by Rogers.

[Maniac]

Great move by Rogers

[Spike]

Fucking Hilton is a beast.

[Hoopsdoc]

Almost halftime already.

Giants will really have to shit the bed to lose this one.

[Maniac]

What a catch on the tail end of the football

[Spike]

Hines is a hell of a player. Back in this mother fucker.

[Hoopsdoc]

Need a touchdown here.

[Luck4Reich]

Giants are done scoring.

[Chromeburn]

Wide outs need to watch that fighting for extra yards. Easiest way to get the ball knocked out. Don't get stood up.

Nice TD Hines

[Maniac]

Yes, finally woke up. Good drive there.

[Dewey 5]

Need a touchdown here.

Since we got that lets get a turnover.

[Oldcolt]

It was a flesh wound Not dead yet

[Hoopsdoc]

That helps, but we need a quick stop.

We’re still in a bad spot.

[Spike]

Since we got that lets get a turnover.

Blitz Manning, he can't take any kind of pressure in his pie hole.

[Dewey 5]

Blitz Manning, he can't take any kind of pressure in his pie hole.

It'l have to come from him because Barkley doesn't fumble. Ever.

[Dewey 5]

TD was false hope.

[daedge]

Third down D stinks!!!!!

[Spike]

Damn it, need a few more playmakers on defense.

[Maniac]

Yeah, keep doing stupid shit like that, NY

[Hoopsdoc]

That 3rd down conversion hurt.

[Dewey 5]

Eagles are up on Houston. Not that it matters.

[Spike]

Can we not cover fucking Shepherd.

[daedge]

Eli and Shepard just out there playing catch and pass.

[Dewey 5]

This performance is a disgrace.

[Maniac]

Somebody should start guarding that guy

[Spike]

I thought Eli was done. He's playing pretty damn good, hate that fucker.

[Hoopsdoc]

Why take a timeout there?

[njcoltfan]

Couldn’t fight our way out of a paper bag today

[Spike]

If Luck and Ebron were on the same page, the score should be at least 14-10.

[HoosierinFL]

Why take a timeout there?

They think we can get the ball back with some time, but it was a bad idea. Don’t make it easy for them

[Dewey 5]

Couldn’t fight our way out of a paper bag today

Well we're fighting ourselves out of the playoffs

[Hoopsdoc]

Now, if they convert, they can score at their leisure.

[Hoopsdoc]

Dumb. Now we’ve got a minute and no timeouts and they scored anyway.

[Hoopsdoc]

This game is over.

[Hoopsdoc]

Just don’t turn it over, you morons.

[natagu23]

Plenty of time to get into FG range here.

[daedge]

Their ball to start the second half, too. D is going to have pull their heads in to give us a sniff.

[Chromeburn]

The kickoff is so negated now, why even have it?

[Brylok]

Kelly out. Ebron in the tent. Not good

[natagu23]

The guy had a hold of his arm

[Chromeburn]

Concussion on Ebron I bet.

[Hoopsdoc]

I’ll be shocked, SHOCKED, if we win this game.

[Chromeburn]

Well blocking looks like crap. Luck looks inaccurate. See if they can get it together for second half.

[Colts And Orioles]

o

The Colts beat the Raiders earlier this season, in spite of the fact that they played badly for much of that game.

They can do the same today.

o

[Dewey 5]

Nothing really has changed. This team has a lot to learn & needs more talent on both sides of the ball. We're not there yet. It takes a little time to rebuild.

[Puck]

Coaching matters. Let’s see the adjustments in the second half.

[Dewey 5]

Coaching matters. Let’s see the adjustments in the second half.

Like covering Shepard.

[Chaka]

I’ll be shocked, SHOCKED, if we win this game.

Sloppy first half to be sure, but don’t give up hope. Still time to put everything back together. Just need some good second half adjustments.

[Spike]

Damn offsides penalty. Fuck

[Dewey 5]

Thats nice. Give them a free 1st down.

[Maniac]

More stupid penalties.... ridiculous.

[WaynesWorld87]

Just didn't show up ready to play in any facet of the game today. So many silly, horribly timed penalties.

Just...fuck.

[Maniac]

This looks like a Chuck Pagano "coached" team this week.

[Dewey 5]

facemask us

[Spike]

facemask us

Nope, nice stop by the defense.

[natagu23]

lets get the run game going here.

[Puck]

Mack is just fucking awesome

[Spike]

Hell of throw and catch from Luck to Hilton.

[natagu23]

what a snag!

[Chromeburn]

That was a beautiful catch by TY

[Chromeburn]

Mack is just fucking awesome

Sarcasm?

[Dewey 5]

Miss Ebron & Doyle down here

[Puck]

Sarcasm?

Obviously

[Spike]

TD Colts. Hold on negative Nancy's.

[daedge]

Nice snag, that.

[Dewey 5]

Nice grab by Inman. That wasn't an easy catch.

[Colts And Orioles]

TD Colts. Hold on negative Nancy's.



o

Not dead yet ........

o

[Racehorse]

Nice grab by Inman. That wasn't an easy catch.

He is not a world beater, but he should be able to secure a spot for next year. He is solid enough.

[njcoltfan]

TD Colts. Hold on negative Nancy's.

Let's if another stop and score !!

[Spike]

Damn nice special teams play.

[Colts And Orioles]

o


I wonder who Peyton is rooting for today ........

There is no way that a father could root against his son (Archie Manning, rooting for the Colts against the Saints all the way in the 2009 season Super Bowl), but rooting against your brother in a game in which your former team needs a win, and your brother's team is mathematically eliminated from playoff contention may be different.


o

[daedge]

Eli just picking us to bits.

[Dewey 5]

We get back in the game & the D is letting Eli march down the field.

[Racehorse]

Eli just picking us to bits.

Our piss poor tackling is also beating us

[Dewey 5]

Our team is like a MASH unit right now.

[Spike]

Colts with a shitload of injuries.

[Maniac]

What the hell?

[WaynesWorld87]

Giants run a play...Colts lose a player.

Two plays, two injuries.

[njcoltfan]

I think it's about time for a turnover!!

[Colts And Orioles]

Colts with a shitload of injuries.



o

Next man up.

No time to cry over spilled milk, even if a gallon and-a-half of it is spilled.

o

[daedge]

FFS. Make a third down stop.

[WaynesWorld87]

Our 3rd down defense today has been horrific.

[natagu23]

just let them score

[Dewey 5]

We don't deserve to be in the playoffs. Plain & simple. We're just not a post season quality team.

[Spike]

I fucking hate Eli.

[WaynesWorld87]

Need a miracle and hold 'em to a FG here or we're just back where we started at the beginning of the 2nd half.

[daedge]

Our 3rd down defense today has been horrific.

Our D has been horrific in general.

[Blankhorizon]

we haven't put any pressure on Eli

3rd downs are just killers for the D

[WaynesWorld87]

Our defense has been a fucking joke today.

This defense still needs a serious infusion of talent. It fucking sucks.

So much for the comeback.

This one is over.

[natagu23]

lets get the ball back and score.

meanwhile, the defense needs to get their shit together.

[Spike]

We don't deserve to be in the playoffs. Plain & simple. We're just not a post season quality team.

I agree. We need a few more play makers, especially on defense.

[daedge]

Losing Anthony Walker and Clayton Geathers was huge.

[njcoltfan]

The defense must have read all the press clippings from last week's game! This game and playoff hopes are over now.

[NextManUp]

we haven't put any pressure on Eli

3rd downs are just killers for the D

That’s exactly why the Colts aren’t a playoff team. The can’t get pressure without blitzing. An experienced QB like Eli will pick us apart.

[Blankhorizon]

nice blitz pick up by mack

[Spike]

I love Hines.

[Dewey 5]

Now it really is over.. Or not. Lucky break

[Spike]

Lucky fucking penalty. Thank God.

[Colts And Orioles]

o

The Eagles just scored a touchdown.

They lead the Texans by a score of 23-16.

o

[natagu23]

Here we go.

We need a stop.

[njcoltfan]

Here we go.

We need a stop.

I wish I could thank this post a million times !!!!

[Colts And Orioles]

Let's get the ball back and score.

Meanwhile, the defense needs to get their shit together.









Here we go.

We need a stop.



o

Very good.

o

[Dewey 5]

At this point maybe we can hold them to 3.

[natagu23]

Need one of those patented Eli picks

[Big Smooth]

Has Eli missed a pass all day? Fucking hell

[Dewey 5]

Shocking. Giants converted a 3rd down

[Blankhorizon]

wow 3rd down defense

[Dewey 5]

Giants are just toying with us now.

[WaynesWorld87]

Why can't our damn defense get a fucking stop?!?!

[njcoltfan]

Manning just shredding this defense

[njcoltfan]

Have the Giants punted today??

[Dewey 5]

Why did we decline the 10 yard holding penalty?

[daedge]

Horrid, horrid defensive performance.

[daedge]

Eli 23/29 for almost 300. Only against this rabble.

[Chromeburn]

I'm gonna lose my shit. Dude is wide open.

[WaynesWorld87]

We've needed this defense to man the fuck up and make a big play on 3rd down all day and they've repeatedly shit the bed.

Fuck this.

[Dewey 5]

I hope the entire team lets this loss, the Jets loss & the Jags loss burn in all offseason. Next year these types of L's will not be acceptable.

[daedge]

Worst thing is the Eagles are doing us a favor and we're just shitting it away.

[HoosierinFL]

Time for a turnover

[WaynesWorld87]

Why did we decline the 10 yard holding penalty?
Because we stupidly actually thought we could get a 3rd down stop on 3rd and less than 10.

[njcoltfan]

Maybe we can be spoilers next week and keep the Titans out of the playoffs!!!!

[njcoltfan]

Okay, how about a ten minute drive that ends up with a TD!

[Big Smooth]

Only against the Colts does shit turn into gold.

[njcoltfan]

Texans now down by 13 with ten and change left in the 4th

[Chromeburn]

Nice catch and retain by Grant

[Chromeburn]

TY is the only WR that knows how to react against a blitz

[FatDT]

This OL can't protect for shit without Kelly.

[Big Smooth]

That third down was game. Fuck.

Lets look forward to the draft and hopefully we get the pieces we need.

Merry Xmas freaks.

[Dewey 5]

I know it was 4th & 10 but I don't think I would punt just because you know the D can't stop them.

[WaynesWorld87]

I know it was 4th & 10 but I don't think I would punt just because you know the D can't stop them.
Yeah, Giants have moved the ball all day on us. They've punted once.

You have to go for it there. Even if we force them to a 3-and-out, we have to go for it there. They've shredded our defense all day.

[njcoltfan]

Why did we abandoned the run on that series??

[Chromeburn]

I know it was 4th & 10 but I don't think I would punt just because you know the D can't stop them.

Midfield 4th and ten. I wouldn't, just have to hope the defense can do something.

[WaynesWorld87]

Midfield 4th and ten. I wouldn't, just have to hope the defense can do something.

You're probably right, but our defense hasn't done anything right all game.

We're smack dab in the middle of the league as a defense and the last two weeks sum it up perfectly. One week we play like a top 5 defense and the next week we play like a bottom five defense.

[njcoltfan]

Looks like the Eagles are gonna beat the Texans!!!!

[njcoltfan]

So much on the line to play like shit

[Chromeburn]

You're probably right, but our defense hasn't done anything right all game.

We're smack dab in the middle of the league as a defense and the last two weeks sum it up perfectly. One week we look like a top 5 defense and the next week we look like a bottom five defense.

If they can't stop them, not going to win anyway. But odds on a 4th and ten are awful. Don't want to give them a short field for a field goal.

[Maniac]

Did that lady's sign say "12th fan"?

[Chromeburn]

That is two fumble returns for TD taken away by Leonard.

[natagu23]

You cant challenge that.

Pagano moment

[Colts And Orioles]

o


I was worried that Reich would get a delay of game penalty called there, for challenging a play that is unchallengeable (forward progress.)

Apparently the referees did not communicate that forward progress call to Reich, hence no penalty and/or charging of the Colts with a timeout.

o

[Chromeburn]

Did that lady's sign say "12th fan"?

Not the brightest bulb in the drawer.

[Brylok]

Did that lady's sign say "12th fan"?

Bless her heart

[Maniac]

Bless her heart

Who was it that did that comedy bit? Jeff Foxworthy?

[Colts And Orioles]

o

The Patriots are up by a score of 24-6, late in the 4th quarter.

That win will eliminate the possibility of a 1st-round bye for the Colts.

The division title is still possible if they win this game, and the Texans lose to the Eagles.

o

[Brylok]

Who was it that did that comedy bit? Jeff Foxworthy?
Ha. People say that all the time down here

[NextManUp]

Left too much time.

[Big Smooth]

Yyyyyyeeeeeeaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!

Love being wrong

[natagu23]

c'mon defense

[WaynesWorld87]

We scored too soon.

Final score will be 30-28, Giants.

[Chromeburn]

Gotta stop them. 1:00 is a lot of time for a field goal

[Racehorse]

Time for Leonard to show he is the stud

[Colts And Orioles]

o

That was an excellent play by BOTH Luck, AND Rogers.

Luck had to adjust after a bad snap by the center, and Rogers had to extend his arms and bring the ball in on a throw that was high.

o

[natagu23]

Eli is overdue for a pick

[Brylok]

Eli is overdue for a pick
Wizard!

[Big Smooth]

Whooooo!!!!!!!!!

[Maniac]

Man that brings back memories of the AFC championship game

[Racehorse]

Yeah, Hooker sucks

[Chromeburn]

Love me some Hooker!

[natagu23]

He rode Hooker deep.
