1) i know this game is old news but i had a rough couple weeks so i didn't have time to get into this game much. we lost a great friend and colts fan and member of this board. although he didn't post much. rip coltsemc

2) so i waited until i could watch the all 22 and came away feeling a little bit better about brissett. didn't have much to criticize until the 3rd quarter and then he had 2 bad plays. dude had ty open if he would just pull the trigger. they would have been big plays. i am sure you can say that with most qb's but when big plays were so hard to come by, you have to connect. the titans d was just blanketing our wr's for the most part.

the int was a bad throw. needs better placement. overall it wasn't a terrible performance. but we need better going forward. sign me up for drafting Jordan Love.

3) the oline played pretty well overall. the titans d is no push over. and that secondary was lights out almost the whole game. the colts got creative with some chips to help smith and i thought he had a good game. glowinski was the weak link. kelly and him had a bad miscommunication near the goal line that looked like a kelly issue to me.

4) wilkins needs more plaing time. dude is decisive and gets upfield. dude could be our rhodes as long as he keeps not fumbling.

5) we need another wr to step up. they aren't doing it. hopefully campbell can be that guy

6) walker was bad. i want to see more okereke. leonard needs to get better in coverage. that td to the extra olineman was a play he needs to see coming.

7) willis looked good. i know people want him starting over geathers but geathers didn't play bad. i am guessing willis will be the starter eventually. added that extra speed is nice. seeing them both on the field is ideal when they add geathers as the extra lber with 3 cbs and 2 safeties. i like that nickel package

8) hooker looks a lot better this year. much more active down in and down out.

9) i am a fan of our cb's. that is a very solid group. that bs call on wilson pissed me off. that was a good play.

10) margus hunt did not look good at all to me. would like to see grover get some more of his snaps. hunt was unblockable at times last year. he got owned many times by 1 dude. and easily at that.

hopefully i can get time to watch the all 22 after every game and make some notes on specifics. it was a quick watch today since i have been busy.

everyone have a beer for coltsemc tomorrow. and lets beat the falcons

I would like to see more of this alignment vs the Falcons. They are not much of a threat of beating us by running the ball and this alignment would hopefully keep their talented WR's under control, while hopefully forcing some Matty Ice, int's and sacks.

Oh I forgot to mention, I loved Reich going for it on 4th. I would have done it on 3rd when trying to get them to jump

My only disagreement is that I would swap the wording on Brissett and the OL. OL wasn’t bad, but they certainly weren’t good. Way too much pressure when TENN was only rushing 4 all day.

sign me up for drafting Jordan Love.


I'm a San Diego State season ticket holder and we played Utah State and Jordon Love tonight. He was pretty good. Was never sacked, no pics and threw the ball well. The only negative was he fumbled four snaps from center. He recovered all of them so no harm done. He needs to work on that. Utah State won, unfortunately, 23-17. SDSU has a very good defense. Might be worth considering him in the draft.

Did he fumble or is the Center bad at the exchange?

I think in game like the titans one vs a good secondary we really miss Funchess.

All shotgun formation. One snap was a bit low, though.

That's usually fixable through reps. Unless it is an awareness problem and he is distracted by another of his responsibilities or the defense is throwing his off somehow.

5) Campbell looks really good to me, especially this early. He’s gonna give teams fits, assuming TY isn’t hurt to bad.
