Official TY returns to the place he owns Game Day thread

[Luck4Reich]

We had a better chance running ball twice more

[Dewey 5]

And thats that

[ChoppedWood]

Really really really really disappointed in Frank right there- Jim Caldwell managed game better than that shit!

[Brylok]

Brisket had a lot of time. Came up short on the run attempt. Smh

[WaynesWorld87]

Either Brisett sucks at reading through his progressions quickly, or our WRs can't get open.

[Big Smooth]

Injuries finally caught up. Oh and fuck Andrew Luck.

[Luck4Reich]

I wanted to believe in JB but the guy is no more than a solid backup and this game showed it big time.

[Thorgrim]

Either Brisett sucks at reading through his progressions quickly, or our WRs can't get open.

They have a horrific secondary. No excuses. Don’t know what the problem is though.

[Blankhorizon]

JB had to let someone make a play

[Dewey 5]

Either Brisett sucks at reading through his progressions quickly, or our WRs can't get open.

Both

[Butter]

Either Brisett sucks at reading through his progressions quickly, or our WRs can't get open.

It is probably both, we are down to fuck all at WR.

[ChoppedWood]

1 Fucking Play right fucking here--- one big ass fucking play- like in / out of the playoffs level play right here!

Maniac- where the fuck are you????????

Make a fucking play motherfucker!

[Colts And Orioles]

The Texans should have thrown the ball on 2nd down just now ......... the clock was going to stop on the 2-minute warning, anyway. That was a wasted opportunity on their part.


o

[Thorgrim]

Force a fumble.

[Brylok]

I'm still not mad at Frank or Jacoby. You can only do so much with what you have

BOB is going to BOB.

[WaynesWorld87]

The biggest difference in this game is that the Texans have Watson and we have Brissett.
I asked this earlier, but how big would the gap be between us and them if we swapped QBs?

Watson is a really good QB, but he's not top 5 or anything. My point is, we really don't need an elite QB to be a contender with Reich as our coach and this offensive line. But we sure as hell need an upgrade from Brissett.

[Brylok]

It is probably both, we are down to fuck all at WR.

I think it's both

[Luck4Reich]

Game over... fu Hopkins and fu Hopkins mom.

[Dewey 5]

Splitting against Houston, a divisional rival, I can handle. Losing to the Dolphins & Raiders are going to be the bitch of the bunch that keeps out of the playoffs.

[Chromeburn]

Dear god, we cannot throw the ball at all

[WaynesWorld87]

And that's ballgame.

Now that loss to the fucking Dolphins sucks even more.

[ChoppedWood]

fucking garbage D right there.

Sorry, I am losing confidence in Eberflus- when we blitz we do some good shit, but we sit back and let shit develop in front of us way too fucking much, way too much.

[Brylok]

Game over... fu Hopkins and fu Hopkins mom.

Nah, Hopkins is a baller. Player of the game in my opinion

[WaynesWorld87]

And I'm going to irrationally blame the Thursday night bullshit for being partially responsible for this loss. Quite a few stars aligned for the Texans to take a stranglehold on the division 11 game into the season this year.

But, we've done ourselves no favors with that awful loss to the Dolphins.


Oh, and fuck Luck.

[Colts And Orioles]

o


I think that going for it on 4th down was the right call.

If they had punted it back to the Texans, there would have been a good chance that the offense wouldn't see the ball again ........ going for it gave them an extra chance to win the game (going for it was one chance, and if they didn't make it, the defense still had a chance to force a punt for another chance.) If they had punted the ball, they would have only had one chance to win the game (relying solely on the defense.)


o

[NextManUp]

That wasted timeout was a killer.

[Dewey 5]

fucking garbage D right there.

Sorry, I am losing confidence in Eberflus- when we blitz we do some good shit, but we sit back and let shit develop in front of us way too fucking much, way too much.

D did a good job. Offense, specifically Brissett, shit the bed.

[Luck4Reich]

The irony is...... Colts wasted a lot of years of Luck without a O line and defense..... what if our great Oline and defense is now wasted because they dont upgrade Brissett??


I hope not

[Luck4Reich]

Can they please review this???????

[ChoppedWood]

Why the fuck were we in that three man rush bullshit so much in the first half?

Lots of people bitching about Brissett- TY two big ass drops on good throws.

[Dewey 5]

That’s a fumble

[Luck4Reich]

Why dis Texans call a TO?

[Brylok]

Leonard definitely punched that ball out. Should be Colts ball, but REFS

[Butter]

How does that not get reviewed? Fuck the NFL!

[ChoppedWood]

Absolutely that's a fumble- no question but did Darius demonstrate possession? Prob not

[Luck4Reich]

Bullshit

[Big Smooth]

Because the NFL wants the Texans in the playoffs

[Brylok]

How does that not get reviewed? Fuck the NFL!

Like I said earlier, bad product

[Thorgrim]

Scripted shit

[ChoppedWood]

Like I said earlier, bad product

It really really has digressed to something that is pitiful. The crews running these games are disgusting, just fucking disgusting.

[Luck4Reich]

Cant go anywhere with Brissett... Reich knows it and it fucking showed.

[Chromeburn]

Leonard doing it again, we can't review it?

[Spike]

Didn't deserve to win this game anyway. Brissett is not the answer.

[Brylok]

Scripted shit

The WWE is also on Fox now. Just saying

[Puck]

Ok. How was that not reviewed. Not being a homer. Just asking

[Luck4Reich]

And fuck the NFL.

Yep. We need a qb. Somehow someway.

It’s a travesty. I barely watch anymore but I know plenty of folks who lap it up. No reason for them to fix it I suppose.

It's not as bad as that, but it's dropped in quality

Yes it is.

[Colts And Orioles]

o


It wasn't over last year when the Colts were 1-5, and it isn't over this year at 6-5 ........ they still have a split against the Texans, and they both have identical records within the division (3-1.)

It's just going to be a tougher road to hoe. The only team left on the Colts' schedule that I don't like their chances against are the Saints, and they are an NFC team.


o

[ChoppedWood]

I thought we did some really stupid shit in this game, a lot of very questionable clock shit, stuff that is not characteristic of Reich.

The losses to the Steelers and the Dolphins made this a MUST game and frankly, it felt like Frank had a very tentative approach and coddled some guys too much with too much worry about the short week. Overall I think he takes a hyper conservative approach, in some respects the new "load management" approach we see in the NFL aimed at having fresh legs for the stretch run- and I think there's some solid logic in that - to a limit. At some point you gotta fucking just go get it and to me, I don't see a team that looks like they have that mentality.

I doubt we make the playoffs and that's a shame because we SHOULD be in the playoffs with this roster. This really feels like a year wasted now...

[Brylok]

I hate to say it, but the story was written when Luck quit. I have hope in the ownership and GM, coaches and players...but Luck torpedoed us before it even began. I'm going to keep watching and hoping for the best. Night y'all

Last year we had a QB . If you think we got one this year you are fooling yourself.

I tried to hold back. I really, really did. But fuck Luck. And for good measure, fuck Grigson too.

[Puck]

Still don't understand no review. Win or lose. Shoulda been reviewed

[ChoppedWood]

Yes it is.

Yeah I agree, it's a nearly unwatchable product at this point. NONE of these games have flow anymore, there are no stretches where you watch and are just staggered by the intensity of the momentum- there IS NO momentum anymore. I get it, that shit is intangible, you can't really quantify it, but you can sure as fuck feel it and you can see it with your eyes, that shit is GONE from this league, gone. It's become this weird mishmash of fucking window dressing bullshit mixed with truly incredibly bad guys wearing the officials uniforms- they are grotesque in their inability to facilitate continuity and this concept of the grand pooba in NY behind the curtain controlling this shit- what a catastrophe that shit is!

Love the Colts, will always watch them, but I've certainly found myself dedicating a lot more time to other endeavors on Sundays than sitting around watching this trash.

I never said that "we had it", I said that it wasn't over.

Anybody who thought that the Colts would be 6-5 after 11 games 5 minutes after Andrew Luck announced his retirement on August 24th would have been looked upon as a believer in fairy tales.

You can take that position. I'll be rooting for the Patriots to beat the Texans next week, and for the Colts to complete a sweep of the Titans to get back into a 1st-place tie at 7-5.

I suppose that they could have reviewed it, but I doubt that it would have done anything except prolonged our agony for an extra minute or 2.

It was a really shit job by the Texans to fumble in that situation in the first place ........ they had the game after they got the first down, there should be no chance of a fumble at all.


o

[Puck]

Just looked at the remaining schedules. If we win out we are still win the division. If we lose one it's coming down to the last week like last yr. assuming thexicans lose to the cheats next week and we assume we lose to the saints

If we lose one game and finish at 10-6 overall, I hope that the loss is to the Saints, since they are in the NFC.

None of this crap matters, we aren't winning anything with Brissett at QB. FR doesn't have any faith in him, and neither do I.

[Brylok]

I logged back in just so I could thank and comment on this post. This is absolutely correct. The NFL knew it was over for the Colts when Luck quit. They can't come out and say that of course, but they knew. Thus, the dramatic lack of Colts coverage. Houston is also a much larger city and market. More eyeballs and money spent per game. It's all about the revenue. The "rules" are very arbitrary. Goodnight

[Oldcolt]

I’ve always believed the most important thing for any sports team is the front office. We have a good one. Long term this team will be ok. This year impossible to overcome loss of Luck the way it happened. Young team that didn’t win games it should have, like a lot of young teams do. Shitty for us.

[Coltsfever]

The most frustrating game to watch.

[Mr. Session]

Dude can’t throw the ball downfield for shit.

I appreciate that he won’t lose a game for you like Hoyer, but the dude hasn’t proven he can win them either.

Draft a QB this year. If the right one is there, spend the capital to get him. Let him sit behind Brissett next year and part ways.

[Racehorse]

Sorry for jinxing TY and the team with the thread title. Now I know why it only earned a C-, lol

I agree Brissett is not the answer. Its almost like Reich has no confidence in him throwing down field

[albany ed]

It's funny how quickly opinions change around here. One week, the OL is da bomb, but if they have one bad game, they're over-rated. JB has a stellar game, throwing 4 TDs and it's let's hope we can lock him up without breaking the bank. Marlin Mack is awesome, Marlin Mack is too fragile.

Bottom line, all these players are human and they have good and bad games. I saw Nelson whiff on a key block that would have resulted in a huge run had he made it. It doesn't mean he sucks, it was just one play. There is not a single player in the NFL that doesn't have some shitty plays during each game. It's too early to write JB off, but I do agree he has flaws. If the right opportunity comes along, I agree with finding a better option, but not at the cost of a block busting trade to move up on draft day. This team still has way too many holes to fill and depth to attain.

I still believe this team can make the playoffs, but without Luck, I never thought they could go far and I still don't. I'm just enjoying what we have, a good coach, a great GM, and a lot of youth with bright futures. It could be a lot worse, I live in NY and most of my friends are either Giants or Jets fans.

Brian Hoyer, also ........ after the Steelers game, the general consensus of the board-at-large seemed to be that he was a more-than-adequate 2nd string quarterback. After the Dolphins game, he could not be run out of town fast enough.

I agree with you. Question, do you think it is wise to go forward with Brissett and build a team around him that can win or would you go all in for a new quarterback? I think Ballard is not going to use a whole lot of draft picks to move up for a qb. I think that is wise as most of the 'can't miss' guys actually miss. It is a tough decision as I think it is clear that Brissett cannot carry a team like our last qb could (but not many could) However I do think he is good enough if surrounded by a great defense and more play makers on offense to win.

I think the jury is still out on Brissett. Right now, he's the best we've got, but IMO, that doesn't say much. I wouldn't go all in to get one of the top three QBs, but if Ballard saw something in a QB worth taking in the first or second round, I hope he goes for it.

We are well positioned to take a high end development QB - a 2nd or 3rd rounder, possibly even a late 1st rounder. Brissett is under contract for one more year, and Hoyer can be cut after this season with minimal cap impact (unfortunately, this decision needs to be made in March, a month before the draft). Tua maybe?

Tua is the guy to drop according to all the buzz now. I just don’t see it happening draft day. If you think he is a franchise QB and he just needs a redshirt year. Some team will be ok with that and take him.

I saw one mock draft that has the Colts drafting Jacob Eason in the 1st round.

Injury or not Tua will still be a 1st round pick. I like the thought of taking a guy in the 2nd or 3rd though.

I'm convinced that Jalen Hurts should be that guy. He has the perfect temperament, maturity and work ethic to be the next Lamar Jackson.

Needs development. But has all the intangibles. Big arm, height, size.

I'm watching him now, Colorado is destroying him. But I think his line has fallen apart, having major protection problems.

He recovered some in the second half, but they just couldn’t protect him. UWs line is supposed to be pretty good.
