How did we lose 8?

o


3 of those 5 wins came against AFC South opponents (the Texans, the Titans, and the Jaguars) ........ subsequently, I have no inclination to question how and why they won the games that they did this season.

Good coaching.

Because the team is not good.

Easy, we're as good as we are bad.

Thus, our 7-9 or 8-8 season.

Appreciate the fan chat. I was once asked if I could sit down while we were on defense at a patsy game. Fans? I miss the wave and the eventual unevenness between the upper and lower level.

This is the stupid, lazy answer!

1. Brisset isn’t a starter. The guy would be 3rd string on some NFL teams.

2. Depleted WR Corp with a QB that isn’t a starter.

3. Very young defense. I believe we were starting more rookies than any team.


The fact this team has won as many games as it has with Brisset and a depleted receiving Corp is actually amazing. With a Luck or Manning at QB you would have a hard time finding a game we lose this year. Maybe the Saints.

Brisset at QB is 5-6 losses for this team no matter how you cut it.

We upgrade our QB we are back in the mix.

This post made me re-live the AV missed kicks, the untimely INTs of JB, the WR drops, etc. Thanks for those awful memories being dredged up again.

Brissett is just awful. He seems to be regressing, especially his accuracy. Which is compounded by the fact that he makes every throw at 900 miles per hour.

The story of the Colts future will depend on whether the team is smart enough to realize that they MUST upgrade the quarterback position or whether they foolish enough to stick with Jacoby.

The league got better tape on Brissett and figured out better how to exploit his weaknesses, and he failed to adapt. That's why the Colts were at one point 5-2 and are now 7-8.
