Run games gotta be big, JT and AR better have over 200 combined rushing

Pass rush has gotta be there today

No turnovers

If they do these 3 Colts win 24-17

Colts can’t stop the run. They get Buck back but he’ll be rusty. Mixon will run for 150+.

Colts will run the ball well but struggle in the passing game.

The Texans are a good team with a good quarterback, playing at home with first place in the division at stake.

I say they’ll win comfortably.

34-17 Houston.

I just hope AR doesn’t get hurt.

Stroud is good, really good. Gus is bad, like atrocious.

Gus tells his guys in pre-kick off defensive huddle:

"Hey guys, I just want to let you know I am really proud of all of you for showing up today. Knowing you are going to see a QB complete over 80% of his passes and 4 TD's with no INT's, knowing that prior to a game, that's not easy for a defensive unit to just be fine with- but you guys are just built different. On some other teams knowing you are going to play prevent defense on every snap, well that might have a few guys come down with the flu during the week if you know what I mean. But not this group, all of you showed up to take your ass beating, your willingness to spend a lot of time in a 4 man front, and then when we are really nervous to drop to a 3 man, and allow this GREAT QB to just sit there in the pocket for 8-10 seconds, gentlemen I applaud your dedication. Look me in the eyes guys, look in these eyes, I, just like you, am absolutely terrified of CJ Stroud, and just like each and every one of you, I know we cannot even come close to stopping him, but this is what we came here for today, to show up and collect a check for just being present. Gentlemen, we all get paid a ton of money, and think about it, we don't even have to really try when we know we are going to get killed by a HOF QB and a phenomenal coach, congrats to us all for reaching this level of suck. So go out there, be really timid, and know after every completion for a first down, just know I am proud of you for not caring. After every 45 yards plus TD today, just look ever at the sideline and see me standing there, not even caring, and know you too are free to not give a fuck either".

Texicans 43
Colts 17

D on the title

Colts D steps up and sacks stroud 4 times and 2 picks

We fired Gus and I missed the announcement?

Stroud hasn’t played great this year, he’s even worse without Collins

why what was missing?

I don't have much confidence in winning, but I would bet on it being a 1 score game.

Just heard on the radio:
- With Nico Collins, NFL best 274 through the air per game
- Without Nico Collins, NFL worst 115 through the air per game

So Gus has em' EXACTLY where he wants them!

Stroud 476 and 6 TD's

the format is off and it didn't make fun of the texicans

Double team Nico, make somebody else beat you!

He is out today, Stroud has sucked without him. Gus Bradley is primed to change that and help Stroud feel better about himself!

Omaha didn't start drinking early enough.

I wish I had known he was out, I think we have a shot!

I changed to the Colts on Soda's picks, not sure if that is legal or not?

Big game. Come on, AR.

Solid start!

Never understood why ANY player other than a linebacker would EVER basically go into a blocker vs trying to evade the blocker. Yet you see it all the time.

Great start, sigh.

Still can't stop the run worth a shit. And special teams did us no favors either.

"this is just a sit down in the zone"

"just an easy pitch and catch"

"If you're gonna drop back that deep in the zone it's gonna open up an easy completion in the middle"


Unbelievable this fucking dude is still allowed to be the DC!

FGs won't beat us today!

Welp, at least it wasn't a TD.

After a bad start holding them to a FG is something I guess

Gus has them right where he wants them!

Payback!

Great KO return!

Come on AR, RPO and punch this thing in on the first play!

All right, our own great return!

Dulin may be my favorite Colts of all time in terms of what an unsung hero he is to this team.

Welcome back JT!

Nice return by Dulin.

Richardson's passes are looking better today. They aren't getting completed, but they aren't 10 feet above the guy, so hey, progress.

Damn, a screen pass worked finally.

That throw to Pittman was perfect. Just dropped after a hard hit.

Damn, that was really close....

Phew...well, at least it went in.

Gay needs to straighten out!:D

AR is looking much better today. Nice passes.

He Bank shot

Loved the hyper aggressive approach. He threw some good balls. Definitely like the attempts to get him in a groove early.

Man the Gay is scary and you always worry about him missing the hole and bouncing out.

I guess better lucky than good. Mat Gay makes me so damn nervous.
