REALLY? REALLY? What a fukn loser! The players were not the ones calling the plays where it was run Gore up the gut of the I-formation, behind Doyle and Bond, time and time again!

Pagano is so good at throwing everyone under the bus, except his own damn self. He's nothing but an asshole.

Good stuff as always Oma.
I hope getting those DBs back helps because I have to tell you, to me, the story of the game other than Brissetts strong play was how appallingly open the
Cleveland receivers were. If their QB was more accurate and if the recievers
didn't drop like 10 balls they would have hung 50 on us easily. Even if we
get those DBs back the fact remains that our linebackers can't cover a sick
mule on the way to the glue factory.
Another point, Moore. He made a stupid st play last week. This week he made
another one on the gunner play and another(roughing) that should have been
called. Why is he here?
I thought Moncrief had a couple of nice catches early. But then when Cleves
d adjusted to Hilton he didn't/couldn't take up the slack. At this point it's
hard to justify giving him another contract. As I said last week, I think we
need a culture change at WR.
Doyel did not have a good game. He had a terrible drop and a fumble and
like Moncrief did not pick up the slack when Hilton was taken out by the
Browns D.
As for the Offensive pass interference penalties they are being called a lot
more this year. I thought the Packers were screwed on that last week against
Atlanta. I was pleased with the officiating this week. At the risk of infuriating
the officiating police on this board, I think the Colts too often come out on the
short end with the refs so I was happy with what transpired today.

The OL may actually be worse this year than last year. Still no running game at all, most of the plays lucky to even get back to the line.

I still like the secondary's potential. The open guys and weakness of the team on D is still the LBers. Can't cover the middle or anything underneath.

For the most part the run D was good, but the TD run it was awful.

They are actually being creative with the pass rush.

Second half play calling, awful. I don't care if Chud goes along with Pagano. Playing not to lose second week in a row and almost lost, again, with a big lead.

Even with Luck this is still a mediocre team until the OL and LBers are better.

Ballard has talked about building a Colts defense that has a ball hawking mentality......that's a smart strategy considering you have someone as skilled as luck to give the ball to.....I think we've seen some really good glimpses of what that can be once this rebuild is complete. Today Rashaan Melvin had 2 big picks and almost had a 3. I love that they are going after the ball (well until we go all stupid prevent in q4.........thanks chuck). Random fact.....last colt to have 3 interceptions in 1 game was 1992....Mike Pryor. Perhaps this new defense will match that mark this year?

This team has 11 new starters on defense and is missing its franchise QB as well as its other two best players. Yes, I see the problem. No, it's not what you're saying it is. It's roster turnover and injuries.

Agreed, what this team has done with Brisset is amazing. We're 0-3 with Tolzien easily
