Whole team played well start to finish, very little to complain about this game
The offense seem to let off the gas in the second half, but I think that was by design and not a bad thing. As gutsy as Reich is, he also isn't stupid and knows how to change the tempo when you have a big league, unlike some idiot teams in the playoffs (Falcons in the SB, dumbasses). Its been a LONG time since the Colts could build a lead and then basically sit on it, running the ball and playing solid D, daring the other team to change things up to come back and beat them And the Texans played right into that. Even the TD drive, it was all underneath stuff, short, ate up a bunch of time, which the Colts were willing to give up when ahead by 3 scores.
I think this was Mack's best game as a pro. The one long run where he cut back two or three times, weaving his way down the field, was probably his best run as a pro. He is making me think more and more Bell can look elsewhere for a team next year.
Missed a few chances at INTs.
Not sure I can blame that INT on Luck, good play by Watt.
