Yeah but if you go three and out it’s a big boost to the other team.

Which is exactly what happened.

Agree 100%. and his constant "going for it" on 4th instead of taking the 3.

In a game like this, the best hope is to turn it into an old fashioned defensive slugfest. The absence of Buckner and Sauce makes that difficult.

I thought that timeout by Steichen was dumb as F

I honestly thought the Texans rookie receiver could have had the first down, on that 3rd down catch, if he would've just kept running but for some strange reason he turn a sharp right turn and ran right into the defender!

It was working when we had an offense. But not lately.

It is becoming obvious that the Colts really fucked up bad when they traded for Sauce Gardner, that deal may have set us back 5 years. I realize that Ballard is not at fault in any way!

Yeah, that pissed me off. It gave Ryans time to reconsider.

Luckily, he still made the wrong call but that doesn’t excuse Steichen giving him the chance.

I'm not complaining. Never been. Gambling isn't my thing and I'm too poor to do it anyway.

I think it has ruined sports, probably the reason that it was fiercely kept out of sports legally for decades until recently!
