The Browns scored on 4 drives of 10 yards or less.

The defense gave up only two drives that went longer than 40 yards. One was the early TD run at the beginning of the game.

So already the Colts are 12th in offensive DVOA and 6th in ppg, tied with KC, and 1 ppg behind PHI, while facing a tough defensive schedule.

But Gardner Minshew is the NFL's lowest graded QB by PFF (with Ridder).

And they are 20th in EPA/play and 28th in offensive success rate. So it means the offense is succeeding despite being dragged down by bad individual QB play. Wild.

Listening to NFL radio and they had the lead spokesman for the nfl referring on going over controversial calls this weekend. He basically said the Colts got screwed. The first penalty should not have happened bc neither player impeded the other. Also the ball was already fumbled.

Wrong. Still 3* and 4* but the asterisks mean the NFL FUCKED UP. Colts will get a draft pick after Mr Irrelevant is selected.

Like I've said many times...this team is fun to watch again!

Every game is different offensively, with how we attack teams. I feel like every team in the league knew what play was coming with Reich calling plays.

Now we have formation variation, different looks for different situations. It has become totally modern, yet still not gimmicky.

We are the only team in the NFL to have scored at least 20 pts. in every game. Last season it was a struggle to score 20 pts. in any game.

A lot of the same players but a much different result.

Pass protection on pure pass plays. No play action, screens, short throws under 2 seconds, and no defensive blitzes- just four rushers.

Also, Kelly is the highest graded center in the NFL.

A lot makes sense, but how can the Raiders be that bad with such good O-line play?
