I wonder if the Colts should have let Sanchez try those last 2 FGs? This team has to go 9-3 the rest of way to get in the playoffs!

If healthy I think the offense will be ok. But Reich needs to take the fucking points when there.

If you can’t rush the passer you go nowhere in this league. This defense will not succeed without a passrush. They chose not to supplement the passrush with a FA veteran. They said “No, we have to play the guys Ballard drafted”. Which is bullshit. You earn playing time. If you can’t earn playing time you don’t deserve to play. Well this is the hole they dug. They can wallow in it.

I missed part of the game. Where are you talking about taking the points? On the 2 point conversion?

Yes. He didn’t need to go for two. They are horrible in short and goal situations right now. They are at the bottom of the league. Even if Blankenship is hurt. A chip shot is still better odds than a struggling offense.

They’ll be lucky to win 3 more games

Ok. Ss Blankenship was hurt. He couldn't get on the field for the first one, luckily we got a second chance. then he missed the second one. Obviously there was an issue. It was the right call to go for 2 there we were moving the ball at will. Maybe it was a bad play call but the right call to go for 2. Blankenship left 7 points on the field. Those plays changed the game

The clincher in all this. We won’t even get a 1st round pick out of this season. We had to compete with ourselves and offer a 1st because Roseman, who had zero leverage, wanted one.

I think they will destroy the Texans next week! Beyond that, who knows...they are not as bad as their record for sure!

Funny as I read through this thread how everyone was talking about how great the D was playing then we lost 3 out of the secondary and everyone wants Eberflus fired .
