If Reich is horrible, then what is Ballard?

If the Colts were 6-2 and have Hines and Mack as backups I doubt it would be as bad as you think

I don’t understand that logic. If running Taylor 25-30 times a game instead of 15-18 times a game is what gets you to 6-2, how are you going to win games when he’s available for no carries. If the extra 10 carries a game gets you 3 more wins, what does 15 less carries a game get you the rest of the way? 2-7?

We’re in a totally different situation than the Titans, I am not saying run Taylor 30 times a game I’ve never said that

So who would you say is sitting better right now the 6-2 run away AFC south leaders or Colts at 3-5 with a fresh Taylor

It largely depends on if you believe Henry having 30 touches a game is why the Titans are 6-2 instead of 3-5. If 10 touches a game from Henry make a 3 game difference then they are just as screwed as the Colts. I don’t think the numbers work out that way though and I think the Titans have been negligent in his use. So that being the case, I’d take the Titans position. But I don’t think the difference in record is because of what you apparently do so it’s irrelevant.

Yes I believe Henry is the sole reason they have that record, he’s their entire offense everything they do revolves around him I hope they turn into a jags or texans like team but with a cheating lying scamming rule breaking piece of shit coach I have to think they’ll still find a way to be competitive

Teams fear Henry. They do not fear others on that team. Without Henry, Tannehill will be like Dolphins Tannehill, and Brown will have more coverage on him. It really is that simple.

So they are 6-2 because of what? Their kicker? The strength and conditioning coach? Water boy?

Henry was leading the league in rushing by like 300 going into our game and was already almost at 1,000. I am going to go with BELIEVE yes, that's my final answer.

I will also go with I BELIEVE the Colts would have a better record with a coach that wasn't fascinated with going for it when he shouldn't, going for 2 pt conversions for NO REASON, and finally, seemingly obsessed with throwing the ball in situations where one of the league's very best running backs is standing on the sidelines watching instead of chewing clock.

Reich sucks

Let's see how the Titans do in the second half sans Henry. I have a hunch teams will key on Tannenhill and he will struggle. I also think both the Titans and the Colts (wild card) will make the playoffs, with the Colts being in a better position if Taylor is healthy. Titans may end up with a better regular season record than the Colts, but if they're one and done in the playoffs, what does their regular season matter?
