PHJIrish Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Nice win for the Colts today, a 41-15 road win at Buffalo. They kept the pedal to the metal today. No letdown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muda69 Posted November 29, 2021 Author Share Posted November 29, 2021 The Colts lost because Wentz and Reich conveniently forgot the Colts have the current leading rusher in the NFL. Instead they run something like 25+ consecutive pass plays. Run the damn ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not disagreeing with you....perhaps Reich waited too late to go back to the run in the 2nd half. Hard to argue with the point production in the first half. TB played to stop Taylor and the pass ate them up. But, guessing they made adjustments in the 2nd half to stop the pass game and that is probably when the run might have been more effective. Reich waited until well in the Q4 to give Taylor the ball. One thing is for sure...the Colts don't like it easy. Tennessee lost again, but no ground made up.....

Hines played a lot more in the 3rd quarter...which surprised me a little. Taylor catches the ball out of the backfield well also. All in all, I am not disagreeing with you. I just think (and I could be mistaken) that Reich hold most of the cards offensively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHJIrish Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 It looks like the Colts are trying their best to blow another big lead. Leading 20-0 after three, they refuse to run the ball with the top rusher in the NFL. 20-0 isn't a big enough margin for Frank and his team, I'm afraid.

temptation Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Still gonna regret those collapses against Baltimore and Tennessee when playoff time rolls around.

When you get a turnover at your opponent's 20 yard line you don't throw the ball, you give it to your bread and butter man! Taylor should be in the MVP conversation! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHJIrish Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 The Colts OL is decimated and still they lead the Cardinals 15-12 late 3rd quarter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHJIrish Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Nice win for the Colts, 22-16, considering the circumstances. The OL was down to one starter in there but they found a way to win. Carson Wentz ain't so bad after all. The NFL "experts" all picked 'Zona to win the game, but you can't blame 'em with all the injuries in the Colt's OL. Also the Cardinals played very sloppy football tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHJIrish Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 If, and hopefully when, the Colts get healthy, they should have some depth after all this. Lots of guys getting significant playing time should make them better for the playoffs. Who'd a thunk it when they started 0-3 and lost at least 3 games with double digit leads late in the game.

Players take pride in “taking one for the team,” subordinating their own wishes for the good of the team. Players who sacrifice for the team are praised for it. Conceptually, what is the difference between playing in a big game when you’re not physically 100%, and getting vaccinated so that you’re available to play to the greatest extent possible, rather than sitting unavailable in extended COVID protocol because you’re unvaccinated? Is it because the whole COVID thing has become a political football (no pun intended)? Or because there is some difference between being out because of COVID vs. being out because of a sprained ankle? Either way, you’re unavailable to help the team. I don’t get it.

It would be better if he would openly discuss his reasons for not being vaccinated. I just find this to be the ultimate sports selfishness.

DE Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Just a side note to the commentary on Wentz. The NFL just changed their protocols again. It sounded like they are treating vaxxed and unvaxxed the same. Depending when wentz got tested and showing no symptoms, he will be able to play in the colts next game.
