That's the only disappointing thing about today's game.

Got to run well at Pittsburgh..tough to win a shootout with those guys

I was happy to at least see they didn't give up trying.

I'm sure the shuffling of the OL didnt help.

We are not going to be able to run on the Steelers. You have to keep them honest but the passing game working is what gives the Colts a chance to win. The Seahawks got their win in the air. Wilson threw for 5 TDs. The Seahawks had one rushing TD that was a 1 yard run.

[Jim H.]

Steelers are gonna be tough at Heinz.  Colts win that one...it's Katie bar the door.

[King Colt]

13 yards total at the half. Tackling Gore at his ankles and he goes down like a dead weight. Rashad was not much help. Where was Boom Herron?

[coltsfeva]

TB decided to stop the run and have Hassleback beat them, with his arm. Fortunately for the Colts, Matt/passing game was up to the test. Once we get Castanzo back, I'm sure the run game will improve. They are going to need it in the playoffs.

Question is, will we ever have a 100 Yard rusher in the Andrew Luck era? Ok we did have one = Vick Ballard in early 2012 so I don't want to falsify a Post but it has been nearly 3 years since we have had one!

Cut before the season began. No use crying about it, sometimes the run gets stuffed.

doesn't tampa have like the number 2 rush defense in the league?  I forget if its their Offense that's number 2 rushing or their defense against the run....

He was resigned last week.

As do most guys when they are running.   Ankle tackles are more successful than most other tackles when a runner is in the open field.  

Gore just couldn't quite get away.   Tamps was really getting penetration though.   Glad they didn't stop running Gore though.

really? He was resigned and active yesturday!

Top run defense with one of the best DT in the NFL. It was bound to happen. But got the win. Hilton had like 20 yards last week be Atlanta still won

Some are gonna have down games. Just win

I think Gore is still hobbled.  He gets up very slow and seems to walk gingerly sometimes.  He also has older bones I realize but I just think he is playing hurt because that's the way he is, he wants to help the team and he doesn't want to complain about injuries because he is a warrior (last few of a dying breed).  Once he hits the ice tank and gets some treatment, he will eventually be good... but only with sitting out a week or so.  We need fresh legs in there and I think Boom and Bradshaw could carry the load at Pittsburgh. If we gain 60 yards, I think we would call that a success.

The hawks had 100 yards rushing as well

[BullsColtsFan1]

90% of the Buccs rushing yards were in the first half.  Martin had two good runs to start the game followed by a 60 yard run in the 2nd qtr.  The Colts stuffed the run in the second half.  Now for the Colts, Gore couldn't get loose for anything and Bradshaw had the best run of the day of like 7 yards.  The run game needs to pick it up and I think that happens when Anthony C comes back.  It'll be better imo.

[Bravo]

Doesn't matter. If the team wins I'm not sure why it matter how many rushing or passing yards they have.

They were still balanced yesterday! Ran a lot just didn't get many yards.

Cant be held to 29 yards rushing by anyone...just cant

Tampa has a high rated run defense because everyone throws on them. Numbers lie sometimes

[Gavin]

Nothing gets me more mad when talking about the Colts then the run game now that Pep is gone. On the positive side we won

[The Peytonator]

If it makes you guys feel better, Tampa Bay held the Cowboys and their All Pro offensive line to about the same numbers on the ground a couple weeks ago. The big difference was that our backup QB is better than their backup QB.

Tama has good numbers against the run because they give up a lot in the air...

...as we saw Sunday....

Lets be honest..we didn't run poorly because of Tanpa. We consistently run the ball poorly.

It MUST improve this week at Pittsburgh..we have to win time of possession...especially if Ben plays
