I guess we have to be understanding with Swoope..I didn't know he never played in high school either

Just makes me shake my head even more how we put so much time into him when he literally has 0 football playing experience.  I thought he at least had some high school experience.  But we kept a guy on our practice squad for a few years and tried to make him a football tight end when he's never even played the game at any organized level.  Sticking round pegs into square holes, the trademark of this regime

[backshoulderfade]

Lets go Colts!

[SteelCityColt]

That's actually a nice play there, like that angle route by Gore as an option.

[legend300]

We needed that, let's get a stop defense.  

[oldunclemark]

Luck said to Swope: "Congratulations on your first NFL catch!"

Swoope said to Luck: "That's my first catch at any level. I didn't play in college or high school"

 

Luck: "Nobody told me that"

[HungarianColtsFan]

This gonna be a big gun-sling today....

I'm not as upset by this, it's sorta what the PS is for after all. 

 

It does show the crying out need for some form of developmental league.

I'd rather have spend that time and energy on someone who has a higher floor than a guy with literally 0 organized football experience

Yep. A minor league of sorts would be awesome. I'd try out (most likely fail) but why not?

[SteelCityColt]

The positive to take is that we moved the ball quite well against a defense that's quietly decent and that's with some very egregious drops thrown in.

 

The negative, our D.

[coltsfan77]

Funny, more relaxed when D is on the field. Guess know what to expect. The O when I seem to be the most nervous. Never know what you get!

Can Pat just kick an onside kick every time.

Didn't some HS team try this? Refused to punt and onside kicked every kick off. 

[RollerColt]

Miscommunication on the Titans.

[21isSuperman]

A quick 3 and out for Tennessee

[BPindy]

There we go D!

[legend300]

That was a nice 3 and out.  Let's go offense. 

[oldunclemark]

wow.,.,.we're not playing the '85 Bears are we??

[backshoulderfade]

Winning on first down is important  good example there. Go D.

[JlynRN]

Well that was a good series by the D that time, forced a quick 3 and out.

Back to back drops.  That's brutal

Reggie needs to come back and smack some heads around.  Pathetic.

[RollerColt]

And we answer with a bad miscommunication of our own.

[21isSuperman]

What a punt

[oldunclemark]

TY wa s held..ref missed it

[SteelCityColt]

Pat... putting the Boom in Boomstick for sure. 

[21isSuperman]

Does anyone think Mariota sounds like the QB from Tecmo Bowl?

I just hope he doesn't go Bo mode on us.

[SteelCityColt]

"He needs defenses to try and defend that run game" 

 

Good job it looks like we gave up trying to stop the run a long time ago.

[coltsfan77]

Know it's not 4th down, but you Think they line up in shotgun?

[RollerColt]

That was a great play from the Titans. 

[New Zealands #1 Colts Fan]
