    The Texans gave up a 2nd rounder in 2025, how is that too much? By anyone's measure, Diggs is a top 5-7 WR in the league. If anything, the Bills got fleeced. 

    30 for a receiver is the very near the  end.

    When the Texans make the playoffs one year after being a dumpster fire, it's hard to argue. And there are people saying the roster is very good.

    We have had numerous defensive coordinators in the past 51 years, the Colt defense has looked the same for the past 51 years. I want to see a new DC next year too, but no matter who it is we still won't blitz and we will give up numerous 3rd and forevers at any spot on the field. God, it is so frustrating and pathetic. We have played good solid defense maybe 4 years in the past 51. When we had Bert Jones we had to outscore opponents. 1987 we played great defense, but couldn't score. Then 1995 and 2005(both those seasons ended against the steelers in very badly officiated games, what a surprise) Whiners on here complain about Ballard, well I'll ask the question, how come in 51 years of Irsay ownership have the Colts NEVER been able to field a competitive solid defense?????? We always employ a triple vanilla, retreat and surrender, super duper soft zone defense, with virtually no blitzes, we rarely even mix up the coverages. There was one play tonight where we only rushed 3 the result of that play was a completion to collins for a first down along the right sideline(nice defense on that one Gus)

    Disagree we had some really good defenses with  Tobin, Blanche, and Jim Johnson.

    Atleast Luck era we owned the division we need to do that first. Why can't we beat Jaguars? I mean they are not even hottest team at the moment yet we can never beat them. Anyways I am very happy with HC working with the personnel he had in backup QB. The DC of not his choice but hopefully he can bring someone better, and Ballard drafting or signing better DB (CB and S). Hopefully not to see Baker ever in Colts uniform again. 

     

    Whatever people says about Shane he is a hell of a coach and has done amazing job. Should he have punt instead of kicked? Well kick was good because it had enough distance so cant really blame him for the miss. Was it a poor 4th down call? It was amazing if it worked because Minshew hit Goodson right in the hands have he caught and make 1st down we would be saying Shane is wizard. 

     

    Anyways this was more of a rebuilding season with Rookie QB, and then backup QB. We were given 3 to 4 wins in the beginning of season, and coming out with 9 - 8 record is amazing season.  I think with draft picks to improve this team we will only get better. Go Colts, and thanks to this awesome community. 

    Colts only won the division twice with Luck.

     

    Interesting strategy to play the entire game terrified Minshew will make a mistake and then put the entire game on him on 4th and game

    So were the Texans, but they're going to the playoffs and we're not. 

     

    We weren't playing the Chiefs or some perennial power tonight, so it doesn't really matter how many games people predicted we would win.  Should have won it.

    I don’t think they should have won it. I hoped, but fully expected the team with their QB1 to win.

    Yes, but it’s so frustrating with this franchise. I heard multiple people in suites & sections below me tonight talk about how they are going to give their season tickets up. It’s year after year with this franchise.

     

    Minshew & the Colts D blew it. Best of luck to the playoff teams 

    That’s just stupid and there will be people who take those tickets.

    Another late season collapse, losing 2 of 3.  It's a trend.  The faces change, but the post Luck era keeps chugging on.

     

    Steichen was okay.  At no point did I think he was anywhere near coach of the year material, and he certainly wasn't tonight.

     

     

    This team was expected to win 3-4 games. Let’s have some clarity for Petes sake
