    The next 3 games

    I say let them play thats the business, thats what they get paid for and resting starters never turned out well for the Colts in the past! And that was in years where we were real Super Bowl contenders!  We aren't contenders this year and the team has so many issues they need every snap to figure out how to improve. Luck needs to build trust with Rogers, Brazill... Injurys might happen, but they can happen in practice or at home or in the first minutes of the playoff game. Thats just something that you cant prevent!

    Care to explain?

     

    With all the slow starts and rusty plays I don't think it would be a good idea to rest half of the team the next three games. There are a lot of things to improve if we don't wanna be a one and done team...

    I just reviewed the play. There was OVER 8 MINUTES LEFT in the game and we were only down by 14. You don't go for it on 4th and 6 on your own 25 in that situation. That's one of the most damn stupid things I've ever heard suggested here. 

     

    Yes, the Bengals mounted a 5 minute scoring drive afterward. However, our coaches are guilty of a lot in this game, but being psychic isn't one of them. 

     

    I don't think it is stupid it's not like our Defense was that great so you can rely on them. And just look how it turned out? We gave up an easy TD after an awful Special Teams play no way we could have done any worse by playing the 4th down. Sometimes you just have to risk something and beeing behind two scores with even 8 minutes left and a very inconsistent team on both sides of the ball I don't know when you would risk something? And by the way the Bengals drive that ended with Andy Dalton easily wallking into the end zone was a 3:15 minute drive after we gave up 43 yards by a Tate punt return, with a Defense struggling getting pressure on Dalton and that gave up 155 rushing yards.

    Because we could've still won. It's only 14 points. 

     

    Over 4 minutes (or was it 5 or 6) isn't the time to put it all on one play. 

     

    It takes exactly 2 plays to surmount a 14 point deficit. 

     

    So and what happened? We didn't go for it, Special Teams gave up a long return and the Bengals scored an easy TD. I have to disagree you have to go for it and take some pressure on the Bengals too.
