give it a rest. He did what most coaches would do in those situations. He didn't drop everything thrown his way. He didn't commit big penalties on third down all night long

 

 

seriously? most coaches? any winning coaches would have went for it if their defense was giving up everything.  You can wish what you want, but your wrong so you drop it

no I'm not. You can't go for it from your own twenty with five minutes left and only down one score

I don't think there was that much time left?  Only 3 something if i remember correctly?

With 5 left i may agree with you, but i don't think there was that much time which is why

i thought we should go for it.

you can when your defense has not stopped the other team all night.  How many of their drives were over 5 minutes? Even the offense wasn't sure what they were doing.  that is another sign of his indecisiveness.  and the fact that they had a good chance to score again with little time left that would put them up by 2 scores.  you have to take a page out of the pats playbook and go for it then.  put it on you offense to win the game

yes, they gambled and lost. but they gambled. although they had the lead at the time so it was a slightly different situation

 

they put themselves in a situation they could control to try to win the game. they had trouble with manning all night and knew the offense was the best shot for a W

We flat out stunk tonight. We got manhandled all night. It was a fist fight and we showed up wearing a dress.

Well said....just as we physically beat the 49ers down, we were physically beaten down tonight.

 

For a young team like ours...let it serve as a much needed reality check.

Did somebody call the Colts the 2nd best team in the AFC...ha, ha, ha...what a joke.

4-2, soon to be 4-3 going into Houston after the bye week.

...stat for tonight - drops for the season 8, drops tonight 5.

Well at least there is maple syrup, and hockey.....and Moose. Lets not forget Curling!

I like how you count a loss before the game is played.

It indeed was a poor performance. Bad play calling choices and our defense looked like the worst in the league. The penalties that kept the chargers on the field on 3rd down I think hurt us the most.

Well, on to next game where we all have to hope the team bounces back and wins the next one...more important game next week than was this game.

I was at the game. Drove 3 hours to San Diego to watch it. Some views from what i saw.

Chargers ran the ball ok, wasnt great, but when we needed a stop we couldnt get it.

They ran a ton of crossing routes to beat our man coverage. We played most of the night with a single high safety.

Drops!! Heyward Bey dropped a TD. There was no one behind him. Fleener dropped a few big play balls. The late INT should have been caught the play was right in front of me.

I didnt look at the TOP, but it couldnt have been a good stat with the new offense we run. Im just guessing San Diego had 36-38 mins.

Im OK with the last punt. But MAc hit a bad one. It went 35 yards. If he gets it 42-48, different story.

Just a temporary setback with their second loss tonight with the Chargers 19-9 win over our Colts  Surely the Colts as a team can and will perform better in each of the remaining games. Colts are flying back to Indianapolis, take a day or two off the practice field, then prepare for the Denver Broncos, and  return of Peyton Manning, at LOS on Sunday Night.

 

Colts play their second straight nationally televised game for NBC Sports Sunday Night Football. Other than tonight's loss, enjoy the rest of your week to all of the members here on the Colts Strong community fan forum, and GO COLTS!  ;)  :coltslogo:  :ribbon:  :colts:  :1colts:  :coltshorse:  :coltslogo:

Sorry, Gandalf, but I don't do PC. Men are stronger than women, fact. Let's move on, shall we?

Wow. I'll take brains over strength any day too... something you seem to lack on this issue, or you just trollin'. Either way I don't want to ruin the game day thread with such shenanigans.

Moving along.

Gandalf, look at every Olympic record set by men and women. It will clearly illustrate that men are faster, stronger, and bigger than women. It's okay to say and think so. It's not okay, however, to have the evidence and still think otherwise for the sake of not hurting someone else's feelings.

When I said that the Colts showed up to a fist fight in a dress, I did imply that they played like girls.

    • Sorry late to the party line chat on Page 57 of 94   Skyy Moore, deleted that draft class and notes but Moore seemed to have some potential but wasn't sold on him.  Viewed Moore as an average receiver not much more.  I wouldn't trade for him.   If you were looking to trade for any WR, I would suggest targeting the Packer's Dontayvion Wicks.    As for some of these other comments that I have read up and not going to ready through 30 pages.  Colts spent 200M on most of their own (top NFL) players,    Recent news I saw is that the Colts haven't had any communication talks about trading for Sneed.  How true that is or not to be seen.  Seems the Colts have done a lot spending 200M on their own and doubt we have much cap space left to sign a big-name player like Sneed.  Still haven't seen latest cap space figures since our latest signing.     The Colts build through the draft and those expectations will not change this season.  Again, our organization was lucky enough to sign some of our best positional players.  Sadly, not everyone can get resigned and do expect Blackmon to move on.  Latest rumor is Blackmon signs with the Bills. 
    • The problem is Ballard drafts traitsy raw guys more often than not, so by the time AR is ready we likely won't know if the guys he drafted are IT. That issue then gets compounded by Ballard not using FA to bring in guys who work NOW. THEN if the guys he drafts miss, we'll be waiting another 2-4 years on the next batch... see the problem?   That's fair I guess, but Armstead and Huff were signed for ~$17m/year.   Huff was the 2nd most efficient pass rusher IN THE LEAGUE in 2023 behind only Micah Parson - that's better than Myles Garrett, TJ Watt, Nick Bosa you name 'em. For $17m that's worth taking a shot at, because even if he only produces at a good level he'd still likely be a Jonathan Greenard who signed for $19m. IF he works out though he'd be the bargain of the decade.   Armstead has already played with Buckner and he would be a big upgrade over Grover Stewart for $4m more per year than what we signed Grover for.
    • Great post, thanks.  One of your best.    I think your roster bonus argument crushes my signing bonus argument.   100 percent flattens it.   Like a Quinton Nelson pancake!   I don’t see a counter argument.     Many thanks.          
    • I’d like to focus on one paragraph.   The one about AR working out.   You connect AR working out, which will take 2-4 more years to confirm with “the roster as it is now.”    Thats a flaw.   When we know about AR working out, whether it’s 26, or 27,  that will be connected to the roster that he has THEN, not the roster he has NOW.   See the disconnect?  The roster should be better to support AR.   And I wouldn’t call guys like Luvu or Stone, both guys I like, as shiny toys.  They’re solid players I think we’d all like.  The Sony toys are the four big name plays you listed.  Those guys are just too expensive.  
    • Unless you're the Lions and draft 18th.  I did like Jack Campbell last year.    Agree do think Cooper would be around 20th and later.
