Colts @ Bengals Game Day Thread

[Ohio Colt]

team was set up for failure the past draft was horrible. we basically got nothing out of it. You cant have drafts like that bc when you have injuries there is no depth. Our system is terrible on both sides of the ball and we have a head coach who is a career coordinator, he is in over his head.

[Ohio Colt]

Get your head around and make a play.

[JlynRN]

C'mon D, let's stop them in their tracks !!!

[snkdy]

Wish that was an INT

[sfergson727]

Man we need an interception....

[sfergson727]

That looks familiar. How many times this season have we seen a uncontested 3rd down pickup on a crossing pattern?

[Ksteve676]

If you are going to blitz...get there.. Good grief

[JlynRN]

Wow big hit by Redding !!

[Jay Roland]

Dalton has all the time in the world today while Luck is lucky to have some time

[SkyBane]

How is it criminal? The fans are the ones that called for the NFL to reach an agreement with the union to get the "real" officials back over the replacement officials. Personally, I said stick with the replacements. They weren't that much worse than the "real" officials (maybe a little worse), and there was no union to deal with. The NFL would have had a lot more flexibility to discipline, then.

His claim was that unions are criminal in nature, not necessarily the officials in particular.

Injuries did really hurt us a lot. It just the playcalling and the effort of the players that are being question. We should have a better team overall next season. We might just hire Mike Shanahan  when he gets fired as our OC.

a pretty ridiculous assertion if that's what he was saying

[JCPatriot]

...almost seems like he's betting .

 

 I don't buy it.  If he was betting, why wouldn't he have just called it a TD to begin with?  It would have been much less questionable if he had called it a TD to begin with (I could see getting it wrong on the field as it was a close play) and then said that there was not sufficient evidence to overturn.  I don't think he is unscrupulous......just incompetent.

Lovely cory

[sfergson727]

Going to be 21-0 soon.

[PrincetonTiger]

Shoot

[snkdy]

Wide open...

[sfergson727]

Davis, what the heck!!!!

[PrincetonTiger]

A near int by Davis

[Ohio Colt]

God - the cherry on this crap sundae is that we traded our 1st round pick for Richardson. Really.

[snkdy]

Damn almost intercepted.

[sfergson727]

I guess that is why he's not a receiver.

[Flash7]

I don't buy it. If he was betting, why wouldn't he have just called it a TD to begin with? It would have been much less questionable if he had called it a TD to begin with (I could see getting it wrong on the field as it was a close play) and then said that there was not sufficient evidence to overturn. I don't think he is unscrupulous......just incompetent.

The other refs called the play down short.

[PrincetonTiger]

Shoot

[snkdy]

Welp....

Yeah in all honesty I doubt he is. He's just flat out a terrible official.

[corgi]

God - the cherry on this crap sundae is that we traded our 1st round pick for Richardson. Really.

He had played well today, get a clue.

[Gabriel Alexander Morillo]

Damnit if you can't get any pressure than just go Max coverage. I swear we have the worst offense, and worst pass rush in the league.

If Dalton throws up a duck, you gotta pick it.

Mother of God learn to play defense and offense. Just fire pep and manusky fcs!

[sfergson727]

People across the country ask me what I like most...I just smile and say I like TOAST, Yeah Toast....

Just like our Colts.

[SkyBane]

a pretty ridiculous assertion if that's what he was saying

Many feel this way. Theres a sentiment among many tea party republican types that unions are just a shakedown operation to remove accountability from underperforming workers.

[jwilli69]

My eyes are bleeding from this crap they call a defense

[JlynRN]

Cmon boys, stop them NOW !!!

[PrincetonTiger]

Ugh

[Ohio Colt]

just use the rest of this blow out game (since we will soon be in junk time here) to work on stuff offensively.

[House]

So weird how they can see all these penalties in real time, but screwed up that replay.....

[Jay Roland]

Mathis has been quiet today except for the penaty

[Ohio Colt]

He had played well today, get a clue.

 

LOL You get a clue. Oh my god. he has 10 yards on the ground and a catch. Jesus people.

[PrincetonTiger]

Shoot

[Ohio Colt]

one of the worst defenses in football.

[snkdy]

Aww come on...
