Impressive. You guys have gotten me watching Davis as closely as possible when Colts games are on around here.

 

I had to look up Indy's overall defensive rankings after seeing this. I'm surprised the Colts aren't higher against the pass and in points allowed with a guy playing like that in the secondary. It doesn't look like QBs are "ignoring" him all that much based on targets, so what's the reason there? Is he the only guy playing well on the back end?

His targets probably skyrocketed after Eli decided to throw his way 20 times the other night lol. Good job Eli

For some reason Eli through at Davis 12 times. Went about as well as expected.

The defensive stats took a big hit after the steelers game.  Prior to that, I believe the Colts were in the top 10 in pass defense in terms of yards allowed per game.  They were also #1 in giving up the lowest completion percentage.  Now they're #5 in that category.   They're #3 in passes defensed.

 

I found it amusing that the Colts and Patriots were the bottom 2 teams in terms of points allowed.  Colts at the bottom with 32.2 and Pats right above them at 31.2.

That's the offensive number. I was just looking earlier today, and that threw me off. The Colts are allowed 23.4 and the Pats, 22.0. League best is the Lions, 15.8, league worst is the Bucs, 30.6.

Lol. Yeah I thought that seemed really high because I think prior to the steelers game they were allowing around 17 per game. That's what I get for posting while multitasking at work :)

Yeah the Steelers game was bad, but it wasn't that bad. 

 

I think for our points allowed per game to be 32, just because of the Steelers game, we'd have given up 124 points (or something like that). It was close...

For some context,  last year we were 9th in the league giving up 21.0 points per game.

 

I was hoping to get that to 20.0 this year.

 

And we were exceeding that by some margin.....   right up until the Steelers game.

 

Now we're at 23.4

 

I'm hoping the final 7 games of the regular season help bring that number down.....   considerably.

Talib and Revis proving to the world just how overrated they really are.

Told you guys all summer long Revis has regressed. Can't wait to see Luck burning him with Wayne and Hilton in a few weeks.

You were just as wrong in the summer as you are now.

What on earth? Did you even look at this listing or watch any football games this year?

 

Manning targeted Revis exactly 3 times last week. 3.

Do you have those stats for Toler as well? I'd be interested to see what it looks like on the other side.

One thing that drives me nuts about Toler is that he gets called for what seems like the lions share of penalties against the Colts. I'm not sure what, but if a flag flies odds are Toler was putting his hands in some guys face.
