Colts Vs. Patriots Sunday Night Football Game Thread

[Sting]

Luck has actually outplayed Tommy Boy so far tonight.

[cmgww]

Allen being out hurts...but we can do this. Step up on run D and keep pressure on Tommy boy

[jmac_48]

Thanks for the gift Tommy!

[corgi]

Sure. Nicks proves us all wrong.. Still say Moncreif is better, he gets open more.

I'm sure Nicks will disappoint at some point again before it's over, but at least he did well there.

[chad hugo]

Brady has been awful.

 

Who knew their running game would be the major factor 

[Malakai432]

Brady has been awful.

Indeed, but Gray has been all-world, lol...

[Tsarquise]

When did Allen get injured? What happened?

[Malakai432]

I really hope DA is ok, we can't lose him again for the season....

[backshoulderfade]

Who knew their running game would be the major factor

Colts have a nack for making Pats backs look fantastic :/

[Malakai432]

When did Allen get injured? What happened?

That's what I'm thinking, I didn't see anything.

[RockThatBlue]

When did Allen get injured? What happened?

I dont think they showed it. Just remember them saying it. Maybe he was carted off the sideline?

[pgt_rob]

Dwayne Allen being out is going to bite us hard in the end... They will cover Fleener so we will be forced to throw screens or target whoever browner and revis aren't covering for that play. Ugh..

[Dr. Guildo]

Colts have to stop the run game, and we are in business because aside from that first drive of 70 yards they haven't put up spectacular numbers. Brady has made two huge mistakes too... but if we dial the pressure up some more there is no reason for that to stop. Enjoy the game. Go Colts.

[PrincetonTiger]

Indeed, but Gray has been all-world, lol...

That has been the problem

[Shive]

I dont think they showed it. Just remember them saying it. Maybe he was carted off the sideline?

He was. Heard ankle, but that's it. Cart is never good news...

[yankeeclipper]

They took him off on cart. That does not sound good. Hope he is back since he is a game changer at TE

[Stephen]

int and drop by bradshaw the difference

[ruksak]

Update to an earlier stat;

 

Two teams leading in scoring, last 2:00 of the first half;

 

Patriots: 56

Colts: 46 53

[yankeeclipper]

We have to stop their run game and we will need to show some of a run game. Do not like some of the play selection by Colts today. Lucky we are only down 4 points.

[RockThatBlue]

Our run defense has been bad, but we have done a good job on Gronk so far.

[hawkeyes]

Take care of the ball Luck and stop the run and we might pull this one out.

 

 

Our run defense has been bad, but we have done a good job on Gronk so far.

 

 

Maybe because theyve been too busy running it down our throats and haven't targeted gronk much yet?

[PrincetonTiger]

He was. Heard ankle, but that's it. Cart is never good news...

Still listed as questionable

Coby and Jack need to step up

[yankeeclipper]

Bradshaw drop was  major issue along with Luck int. Like I said earlier, we need to show some semblance of a run game and we need to stop them. Looks to me that Brady is off on his throws and we have put some pressure on him.

[IndyD4U]

We need a stop out the gate! GO COLTS

[Cnr324]

Keep pressuring Brady . He'll start hearing footsteps

[PrincetonTiger]

We need a stop out the gate! GO COLTS

Ditto

[Moose Of Woe]

Make them beat us with the run. Keep the pressure on Brady. Do not let up on him.

 

When you pressure him regularly, he is an entirely different QB. Nearly yteam that has beat NE in the years since he became great have pressured him throughout those games. It is not rocket science.

Their run game is gashing us, but their pass attack can gash us a lot worse.

[Gavin]

Gronkowski only has been targeted twice so far through a half

 

Some of the Colts blocking assignments need tweaked at halftime, I'd try to get the Patriots D Line on the move and try to creat cut back running lanes.

 

Also continue to find ways to get Fleener the ball matching him up the Patriots ILB's

 

Then try to establish the run with Bradshaw a bit

 

Then finally if you can get the run game established some, Take a shot to TY deep when you get in Patriot territory

[hawkeyes]

Need stripes to call it both ways too!  Think our receivers have been contacted several times and it hasnt been called, yet has the other way!

[Moose Of Woe]

Wow. Gee great start.

[will426]

I mean I'm happy Nicks caught that but I still wanna see moncrief.

[RockThatBlue]

Crap

[PrincetonTiger]

Ugh

[hawkeyes]

Hope its not an achilles!

[Moose Of Woe]

Need stripes to call it both ways too!  Think our receivers have been contacted several times and it hasnt been called, yet has the other way!

Revis mugging Wayne on the pick was inexcusable.

[poaponies]

how do u leave him open 

[Cnr324]

Yikes

[Moose Of Woe]

Brady getting all day now. Wonderful. Five seconds to throw.

 

Wake the hell up defense. Go for the head of that offensive juggernaut.

[RockThatBlue]

Terrible run defense

[Mr.Debonair]

D-Line is gettin abused
