DILLIGAFER Posted December 4, 2011 Author Share Posted December 4, 2011 I really think Dan started listening to Peyton more the second half and followed his lead. Clyde is pathetic at best. Manning saw it and helped Dan make the adjustments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackhawk4 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Dan did alot better in the 2nd half compared to his play in the 2nd quarter, but he did get his best plays in garbage time when the pats had already won and showed they were taking it easier on us. He performed better than I thought he would, but it wasn't really amazing. His play in the 2nd quarter was still atrocious and besides that 1st drive, there was inconsistency at times which led to three and outs. Not all on him of course, but a combination of bad play calling did not put him in the best situation at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coltsman1788 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Yeah Dan! He put up those numbers in garbage time vs the worst pass defense in the NFL! WTG!Now back to reality.... Start Painter that game was way to close.Yeah...but that is exactly what Peyton did against them last year minus the interception thrown at the end. Pats are notorious for playing that soft prevent D at the end of games which often allows the Colts to catch up during cosmetic time. So that's not exactly a knock against Orlovsky.

Turftoe Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Regardless of being "garbage time" (which IMO is baloney), Orlovsky's passes were crisp, tight, and on target - something Painter is incapable of. Even the interception was a strong, tight spiral and an absolute great play by the defender (I don't think anyone on our defense could have grabbed and held onto that ball).Is he our next starter? NO, but he can provide decent backup QB play. Painter will not be on an NFL roster after this season for good reason..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 He's gonna beat 2 out of the 3 teams we have in the South. He's obviously better than Painter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coltsman1788 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Orlovsky did better than Painter, but the jury is still out regarding his future with the team. Let's see how he looks after teams have some film of him in our offense. Many were starting to feel good about Painter after that Pittsburgh game and we all saw how that turned out.

sfergson727 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Vindication is nice....Should have pulled Painter weeks ago when myself and others were pleading for it. Of course, had we done it, we wouldn't be first in suck for you know who. So I guess it works out either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we played more aggressively defensively and actually challenged the Pats receivers a bit more then this game might have turned out differently.

supremecoltsfan300 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 i hope irsay paid attention. when peyton retires (hopefully in 4-5 years), irsay hires him as oc. i really don't know what the offensive coaching staff does. Peyton was the only one doing anything. I liked that Dan was paying attention to what peyton was saying, you could really see the improvement in his game.

I'd LOVE to get the number 1 pick and trade it for a king's ransom but since the Polians never trade, I'm fine with avoiding the Luck controversy alltogether! I just want us to win a few times. I still think that we'll probably get the first round pick even if we win 2 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason_ Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Dan did have a great game but I'm not gonna get too excited just yet. Like others have said, let's see if he can sustain it and against teams that don't have the worst pass defense. That said though, yes the pats have given up a lot of yards but not a lot of points and Dan did lead us to 24 points...though granted that's only 4 points above what NE is averaging giving up per game but considering how bad the Colts offense has been so far this year that's still pretty good. So I'm cautiously optimistic . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

everybodysgotone Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Orlovsky showed some poise and touch we haven't seen out of QB all year. On the long TD throw to Garcon, he had to wait while PG put a triple move on the CB to get open downfield, then hit him in perfect stride with defenders in his face. Nice throw under pressure. At least he has a vertical game. The Painter experiment was worthwhile in this lost season....we found out he's not a capable backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CantBeStopped Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Did anyone see the look peyton gave clyde on the sideline. It was during the second half im pretty sure and it was just like peyton was like wth are you doing dude. As far as dan. The man played great for not starting since 08. People need to give him credit for that. The game was over and it was just in garbage time? Tell that to Tom brady who had to come back in to kneel the ball so nothing bad happened like a fumbled snap. They were nervous at the end of the game. And who made them nervous? Dan did! He made our offense respectable again. Sure he didnt play great during the second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
