Great Run BY Herron

[dw49]

Fabulous run to get the first down. However , we miss Bradshaw as both he and TR stunk in protection today

[Jason_]

Yes it was. The way the 2 backs were running I would like to have seen them run more

[COLTS449]

Yeah it was, the play looked over and Boom looked stuffed, but he found a way to the markers. Man my heart is still beating fast. Great win!!!

[RockThatBlue]

It was almost a disaster, thank goodness he saw the right side was open. It was a great run and it showed great vision and heart by him

[James Harden]

I thought it was gonna be lost of yards..but then he went to the ran to the right side and did that crazy spin for the 1st. That was the play of the game.

Sure did pretty good job on the 3rd down run too as they screwed us out of that 1st down.

[Dark Superman]

Herron has been solid.. I'm glad we have him.

Could not agree more one just has to question Peps approach today .

We are not paying Lynch just not happening to many good backs coming out to over pay a vet

[Bleedin Blue]

I hear ya B-Town. I think Pep just couldn't believe the amount of time that Luck was getting behind the o-line and just decided to focus on the pass. Somebody those ugly plays could have been avoided by Luck running or hitting the check down.

Naw...we should just draft our own...and not leave it too late in the draft taking a chance on a bargain.

Highly, highly unlikely. Practically nil.

Man I wish

[chad hugo]

he was also open several times on the right side but Luck ignored him all game long

It was very odd, didn't like the long yardage situations we put ourselfs in due to play calling.

[lennymoore24]

Yeah, the running was there and the Colts just didn't take advantage of it.  Richardson had 4.3 ypc and was moving the pile.  

[PotatoHead]

TR sucks no matter what and its way past time that the Colts recognized it and benched him!!

[Smonroe]

That was a horrible call, meant for disaster.  Boom turned nothing into something.  I think he had the first down on the review anyway.

 

I thought they'd run Andrew, but maybe they figured the Browns were waiting for it.

Boom Herron...

nope. .. ahmad, boom, Draft scat back(kid from utah, or Amir Abdullah)

[Coffeedrinker]

So, let me get this straight.  When, in a game TRich has 3.25 yards per carry with one nice run he sucks and has not vision or lateral movement or burst or....  When Boom has 3.25 yards per carry in a game with one nice run he's amazing.

 

I'm glad people are so consistent and no double standards or anything.

[PeterBowman]

Im still peeved at that spot on 3rd down

[John Dee]

whooooa   wait ...  I thought TRENT was Indy's starting RB?

 

Right ChucK?           ?????

 

Greg Dolye is giggling somewhere..    as I am.. .    It is just comical how this team SHOVES TRENT down our skull but at the END of tight games....    NO TRENT . . .  anywhere?   

 

Dude cannot play..............................

 

 

Just move on Indy............

[peytonmanning18]

I don't really see the point in investing big in a running back in the modern NFL unless we get serious about our offensive line

[John Dee]

Oh and bye the way.....  FANTASTIC RUN  by BOOM...

 

The MOST meaningful possession of the the game ...     and T RICH is WATCHING.... 

 

As he should.

[John Dee]

The OL looks HORRIBLE WHEN TRENT IS ROCKING THE BALL. 

 

Everyone else seems to ...   ...........       well do well ... or very well..  

 

Now pass pro is another discussion.

Do YOU actually WATCH the games?   Trent is a sloth..............     period. 

 

Boom, gives this O a dynamic Brad gave it.......      BURST.   if you can't see it then ...     just wow...

Looks like another thread that needs to find a home in the everything Trent thread.

[John Dee]

tell that to the guy who has 4577 posts on this board..... 

 

just saying..

 

but I like cherry picking...      and this is an easy get....

No.   Pagano said Trent is our starting lumberjack.  Unless I misunderstood his point.

I tend to say it in general to anyone that is either whining about TRich or making excuses for him.

[John Dee]

fair enough...

[PrincetonTiger]

Both TRich and Boom had nice runs today

[fatboy]

TRich is one of our two backs this season. I will care about next season NEXT season. Trich ran hard, but missed picking up a block than nearly killed Luck. Herron made a critical 1st down, and also missed a key block that nearly killed Luck. If we can eliminate the "nearly killed Luck" stuff, we can win with these two RBs.

[Coffeedrinker]

Yes and I DO actually WATCH the games.  And my comments are based on the GAMES not on PRECONCEIVED ideas (I thought I'd try capitalizing random words as well.  It's fun I can see why you do it.)

 

I like Boom and I've like him since he became a Colt (I hated him when he played for Ohio State) and I never said that Boom doesn't have a good burst.  Yet with that dynamic burst Boom average 3.25 yards per carry while the "sloth" had 4.3 ypc.  When TRich average 3.25 he sucks, when Boom averages 3.25 he's great.  Just pointing out the differences.

On Trich's missed block I can understand it somewhat, he went out to get the safety but it looked like the LB was coming between AC and Mewhort and Trich made the right call... you block the guy closest to your QB but then the LB pulled back and TRich was out of position then to get the safety.

 

Boom's was just a bad block, something he needs to (and I believe will) improve upon.

[Esquire59]

Nice pull and saving block by Mewhort on Booms great run too. 75 needs a bit of credit there. Helped.

[Happy2BeHere]

I was SHOCKED we did not QB sneak that there. When I saw BOOM run into a pile I was like welp...we deserved to lose this one for sure thanks to Luck not taking care of the ball.

 

We had 4 fumbles and 2 INT's today...not a good day for the O. For me the game came down to two things to win.

 

1) Luck had to take care of the ball (he didn't)

or

2) Our kicking game had to be solid (remain 100%) and we had the advantage because Cundiff is ranked #27 before today's games in the league for kicking.

 

Fortunately Cundiff saved the day for us by missing that 1 FG and thankfully VINNY won the game by staying perfect on his 2 kicks!

[Happy2BeHere]

I will add that I don't think there's a single person whom thought this game would end in a 1 point victory. A lot of us had it close but not THIS close...man I couldn't take the anxiety all game long.
