Why Can't We Play Like This Every Week?

[UKColt13]

Well damn...

 

Every unit stepped up today. Very proud of those guys.

[SteelCityColt]

Because we don't play GB every week

[CanuckColtsFan]

I'm smiling ear to ear. Great game. Hung on tough. Made plays when we needed to. 4-5 going into the bye. Season is still alive . Fun, entertaining TV

[AllYouNeedIsLuck]

We need to continue to play well and hope for a Houston collapse 

[krunk]

I keep faith in my boys for this very reason! 60 minutes.

[Andrew Luck fan club]

The Colts played good, did anyone else notice we didn't get penalized the whole game? It was amazing honestly. The packers played pretty poorly until the late second quarter. 

[RockThatBlue]

Definitely proud of the team. They stepped up big time and got a huge win.

 

Hopefully this will be a much needed confidence builder.

[KB]

So glad we got the win before the bye. less doom and gloom on the forum for 2 weeks lol.

 

This is the time to get rolling. We can carry momentum like this into the playoffs if we end up taking the division. GO COLTS!

[teganslaw]

If the Colts can play like this in every game, they have a chance. Nice team effort.

If we win our remaining division games as a minimum it makes it interesting, but one game at a time.

it was a mysterious turn around on about every aspect of the team though.  Fun to watch but confusing

[krunk]

I hate that Green Bay scored 26 because we played a much better game defensively than that score indicates.

[Coltsman1788]

We made it closer than it needed to be (as we always do) at the end there but Luck made the big throws needed to seal the deal.  Much needed win in Lambeau but it means nothing if we don't string together some more behind it.  It's time to see some consistency.

In the words of Ice Cube, "Today was a good day." 

 

 

 

[IndyD4U]

This was a HUGE win for us going into the bye. This could be the turning point in our season to actually start playing decent ball

[AlanNC]

This was a good win to go into a bye.  Hopefully they can build on it. GO COLTS.

7 came on the second Luck interception.  The first one Luck was hit when he threw and it led to a missed FGA.  The second, was clearly on Andrew.

We got a personal foul penalty on vontae that set up a TD

[krunk]

If we play like this next week we will whip Tennessee like we should have whipped them the first time.

Maybe that loss last week woke the team up. Besides a few garbage time TDs by GB, the Colts played desperate, and thats good because we were.

[TheRustonRifle#7]

The optimism in this thread has me confused.....lol!

[OHColtfan]

Really think Todman's return to open the game really helped us. Much needed jolt of momentum and spotted us a 7 point lead. D played pretty well, and thankfully the O came through in the end, we could not have given them the ball back again.  Good game today, makes Monday much happier!

Yeah but we usually get a million holding calls a game.

[oldunclemark]

we cant play like this every week because its not fantasy football..

..nobody plays the same (or plays well) every week

 

Oakland is in first place..and they are setting an all-time NFL record for penalties..

Everybody plays bad in some respect every week

[krunk]

So Coltfan12 are you going to come in here and acknowledge that your team actually can beat a playoff team? Or are you going to down play the win and hide under the covers?

We didn't even whip Green Bay playing like this because our Defense was gassed at the end and the coaches played that soft prevent in the last 7 minutes or so.  We have to play better than today for a full four quarters before we see this team "whip" anybody.

That's a really good point....the win AND the bye..

.....It can be a positive 2 weeks and then we get Tennessee.

 

if we get to 5-5..with 6 games left...9-7 is very possible

[oldunclemark]

    ..we don't leave home for the rest of November...happy holidays

[JlynRN]

Great game today !!!  And a great Win also !!!  Hopefully this gives us momentum for the rest of the season.

We just need Houston (5-3) to go 3-5.....and they have 5 road games left..

at Jacksonville,,,,...vs. the Raiders in Mexico City..

..at Green Bay...at Tennesee..and, of course, in Indianapolis on Dec 11

[Colts_Fan12]

And if this game magically makes you all forget that we made garbage QBS look like Joe Montana then more power to ya

[Coltsman1788]

The game was on Luck's shoulders at the end due to our soft playing defense.  And he delivered.  Props to him and to the Coaching staff for having some cojones on the last drive and game clinching pass completion.  I don't think our defense would have closed it out if Green Bay got that ball back.

Is Indy on the schedule??

[Colt Overseas]

Lol, wasn't people on here suggesting at the start of the week Rodgers was like going to get 400 yards and 4 TD's.

 

Thought the backfield was excellent and some of the new linebackers like Edwards, Jackson and Ayers played well. 

 

Our best player on D for me was David Parry.

[NorthernBlue]

I have never seen the board this happy since legit the beginning of last season  

 

love it. Keep it going. We had a similar win like this last year against Denver. Only this time (*knocks HEAVILY on wood*), Luck didn't get hurt.
