Has anybody noticed we allowed 24 in first two games?

Ya it not good either didn't really show much pass rush the first two games either.

[TheOptimist88]

Pretty good considering we've had 40 put on us in preseason. Offense is really failing us. 

[Stephen]

Holding the steelers to 24 will be tough

[Luck 4 president]

besides the turnovers both the starting offenses walked all over us

[lollygagger8]

Colts still can't stop the run. 

 

Pretty disheartening 

[Boiler_Colt]

24? Somebody call Jack Bauer.

[twfish]

So 24 in two games. 24 divided by 2 is 12. The colts will win 12 games this season and 12 games next season. 12 is also the number of our starting QB. He will miss 2 games this season. 24 plus 2 though is 26. That means Geathers will play this year. You heard it here folks

No excuses either, it was basically the projected opening day starters.  Forget game planning, they were just moving our guys off their marks.  Almost at will.

True but if the starting offense can control clock for the first half, that would help us stay competitive, IMO, and that is all you can ask for in pre-season.

[JColts72]

So what else is new?

Made me laugh out loud with that one but then my wife and I fund jokes like SNL's  Jeopardy use of Terd Ferguson to be laugh out loud funny too.

Hey, if I can make one person slightly chuckle then it's all worth it. And Terd Ferguson is funny, it's a funny name.

If the Colts #1 defense played the entire game against the Cowboys #1 offense.....Dallas may have scored triple digits.  Incompetent is not a strong enough word to describe that defense on Saturday.

[ColtsBlitz]

Our offense is so bad that our defense is taking the hit. At least half of the opponents drives started in decent field position because our offense couldn't get any first downs. Once Luck comes back, it should help our defense at least a little bit. The turnovers are definitely more frequent than last year. 

[Introspect]

Last year's preseason the scores were 19 to 18 in the first two games. Take 1 from 9 you get 8. Take 1 from 8 you get 7. Luck's record last season- 8 wins 7 losses.

 

 

We held teams last year to less points last year. Improvement?

 

 

BTW Luck's contract last year guaranteed 87 million

Surely missing Geathers as the enforcer

Have any of you ever of a time when of much with which we will put not such?

Pure coindicence.     Nothing more.

 

It's the pre-season and the starters don't play much.

 

Most of the game is dominated by the 2nd and 3rd and even some 4th string players.

 

So, giving up 24 points in back to back games is meaningless.

 

If/when it happens in the regular season,  then you have a talking point to discuss.      But not until then.

 

Pre-season stats and facts tend to get over analyzed.......

 

[ReMeDy]

Yea, but guys, this isn't really fair. Our starting QB is injured, so unlike the other teams, we don't get a chance to see how our starting offense can compare against the opposing defense, even if it's just for one possession. We could easily be looking at a 7-pt swing in either or both games if we had Luck.

[crazycolt1]

Did anyone notice it was pre season games?

By some of these post you would think it was regular season.

Everyone knows but when people see something that concerns them they like to discuss it. Like the play of Tolzien and the supposedly strong dline. People also discuss things that excite them like Marlon Mack.

Agree, some on here need some football IQ upgrades.

Cowboys starters did anything  they wanted to our starting defense granted we were missing some pieces but they were missing zeke....

I hate to break it to you, but Geathers being in there won't magically fix the entire D

Of course he wont, i just seen a TON of missed tackles come from that SS position.

[ColtsBlitz]

I'm pretty sure the Patriots allowed 31 against the Jaguars, just saying. 

[aaron11]

i think its irrelevant 

 

cowboys could have ran the score up much higher, but they pulled the plug early 

[King Colt]

Third down conversions must not in the Colts 2017 games plan, pathetic in game one and not much better in game 2.

[Bluefire4]

Game 3 is the only week of preseason I take seriously. Tolzien just said in an interview that they didn't game plan at all the first two weeks and just focused on getting better (which is obvious). This is a game planning week. This is the rehearsal. If the defense looks horrible this week than it will be indicative of what we see early.
