85-22

[RockThatBlue]

Colts have been out scored 85-22 in 4th quarters this year 

[kornstar]

Pretty poor and frustrating to be honest!

[Reboot]

Solid coaching adjustments as always.  

[Calmack]

Apparently this coaching staff doesn't believe in second half adjustments....

[Dark_Indy]

The paradigm shift from years past is infuriating. We come out strong, then do nothing in the second half. Cant really blame the defense, brissett just locks up.

(For those who don't understand, that was the hashtag campaign for Chuck Pagano to stay as head coach after the 2016 season. Many players and fans expressed this.)

They can't hang for a full 4 quarters in most games. 

 

Players are letting us down also. Crief gotta catch that early td, Doyle has to just catch in general.

 

Disappointed because they were fighting.

[lance_m8]

No punts all first half then our first 4 possessions of 2nd half we went nowhere props to the D for holding them to field goals for the most part

I agree both of those two need to. At least Crief performed after that. Doyle did not at all. He coughed it up, then could not hang on. You cant blame coaches for that, some people here will cause they always do. And we need to figure out how our defense can keep up during the second half. For some reason they have not been able to hold anyone

[NorthernBlue]

Not winning many games without getting a first down in the third quarter.

Because the defense spends most of the second halves on the field. 3 and outs and turnovers by the offense gass out the defense

I get that farther in the half, but even at the beginning they start to get beat and beat and beat. And honestly something they need to figure out why we cant get going at all on defense. We had one good play in the second half and the rest were somewhat meh. 

[ricker182]

Doyle lost the game IMO. 

Very mediocre TE and he's been very unreliable this season.

This is a weak minded team and weak minded teams don’t finish.

Brissett didn't lock up the offense was horrible more terrible playcalling by Chud coaching on this team is horrible.

[dacoltsboi1213]

We can't even blame the defense. If our offense keeps going 3 and out 3 times to straight the second half, obviously our D will get gassed out. I don't understand why we just collapse in the second half. 

 

Pagano has to go.

I think Pagano is beside himself when the players make a good play every now and then. The camera pans to Pagano and it's like he's trying to hold back from smiling, like he can't believe something good happened with him as a coach. lol

[RollerColt]

This is unacceptable.

But they still only gave up 2 field goals in the 3rd quarter.  It wasn't until the 4th that the Titans did the real damage.

And 6 of those points (Titans) were scored by the D.

Maybe they aren't conditioned enough to play four quarters. You know Chuck runs a soft camp.

So then what's the explanation for all of the 4th quarter comebacks in previous seasons? Luck did that while surrounded by a bunch of guys that were too exhausted to still be playing? Maybe seeing his bright, smiling face in full uniform provided them with the adrenaline boost they needed?

Well they do....

But when they go in at halftime Chuck stops at the vending machine to get a bag of chips and only has 45 cents.  So he starts asking the other coaches if they have a nickel that he can borrow.  By the time he gets one and goes back to the vending machine and eats his chips on the way to the meeting room..... its time to go back out to the field.

Ya but they were getting scorched for total yards. They had chances to stop them and forced punts and repeatedly couldn't get off the field. At a point it is problem with the defense too

[krunk]

If these Jerks can get something out of the offense in the second halves of these games I think that will solve a great deal of the problem.  You can start by not having a 21 pass to 7 run ratio when you were gouging them with the run in the first half.  If it ain't broke then don't fix it.  Modify it some maybe, but don't get away from what is bringing home the bacon baby.  Keep it balanced and mix it up. Chud has this thing with trying to be too damn smart.  He outsmarts himself a lot.

I'm speaking of this year as we have many different players. Each year is unique in it's own way so it's difficult to compare. Also the team has a very weak schedule so this is a troubling trend.
