I think the season is now officially over. You can say "what-if's" all you want, but back-to-back loses against divisional opponents -- neither being the true test, which is Houston -- and our star player calling others out with Luck no where in sight. It's done. We could have maybe made a case Luck could be healthy by the playoffs, but the playoffs are a distant memory now.

 

Oh, and if you want insult to injury... Hooker.

Can't say that about your teammates.

 

But they did give up half a seasons' worth of sacks in one game...

I am not going to defend the line but a lot of those sacks cane because Brissett was holding the ball because no one was open.

 

TY needs to careful or fingers are going to be pointed at him and the receivers too.

The receivers are reliant on the QB throwing them the ball, and the QB is reliant on the OL blocking. Hilton maybe hasn't played great, but he hasn't been the problem, IMO.

 

And yeah, the 10 sacks aren't all on the line, but we all know the line is bad, has been bad, likely will continue to be bad. And the bigger issue, IMO, is the play calling, but Hilton didn't call out the coach, so...

The WR Corp must catch the ball or even goes wrong

Three catches in two games and outside of the two wins next to nothing I disagree TY hasn’t been a problem.

 

They show some of these sacks or scrambles by Brissett on replay and you see no one is open.  You can have the best line in football with Peyton Manning if no ones open it doesn’t matter.

 

honestly I think all three parts of the passing game, line, QB, and, receivers are struggling.

 

for the record I also agree the play calling isn’t helping anyone.

Which he’s not doing because guys aren’t open.  That’s why it’s a team game TY.  His hands aren’t clean in this.

Chud doesn't know what a short passing game is. O line can't block worth a crap and hes still calling too many long developing plays.

Surface level, it's easy to say 'no one is open, the receivers aren't playing well.' But we all know our passing concepts are terrible. 

 

When the QB gets sacked 10 times and hit another 15 times, it's just silly to blame the receivers. Any of them. Football starts up front. The receivers can't catch the ball if the QB can't throw it, and the QB can't throw it if he doesn't have time. It's Football 101.

 

This isn't the game to act like Hilton isn't playing well.

      What about Leonard at safety?

      How many games will the Colts win in 2024?

      By shasta519 · Posted

      I think HOU certainly got better. On defense, they added an All-Pro pass rusher in Hunter and also added Autry. They might have best ER duo in the NFL (though I say that without looking too in depth into it).   On offense, even if Diggs isn't still a great WR, you can do a lot worse at WR3. Nico had a legit breakout and Tank Dell was on pace for 1k+ yard/10+ TDs as a rookie. Even Noah Brown was productive. They have talent and depth there.   They also have a proven TE in Schultz, which I think gives their TE room the edge. Stover is also a prospect I liked. At this point, the Colts TE room doesn't have that TE1.   Colts have the better OL, but HOU is still a top 15 unit, possibly top 10 when healthy (which is the key). They dealt with injuries early last season, but once they got healthy, they were much better.   And at QB, Stroud is the more proven QB at this point.   Have to give them edge on offense overall. On defense, I would have to give them edge as well, due to their secondary. Right now, I think that's a big ? for the Colts.    I really don't see any major weakness, at least on paper. But they do have to face a gauntlet of a schedule, which probably caps their win total. Still, they should be the favorite in the AFCS.   But it's not just HOU, I think TEN is going to be much improved as well. And JAC has won 4/5 games against IND. Just overall, the AFCS should be really competitive, which makes picking up more wins tricky (vs. the past where at least one of those teams was typically bad).

      The only position Maniac can probably play now is on special teams! Put him on KO/KOR/Punt team! I’d kick the tires on that only if it were for vet min!
