TigerColt Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Thought the OL played well. Way too many mental mistakes, injuries, and dropped passes to overcome. Priority in offseason needs to be DL/ edge rushers, CB, WR, and RT or RG (depends on where they put Smith) Joseph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Superman Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I'm guessing Braden Smith looked solid again at RT? How did Glowinski look at Guard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoColts8818 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Honestly the line has played pretty well this year as a whole. They just don’t have the skill guys they need or they can’t stay healthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClaytonColt Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 With three 1st rounders and a 2nd rounder out there I should bloody well hope they did! Unfortunately the lack of talent across the rest of the roster makes it the next best thing to pointless anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il vecchio Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 No sacks, and 5.5 yards/carry. Good job by the OL! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernBlue Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Hey the offense was moving today, against a decent Jets front. But this young team battling injuries is making too many mistakes to overcome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt Overseas Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 The offense isn't far away. We need a RT, a between the tackles RB and a WR (or two). Then were good to go. We need a lot more on D though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stitches Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I agree. This is what I wanted and expected to see with the return of Castonzo. This OL looked very very solid. Kept Luck clean for the most part and was good in the run game in the second half. We still might need one more starter to add to this group, but I like the prospect of this OLine.

Lawrence Owen Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 The o-line did it's job. The WR's though...........I was on the 'let them play and see how they do"..but now Luck has 3 picks in 2 games off pass deflection/drops. And too many drops while wide open. Man we need Hilton back. And Doyle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMichael557 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I would say that Q had his best game. He dominated the Jets DT. Smith did a good job as well. 2 big Rookie pickups. This is what you have to do to grow the team. Not sign a 35 year old free agent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IinD Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Luck had a clean pocket today. They were solid and he was rarely knocked down either after his passes. They just seriously have no playmakers when you take TY out of the equation. The O is leaving points on the board or giving points directly to the other team. I'm not saying the D are world beaters by any means. But if Luck isn't getting killed each game, we should be scoring more in theory. It's tough right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krunk Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I don't think Wilkins got any carries. Something going on there? Not even when Turbin got hurt. Mack was balling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he's referring to the dropped screen pass that went for 7 points. Similar to the toss sweep that he dropped against Pit or Tenn from last year that went for 7 points. Needs to clean stuff like that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but I just dont like to see the fumbles because that could have turned into a scoop and score or something. It was a turnover either way, but I think if you're going to have one at least give the D a chance to stop them or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krunk Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Mack is the #1 back on this team as of right now and I'm pretty certain of that. And I think Wilkins ought to be the #2 guy. I think Mack should get about 15 carries a game, Wilkins should get about 10 and Hines should get the rest along with his passing game work. Honestly I'm hoping Jonathan Williams is a better back than Wilkins and they bring him up to replace Wilkins. Don't know that yet but we shall soon see! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgt_rob Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Colts need to lean on Mack and the run game more. Mack had a couple huge runs but most of the running happened during the 2nd half. Not going to beat very many teams without running the ball and utilizing the clock and wearing down their defense and giving our guys some rest. Turbin looked like he was in a good amount of pain when he was tackled too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
workinman Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Back to the O-line, the announcers have been praising them the last two games. Luck staying up and clean. Hopefully they keep improving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
