Moosejawcolt Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Stats kind of misleading. They were running on us pretty bad. The score made them get away from the run.

They were marching with ease early on and just fell apart in the red zone. Then when the game got out of hand, Dak was forced to play hero and we all saw how that turned out..

Jeremy Waldon Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 If everyone cant enjoy this shut out by our rolling defense, then i guess you can go be a cowboys fan and cry the loss away. Our COLTS beat yet another "hot team" in the league with our projected 2-14 young team. I wouldn't want to face us in the playoffs 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this D can somehow hold Barkely and then Henry, what a "trophy" to hang on the mantle. A tuff ask, but i expected Zeke to get a 100. This D keeps surprising me. And Leonard left that "other" LB forgettable. Once again, our increased ability to run AND our improvement at stopping the run backs up Ballard addressing both areas. And now thae rook from Ohio St is making his presence known. I hop we get in, this team hasnt played its best game yet...: and they seem more prepared and confident every week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LATE in the 4th. I'm trying not to get too hyped about the D, but they seem to improve every week. They play loose (which i LOVE) and they make plays.(ballard philosophy again). Below 100 yards is below 100 yards, no matter the score. if we were bad at run D , they would still run no matter the score or time for that matter. I'm not hatin on you, just really dont agree with putting the qualifier on the 100 yard thing. Give them the credit due. Its not an easy thing...... ESPECIALLY on this team historically.

Dark Superman Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Elliot is a straight up beast. The Cowboys offensive line is missing some studs and Elliot was still a force. The Colts blueprint to beating Dallas worked perfectly when we were able to gain a 17 point lead early in the third quarter forcing Dallas to rely on Dak to throw the ball more. Dallas is hard to beat when they have a lead and keep feeding the ball to Elliot. Thankfully, that didn't happen today! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don’t know that we held Zeke Elliott to anything. 18 carries and 87 yards is nearly 5 yards per carry. If the Cowboys had given him three more carries Elliott would’ve had more than 100 yards. Yes, a fantastic effort from our defense but I think Dallas helped by not using Zeke more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horseshoecrabs Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 hmmm.. We shut out the Cowboys, "23 to zip", a team we haven't beat since 2002, a team that was on a hot streak just like Houston last week when we beat them, on the road and we are going to nit pick about the performance, today? Please just enjoy the win already! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard pallo Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Say what you want about Elliot but he is one heck of a back. We couldn't stop him early. They went away from him at the wrong time. Terrible play calling on their part. Once we took a nice lead they had no choice but to pass more. That's football. But he's a fantastic player.
