This is what happened when we quit running the ball early. When will we get a coach that sticks to what has gotten you here.

In that situation, I would have run it.  Get a TD and the pressure is back on them.

when he was in his prime when did he get shut out by last ranked defense . even the bad games against the steelers with a made kick we go to overtime and the chargers game he never got the ball back

Can you refresh me on Manning's playoff numbers the year they won the SB?

WHY DON'T WE RUN THAT DAMN BALL? coaching meltdown today. 

Yep.  We're playing like we're behind by 30.  KC is goign to start milking the clock, and both Reich and Luck are playing like we have to score right now.

Andrew Luck can * off.

Because Braden Smith completely missed his block?

I don't get why they went with five wide

That was a big mistake. Needed Mack in to pick up the blitz.

A big part of it is our defense. Good QBs love to see the Cover 2. 

Mahomes has shredded basically every kind of defense he has seen this year...not just the cover 2.  I’m impressed with the poise he has displayed in his first ever playoff situation.  He is beyond his years. 

 

Also Luck today is struggling against what was supposed to be a suspect Chiefs defense.   I expected more given his previous playoff experience.

I think so to.

Luck is not injured. This is all playcalling from the beginning. We got away from what got us here and tried to get into a shootout with them.

 

This is probably the most sensible thing you’ve said so far!!! I agree, we were not patient with the run.

Luck has pooped a large brick this game. It’s not all his fault because this game was lost with coaching, game plan, defense, offense and special teams. Nothing went right in this game at all. It’s a night and day team from the past 10 weeks, save the Jags game.

So disappointed in Reich's playcalling tonight. So disappointed in Andrew and this offense. 

 

If you would have told me we would get a special teams touchdown, a turnover in great field position, and a couple stops on defense, i would have told you we'd win going away. Unreal.

He looks like Pagono. We got stuffed the first run of the game so he thought we would stop running.

This what a loss looks like in the game-day thread.

Ah.  Reminds me why I don't come here often.  I had an account awhile back, lost my password and set up a new one, but rarely come by anymore.

Folks, Luck is injured.  We'll find out after the season what was wrong but probably the shoulder again.  I doubt any starter in the league has thrown the ball with less velocity than he has in this game, and he's always had a strong arm.

Thanks Doc

Luck looks like a scared rookie out there.  Deer in the headlights.

 

That being said, I told my wife 10 weeks ago that anything this year is gravy.  Next year will be the year.

 

10 weeks later I stand by that.  IF IF IF Ballard realizes that the time is now and actually signs some legit FA talent?

 

They can win the SB next year.  Of course that is predicated on Luck being ok and not playing like he has the past few weeks.  Because he has sucked.

    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him. 
    • Hmmm.   ”Healthy excuses will be hard to come by.”    Really?   Richardson, who had less than a thousand snaps in college, then had roughly 200 snaps his rookie year.  There’s one.   And Houston has Stroud who had a great rookie year.  Aren’t most media predicting Houston and JVille ahead of Indy this year?  That’s two without any trouble.     I just think insisting on a division title because a fan thinks it’s time doesn’t stand up to much scrutiny.   Sorry, just my two cents…. And often not worth that much.   
    • For me absolutely it does. If Richardson stays healthy excuses will be hard to come up with. As positive as I am with Ballard at some point we have to start winning. He bet on himself by bringing in his own home grown talent this year, what he does at safety in the coming month and a half has me worried as well. We were so close to winning the division last year with a back up QB that my expectation is winning the AFC south this year.    If they make it into the wild card game and lose then the seat is just as hot for me. If they advance further and make a Cinderella run then I’m fully back on board.
    • 3 straight losses for the Reds. They have their moments where they play well. But it’s time to be real. They aren’t a playoff team and will never be as long as the Castillinis own them and David Bell is manager.    De La Cruz is fun, but his career will be wasted on this team. 
    • Am I reading this correct?   You think Ballard’s seat gets hot if the Colts don't win the AFC South?  Really?   So if the Colts don’t win the south but make the playoffs Ballard’s seat still gets hot?    Just making sure I understand your viewpoint.
