you are the only one the whole league is laughing at him im on nfl forum right now every single person is calling luck the most overrated thing ever and laughing at him.  even the nfl players voted luck most overrated tied with eli manning.  

 

I have not read that. Care to cite your source? I disagree. I'll take Luck on my team.

 

Kirk Cousins was voted the most overrated by NFL defensive players. Source below:

 

Cousins Voted the Most Overrated

Tomorrow we will hear all about how this defense was a bunch of pretenders and aren’t as good as advertised.

 

We need a major up grade on defense to compete with teams like this. Plus need some receiver help.

It’s a mixture of both. Yes the defense may have been overrated and benefited from some crappy offenses but the Chiefs do this to everyone.

 

The Offense is by far the most disappointing. Hilton has gone ghost. Mack has had a little success but not enough big yards. Andrew was def guiding the ball and not slinging it. Mahomes is doing the opposite

So, your a representative for the trolls equal rights?

 

Not really.

 

But you seem quite the annoying person in here.

 

Fans are allowed to vent, even overreact.

 

You need to just chill.

I was about it is only a 14 point deficit, not as bad as the 28 point 3rd quarter deficit we came back from.  Still 17 points is not as bad as 28 point for a great comeback.  That last drive shows we can move the ball passing with a hurry up offense that we should do the rest of the game.  We need to pass 90% of the plays, run periodically to keep the honest.  A whole team breakdown.  Luck, Ebron first drop, offsides by Autry, Hunt, and Sherod.  Safety Wilcox looks lost but may be because he is a recent pick up to our system. His horse collar flag was stupid, was way out of bounds already.  Lets open it up, if we go down, we go down guns a blazing.

That's the spirit, CAFF

The weather is not an issue..

 

Andrew's throwing it 40 times in the second half and we go no-huddle

If we hit some passes, the run will be there.

 

We can score 3 or 4 TDs in a half

I was thinking about that, IUE

….With Ebron and Cox.....a jump ball toss was an option I bet coach Frank considered

Yep.  Maybe get a PI or something too and get the ball at the 1, then you go for it for sure.  Well, goes without saying, another TD ends this- if they get down by 24 there's no way back.  Get down 20 and maybe, if Chiefs play prevent- they've blown a lot of playoff games, although with different personnel.

[Flash7]

We have to trust our O-line. When it's 3rd and 1 or 3rd and 1, you can't be afraid to run the ball. We need to physically beat them to have a chance.

 

We can't "out-finesse" them. They have better skill players.

[cgi4life]

I don't care what happened in the first half, this is my team and I will believe and support them til the end.  We as fans can be disappointed and angry but we should not be given up.  And if by some way we win this game it will be us true fans that deserves the right to celebrate and rejoice over the victory.

Stop whining...we getting our butts kicked; not the refs. Be for real

There has been at least 2 PI, a hold, and two False starts that have not been called. Butts kicked because the refs aren't cashing the obvious. You can't use someone to push up on, thats PI. People blame cox? You cast out jump someone who's on topthe of you.

Boom!  The commentator on NBC just said exactly what I have been saying for weeks.

 

STOP GUIDING THE BALL LUCK!

 

You throw like a average high school QB.

 

He does not ZING the ball like the top qbs do.

Not surprised by the defense getting shredded. This flacid offense though? Pretty surprised. Just because the KC defense is supposed to be THAT BAD.

Yes. If our defense didn’t play well I had confidence the offense would keep us in them game. Just bad all around. 

 

I think we went to pass happy alt and bad play calling from the start of this game. We wanted to stay balanced and got sucked into trying to outscore them.

To be fair, we all knew defense needed upgrades in the beginning. We overachieved this year and the draft and FA can address the defense like this season addressed the oline. We still have a bright future. Mahomes is just a very very good player.

Yep.  I still would do it.  We cannot ever, ever stop them.  Missed FG probably ends game anyway.

Onside kick recoveries were rare before, now without a running start, you're just handing them the ball midfield. There's no reason to do that. Your best bet is to make them march the distance of the field. 

[Coltsman1788]

Very disappointing first half.  Colts came out with their pants down and never recovered.  Chiefs came to play.  But we still have the second half to go.  We got time.  Time to get our act together or go home.  Let’s go Colts! 

[coming on strong]

we have some good young players to build around i love ballard we will be back lets build a good defense and get better weapons i really love brissett coming in right before the regular season no preseason or training camp and did very well and he is young i think he really can be a stud a pro bowler

[boo2202]

I still believe.

This.

 

We aren’t playing well at all but clearly the NFL wants the Chiefs to win.

Yeah that's probably true.  It's too bad it's so hard to recover, good for player safety though

Totally different offense that we are facing

[#12.]

If Vinatieri makes that kick, it feels okay.  It still feels like a game.  It was that kind of half.  Everything went wrong.

 

Go no huddle.  We can score.  It just depends on how many stops we can get.

39 Tds. 4,000 yards..

Agreed. We way overachieved and even if we lose, it's been a huge win of a season.

Eh, didn't seem out of line- I thought Luck got hit late a couple times and maybe a PI they got by with, but nothing that bad- we didn't establish the run and that dropped third down pass on the first series really hurt.

[Lucky Colts Fan]

Well, if there's a HC and QB that can engineer a comeback in this game, it's Frank Reich and Andrew Luck!

 

   

[Caffrey]

Someone mentioned an onside kick to start the 2nd half, that is an interesting thought and should be considered, we gotout giving everything we got. 

[oldunclemark]

Has Luck thrown an interception or missed any open receivers?

No, he hasn't?

[luv_pony_express]

4 minutes ago, threeflight said:

He has really lost it this year imo.

 

I posted earlier this week in the thread about the field goal kicker they cut this off season who now kicks for the Chargers.  He is going to be a good one.  Wish they would have kept him.

 

I was the OP of that thread.  And most posters raked me over the coals for it.  Just sayin’

You’re completely changing your argument. You were whining that they shouldn’t have gone for the TD on a 2nd and 1. They had 8 seconds and no timeouts.

Jones been putting his hands to Nelson’s head every play. But no call

Watch when Luck is really guiding it.  He is not fluid at all.

 

He shrinks his body, does not take a full wind up, and guides the ball towards his target rather than standing tall and zipping it in there with a FLUID motion.

 

I really noticed it towards the end of the season and big time the second half of the Texans game,

[2006Coltsbestever]

You know it's not our day when Vinny misses a chip shot. Still a whole Half to go but this looks bad.

[tweezy32]

Yeah we are all *.  We can be mad.  No need to post all these negative post we knew we were in for one and our defense was going to get shredded. Did you guys not expect this? 

[JCPatriot]

9 minutes ago, Narcosys said:

So the refs are clearly in the Chiefs pocket. You can't use the offensive player as your base as you list up. But were not going to call PI.

 

Yeah, it's the refs' fault............

[Iron Colt]

The Colts just look like they would rather be somewhere else. Soft, timid, scared, weak and wimpy.
