Most embarrassing ending I've seen

The oline played like crap and give KC credit. They covered our receivers well. We need to upgrade the receivers.

Agreed.

 

But that still doesn't explain why he's had so many bad throws. Throws that land in the ground right in front of the receiver. 

 

I worked at Stanford when Luck was our QB here. I've watched him go from my place of work to join my favorite team. I am a huge fan and huge supporter, but he simply played horribly today. Horribly. He was easily outplayed by Mahomes today, who didn't look phased by the big stage.

Colts with a bye and HFA next year. Lock in it. 

Home field and  a bye means a lot.

I would not be shocked if all 4 home teams win this weekend

[The Fish 1,964]

bad job by basically everyone, but the D did show a little heart, so yay? 

 

I'm kind of blown away that that all came down to Luck simply being awful today.

[T-Cubed 0]

Need a reciever, and someone to that can cover tight ends.

I'm just saying its *ic.  All it does it getting you banned, escorted out and possibly arrested.

Lol. What is he doing ?

haha...perfect way to end the game.  Didn't even get the play off.

 

Yep, that pretty much sums up the game.

It really felt to me like coach Pagano was out there coaching this game. Our coach laid an egg on play calling this game imo

Colts OL got served a nice hot dish of "shut up and GIT GUD."

[bluebombers87 476]

Luck for sure didn’t play well. WRs not getting separation didn’t help. Some timely calls in favor of KC on top of it all made it too high to climb. This team played above their means for so long it was bound to end.

Best post of the day.

 

Agree with all.

 

I did forget to add in the OL though my brother  .  They got served a serving a Houston, Jones and the big men.

Fountain may have answered the question of why it took so long for him to be on the active roster.

Luck is a qb like manning, can't show up in the playoffs. He's not what he was.

It's pretty clear that Ballard has to focus 90% of his efforts on a WR core and pass rush.  Great to know the direction they need to go.  

Absolutely. A dominant 3tech and/or DE would do wonders. Hopefully Turay and Lewis improve over the offseason and can be big for us next season. I wouldn't be against drafting another of either if they're BPA..

Yeah...we are a good run blocking line but we are not THAT good a pass blocking line

 

..and I don't know why Andrew had 4 passes tipped...That should not happen.

I hope he's okay

 

Last 6 quarters he did not look good

That was a difficult pass to drop..and he will never be that open again the rest of his career

Andrew Looked like a whipped puppy. Did you see his eyes? Zero confidence.

I think he's been okay in the pevious playoff games, but absolutely horrible today. Just never had the feeling that he could mount a comeback today. He was more of the problem than the solution.

Looked just like vs the jags.

Could be ice. Could be lots of things surrounded by snow.

 

You see, snow has the ability to surround items and take many shapes and forms

I can’t disagree. This was a game where we never adjusted a thing and nothing we did worked and nobody stepped up. This was probably the worst game we’ve played all year. The Jags game will be second because at least the defense played as well as could be asked.

 

inwould t bring Vinny back, I wouldn’t extend Ebron yet, I’d extend Kenny Moore before he gets on the bus. We better use all the cap space this year. I’m extremely disappointed in this game,  wry encourages for the years to come if we buy in.

[HungarianColtsFan 2,101]

Nasty end for a miraculous season. Starting 1-5 and still making the playoffs is great...

 

Somehow everything collapsed tonight...our trustworthy parts malfunctioned: Luck, Vinny, O-line, D...

 

This game leaves bad taste in my mouth, and not for the L.

 

See ya' Colts fans!

[oldunclemark 10,311]

 gave away 11 points...2 missed kicks and a wide one TD drop

 

 

1st and 10 at their 20 and got nothing

They gave up 14 points a game at home.  30 or so on the road.

I guess I have to give them credit...

On the scouting report, clearly they thought they could get hands on those short passes

He always get passes tipped.  I feel like he could use his legs much more.  This year, understandably Luck didn't use his legs as near as much as I thought he could.  He needs to do this much more in opportune situations which happen all the time.  

 

I understand Luck is coming off an injury, but he ran for significantly less this year than in previous years.  He had 0 rushing touchdowns. I don't know if it was the injury or the coaching staff, but this is not something the Colts fan afford to do with such an athletic QB.  

 

I really hope this changes next year and the coaching staff is not discourging him from running the ball.  Contrary to what many might think and his injuries, Luck is an athletic QB.  He has to utilize his legs, when it matters.  Like Mahomes of course.  I honestly think he's somewhat similar on an athletic spectrum.

But there's no real-world explaination for that, is there....

 

Same players..that gap is probably just a coincidence..

Ditto 

[oldunclemark 10,311]

WE missed Doyle and Hooker today, didn't we?

But they had injuries, too.

 

 

 

IN conclusion...

I'm glad KC is not in our division..

 

.and there are 2 kinds of teams: Those that make the playoffs and those who do not. We were a playoff team. IT wasn't a bad year at all.

I've been thinking that with all of these comments about our OL. Their pass rush is legit and I think some of their changes at CB have been big for them. Took the 2 over the hill CB's out for a pair of young guys that started looking solid the past few KC games.

 

That's why I hate hearing season long stats. Week 1 I irrelevant at this point. How have they been over the last 4 or 5 games?
