Moosejawcolt Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Man this game hurt a lot as it appeared we were never in it. Remember, this team was predicted to b in play for the #1 pick before the season began. The positive bout this game? We got blown out and it showed all of our warts and how far we r from being an elite team. Now it is time for free agency and the draft. The one thing I hate bout the Tampa 2 D is that if u have no pass rush, u r in big trouble. There is not a lot of scheming, so if your pass rush is not working , u r kind of screwed. The Chiefs O line got lost in all the hype. I know Luck has taken a lot of critisism but man our wrs cannot separate. I watch the weapons on KC and I was just in awe. It was like watching a flag football game. I knew wen we did nothing in our 2 offensive series we were in big trouble. U also got to give it to the Chiefs D. This team had 2 weeks to prepare for their next opponent and they crushed us. Look at Ried's record after a buy. Now teams know we r coming next year. We will c how good this coaching staff really is and how Ballard's picks stand up against elite competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

threeflight Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 As for Luck....He could have thrown it many times to the Rbs but just ignored them. He had enough time to throw considering it is the KC strength. Getting batted at the line that much is rookie like embarrassing. I also saw no fire in his play at all. He was like a robot. 1 minute ago, ReMeDy said: Did you see that last game against KC when he led us back from behind? I don't think the nice-guy mentality means anything.

However that was not Luck today and has not been for a while now. His entire throwing motion and stance when throwing has been way off. I take it you're a qualified QB coach? He was off today, he was rattled and he was under pressure all day. I think you are over-sensationalizing the most recent performance at the expense of the entire season. He had a career year and an 8 week stretch where he was arguably playing the best ball in the league. His mechanics are fine, you don't do that kind of stuff if you are broken physically. The guys across from him get paid too. Relax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChineseColtsFan Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 To me, this shows our lack of playoff experience, including Luck, the coaching staff, and fans. I think everybody tried too hard and thought too much, losing the right mindset. Luck has playoff experience but he was off for a year which was a big gap. He worried too much about mistakes in the past few games. Reich also thought too much. I guess he wanted some changes in play calls in order to make us less predictable, but the sacrifice was that we lost our rhythm. Those defensive turnovers, to me, were results of players thinking too much and being nervous/sensitive. They worried about losing, which was a bad mindset.

He is guiding it.

JR Indy Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 If the Colts had another #1 WR like Antonio Brown. We would be posting about going to either New England or LA next week. But we do not and we have who we have. That said I hope the Colts really consider bringing that guy in. Because seeing where the Colts will be drafting from this year. The chances of drafting that type of WR in the draft will be very very diffcult. Those WRs are gone at that point. There is only one WR-besides TY- that I would bring back next year and that is Inman. The rest they should let go. Andrew has no confidence in that room at all, and it showed today.

That was our shot to win and Reich just more or less said no thanks. Really hard to explain. Luck was horrible. Not sure what is going on but he has not played well since about week 13 imo. I said it last week, I said it many times today....he is guiding the ball. Not throwing it. The thing is I see him sling it at times, like the end of the first half and towards the end of the game, so I really don't think it was physical. I think mentally he is regressing. He shrinks (literally) at times when he is throwing it and the ball motion is that of a girl. I think the coaches should be as aggressive as they can be with him this off season. Get back to him running the ball and have him just throw the ball with a fluid and free motion rather than pointing and guiding it. Many of the commentators today said the same. The D played well. I can't complain a bit about it. They held KC to a decent amount of points. Obviously they need some upgrades but the D did not lose this game. Coaches...where in the heck was Hines??? AV needs to go. Thanks for everything. I said it last week in the kickers thread, but cutting Badgley could be a huge mistake. He looks like the real deal with the Chargers. If anything, I hope this game accelerates CB's rebuilding plan. The Colts are close. Closer than I think he ever thought they would be. Spending money this offseason, and bringing in the twins of Bell and AB? Along with a good draft? Colts win it all next year. The time is now. I was following along until you said this: "He shrinks (literally) at times when he is throwing it and the ball motion is that of a girl." Don't use lame comparisons like that.

Hark Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 This may sound crazy, but I think our team was wearing the wrong cleats, particularly in the first half.

He shrinks, as in crouches, when he throws it under 10 yards as of late. Also why many of his passes are short. No arm motion. No fluidness. That is one of the things that drives me crazy with him. The high number of batted passes. He is 6’ friggin 5! Someone needs to introduce him to a pump fake. Using that from time to time would at least throw off the timing of defensive linemen.

JR Indy Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 At training camp, the fan in me said and hoped that the Colts would make it to the Super Bowl. But in reality I wasn't expecting much out of the Colts this year. Seeing what little they did in free agency and in the draft. Drafting a guard in the 1st, Darius Leonard in the second. But I have been pleasantly surprised. Mr. Nelson has brought an attitude to the line. Darius Leonard has brought excitement back to the D. And Kenny Moore came from no where to outshining everybody in the D-backfield. Luck is back, with a line that will protect him. The future is bright for the Indy Colts. Next season the AFC South should be the Colts once again. Today lost really stung. But there is a reason why KC is the number one seed this year. Here is looking forward to the off-season and next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will be called soft if we continue to go spread formation on third-and-short and try to "out finesse" other teams. The Chiefs repeatedly ran up the middle of the Colts defense on 3rd-and-short and on 4th downs, all resulting in first downs. That is how you get the reputation for being a tough team. We had the mentality of a wimpy nerd, trying to outsmart the opponent rather than being physical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
