This game has to be a statement game.

[NannyMcafee]

The Colts have to come out and make a statement today that they have what it takes to make a playoff run without Andrew. The Colts overall have been acceptable, but if you lose today you lose a little faith from the fans this year. 

 

Come out, and punch these guys in the jaw. 

 

Ebron needs to show up and forget about Andrew Luck.

Meh. Most on here were predicting a winless season. Most were saying we’d be lucky to be 2-2 WITH luck playing. 

 

That said, we just need to win. The rest will fall into place on its own

[2006Coltsbestever]

A win today would show me a lot. Beating a good team in your division is always huge. If we lose for some reason it will be a downer but our schedule is favorable over the next month so it will not be a death sentence if we lose today.

[Yoshinator]

This is a bad matchup for us. The Texans are good against the run, and we can't win a passing matchup Vs the Texans if it comes down to that with Moore, Hooker, and possibly Desir out. I hate to be negative, but I don't see how we win this game.

[DEColtsLover36]

Statement made!

[Imgrandojji]

We got our statement.  Delivered by the air game of all things!

Tastiest crow you'll ever eat.  Enjoy! 

 

(I thought we were at a disadvantage too.  HUGE praise for the D that played way better than they "should" have).

[coltfaninnewyork]

So proud of the boys !!

[Coltsman1788]

Big win by our Colts today.  Message sent to the Texans, division and rest of the AFC. The Colts are still the friggin Colts. We are not going away.

I'd rather be wrong in predicting a win, that right in predicting a loss.

Well, we won a passing game vs. Watson and co.   And, you just witnessed how they win this game so..... Keep doubting going forward, it's working this far!

Yes sir. The Colts win. And its the way the team won. Key players return. Oline did their job, Coaching was as good as I've ever seen. JB was great, defense including Desir stood up. This was an amazing game to watch.

Not sure why you quoted me...I wasn’t singling Jared out at all.  Personally, I can understand anyone who was a little apprehensive about today’s game initially.  We all have to eat some crow at some point.  Whenever I do I take mine with some Texas Pete or Sweet Baby Ray’s.

I think I missed and ment to quote someone else.  It's all good

[2006Coltsbestever]

Brissett is the man moving forward, he proved it today. 326, 4 TD's, no INT's and we beat Houston on top of it. 1st place in the South. Our run game struggled today and it was Brissett that carried us with accurate big throw after accurate big throw. I looked at our schedule and I do not see us losing for a while. If anyone doubts Brissett after today than they need bifocals , now to the Draft, can we discuss what defensive player we are going to draft instead of drafting some college dude at QB that will crap his pants at the sight of playing in the NFL. Lets put Chad Kelly to bed too, please lets do at least that  

[Chrisaaron1023]

We were down hooker and Moore on d.. and we matched them pretty well. Obviously Hopkins can't be held down by anyone but the Patriots. But we did well!!

Hooker may be back next week? Not sure. That will help.

[2006Coltsbestever]

This is so great, I talked the talk with Brissett before this game so I had to walk the walk.   Brissett played the best game of his career. Thank you #7 for not making me look bad and making the haters look so bad.

Jared eats a lot of crow. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

The fact we did that without hooker and Moore was so impeessive. That means defense can only get better. I was reading some tweets we used Desir in the slot a little and even the way they used Sheard so far out wide  it looked like he was even in the slot. Eberflus has them coming together.

 

Anyone want to see Nelson as a fullback more and get a TD. Lol

When we play Pitt, I hate them so much  . If we were up big and I was coaching I would put in Nelson at FB and run it in for a TD

Who is this Andrew Luck you mentioned?

[CanuckColtsFan]

I am so happy with this team. They are built to win so many different ways. They can win balanced, with the run, or the pass. The D can stop the run and play the pass. Of course they're not perfect but this young  team has me fired up.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Huge statement today. Texans came in as one of the best in third down. They were 4-12. Also one of the best red zone teams. Defense played so well.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

With the Mahomes injury I think there is a argument that can be made now the colts are the second best team in the AFC.

[bluebombers87]

Great win. Texans fans were straight up disrespecting us (still are, saying refs gave us the game somehow). If JB continues to grow and the defense sticks with their ability to get serious pressure rushing four, we have a real shot at going deep in the playoffs. I said before the season after Luck retired that we’d go 9-7. Double digit wins are a very real possibility at this point which is all the more impressive and speaks volumes about Reich.

 

Really looking at that Chargers game wishing we had that one back now.

[Fisticuffs111]

This was a great win, and we did it without some key guys...

 

The only thing I will say is we really benefitted from their undisciplined play. Same goes for the Chiefs. We won’t always get bailed out by flags, not that it was the only reason we won. It did help though.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Something about the colts brings out other teams undisciplined play.

There is a new Sheriff in the South and his name is Jacoby Brissett

Coaching, we have the best Coach in the division and it really isn't close.

KC fans were disrespecting us too. Some Colts fans in here said JB was trash basically and wanted couch crasher Chad Kelly as their QB  . It is what it is. I am glad we have the GM, Coach, and QB we have. So far so good.

I have stuck up for JB all along and always said he was above average. After today I believe in him 100% now. Before today I was nervous, now I know.
