In all seriousness, he was a statue a lot, but he did have a couple good runs, and one truly amazing escape. That’s because the pressure got there pretty much as soon as they snapped the ball. have you asked why he was holding the ball? It wasn’t because he felt like it it was because people weren’t open. I saw the coverage up high at the game. Jacoby took off a lot because he had too because there was no one open to throw too. He wasn’t forcing it. That’s what Luck did and that’s when you would get the hands on his head why did I throw that pick from Andrew. Is Jacoby elite? No. Can the Colts win with him in a big way? Yes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. JB missed sever open receivers today. The most blatant misses were over the top when the D was playing shallow. JB has struggled all year with mid to deep passes up the middle. Teams know this, and it's one reason they double TY, and play shallow to clog the short to medium passing lanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised we couldn't get Flacco to turn the ball over, that is why I thought we would win by 7-10 points. Flacco played a JB type of game. JB has to play better than today against the better teams no doubt if we want to get where we need to go. One last thing, what did you think about Reich's play calling today?

TY was still doubled a lot. We did have open guys down field, but those guys were likely the schemed 3rd read which JB just isn't getting to them. An overwhelming majority of passes are simply 1st reads to TY, TE, and RB.

Is it the players or is it the schemes? I’m questioning some of these routes and play calls. Offense was out coached today by a DC we fired and is now a head coach. Vic Fangio has always been a quality defensive coach. And he has good players to work with. The fact that we fired him is not indicative of how good of a coach he is. The Colts have not had a reliable WR next to TY for years.

Fair enough. So that’s why in the thread I’ve said I’d like to see the routes in the all22 version because we can’t see whether anyone is getting open and JB is missing them or if the guys are just being blanketed. That was my whole point because unless someone has the whole field viewpoint and are posting here, none of us know this answer. I just find it extremely Odd that only TY can shake loose and get open but no other receiver can. It may be that way. It may be the routes they draw up aren’t freeing these guys up, it may be that JB isn’t reading coverages correctly. It could be a whole host of things. We just don’t have the answers here. We can, or should be able to agree that outside of the last drive, JB was a flop today as a QB. He certainly gets tons of credit for shaking off that near safety and hitting TY, that was huge throw. It doesn’t excuse the rest today just as Vinny hitting the winner doesn’t excuse his awful year. JB is a newbie generally speaking for live fire starting QB’s, he gets time to mature and grow the skills he will need. It’s not like I’m ready to gut him and toss him out but if he plays like this, he won’t be the long term answer here I’d bet. I certainly hope he succeeds, it’s better for us. Great guy too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyChamp Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I didn’t read this whole thread but I saw some extended highlights just now and just came to dump my thoughts here. The Bears came to play today with their backs against the wall. The Colts weren’t about to let that rob them though. The Colts are being coached right now better than they have been since before Chuck (meaning at some point before Chuck not necessarily the point when the guy before Chuck took over). Reich is getting the most he can get out of this team. Good win today.

If Brissett was not seeing open receivers when he had time in the pocket, then he was a flop.

TY has the least separation average out of the top 5 WRs/TEs on the team. TY (1.28), Doyle (1.54), Ebron (1.8), Rogers (2.15), Pascal (1.53). They don't list Hine's because he's a RB, but he's likely got the best separation on the team. JB is also 25th in AGGN%, meaning he's throwing it into tight coverage more than 24 other QBs. TY is not slow, or bad, this just means he's doubled a lot. But he is definitely not the most open guy. Still, TY has more than double the targets compared to the next WR, and far more than any of the TEs. What this means is he forcing it a lot to TY, and probably because he's stuck on his first read. It's pretty obvious most of Reich's play calls are 1st read to TY, a TE, or a RB. The other WRs are getting open, they are just further down the progression. 14 minutes ago, Chloe6124 said: lol.

This means he's holding on too long, and while the OL was not perfect, he had plenty of time on average.
