Colts Vs. Dolphins Game Day Thread

[krunk 4,276]

We look terrible out there. The QB and the playcalling is bad.

Yeah...but they were playing another tanking team...all bets were off.

 

I think the Colts will win...I just don't really know how.

Defense will have to committ TO's, if not one for a score, for me to have any confidence in a W at this point.

...tanking teams give games away.

 

No, they don't.  People can't wrap their heads around this.  Tanking does not benefit the people that are on the field.  Those people are playing to have jobs next season.....either with the Dolphins or with another NFL team.

 

Look at the year that the Colts "tanked" for Luck.  How many people associated with that team were around to benefit from having Luck the next season?  Yeah, it was good for Colts fans that they were the worst team in the NFL and got the #1 pick, but it wasn't good for any of the people (aside from Irsay and maybe Reggie Wayne) associated with that team.

30 minutes left. Our back ups in a huge game. Let’s see what happens. We are who we are, we have to impose our will,be more physical!!! Go Blue!

I don’t believe anyone anywhere ever would say that. I honestly think Hoyer is one of the single worst QB’s on a roster. 

Hoyer still looks at more than one we, that'd be about it

[Coltsman1788 1,495]

And this was supposed to be the easy stretch in the Colts schedule.  Colts struggling with cupcakes.  Meanwhile the rest of the division just keeps winning. Smh

I can't watch, but it sounds/feels like the plan itself has been flawed on o and d.  Is that accurate?

I think the defense is doing well enough.

[JediXMan 517]

Hoyer has thrown as many INTs in 5 quarters as Jacoby has in 8 games...

[ScotColt 185]

Hoyer should stick to just being ‘the locker room guy’

[kornstar 137]

Well that was inspiring.....

This game really shows how good JB is. We look like a completely different team on O without him. Credit the D, Miami has had a bajillion drives and still only have 10. We need to put in Kelly and pull out all the stops on the playbook.

[krunk 4,276]

I have a greater appreciation for JB now for sure.

Actually, it was a big disappointment...

[mahagga73 209]

On Freeney day with all the legends back.  Unbelievably embarrassing.

Robert Mathis stuck around too, but if I’m not mistaken we lost guys like Freeney and Saturday from that season. Tanking for Luck was awful, even if we did get Luck out of it

Mine is for TY Hilton. I see how why we don’t win without him

So every team with a losing record is tanking?

 

Ugh...they were both 1-win teams at the midpoint of the season...not just "teams with losing records." 

 

Regardless, the Colts aren't the NYJ. I believe they will figure out how to win this game.

[Shafty138 1,432]

If Reich really does relate with the whole backup to the rescue, igniting a team thing, we will see Kelly.... I'd not, thTs ok.... But announcers should stop pushing that narrative

[boo2202 454]

And how much is Hoyer making on that two year deal? Can’t remember exactly.

[Fisticuffs111 1,994]

I'm curious as to why we're not running more rub routes/quick hitters. Maybe we're trying, but these lofty passes from Hoyer aren't getting anything going.

[boo2202 454]

Reich will not put jelly in unless Hoyer gets hurt so put that one to rest.

It isn't like he is our starting QB. Brissett is actually solid

Why does the word "tanking" trigger so many people? MIA obviously does not care about winning this season.

[krunk 4,276]

Ebron cries for the football and then as always the ball comes to him and he drops and turns it over in the damn endzone

[LuckyHorseShoe§ 417]

Another bad pass by Hoyer

[Shafty138 1,432]

Wow.... Radio broadcast didn't even cover open of second half until 3rd down.......

[Fisticuffs111 1,994]

If I were the defense it'd be hard for me to muster up any motivation.

Yeah but with Hoyer the O looks like crap all of the time

[HOZER 3,715]

Hoyer, Ugh. He is what I said he was. 

[ColtStrong2013 1,933]

Ebron is gone come February.

[bluebombers87 595]

Ah more dropped passes

[krunk 4,276]

Im just tired of Ebron

[Mr.Debonair 1,722]

Will we score any points today?

[LuckyHorseShoe§ 417]

For ##### sake Reich, put Kelly in, YOU ARE GETTING NOTHING FROM HOYER

[Colts Fan In L.A. 111]

They dont want this

[coltfaninnewyork 676]

Ebron bye
