I like Frank but these slow starts are a problem 

 

We've had slow starts since the pagano days and unfortunately, it still has not been fixed.

Love the Colts, but after the Houston game we have been playing like a 7-9,8-8 team. We HAVE to start faster 

Yup.

Fingeers crossed that it is only a slow start and not a total meltdown.

Ballard's leash was lengthened considerably when luck bailed..... This team is gonna take some licks, but will develop

[Moosejawcolt]

Its lack of talent not coaching.  Ebron hangs on to ball and thats 7 points.  A good qb hits Hiems and we move the ball.  I am still waiting for one of Ballard's picks to surpass where they were drafted. I will give him Nelson who is a top 6 pick and Mack....thats it

[Btown_Colt]

Slow start? Didn’t I watch the defense recover a fumble on their first drive? Didn’t I watch the offense drive only to get intercepted in the EZ on their first drive?

 

Do y’all overreact much?

Not if you are talking about today up to this point....

 

Yeah, but you're projecting a small sample.  It may be accurate, but it also may not.  It's kind of like a team scoring a FG on their first possession of the game, so the score is 3-0 after 3 minutes and you do the projection and say, "At this rate, the final score will be 60-0."  You're technically correct, but the projection is pretty meaningless at that point.

[Mr.Debonair]

Had all year to throw

[Fisticuffs111]

Good news, we stopped them. Bad news, we have to drive it 98 yards.

Hopefully he takes advantage and does a complete reboot at the QB position

[LuckyHorseShoe§]

Why do we always play down to bad teams? Like seriously, when was the last time we ever blew a team out? We shouldn’t be down 3 to the Dolphins.

[Jackie Daytona]

Maybe that stop will help.... Miami def. Isn't afraid of a 97 yd drive by us in response

Good lord.  Calm down.    It's the first quarter 

My lack of faith in Hoyer. I mean is have always thought he was awful

[Fisticuffs111]

One of the very few times a pitch/outside run works for us.

[HungarianColtsFan]

A BIG stand from the D there. O needs to start scoring.

He's never helped develop and build a team around the qb

[TheMiz]

Watching Hoyer go through progressions is a welcome sight.

[Mr.NotSoCreative]

Got the MO, lets Go!!

Fitz had nothing on that pass...luckily!

We did get away with one.  Autry was in the neutral zone.

Leonard,  Willis,  and quite a few others.   The talent is fine.   The fact we are starting Brian Hoyer is the issue.

Or at least 6.  Getting 7 off a TD is iffy these days.

[Fisticuffs111]

Man, two 1st down runs for negative yardage...

[MB-ColtsFan]

Whoever called for the TE's...you're getting your Doyle fix today.  It's working!

[bluebombers87]

Helmet to helmet?!

[ScotColt]

Where the hell is the protection at 

[Fisticuffs111]

LOL I know, it was rhetorical!

Hoyer should recognize those blitzes. That one is on him
