Colts @ Jaguars Game Day, September 13, 2020

[Happy2BeHere]

Two passes Hilton should have had and usually does, just wasn’t our day.

"Indy has now lost 7 straight season openers and 6 straight road games to the Jaguars." 

 

WOW 

[Coltsman1788]

Any one without blue colored glasses could see this one coming.  Rivers is who he is and the Jags own the Colts in Jax.  Period.  

[needanoline63]

We just lost to the jags. Woah

[JlynRN]

Welp, what a way to lose to some scrubs in j-ville.  Just sad !!!

Fixed?  The players are mostly there, the coaching seems lax....

He's inactive

I know that. I obviously meant moving forward 

[Architects08]

I'll start it. Tank for Lawrence!

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

RIvers looked washed up. We still can’t stretch the field. This was truly a epic failure. Defense just looked horrible. If this continues next game at what point do we just say let Eason play and get him reps. I expected defense to be a little off but that was didsgerous. Also where was Hines the second half. Once again Reichs play calling goes down in flames the second hAlf.

[Valpo2004]

I am seeing reports of the torn achilles on Mack confirmed.

[Aces101]

Old Man Rivers.....not the answer 

[DontEverGiveUp]

Bad game all around.

 

Terrible defense, run game disappeared, 2 picks, TY drop with game on the line.

 

I assume most of the blame will go on Rivers though.

[Happy2BeHere]

Colts fear that Mack has torn his Achilles.

Relax

[bluebombers87]

Eh. Wasn’t expecting much from this season or game. Knew it was gonna be a bit of a rough go.

 

However, CJ Henderson pointing down at Hilton after the play is bush league stuff.

They never play like scrubs against the Colts though.  Not in Jax.  No surprise really.

Well that’s something to cheer me up.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

At some point we have to say Eberflus needs to go. Also Reich has no imagination in his offense.

[Aces101]

Why throw at CJ Henderson?  He’s their best defensive player as a rookie

[Dogg63]

Good thing we kept Wilkins

[chad hugo]

Minshew was 19/20 for 3 TDs...our D was non existent 

[Trumpet_Man]

Well Rivers deserves "most" of the blame for this loss. Those INT's were UGLY but at one point the brother was 20/24 with only 1 INT. The D gave up 1 wide open TD. That was the difference in this game. Hopefully Mack is not hurt as bad as reported.

 

Keep the faith Colts fans.

Ever flus has no excuse now. This D has talent but lacks coaching to peak their potential 

[Coltsman1788]

Never was a fan of signing Rivers.  This is exactly what I was afraid of.  

[Malakai432]

Definitely an embarrassing loss.  Minshew 19/20 173 yards and 3 TDs looking like Tom Brady.  They're going to need to significantly improve by next week against Minnesota who also looked like crap this week lol. . . 

[Coltsman1788]

Colts fear Mack tore his Achilles.  No official confirmation. Dude just can’t seem to stay healthy it seems.  What a bummer. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Reich giving up on the run like he did was horrible. He is still making the same coaching mistakes.

[Coltsman1788]

Ballard gets a lot of praise from around the league and Colts fans but his actual on field results are not that impressive.  I believe the Colts have an overall losing record under his regime.   He has had what 3 or 4 years now?  Our defense is still suspect.  Our defensive scheme is terrible.  Minchew was unmolested for most of the afternoon and had a ridiculously high completion percentage against us. 

[Thunderbolt]

This team suck, QB suck, Coach suck, play calling suck., defense suck.  Wheres the 20 mil dollar investment on defense, no tackles, no show. We'll have the #1 overall pick for a QB at least....

How dare you talk about the great Chris ballard lol. The man has had enough years to produce, I like Ballard. Think it’s more of a coaching issue. Although the Buckner trade is not off to a good start

[Kangaroo]

I just wonder how long before Brissett is back starting. I have said before that Rivers isn't the answer, and today does nothing to change my mind.

Should have just kicked that field goal in the 1st quarter to go up 10-0. No reason to gamble on 4th down there. That bad decision shifted the momentum and changed the complexion of the entire game.  Went from the verge of a possible blowout win to another dogfight in Jax.

I know it’s akin to blasphemy around here.  Lol.  I like Ballard too but he isn’t above criticism.  Colts have been mediocre on the field under his watch.  That’s fact. Roster building is about more than looking good on paper.  What the team does between the lines is how he should be evaluated.

Brissett is not the answer either... he is a .500 QB or less.

Our best QB is on the PS.

[teganslaw]

Here it comes: posters wanting to fire coaches, Colts getting the #1 pick in the draft, Rivers is washed up, etc. etc. It's just one game. It's almost funny how predictable this forum is after a loss.

Lol, there's one in every crowd...  

[Architects08]

Once Mack went down the run game stalled. Hines is awesome and had a great game but he wasnt a threat to run in between the tackles. Not sure why Taylor wasnt used more often. I mean that's why you drafted him right?

 

What was with the oline? I wasnt watching them closely but Rivers was hit or under pressure a lot. 

 

The defense was disappointing. I didnt see much of an impact from Buckner. Failed to get consistent pressure and our secondary was abused. 

 

Just a bad performance from all phases of the team. Let's hope it's just rust.

Oh FFS.

 

If that was right, he wouldn’t be on any team’s PS.

You thought that with Rivers the defense would look like carp (Minshew was 19/20 for 3 TDs) and Hilton would drop easy passes?  Rivers would make Reich call a poor game.
