Feels so good!  

[GoColts8818 5,001]

Not too bad for a team with a GM who doesn’t know what he’s doing, a coach who can’t coach, a QB who had a noodle arm and can’t throw, a Number one WR who can’t play anymore, and an oline that isn’t good...

[DEColtsLover36 850]

[IinD 2,146]

I'll take it.

 

Where the f is this performance each week?

 

Nice game by the team tonight.

 

Is there a Pittman thread yet? What a nice strong big target. 

[Mr.Debonair 1,733]

Very nice win’

 

Defense stepped up!

 

Special teams came thru

 

Offense kept converting. We need to fix the redzone issues. Man PA bootleg or rollouts would be deadly for this offense.

 

Hot Rod made all his kicks!

 

Rest up and stay COVID free pls.

 

Hope Kenny Moore is okay 

[RollerColt 2,777]

Our whole team played complementary football tonight, and it was beautiful. 
 

Pittman shone bright, Hines scored twice, defense and special teams put the game on ice. 
 

Great job and great win Colts! 

[runthepost 805]

Good game but we gave up 160 yards of rushing. Need to clean that up

Rivers can’t move to do bootlegs or roll outs. Next it will be why don’t we let him QB sneak  

[Colt Overseas 823]

Great team win. A true all 3 phases win. Everyone will have a smile on their faces on the plane home.

 

Hines was brilliant, but Michael Pittman emerging could be huge for the rest of our season with was has been an inconsistent pass offense.

103 from Henry. Not exactly easy to stop.

I know that. That’s kind of my point. Tenn knew that and crashed down multiple times. It would open the offense up big time 

[Stephen 1,926]

Hopefully  we can stay in first  by beating  greenbay

What happened to Kenny?

[Jared Cisneros 4,142]

Great game today and nice win! Hines and Pittman were fantastic! I think Pittman is our future no1 receiver!

Rib injury. That’s why Carrie played so much

Plus some of those rush yards were in garbage time. I thought we did relatively well against the rush. Henry is the top power back. He’s going to get yards. We kept him from breaking the game and that’s a win.

If we some how can win the next two, I think we’d all but lock the division up

When did he go down?

Some point in the second half. Late 3rd or early 4th

And I'll take a win by 3 scores over stopping Henry short of 100 any day of the week!!

[Mel Kiper's Hair 2,408]

Great win tonight. Let's take the extra couple of days to rest and tighten things up just a bit. We are in a good spot. Hopefully we are even better next week!

[PRnum1 334]

They said Rivers had a noodle arm.

 

They said "Why can't we find a better QB" ?

 

But tonight Rivers was masterful !!

 

I want every Rivers critic to give Rivers some love tonight !!

[MB-ColtsFan 1,279]

Big Grover was all over the place in the first half.  Looked like Buckner also had a good game, but I'll have to look at the tape.  I hope Pittman is okay.  Heard a lot of names on the O this week.  Rivers was playing with a lot of his toys.  Love to see it.  Looked like Pittman was catching with a lot of free space.  YAC was awesome!

Can't we ever run play action inside the 5 yard line instead of just running up the middle every time?

Pittman is fine. He was back in the game on the last  Colts drive and got an extra reception to put himself over 100 passing yards. I think he just got the wind knocked out of him.

Lol, why do you have to say that now, let me savor this. Seriously though, it shows how tough this stretch of the schedule is. We take the lead in the division but two weeks from now we could be playing them again once again looking up at them with a chance to take the division again. But agreed, I hope we can best GB, it would be huge. This conference is getting competitive getting into the second half of the season. We need wins against great teams.

I wish man. Would really help things out down there for sure but can’t due to Rivers immobility

He got a helmet south of the boarder if your picking up what I am laying down.  I’d still be down if it was me lol.

[King Colt 970]

430 yards of offense. I think only two media people picked the Colts. I admit I was upset with Rivers when he hesitated to throw to his receiver in the end zone. A couple gifts tonight but they are a part of the game. Repeat at Indy in two weeks.

Green bay  struggles versus the run

Oh that had to hurt. Well, he was still in on the last Colts drive and got a reception to get over 100 passing yards for the day, so he should be ok.

Rodgers will eat a soft zone alive.  Here's to bringing some pressure.

It happens.  The Steelers were/are a better run defense than us and they gave up 225 to the Ravens.

Doesn't mean we've all of a sudden forgotten how to defend the run.  Or that they exposed some

kind of secret on us.  We'll get things back together against Green Bay.

I don't recall seeing Dimichael Harris tonight.

Yep.  Pittman has played really well the past two weeks.  I think he’s finally getting comfortable in the offense and the NFL.  I also think having TY back helped.  He might not have had a huge game catching the ball but he opens things up for others.

[Wentzszn 10,409]

Looks like Ballard made a nice addition with Carrie to be Moore’s backup. Hopefully Kenny isn’t out to long. We still need to do better st play calling in the red zone. Those Titans special team error are pretty much why we won. Not sure we would of otherwise with how bad the red zone was.
