Waited a whole day to have to watch the colts get knocked around.

 

Honestly though it’s only 1 loss, we have room for improvement as always but the score got away from us against a team who’s RB is on fire! 
 

Every year, every team loses key pieces, although it dose feel us more than others.  Ughhhh the frustration ha!

 

let’s see how we rebound, it ain’t January yet! Let’s go colts!

 

More than anything football gives me a few hours to focus on a sport and team I love to watch won or lose!

 

Big love to you all!

No, it's  the 4th Loss !!! ... and probably lost all hope of a Division Title and a home playoff game.

With 5 games left if we lose 2 more a 10-6 record may not even get us a wild card.

And if it’s not the sun will still come up the day after even if we are disappointed.

I was expecting more doomsayers after that loss. Honestly I was expecting D. Henry to do well (not that well) just because of Buckner being out, not including autry and Okereke also being out. We really don't have a good backup for him. 

 

Now we just gotta hope that our players heal quickly and get off the Injury report. Not to mention how much our special teams is gonna hurt with Sanchez being out, hopefully he kicks cancers butt and will be back soon.

We split with the Titans.  Bummer is the Titans could win their remaining games:

Browns

Jags

Lions

Packers

Texans

 

I expect them to win the division but the Colts can keep the 7th spot if they go 3-2 in the last 5 games.  We need the Steelers to beat the Ravens tomorrow because the Ravens have an easy schedule ahead:

Steelers

Cowboys

Browns

Jags

Giants

Bengals

 

We could even take the 6th seed away from Miami as they have a fairly tough schedule ahead:

Bengals

Chiefs

Pats

Raiders

Bills

 

I think the Ravens are the key.   If they lose to the Steelers we will have a game lead on them, but they will own the tie-breaker against the Colts.  Head to head is still the first tie-breaker, right?  Since we play the Raiders, we could control them and if they beat Miami, it could help us as well.   Most important is the Colts winning their games going forward.

It's unlikely, but if the Jags or Texans upset the Titans, we could still win the AFC South as long as we take care of our business.

All is not lost.  This year is a big mystery due to COVID and I suspect it will continue that way.  May very well even affect the playoffs.  Stay tuned.  Hope is not lost until it's official.

Hope is not lost, but effort certainly was.

Or, they could be taken down by any of the teams left on their schedule, to include the Jags.

Big loss but with a defence built for speed, power rushers are always going to be our weakest point. That’s just the nature of the beast. 
 

We were missing our best D-lineman, our 2nd best LB, our feature RB, our starting C and LT for most of the game. You can’t be missing that many key pieces, against an offense built to beat you. 
 

It’s one loss. We’re 0-1 this week. Just get working on being 1-0 next week.

Yes it's just one loss, and the fact that was against the Titans and with the division on the line it's not even the worst part of it.

 

The worst is that we played probably our worst game of the season:

 

  1. Pass Rush non existent (0 sacks, 0 HITs) and they were pretty banged up on tackles as well.
  2. DBs played horrible, all of them. By now I already expect Rock to be bad, but Willis, Blackmon and Kenny were also bad.
  3. LaRaven Clark is absolutely terrible, does not matter who is playing rush against him, the guy is going to win.
  4. For everybody saying that Okereke is not having a great year, well, that is what life look's like without him.

 

Yes, missing DBuck, Autry, Kelly and AC hurts a lot, but even the ones playing in this game were bad.

 

This was W1 bad, cannot happen again.

      Rivers’ 68% completion percentage 2nd highest in team history

      By shasta519 · Posted

      Those NE teams were top 3 in scoring for almost a decade.   Reich's stated goal this offseason was to make the offense more explosive. He doesn't want it to just be some methodical clock control offense. And when the Colts scored this year...it was often because of explosive plays. The back half of the season was full of a huge plays...sometimes against lackluster defenses...which played a big part in that point average.   Also, the Colts were also 2nd in points scored by the defense per game...and that doesn't even include the points from short fields they provided with TOs. It's hard to expect much improvement their overall. But aside from pressuring the QB...I would argue that it isn't even needed (at least not like offense).   But on offense...improvement is a necessity if they want to win a SB. Just being a top 10 offense isn't enough. It hasn't been enough for the past 5 seasons.

      Without a Franchise QB - The window is Closing for the Colts

      It has been.  Teams attacked more in the seems and with short passing games which is where safeties eat.

      agree: I get all the theorizing about Reich & Wentz reuniting to recapture their old magic, but there's no way I'm giving up much (if any) draft capital for a guy who played like Wentz did this season--not to mention his humongous contract

      Qb for next year/QB class of 2021 (merge)

      By GoColts8818 · Posted

      Well a lot of people think the falcons will start over and move on from Ryan much like the Lions.  Even if they are stuck with him for this year the coach may want his guy to groom for a year not unlike what the chiefs did or the giants did with Eli and Jones.  With the Panthers I don’t think people believe in Bridgewater.

      Your third paragraph I would agree with and are much bigger problems than yards per completion.     I don’t mean to make it sound like the offense is perfect and the defense isn’t.  I don’t feel that way.  I, like you, think both need to get better.  On defense they need help in the secondary and pass rush and probably another starting linebacker as I don’t expect Walker back.     On offense clearly they need a left tackle but aside from that they need a third down guy like Marvin was for Peyton or Reggie was for Andrew.  A guy the QB knows he can go to on third down no matter what.  Maybe that guy is on the roster and maybe a new QB or true off season with Rivers will let him develop that chemistry with someone.  I also think they need a little more production from Doyle at the TE position and need to move on from Burton.  Lastly, they lack a true number WR hurts the offense.  TY is fading and I don’t think Pittman is ready for that yet.  That might just be some growing pains the Colts have to live with until Pittman takes that roll as I am not sure how much more they are willing to invest in WRs.
