2021 Preseason Game #2: Colts at Vikings, Saturday, Aug. 21st, 8pm ET

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

We get Wentz back and our team is going to be great with this defense.

 

I hope we get Eason with the starters next week. Reich killed his mo.

Franson is having a very bad game

He looks awful.

Granson needs some stickem!

[coming on strong]

At least Sam moved the ball 3 times got into field goal range out of 4 drives Eason is 3 drives in can’t even get a first down going against 3rd stringers . Sam played against the ones and moved the ball

You have to remember no JT for this game, if we had JT the first 2 drives could've been 7 instead of 3.

I don't think they game plan for preseason games 

He might script series but I have a feeling there is very little American planning

The QB play is hurting my eyes. 

So is the play calling

Last week I saw a article how they used a spread offense similiar to what Eason would of done in college. Where is Patmon and Strachan. Granson looks terrible.

[TimetobringDfence!]

So when Boyd Flexed looking directly at LeMay that's not taunting. I don't want it to be I'm just confused. Kinda ironic.

[Colt Overseas]

Gransen just hasn’t looked good at all. I hope he can settle into this level. I remember Hines struggled in his first couple of preseason games. But Gransen worries me.

He also had Hines and pascal. They did all the work.

Banogu again

Maybe. Can't look much worse than both the other QBs though.... 

 Be like Tolzien.

Not worried

Well if that's true, pretty silly IMO.

You might be right though, because our play selection tonight looks pretty bad.... lol... 

 

How we could look so efficient last week, and horrible this week....

Agreed, he has been one of the few positives on offense. From media reports, he has been nailing down the LT position the past 2 weeks. 

You can also see the pressure from the left increase as soon as Davenport left the game to make way for the others. If Fisher isn’t ready, they should start the season with Davenport, IMO.

If he does that be a negative record

Eason with a 45 PR, and Ehlinger with a 36..... 

Getting sub 36 is really hard lol...

Agreed

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

This made me laugh.

 

 

[Colt Overseas]

Banogu is a completely different player this year. You love to see it!

Yup, the personnel packages didn't help either QB. 

The dink and dunk vs a D playing tight isn't helping either.

 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

 

[IndyEric07]

Banogu is gonna feast this year!

Oh boy, here come the armchair gms and hcs, ocs, and QB coaches lol..... Not saying you're wrong.... But this is gonna be a long week.

He had hands issues in college too.

In college, they used him as a vertical target, more or less like an X WR. He actually converted from WR BTW.

Seems we're using him more like we used Burton last year (shallow crosser guy).... Like a big slot. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Defense even without Eberflus looks so good.

 

 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Eason gets Holden after Davenport looked pretty good.

[PrincetonTiger]

[Jackie Daytona]

Here's you're spread someone wanted to see Eason run..... So far so good.....

[EastStreet]

There we go... finally a first down that looked quick and easy.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Are Patmon and Strachan even playing.

Flus coaches from the box, so likely is still plugged in as possible.

[EastStreet]

Very nice fake there lol..

Green dragging guys.

I like LeMay.... Where's the kid from Duke or wherever they gave the big UDFA bonus to at rb?

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

There is Dez.

[IndyEric07]

Keep in mind the Donks destroyed the Vikes 33-6 last week!

[2006Coltsbestever]

Hey we are moving the ball, very nice.

Looks like the tweaks to the D scheme may have paid off vs the run for MN. 

On O, personally I'd be more concerned with the OL situation than QB situation. 

I think we reached a point where both OL & QB hurt each other and the offense overall, especially when playing against winning teams or good defenses. 

 

Cousins has ONLY ONE win each season against teams finishing that season with winning records in 2018, 2019 and 2020. He'd rack up stats against equally bad or worse teams or once the game is out of hand against Good teams. 

 

Tired of everything by now, will be same story this season. 

 

Good luck with Wentz, would like to see him healthy and see if he can recreate the magic of 2017 season he had with Frank Reich. I loved his play that year and all those games until he over-eagerly went for a end zone rush and Tore his ACL. He has not been the same ever since, maybe this year. 

[Jackie Daytona]

Well executed PA!  Nice set up with a few good runs, then deep to Patmon......
