Saves a first round pick. lol 

 

Want that FG back from opening drive??

Unfortunately the upcoming rookie class is not looking too great.

Wow, so many people took a 180 on Wentz, from he's carrying this offense with a bad OL to He sucks and is injury prone (even though he is getting hit every down)

Why did he not invest in better backup offensive linemen?

 

 QUIT  Whinning!

It's incredible how Wentz gets injured all the time. Peyton played 13 years and never missed a game, Rivers never a missed a game either. We played well today but the L is all that counts.

You forget all the time manning missed when they broke his jaw.  Oh wait it was only one play of one game 

[Patrick Miller]

Man wth happened to our oline? Wentz was getting killed out there  wth happened to our defense? So tired of watching this half * team shoot themselves in the foot.

[bestQBever]

I can't believe I was hyped for this season. What a clown

some people have hated it from the beginning and seen this coming from a mile away

Well, we were 0-2 without him starting, literally can't get any worse.

We win this game down 3 with 2:30 left if Wentz is in

Its no coincidence that both Peyton and Rivers were guys who got rid of the ball quick based really knowing pre-snap a lot times where they were going with ball. 

 

They were not QBs who played “off  script” a lot

I'll take chips for Cousins.  

At least Cousins plays every game and doesn't get injured. I will give you a Big Mac and Large Fries for Cousins, Deal?

[Hark]

This loss sucks, but this team went toe to toe with what I believe is the best team in the NFC. If our o-line can get its act together (I think they will) and Wentz isn't out long-term, they will win some games.

[Lancer1]

You take the good, you take the bad, you add them both and then you have the facts of life - peace out!

Great Job Ballard! I called it right after the draft not drafting an OT and relying on guys like Davenport, Tevi and an injured Fisher was a huge mistake. Now you have your QB injured. 

Agree. I can see taking Paye but why not trade up in the 2nd round an take a guy like Walker Little.

I agree Wentz is not the problem at all here. Yeah he’s made some rough decisions and has room for improvement but far from the problem. I think he can make a come back and be a good QB. The problem is the coaching and Oline. That’s what has lost as the first 2 games more than anything. 

[HOZER]

Would have been nice to have gotten that easy 3 points earlier. Good stuff.

Wentz played long enough to put a game away.  Eason is the one guy you can't blame for this.  He threw a bad pick....so did Wentz.  Who called plays for both guys?  Pastor *.

 

[TimetobringDfence!]

Well the team played way better. Wentz is a one hell of a team player, I hope he is back and ready for Tennessee.

[Shepman]

What the heck is wrong with these people.  How about you let me tackle you and at same time twist your ankle and leg behind you.  I bet you would just jump right up and brush it off

I’d agree but throw in the defense. Cant allow 25+ a game. Specifically our secondary is the worst it’s been in some time.

[austriancolt]

If you can't protect your QB he will get hurt. Happend with Luck, happens with Wentz now. Colts repeating same mistakes. Of course injuries are a problem, but lacking depth and doing nothing this offseason and just put a lot of good hope in guys like Tevi was trouble from the beginning.

Ah, when "if this and this, they'll WIN SOME GAMES" is rose colored thinking...lmao.   go bears, or Bengals, or bucs..... Literally any other team is worth checking out over this crap on repeat.

Yep. We need a QB that has a fast release, I never liked the Wentz trade and posted that probably 50 times in here after it happened. I never thought Eason was good either. We are screwed but I will still watch to see how this plays out. I will love the Colts no matter what, even if Curtis Painter is QB  

[Wyldhorsefan]

Well, at least my H.S. team is still undefeated.

Not Wentz fault for getting hurt.  No one says it is.  "These people" are mostly * at inept coaching and lack of accountability.  All the locker room nonsense culture crap we've been lied to about because managmt thinks we're * dumb

 

[DiogoSales]

OL just lost us a second game and the QB, Nice job for the highest paid OL!

[IinD]

Most games are going to look like this this season. Every level of the team is up down up down up down..... Can't compete with the better teams like that.... There's always next year as they say...

 

I'm not giving up as a fan, but you know what I'm saying...

Yeah, good for you.  We're not all masochists.

[Dingus McGirt]

Some qb’s would have gone back out…limp and all.

[Rolltide_gocolts]

Annnd that is why they shipped him ahhh… he played a great game tho other than that bonehead shovel pass

I’m hopeful that Rhodes can help some of the secondary issues when he comes back. Hopefully Titans lose and we start the real 15 game season for the division next week

Yes. He may play better with your OL.

 

It is very disappointing losing this game. You guys were very close.

Thought you we’re leaving?

[2006Coltsbestever]

If anyone tries to blame this on going for it on 4th down on the first drive, I will literally - that is not why we lost.

OK folks, let's hope Eason will get comfortable with the 'real' NFL soon.... I bet Wentz is out for several weeks (more than 3)

The OL didn't cost this game. The head coach did early in the game. How about that five yard penalty for an illegal substitution. Frank might be a good offensive coach but he can't call a game and he never knows when to take the points or go for it. How many points did he leave on the table today?
