Bullets are free, and are your friend. Thank you Frank see what happens when you run JT more than 10 times see what happens when you have variety in the RZ see what happens when you make Mo a primary read Great clean game by Wentz even though he was pressured a lot. 2 TDs, no turnovers. Not flashy yards, but highly efficient and no mistakes. Very good at spreading the ball around. 10 different pass catchers. Hoping the chemistry between he and Mo continue Pass catchers are coming into their own Not perfect games by everyone, but great overall and good individual catch %s Pittman 6/8 again leads the way with 50+ and his chemistry looked great. Mo is a man sized weapon. Please keep him in the game plan. Write it down coaches.. 2 TDs vs some elite DBs Pascal solid 4/5. Campbell 2/2. And a couple key catches by Doyle and Dulin DL looked better. Turay (2 sacks), Grover, and Lewis all had some very nice moments. AQM and Defo too quiet DBs still looked suspect even vs a bad QB performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patagonia Chris Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Jacoby Brissett is largely incompetent. It’s amazing this team was close to making the playoffs with him and a 46 year old Vinatieri playing key roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Poulains Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Can we play Brissett every week? Running game was good. Some creativity with the handoffs too. Some nice wide sweeps. Is there a reason we don't involve Cox in the passing game more? He's an absolute menace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indyfan4life Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Red zone offense is still a huge problem. Campbell and Pittman need more work with Wentz. We’re lucky we didn’t play a better team, because this defense still got worked. Next to zero pass rush. Injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restinpeacesweetchloe Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 They figured some things out on offense today. I don’t care how bad the dolphins are. Confidence is everything. This is what we need from Wentz. Big plays in big situations and run the ball. Who knew throwing jump balls up to 6’6 guys would make good things happen. Pryor should be the RT until smith comes back. He looks so much better in the pass game. Once Wentz figured out what he could do on those ankles the offense was pretty good.

GoColts8818 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 All the “Wentz is the problem” people can be quiet now. Hope Kelly isn’t hurt too bad. Noticed Davenport back in there at the end. Unless Pryor had an injury why? The offense took off the moment the Colts made that change. What do you know running the ball for a team that is designed to be running team worked well and backed the pressure off. Honestly Frank called a good game today but it got ugly inside the 10. I think it’s in their head at this point. Defense played a great three quarters and then disappeared in the fourth once someone told Jacoby he was throwing down the field even if he didn’t want too. Another solid outing for Reed. He’s not replacing Big Q long term but he could be the mix to replace Glow once Glow’s deal is up. revenge of the tight ends. Both Doyle and Mo made some nice catches today. Will be interesting to see if they have reversed course on a Mack trade. It was interesting he got the carries to close out the game. Leonard is clearly not 100% he just can’t run very well at all. Best game the d-line has played all year. Pittman continues to develop. I still think he has another step to take before he’s a true number one but given the lack of player development under Frank I’ll take what I can get. Even though they got it the 4th down call in the first half was dumb and the play calling after it made it even more dumb. A win is a win but the Colts benefited from playing a bad Miami team with a back up QB but when you are now 1-3 you don’t care who you beat. the Colts will not be the first team to go 0-17 in NFL history! At least not this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastStreet Posted October 3, 2021 Author Share Posted October 3, 2021 Folks let's not forget that Miami has some elite DBs..... Wentz and the pass catchers did incredibly well against them.

colts89 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I honestly think we overall played at the same level that we did vs the Rams. The only difference is that the Rams up to this point of the season are considered by many as the best team in the league and we lost to them by 3. Sure there are plenty of holes on the team, but we have damn good talent on the roster as well. We shouldn't forget that. I think we will do pretty well the rest of the season if we can get some injured players back and hopefully keep our guys healthy. The lack of TC/practice has obviously hurt despite what the Colts team/players have said, but this week a few thing went our way on offense that didn't the last few times. Those are signs of improvement that I hope continue. We for sure need someone else beyond Pittman that can be relied on in the pass game consistently. TY will provide some of that, but Ballard needs to get that guy next year if he wants this offense to get to the next level. Our Defense was fantastic today until the very end. There didn't seem to be any obvious mishaps/communication issues that caused big plays like we saw versus the last few weeks, which I think is the main culprit of why our D looks so inconsistent at times. We had several consecutive series vs the Rams and the Titans where our Defense 3-out their supposed strong offenses. When they did score, they almost all seemed to be due to a DB releasing a guy when they shouldn't of have or a LB being out of position. If they make sure to cut those miscommunications down, this Defense has looked damn good at times. Big test next Monday though. Lewis and Turay had good days. They looked like they meant business today. Our Offense is good if we establish a run game. Our OL are far, far better run blockers then they are pass blocking, especially with all the injuries. Loved seeing Wentz look to his TE's this game. Luck and Rivers favorite targets under Reich usually seemed to be the TE's, so I think that Reich's offensive scheme is made to really use those guys heavily in the pass game. Not sure why they weren't used as much the last few weeks. I really hope Kelly isn't terribly hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuedinHatfield Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Really wish we could see more of the Taylor-Mack combo with the offensive line healthy before we decide to let him go for peanuts. Mo needs to be utilized way more. Wentz is not the problem. Yes I said it. Still a lot of holes on D and we’re lucky the dolphins are that bad with zero pass rush. It’s a needed win .

Dobbinblitz Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Rodgers played soft, lacked ball awareness, and played with too much cushion . At this point I would rather see Marv Tell be given a shot. I was suprised he was not picked on more than he was. Good road victory for the Colts!
