That snap was odd....can the whole OL be half a yard behind the center?  Asking honestly here.

 

There's a weird combination going on of things being a little off for both teams at times, but the refs are keying in on little ticky-tacky stuff for the Colts while letting it slide for the Raiders.

 

I have a bad feeling about how this game is going to end...

I can't see the Colts winning. Raiders want it more and the Colts are believing all their hype.

Definitely not seeing any enthusiasm from the players on offense. Punt coverage has been uninspired.  So yes, it does look like LV wants it more.

[bestQBever]

Need a miraculous turn around from Wentz in the second half. Raiders going up 13-3 here at best hopefully... Wentz just needs to not be a garbage QB

Not good so far.  Clearly having injuries, COVID issues has affected the offensive execution.

 

Did not like the long completion on 3rd and long there...need to get off the field there.

I lean to the side of they are just playing like *.  It's happened with this team before, more than once....it doesn't take covid or injuries for them to just completely drop it.

 

[RevoltingBlob]

It's beyond amazing to me the Colts have zero play action game with the run game they have. 

[Zoltan]

 

Offense is out of sync from lack of practice, just need to make it to half time and let them make adjustments. Hopefully we can get another fg before half but I'm not worried.

[LiveAndLetAddai]

It is 2022 and our overpaid QB has 8 yards passing in the 1st half, disgusting!  I wish I could make that kind of money to fail.

[Jackie Daytona]

Here's to hoping for half time adjustments.

Yeah, I think we were bound to have a game like this at some point.

Not nearly as much as we need WRs....the Cbs this year have been better statistically than we've had in several years.....

But then is it really WRs? I’ve been advocating for at least one more offensive weapon, but it looks more and more like Wentz just has tunnelvision and don’t see half the field and can’t hit his targets.

It’s interesting because Wentz was the only one keeping us in games early in the season until JT really got going. Now it’s like he’s trying to keep us out of games. 

That’s not true.  Wentz was dreadful on 3rd downs & the red zone in those games.  He contributed to us losing by holding onto the ball & taking killer sacks. He’s improved since then. Has been in a funk the last few weeks.  And the reason JT couldn’t get going because Wentz wasn’t extending drives. 

[Mr.Debonair]

We are in major need of help at WR. Its bad bad

Can you imagine the flack Jacoby would be getting for 8 yards passing in a half…?  We’ve gotta get it going on offense.

I am liking too many of your posts. Lol.

 

It is not like the Colts are down  27-3.

Because we gave up a 1st and 3rd for Wentz people hate to critizise him even when he is not good at all. There will be people defending him tooth and nail after the game 100%

[Jackie Daytona]

The GameDay threads are so fun, it's literally an emotional roller coaster in here play to play lol.

Stop them

They have been practising and playing all season. You don’t get ‘out of sync’ in week 17 due to lack of practice….

[James]

Defense doing fine.

 

Offense pure trash.

[John Waylon]

Paye-ing off.

Thank you.... Wentz is throwing to Pitt, the corpse of TY, a guy who should be fourth or fifth at best in Pascal.... We've had Ashton Freaking Dulin as WR #2 at points for extended time this year....lol.

[yankeeclipper]

Ok a sack

Colts can’t believe they can stick with Wentz right?? They have to plan to move on without him. Experiment failed

It's the scheme. Good qbs will tear it apart

Whatever is, Hope they snap out of it soon because its going to take at least 24 points to win this one.

 

After the bad 1st drive, overall, defense has played reasonably well.

[IrsaysArmy]

Need it 

[bestQBever]

biggest 5-10 minute stretch of the game right here. Get points on this 2 min drive, get points on opening drive of second half and all is forgiven

This game thread is not too bad. You should read some Vikings ones. They are .

Yeah you’re probably right. Just seemed to remember him actually keeping us in some of those early losses while the oline was in shambles.

I mean, you have half of your dream equation down pat.

Not sure what you mean?  I am a success in my field.

Let’s get a drive going to put up points. We get bal to start 3rd qtr

True. Think our team has to prove they can come back from a lead though, even if it’s just 10 pts.

 

Glad we get the ball at the half though.

[Fluke_33]

Quick td here another at half and we’re up 

[colts89]

Gotta get the 2 min drill down here.
