Been a fan for 33 years (since the 1987 season) and I can honestly say this is the most deflating regular season loss I can remember.

Since 72 here and worst for me since Ghost to Post and Ben's strong string playoff tackle.  But 2 games to get in and total beat down today; one worst regular season game.

Wentz does suck... no seriously he's horrible. I really think Sorgi would have played better. The coaching staff sucks. Allen against fisher is going to work all day long, no adjustment. Reich isn't a NFL caliber head coach. Just like Pagano he's a players guy who isn't that good at motivation. Unless we're underdogs we never win. His golden boy is exactly what Philly and the rest of the world knew he was. 

I agree Reich has stunk this game. 

Poor script to start. Horrible adjustments. Should have pulled Fisher much earlier. Should have went hurry up early. 

I've never said Wentz is elite. He's a complimentary QB that can be very good with a good OL and the right playcalling and support.

He has none of that.

I honestly think this is a team that has given up on their QB. Similar to cleveland with Baker. It's great that we have a bunch of nice guys in the locker room and it's a nice brotherhood but they aren't blind. Anybody can tell you Carson Wentz isn't a starter in this league.

What’s really sad about this is that he did this last week and didn’t learn from it

what does wentz have 40 yards passing he stinks .     its like watching paint dry eagles fleeced ballard hard

 

Eagles seem to have a habit of doing that. We gave the Eagles a 1st and a 3rd for an oft-injured Sam Bradford.

Ballard was hand cuffed by Irsay & Frank.  You think it was a coincidence that Irsay extended both (basically saddling Ballard with Frank for the long haul).  Ballard screwed up the McDaniels hire so he’s at the mercy of Frank.  He can’t fire him if he wanted to.

But it's very likely Wentz plays better if our OL didn't suck, or if we have better pass catchers. 

We’ve seen Luck play behind a horrible O-line, no RB threat, and throwing to guys like Whalen, Rogers, Nicks, Avery, Brazil, Grant, etc. and he still was able to do what was necessary to win.

 

We’ve not seen anything from Wentz to indicate he is “the guy.”

    • Thanks for this as yes, I sometimes don't adequately express my take I guess..Ha!! Happens. 🤷‍♂️ But you are correct. Cam to me as you stated was never a consistently good QB at the NFL level and that is why I was never a fan of his game. I guess it's all about how one views what an NFL QB should be or look like. I'm not a fan of Lamar either as I think he is somewhat in the mold of that type of QB. Great athlete who just happens to play QB. Outside of that Raven scheme, I'm not sold on the fact the Jackson could ever flourish. It's why over 90% of the time if Lamar is needed to bring the Ravens out of a deficit he can't do it. It's not his game, yet there are those who think Lamar is superior and he has achieved personal accomplishments. Ravens do consistently win though but it's an entire team deal as their defense is normally rock solid to compliment that run first style. We don't have that here in Indy
    • I already laid out the injuries.  You can say what you want but one was the coaches pulling him in the Rams game because they were down multiple scores with little time left, two of the others were a concussion and a shoulder injury that required surgery so that rules out toughness.  Then the Steelers game he tried to comeback and clearly wasn’t moving well and it’s reported he has injury that does cause players to miss time and there is a chance he plays Sunday which seems to be counter productive to people who want argue he’s not tough enough.  None of those involve him lacking toughness.  It’s a nonsense argument made up by fans who are tired of him being injured.     also Richardson has taken wicked hits and hopped right back up from them.  To the point people complain about the league not protecting him with roughing the passer calls.  If he had no pain tolerance he wouldn’t get up from the those hits.   yes he needs to be better at protecting himself.  Again that has nothing to do with toughness.
    • IMO the only reason to not play Richardson (when healthy) is if you've given up on him. Joe Flacco has a role on this team and that role is secondary or tertiary to the main goal of this team at this moment - namely developing AR and figuring out if he can be our franchise QB. The best way to do both of those is to play him and let him gain experience and playing time... And, ultimately to get enough snaps that you feel comfortable with whatever decision you come to about his long term prospects. And IMO the only reason to bench him is if you think you've gotten the answer to that primary question and it is negative.    Otherwise, we are doing the same thing we were doing the last 3 years before we drafted him and IMO that's the worst place to be as a franchise in regards with your QB... Where you not only don't have a franchise QB but you don't even have the hope of having one on the roster.   I can't believe this conversation is even being had. If he can play... He has to play.
    • The kid chose not to slide to protect himself and was in a really awkward position when he did get a good NFL wallop. It’s absolutely brainless to do that after getting knocked out of games and the season.   Maybe he needs to sit on the bench for another season. Let him play  play play, what, for another game or two until the next stupid injury?  He still has a lot to learn and it looks like to me we are rushing an inexperienced kid into something he isn't quite prepared for.   AR seems humble, maybe a bit more humility regarding a possible Superman complex would serve him and the Colts very well long term.  What AR IS in years 4 and beyond is what Wise Colts fans should be concerned about. And yes, like me, many here are getting old enough we Want It Now! It's an unreasonable expectation for a kid that can't throw an out that isn't a mile high, and hasn't the sense of when and how to protect himself. 
    • I don’t listen to games anymore because I don’t work on Sundays anymore. But man sometimes listening to the game is better than watching it. Kinda miss Matt Taylor getting all pumped..  I-N-D-Y lol
