This is so bad. Like usually I can watch a bad game but this is just straight trash. I’d be embarrassed.

The D must be so *.  

[Zoltan]

Colts defense getting tired, Patriots offense gonna start making long drives.

[coach kline]

I'd take an interm coach at half time 

[a06cc]

Ballard has to go at the end of the season. The roster is ultimately on him especially the offensive line.

Sam does not look comfortable out there. His face before that sack looked almost panicked. 

 

Belichick is known for doing that to young QBs. 

[JediXMan]

So who’s going to be the new scapegoat this week lol.

[Dobbinblitz]

How many other NFL franchises would still have Reich as head coach at this point.

The O Line will bounce back under a new coach (Hopefully Sean Payton).  I think they’ve quit on Frank & the current O Line coach. We all remember Nelson having to remind Frank to run the damn ball with Taylor.  Time for a new voice of leadership. 

Nelson could try doing his job instead of getting 0 push.

Exactly 0 but please dire Ballard too

Funny that the GB/Det game is 0-0 still! But theres been good O and D on both sides unlike this crap!

[Indy87]

[Coltsbluefan]

Not sure who they’re tanking for,there’s  not a great QB in next years draft.We better draft the best O- lineman in the 1st round.

[Happy2BeHere]

Ballard has done a poor job at best all these years…and Reich he is not the guy capable of improving the team. Ship them both off

They haven't ignored it.

 

They just don't have an answer. It's on Ballard as much as it's on Reich and Strausser. The talent they have sucks.

Unfortunately even if we fire Strausser  and we should

Who are u going to replace him with Stop I know half of u would volunteer but it’s a system and we went with it I doubt u can go outside the organization at this point to bring in a new system that’s for next year 

[Solid84]

LET’S GO D!

How many times will this question be asked today?

It is. It’s completely embarassing. Just wanted to point out Matt wouldn’t have made a difference. 
 

This Oline is the worst I’ve ever seen. 

Matt hasn't played near this bad. I am not bitter at all but so many in here were so excited to want Sam, I wasn't, I was hoping he would do well of course. I expected this though. Hey maybe we will get a top 5 pick.

I’ve been wondering that for a long time now.

Very true...Sam Ehlinger, welcome to Matt Ryan’s pocket the first 7 weeks.

 

 

Nice thing is the kid's not turning the ball over.

 

He's going to need to back the Pats defense off by hurting them with his arm.  Frank needs to open things up at this point but we'll see how much he trusts the QB.

[Happy2BeHere]

reich and Ballard

No it won’t. Its Ballard ignoring two spots that has led to this mess.

I don’t think I have ever seen a GM crash and burn as bad as Ballard has this season.

Matt wasn’t the one. He was a fumbling /Int machine. Sam isn’t the one either. 
 

Give Sam some playing time, blow it up and start over next year

Matt Ryan would be in a body bag if he was playing today.

Woah that should’ve ended badly for the WR.

NO FLAG ON THAT ??????

Our entire O Line has regressed.  The players don’t get a pass but it’s their coaches’ jobs to have them ready on game days. Frank & our OL coach are failing right along with our players. Shot rolls downhill. 

[IinD]

Drive it down the field and score and we're back in this...

[John Waylon]

Man. I drafted Pittman in the 3rd round of fantasy this year.

Matt was turning it over. We would be down a lot more then 13 points if he was the QB right now.

Biggest issues....

1. Reich
2. Reich
3. Reich
4. Strausser
5. Strausser
6. Ballard

 

D has played pretty decent this year. 

 

[JlynRN]

How was that not a penalty on the pats player?

Where? Nelson isn’t fully healthy, Smith has taken and step back. We need a C, RG, and LT. There is no talent or depth there at all.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Big Sam has not only has Jim's number on but has Adam's number on. Pretty cool stuff.

[coming on strong]

sam is a thrower on the run why not get him moving out of the pocket . frank is calling the matt ryan offense with a couple more rpos
