That was the case early on last season too when we were 3-3-1 when the offense was somewhat respectable and then the wheels came off. We should give another RB a chance.

that 3-3-1 is the ugliest 3-3-1 i've ever watched

Story of the game so far is OL generating very little push in the run game and it showed up even worse on that 4th & 1 conversion. Eagles can do it because their OL can generate that push. It is going to be a long season if this kind of push continues with a run oriented offense.

I have been hard on the Olne, but remember this. This Olne has been under a lot of pressure in the Reich years due to qb play. Its, the same story today. Teams r playing the run and will until Richardson can beat them with his arm. When that happens, lanes will open up big time.

Yeah, now pass protection is breaking down and lanes aren't opening up to throw mainly because they can crowd the line of scrimmage and no outside WR routes called or Jags made to pay. Remember, one of Matt Ryan's best games came with a lot of outside WRs catching the ball at home vs the Jags. Yeah, Steichen's trust in AR, right now, is a little bit blind at this point for a 4th down close to mid field, IMO. It is only heroic on paper.

The line looks good so far.  Jax have a good DL and they aren’t dominating 

we look good passing wise. it's the running game where we aren't really winning. we are either getting little push, no push, or they are pushing us in the run game. all runs of gain have been edge runs (raimann, smith, TEs,) our interior is still struggling somewhat

Do you know Pierce averaged about 14.5 yards a catch last year?    As a rookie?  
 

He had a very good rookie season and some here have no idea.   

Yeah, i watched every game. It's the drops and mistakes that people are concerned about

 

specifically this preseason, and so far this game

    • They make a heck of a lot more money than I do. Even those on the practice squad are making life changing money.    To be completely honest, as an educator I feel more like trash nowadays. One of those moments where I feel like I’m failing as a man, a husband, a father and a teacher. I would absolutely never consider an honest working NFL player as trash. 
    • Food for thought… Once again, you continue to be your own worst enemy.     The Colts overall TE room is loaded with young players most of whom have had very little playing time for a variety of reasons.   So if you want to say the room might not be ranked high, that’s fair.    But you don’t say that.  You call them “trash”.  Why you feel that’s appropriate is a mystery.   Whenever you try the internet tough guy approach it typically blows up on you.     No one is trash.     You ignore the last three years and the QB and HC carousel the Colts have dealt with.  All of which has impacted the Colts weapons, especially the TE’s.   Ballard has publicly talked about how promising he thinks his TE room might be.   Woods, Granson, Ogletree, Mallory and MAC.    Only MAC is questionable and that’s because the salary hasn’t matched expectations.  But the first four?   All are promising.   They’re just young and looking for opportunity.  But they are NOT trash.     There’s a difference.     
    • Some of the coaches?   That sounds plural to me.   To the best of my knowledge the focus in this community has only been on one coach who may not be maximizing the players the Colts have.   And that’s the defensive coordinator.  He’s been a hot topic of conversation.  But I’m not aware of any other coach being viewed in a negative light. 
    • Insane that this has been going on since 2015. From what I gather it’s due to the NFL making Sunday Ticket too expensive on purpose so only a select amount of people can purchase it, forcing most to use CBS and Fox. 
    • Many are calling the Pacers pick of Furphy as a huge draft steal. Most projections had him in the top 20 of the 1st round, and even a few felt he could be as early as top 5!    That young man could be a huge contributor for the team next year.
