2023 Week #2: Colts @ Texans, September 17, 2023, 1 PM ET

[2006Coltsbestever]

31-10, great stuff!

[Lancer1]

Gay drills it, 31 to 10!

[smittywerb]

Shane learned!  Lol. Take the points.  

[bluebombers87]

Initially thought we were out of FG range and wanted them to go for it. But, take the points was the right call

[richard pallo]

Last week was very winnable too.

There are some weird scores around the league right now.

Do tell?

[bluephantom87]

Growth from Steichen to take the points. Not the Philly offense just yet to go for it on all 4th downs...

I love going for it but we have to win this game so take the points. 

[JlynRN]

Good drive. I know Minshew wanted to go for it, but smart to take the points instead.

[rockywoj]

I very much agree with taking the FG, just not so sure about burning a timeout to try and draw them offside. 

[HOZER]

Last week, close game, early, he goes for it. This week, good lead, goes for points? Huh? 
 

Im glad he’s learned though…

[Happy2BeHere]

Yea glad he took the FG there!

[Solid84]

Let’s go D!

I expect to see that a lot this season. He's still learning game management so he'll make mistakes and show the following week that's he's learned from it.

[bluebombers87]

I’m ok with these run plays. So long as we stiffen up in the red zone

I will just say this. Colts  did the right thing hiring a offensive coach. Bears can’t develop their QB and defense looks like crap.

brady had gronk too lol.  and good defenses.  And Wes welker.  And more.  
 

and don’t get it twisted, Brady would LAUNCH that ball if you gave it to him.  Brady was great at taking what defense gave him.  But if it was there and he had the player to go get it, he was going for it.

 

also, let’s not compare brady to minshew lol.  What are we doing here?

did not compare them

[HOZER]

And it has begun……

Too soon

[bluephantom87]

 

This Colts team has a chance... Could've beat the Jags with ANY type of run game last week.

[Solid84]

Ugh. 

[coming on strong]

texans are really a poverty franchise i actually feel bad for them

[Solid84]

Someone cover Nico Collins!

[IndyEric07]

39Baker has been trash also today!

Huh?

 

“Poverty”?

[#12.]

Step on someone's throat for once, D.

 

I just remembered that the last time we were in Texas the defense gave up 32 points in the 4th quarter.

[Patrick Miller]

Apparently our secondary so inept, they cannot cover Collins

[IndyEric07]

Dayo offsides again!

[Patrick Miller]

We need a turnover

[Solid84]

Stop with the penalties!

[richard pallo]

Keep rushing four.  And can’t win against their 2nd team OL.

[HOZER]

Penalties Penalties Penalties

We probably have the worst secondary in the league

[Indianapolis-Colts-Fan]

Corners are 10 yards off the WR

[Indyfan4life]

Kelly out with a concussion?
