That catch by Pittman was pass interference.

We sure did take the long road to get there. 
 

I think this would have been a much different game with Richardson. Wouldn’t have needed OT. 
 

With Houston beating Jacksonville we’re suddenly back on even footing in the division. 
 

Just in case anyone was wondering. 

Colts are on better than even footing they are in first place by a game.

So after Minshew stepped out of bounds for the safety, Paramount + died for me. I missed what happened after the kick off. How did we get the ball back so quickly? I thought it was over there.

This game should of been over so many times. Craziest game I have seen.

That game was a lot like the playoff game when we had Peyton and played the ravens. When Vinny hit five FG.

They put 2:03 on the clock 

 

Guy fair caught the kickoff with 2:01.  So one play two minute warning.  Next play time out and then a third down stop with a declined penalty on the Ravens that stopped the clock.

Hilarious how in the predictions thread people were all "We have a chance to win because Minshew starts over AR!" Now the same people are like "If we had AR we would've won it easy!"

 

Anyway..

 

Positive

  • I think the defense had a great game overall with minor misshaps of course, but then you don't keep a team like the Ravens scoreless for 5 quarters.
  • Franklin had a good game and so did Ebukam, Paye and Brents.
  • Pittman and Downs had good games! Pittman with a gamechanger-play.
  • Moss was great.
  • Minshew had his moments in the first half.
  • Matt Gay! 4 kicks over 50 yards! History.
  • Spirit! The guys wanted this win!

 

Negative

  • The Oline needs help. Maybe it's enough Kelly comes back, but our QB had guys near him instantly.
  • Smith was BAD. He really struggles with speedrush and then he had those two penalties today.
  • Minshew is blind on his right eye? Didn't see Hamilton coming. Ever. He also had some missed opportunities for big plays today.
  • ST had a few Bengals (The censoring won't let me spell that with a U :funny:) late in the game. Lucky for them the defense stepped up.

I left out Ebukam on my recap and that was an oversight on my part.  He might have been the best dlineman today.

Colts win, I don't want to hear how Ravens had injuries, that crap happens every time we have a bigtime win from the negative Nelly's = BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH. They still had Lamar/were at home even, and we won with a backup QB and without Taylor The Simpsons GIF by KiwiGo (KGO)- Jacks got their rear end dusted and so did the Titans, we are in 1st place in the South.

Defense stepped up and got them off the field like they did for most of the game.  That's what happened!

Good:

 

Zach Moss has played really well

Anyone want to complain about the contract Ballard gave Gay now?

Brents is going to be a player.  I thought he wasn’t ready.  Well today said otherwise and I was wrong

The secondary was much better in general

The defense played well but has to figure it out in the fourth quarter.  I am not sure they are wearing down or what

Minshew (he will make both lists).  He played well for a backup QB but looked like a backup QB and showed his limitations

oline run blocking, Nelson had a big game in general

Pittman and Downs.  Some might not call Pittman a one but he’s sure good.  Extend the man

The deep ball finally arrived to this offense shame they only hit one

EJ Speed, he might not grade well but he makes big plays, although he got away with one at the end of OT but the Racens got away with one Pittman earlier in the game so it balances out

Overall the Colts went toe to toe with maybe the best team they will play all year on the road with a back up QB, back up running back, and back up center.  For a young team that’s still finding their way you have to be happy with that regardless of the end result

 

 

Bad:

 

Minshew did a horrible job identifying things pre play and without Kelly (for those that say they don’t see the value in him) the Ravens had way too many free rusher on pass and run plays due to not being identified (which is what Kelly does) and if blew up too many plays that was potentially the difference in the game

Pierce had a monster drop late in regulation

The Colts didn’t score much off turnovers.  Turnovers are nice but if you don’t score on them they don’t help you much

Shane’s play calling on their own one was too aggressive.  Run on first or second down to get yourself a little room.  It had been there all day

Braden Smith did not have a good day with two big false starts and missed block on a sack

containing Jackson, that’s had for any unit but the Colts were extra bad at it

What a bad decision by McKenzie on that punt

Where were the tightends?  Olgetree has one catch and I think Granson had a couple of targets but that was it

Way too many missed tackles

Jay Feely.  I am not sure he understands football and needs to not call another football game again.  Go for it on 4th and 7 in the first quarter at mid field?  Kick a 67 yard field goal at the end of the game in bad weather and give the Ravens a chance at a return?  Constantly saying teams were in field goal range when they were 10 yards beyond the line to get too line, including the drive tucker came up short on and the drive in OT when the Ravens punted

 

Bonus point

At least the Colts aren’t the other horse team in the league, giving up 70 to another NFL team.  Yikes…

Lol..I hope Jared enjoyed that Broncos game!

I was thinking of that game today too! Such a classic. First year with Vinny and helped get that Super Bowl win.

      Potential/Average/Concern

      By RollerColt · Posted

      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.

      BREAKING: NFL loses HUGE in Sunday Ticket Lawsuit

      By RollerColt · Posted

      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.

      By RollerColt · Posted

      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.
