We now have 2 statement wins, and Minshew (with the help of Gay) has authored them both!

The win over Houston was big too because they appear to be playing much better, that was a combo of AR and the Stache!

Can’t deny, CJ Stroud is showing he belongs in the NFL. What a stellar young man he’s becoming. 

[Callidus]

GG, see you all again later this year 🍻

 

Also GL with the moss controversy after paying Taylor lol

[SwedishColt]

I hope AR is okay and that he will be back sooner rather than later but huge props to Minshew. Way to step up when your number gets called. Next man up mentality even at QB is exactly what you need when you have a young Rookie as your nr1 QB.

we are in a poly relationship bud

Did they say it was raining?  Lol  First rain game victory ever in Indy.

[2006Coltsbestever]

I wanted this game bad, I can't stand Tennessee. Now I can finally call my uncle up and boast a little. It has been a while. I just hope AR will be ok in a week or 2. If not, Stache can carry us for a while and with Moss and Taylor - that is a hell of a duo.

[Old Man and the COLTS]

Texas loses 

[ADnum1]

Atlanta just won

[Lancer1]

Falcons kick a gamewinning field goal at the gun to beat Houston.

[JlynRN]

Great way to end the game with a pick from Blackmon!!  Woooohoooooo!!

2 gigantic things Ballard has done, trading for Moss and signing Stache.

Let’s also give him credit Buckner, Stewart, Franklin, Speed…

What a nice way to put it! Great post!

[SwedishColt]

Im a very new fan of the Colts. I have only followed the team since 2020 so the Titans have been the biggest boogey team for the Colts during my fandom. 

 

The only other win I have personally watched was 3 years ago in a prime time TNF game at their place. 

I remember sleeping very restlessly during the game and waking up from time to time and turning on the stream on my laptop and going back to sleep. Keep in mind prime time games for u guys are in the middle of the night for me here in Sweden.

 

Sorry for the random story but basically just wanted to share how happy I am about todays win

[2006Coltsbestever]

Houston lost too. Great Sunday.

Thanks! SKÅÅÅÅL my Viking friend! 

 

As a Swede the Vikings are close to my heart so I wish u guys nothing but the best despite the shaky start to the season.

[New Zealands #1 Colts Fan]

Can't believe we didn't kick that field goal in the 1st half......... oh wait never mind

Thank you. I don't think they will win today but you never know.

 

Congrats on the win. Moss looked great!

 

[rjbalchusa]

Good win for the Colts! JT who? Moss is a horse; glad he's on the Colts. AR is going to have a very short career if he doesn't start protecting himself better.

Jags currently own the tiebreaker so no but we are both 3-2.

[Colts1324]

The great news is that we should have Raimann & Paye back next week. Both big additions 

[2006Coltsbestever]

Big game next week at Jacksonville! Whoever wins that will have a huge upper hand in the division. The status of AR is in the air but Stache is legit good when filling in. Moss and Taylor are a deadly duo.

We never got an update at the stadium. What's the word?

[Aces101]

Huge win for the Colts!! Factor in losses by Titans, Texans, Bills, and Ravens makes the W even better…..

Vrabel didn't take the 3 either. It evened out. 

Completely different circumstance though, mid 4th quarter down by 4, vs first half up by 4. Vrabel’s choice to go for it was understandable, though in my own mind I debated it, being that taking the 3 would put them down by only 1, needing only a FG to take the lead.  But even if he took the FG, being that the Colts went down and got the FG, Titans would still need a TD, but for the win instead of a tie. Titans going for it late was much more sound, than Colts giving up early 3 gimme points to go up 7 in the first half.

 

Ergo, it doesn’t really even out.  Colts could’ve made it significantly less contentious by taking the first half easy 3.

 

I just can’t agree with leaving easy points on the field, in the first half of a game.

We can "correct" that next weekend! 

 

I really hope AR is okay, and that he plays the majority of our plays under center, but just think if we go into Jacksonville and beat them with Gardner Minshew!

Regarding AR not sure. With AR it might just be a AC Joint. Carr only missed 1 week with that and played well today. Jags won so they are 3-2 like us. Tennessee and Houston 2-3.
