2023: Week#7 Browns at Colts, October 22, 2023, 1:00PM

[OLD FAN MAN]

thought the coach would bring out some 2 rb sets. two top rbs need to be in the game at the same time

This is about Oline crapping themselves with crucial penalties and Minshew not taking care of the ball. 

Minshew is not as strong as AR to withstand DL contact, just that AR’s injuries came against impact to the ground. 
 

Our OTs can’t handle elite pass rushers 1-on-1 and you’d expect a TE to get an effective chip but good players make plays.

 You gotta stick with close to a 2:1 run pass ratio for this unit to be effective and avoid the costly TOs

They actually didnt throw that much

With our OL issues, unless one of those RBs is an elite chipper or pass catcher in space, not a good idea

[krunk]

We gotta invest in whatever we can so Garrett can't tee off.  Stay away from stuff that allows him to tee off on Freeland.

[CoachLite]

We knew this year was going to be a learning experience, and we were right.

[cdgacoltsfan]

I'm not sure how they do it, but this stuff is scripted. Hear me out:

Last week..Adam Archuletta says...we haven't heard anything from Josh Allen...boom..strip sack fumble ...turns the game

Today...Adam Archuletta says...we haven't heard anything from Myles Garrett...boom...strip sack fumble..turns the game

What are the odds?

[BProland85]

Myles Garrett is obviously the difference in this game. Shame on Steichen and the offensive coaches for not helping Freeland out when they moved Garrett to his side.

Well it is “entertainment” accordion to the IRS status of the league so sure

[Lancer1]

Do you all think Cleveland might try an onside kick to start the 3rd? They could really put us on our heels if they can pull it off and widen their lead.

Was Dungy the play caller?

 

No, Peyton was, but as explosive as they could be, in big spots like these - end of half moments, etc. - they generally played it smart and safe, especially after about 2003.  That came from Dungy.

[chad72]

We have a whole half to go, quick throws, max. protect formations and a 60-40 run to pass ratio should keep us competitive till the end 

[RollerColt]

Is it really surprising people that Garrett is making plays? He’s been doing this for years and all season long. He pulverizes Burrow every time the Browns play the Bengals.

[Dobbinblitz]

Th colts would have scored more points if it was not for drive killing offensive line penalties. Steichen has had a good game plan today. 6 point game and the Colts will have the ball coming out of halftime. It’s not like this is the Lions game.

You really can’t blame coaching he gave him help with the TE who did a good chip block to give freeland time to set and the play was going to the other side of the field. You really can’t help a lineman any more. 

How bout u don't line up in shot gun near the goaline. U line up under center and run the ball.  U play for points and Steichen doesn't appear to get that

Why, when their D ended on a high note??

I like Steichen. The end of the half were largely due to bad choices. It happens.

Tom Moore was the playcaller. He would give Manning three options each play. 

[krunk]

We can win this game just got to make the right adjustments to keep the OL from getting unnecessarily exposed

in the passing game. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Colts have 250 yards on offense and down six. Good playing calling bad decision making by Steichen.  17 points given to browns.

How bout not having Minshew in shotgun around the goal ine and run the ball? Knowing u have a rookie tackle on an elite pass rusher should affect your play calling. 

 

Yeah, hand the ball off against that line would have worked so well. 

 

You do realize what the Shotgun formation is for, right?

[chad72]

WR screen please

Our OTs can’t handle elite pass rushers 1-on-1 and you’d expect a TE to get an effective chip but good players make plays.

He may take sacks, that’s what it is, but fumbling the ball - TWICE - is carelessness. Especially when he had the chance to throw it away on the second one. 
 

Fries needs to stop with the holdings. Stopped drives twice. 

[chad72]

Lucky!!!

YES.

Speaking of Ballard picks, when’s the last time Quitty Paye got any sort of pressure on a qb? Yet another Ballard 1st round bust!

 

9 minutes ago, stitches said:

Yes it has. But it's not because of Steichen's playcalling. It's because of talent discrepancy between their DL and our OL and our QB has the awareness of a capybara. 

[Lancer1]

Time for our defense to start taking over the game!

That’s a heads up play by him

This is a ridiculous take. 

 

Steichen didn’t tell Minshew to drop the ball twice.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Is Shane going to do something to help out on Garret lol. Why you throwing that pass on his side.

[Derakynn]

Just literally aren't even bothering to block people anymore.

[richard pallo]

We have them where we want them.  Lol.

We got ball back in 2nd half. Run and punt it. Cleveland offence is a disaster. Their defence is their offence.  U r playing for field position.

[csmopar]

New drinking game, every time Garret makes a play, take a shot. Everytime he comes free unblocked, down the bottle and send the bill to the OL

Lol, you’re reaching for things to blame Steichen for now..
