[Happy2BeHere]

We don’t have pass rushers…and this front 4 isn’t working against this o line today.

You think those posters don't want to win? I would bet those same posters were positive in 2018 and 2020 if they were here. People are tired of never winning the division, only one playoff win under Ballard, all the injuries that hurt this team, and the bad coaching that we've had since 2012 honestly. It gets old after a while. 

I don't doubt it, but filling the game threads with toxic negativity gets old.

[IinD]

4th qrt is going to be nerve racking 

[#12.]

Pray for FGs.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

How does Gus just sit there and let Taylor throw with no pressure. No blitzing.

 

Why the heck was baker inactive today.

[chickenMan]

Two straight first downs where the receiver finds a spot in the zone, sits, and catches the ball. It’s so frustrating.

[Dingus McGirt]

This almost looks intentional.

[IndySouthsider]

Bradley just isn’t good. It’s maddening. Even Seattle improved after he left 

[MB-ColtsFan]

QB has an easy chair to throw from.

 

I think our D is giving up.  C'mon, guys!!!

[IinD]

How are they looking like the old Pats teams on offense..?

[ColtStrong2013]

Heinke is squeezing the ball into some tight windows this drive. We have guys in position, just not finishing the plays

Merry Christmas, have a good holiday

Merry Christmas to you! And to everyone stay safe! Can't wait for September!

[richard pallo]

How are the Texans doing?

[a06cc]

Even with Gilmore we were giving up 3rd and long all day. 

[chickenMan]

Could we get even one 5-man rush going? Just something to force Heineke to work harder for his yards

[jemack]

Crazy but l can't tell if the defense has given up or this is how they've been playing all game...

[SR711]

Worst defensive performance of the year…they have absolutely sunk the ship this game

[Patrick Miller]

Man, we are getting manhandled in the trenches. Really embarrassing 

[IndyEV]

In on the fire Gus Bradley train now!

[DougDew]

Between Robinson, Allgeier, Patterson, and JT...JT is the 4th best runner on the field today.

The Colts set the franchise record in a season with sacks today.  The Colts depend on their front getting home.  They aren’t.  Also if the Colts can stop them with this many back in coverage rookie corners aren’t going to hold up well in man to man especially with Blackman out.  Frankly the Colts are getting owned up front.  If you can’t fix that it’s not really going to matter what else you do on defense.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

It amazes me that Gus just sits there and makes no changes. Doesn’t try and blitz or anything. So gross

Does it matter we both lose and it’s Cleve, cincy, and Buffalo. Colts and Texans looking for help

Gus Bradley’s irrational rushing with 4 and soft zone have caused this

[chad72]

We haven’t lost when we scored 21 or more, don’t think we get there. Our O scoring points actually keeps our small and fast D off the field to be most efficient. If we’re trailing, it’s not the type of game our D wins, down 2 scores

Yup, this defense doesn’t work well against a QB who can read zone defenses, which Heineke can.

[Happy2BeHere]

I really really just want gus gone and Ballard IMO…just not getting enough good players on the field after so many years and gus unable to actually change things up…it’s like running the same play on defense over and over and over on Madden….like a little kid who always hits the x button over and over and over

I want two things from the defense this off-season, better tacking and to learn what a screen pass is.

I’m beside myself. I just can’t understand for the life of me. It’s as if we are intentionally letting this happen. It’s embarrassing & we look like a college team

[Lancer1]

Cleveland scored again and went for 2 - they didn't get it but still lead 28-7 and Houston's offense has yet to score a point.

[TheBlueAndWhite]

Story of this defense, an Inch shy, and a dollar short...

 

What on earth, are we doing out here today.

It’s always between the tackles exactly where they are expecting him.

Yep. Gotta go. He’s awful 

[Old Man and the COLTS]

Maybe this is a trap game and we overlooked them

Well we are going to need to score 24 to win at the least. 2 more TD’s & a stop or two

[TrueBlue4ever]

I think this is the worst tackling I have seen this year. D is definitely gassed and exposed today. Lots of work to do. The odds makers knew this was coming, crazy line movement told me this egg was going to laid.

Me as well. Can’t be giving up huge 3rd downs like that. Even with the personnel he has

Absolutely 100% true. I don’t see the burst I saw in 2021 even when he hits the gap. He’s NOT a home run threat even if he hits the gap right, now.

[MB-ColtsFan]

Need a turnover badly here or the lady with the weight problem will be warming up.

[jemack]

Bradley needs to wear a bag over his head.
