Oh, no, no, no.  Gus gets his share of the blame as well.

I can’t because the Offense’s inability to score putting them back on the field too much. We lack talent besides Buckner on defense. Just a bunch of serviceable players after him.

Game isn’t on Gus. Offense sucks 

It’s on Gus for calling a bad game until the 4th quarter, on Downs and Pierce for not making the plays they should have, on Minshew for making poor decisions, on the OL for the poor blocking all day, and on Steichen for the vanilla play calls. The only guys free from blame today are the DL and the TEs, they did their jobs.

If they end up tied.  The have a fairly easy schedule to close.  They could beat the Colts on record.


10-7 is a must and given assumption. No one even entertains Broncos at 9-8

 

After this loss, you do the math with both of us at 10-7

Thank you…I don’t see one thing his defense did to contribute to a winning effort outside of having 11 guys physically on the field.

 

He needs to go…we are not achieving any of our long term goals as a franchise with him running our D

Gus made zero adjustments and their offense scored on nearly every possession.

How can he not share the blame?

This game is baffling! Why does Gus WAIT till now to bring some pressure against a 6-8 team with a backup qb? Shane's playcalling has been REAL suspect today... I don't trust the league anymore ESPECIALLY with the legal sport's gambling now. I'm sure the NFL wants the Bills with Josh Allen and the Broncos with  Payton coaching Wilson to helm the final two AFC playoff spots also. Just saying...

Merry Christmas everyone! Forget this game! No sense getting worked up. Next year they will hopefully be better!

True, but this season isn't over yet - we still have a better than average chance of making the playoffs and if we do, we'll be playing with House money.

    • The Colts have been in Indy for 40 years.   And we have a lot more banners in the rafters than most teams. 
    • My observations.....   SS is imo not a very good coach right now.  Perhaps he can learn but I am not liking what I am seeing.  For one, his play calling is very very vanilla.  Pretty much Frank Reich 2.0.  He was supposed to be an offensive guru.  Innovative.  New.  I don't see anything from him that says that at all.  He does not play to AR's strengths and instead seems to want to make him into a drop back QB.   It wasn't until the 4th Q that he started to play to his strengths and you could see AR's confidence rise like the morning sun.  His entire demeanor changed.  He actually got excited.  And for heavens sakes....ese Taylor much much more.  Get him some swing and screen passes.  USE THE GUY.  He is the best player on the team by far and yet is used half as much as he should be.   And let me say this.  The play right before the 2 minute warning.  The kickoff? To me SS not telling the returners to run the ball no matter what just to get rid of the 2 minute warning?  A coach should be fired for that.  That is SO BASIC of an instruction to tell your kickoff team that I am sure it is something that would happen in pee wee football.  The fact that SS failed to do that throws up so many red flags imo and is exactly something that Frank Reich would do.   I don't think he is very quick in his feet and his ability to adapt is poor.  And for a QB guru?  AR seems to be regressing.  Not progressing.   AR imo will be fine.  More than fine.  He has all the ability in the world and I really have to wonder why there are so many anti AR fans on this board.  He has played all of what?  7 games?   Who do you guys want instead as qb?   Wentz?  Rivers?  He is young.  Very talented.  Very high ceiling.  I will take my chances with him.  I really wonder though why he is not progressing with his accuracy.  Throwing a ball to a WR is something he has been doing since he was a kid.  It is almost like fielding a ground ball in baseball or shooting a free throw.  It should be a very basic thing to complete a 5 yard swing pass.  If I thought he was overwhelmed mentally or just did not have the talent to throw I would say that.  But he normally makes good reads and does not seem at all flustered by NFL defenses.  But his ball just sails.  Again, for an NFL Qb guru, SS is really failing AR in this regard.    Chicago is not a very good team and the Colts would not have probably won against many other teams but a win is a win so it is what it is. 
    • It has nothing to do with how storied they are.   Because its actually harder to get tickets to thier teams games, so they make even more on them than people in Indianapolis do.    Its simply because they dont sell thier team out to make a few bucks, because they care more about it than people in Indianapolis. They would rather go to the game.  
    • I hope you are correct. I don't feel that way though. I hope I am wrong but 6 interceptions in 3 games? On pace for 34.....
    • This entire sub-thread has been about the fans.    If the packers up and moved next week to Duluth, would those fans have the same level of loyalty as the Green Bay fans? No.
