Game isn’t on Gus. Offense sucks 

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

I think both can be true.  The up the gut runs were killing us too.

[Happy2BeHere]

Offense sucks. We need playmakers we only have 1 apparently and he is out today. JT is still “out” this game clearly 

[richard pallo]

No WR screens today.  We usually run them multiple times in a game.  What a game plan.  Lol

[John Waylon]

This game is a lump of coal for Christmas.

We have AFC tie breaker against them too

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

[IinD]

Wow Mallory was WIDE open..

[2006Coltsbestever]

That last pass by Minshew was just a desperate pass. Bad pass but trying to make something out of nothing down 13.

[compuls1v3]

Need a TO D.   Let's get it!!!

Irsay getting the new banner ready:

 

"Steichen - coach of the year through 14 games."

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.

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.

We've run a handful of them. They just haven't been successful.

[compuls1v3]

or not......

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

[Lancer1]

We're about to be down 30-10.

[Patrick Miller]

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

[compuls1v3]

hmmmmm.... an outside run.... maybe we should take some notes for next game.

[ArmchairQB]

Well,  obviously the line was due to Braden Smith being out.  Freeland getting his lunch eaten

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

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I don’t even care who wins the jags game. This was so pitiful today they don’t deserve to make playoffs or win the division.

[Shive]

Franklin has been really bad today. He's missed so many tackles...

Like I said before, I’m not worried about Bengals 

 

Raiders and then the last game vs Stroud will be all we need for the AFC tie breakers to be in our favor 

I agree. If were to lose, it was today. This is disappointing but not the end the world. This makes next week a must win though.

How many times are you going say goodbye?  LOL

[a06cc]

We lost today purely on the offense

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

How can he not share the blame?

Next 2 weeks. 2 wins and you are in with a little bit help

[Happy2BeHere]

Good thing this loss comes the day before Christmas, at least Christmas won’t let me down tomorrow.

[Architects08]

Colts aren’t a good team. They beat up on the bottom feeders of the league and get exposed against mediocre teams. Should have tanked. 

[IinD]

A fg and it's still a 2 possession game...

Had to check in!

[chickenMan]

I gotta get to work, have a merry Christmas everyone, see you all next week

[bluephantom87]

 

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...

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.

I like the early timeout.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Steichen had some really creative run plays against Steelers. Nothing today. Same thing running into Atlanta defenders.

We lack talent. We have no one beside Buckner 

[coach kline]

I don't even want to hear about playoffs.
