I knew he'd be at the bottom. I wasn't able to watch the Indy game so I had the Bengals game on TV while listening to the Colts.
Burrow was checkdown Charlie yesterday. Patriots just kept him contained and under duress all day. No rhythm, no connection with receivers. No running game, no tight ends...
Their offensive line is 2015 Colts bad... Yeah... That bad...
Our D finally got tired of it and our safeties in Sanders and Bethea played lights out. Safety play has been critical for lots of SB winning teams - from Seahawks to Patriots to Broncos to recent Chiefs teams, look closely at those SB winning rosters. We DON'T have the safeties on the roster that can make game flipping plays, IMO.
For those complaining about going for 2 instead of kicking the extra point, Steichen prob had to factor in that he has a backup kicker, so that prob played into the decision. He knows what he has in Shrader more than we all do.
Anybody remember 2006 when Jax ran for 365 and the talk was “get rid of Meeks”, “fire Polian”, “get rid of Dungy”, “trade for some players”!!
And Dungy’s response? “We just have to be a little sharper, we have the players”.
The result that year? The Colts win the SB. I’m not saying that is what’s going to happen but the D line will be fine: I saw so many plays where they were so close to a TFL and credit Mixon, Shroud and Collins, they made more plays than the Colts did.
Didn't think Joe Burrow would be there. Any HC would jump on the chance to replace Zac Taylor - both Texans' OC and Lions' OC would get to the front for that job. Zac Taylor has underachieved, IMO.
