More credit needs to be given to Steve Spagnuolo. He was the architect to the swarming ferocious man eating lion style defense of the Giants that took down Brady. Has head coaching experience from the Rams, and is the only coordinator I can think of that's ever won a ring with two separate teams. The man is a friggin' legend. -
In a trade back, maybe two? Maybe he goes corner in the first round. At #15? Definitely not. JMO. To the rest of your post, I agree. -
If the question is about why JT didn't have more carries late in the game, the answer is simple: the offense only had 20 minutes of possession, the team was down two scores, and we only called two run plays to RBs in the 4th quarter. That's fine. But the question isn't just why didn't JT have more carries. The question is why he didn't play at all in the 4th quarter. I'd argue that those two RB carries in the 4th quarter should have gone to JT, because he's the team's best RB. I'd argue that his threat as a playmaker makes him valuable on the field even if he's not getting the ball. In fact, the team talked about the idea of having Richardson and JT threatening teams in the run game, and when we had a high leverage situation to do just that, they had JT on the sideline. And I'd also argue that Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson aren't good enough in any area of the game -- catching, blocking, whatever -- that it makes sense for them to completely replace JT when the game is on the line, given that he's a far superior ball carrier to either of them. It's not a fact size competition. The problem is that you've basically made up a narrative, which doesn't hold up to scrutiny. All that said, JT is probably the team's best offensive weapon -- setting aside the QB -- and he should be on the field in the 4th quarter with the game on the line. Bottom line. And even if Steichen and JBC come right out and say that he was benched because he dropped two passes or missed a blocking assignment, I'll still believe that the best RB should be on the field with the game on the line. But at least that would be an honest answer, and not the nonsense coachspeak they've been offering so far.

Colts 34 - Bears 17 Colts put it together on both sides of the ball and the negative Nancies cry and complain because we win and ruin our draft position.
