I think we owe an apology to Minshew.

Nope Minshew was garbage too.

Shane gives them 3,  Gay misses. It should be 13-6.  

It should've been a lot of things, but what it actually is is bad playcalling, execution and players underperforming

[a06cc]

Josh still in sub 60’s when you want your QB at 65 or higher. He can run and stuff. That’s cool 🤣

Just now, Solid84 said:

Tell that to Josh Allen.

[Solid84]

Why can't Granson hold on to a ball?

[richard pallo]

Disappointed with this offensive play calling.

But clearly not the main reason we lost. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

It’s been a vanilla offense all day.

Why * run it there

[Old Man and the COLTS]

Ok if JT is healthy why is he not in on that play

You’re misunderstanding my point..they could’ve had Stroud with that no 1 pick
 

If Ballard is as good of Talent evaluator as everyone says, don’t you think he has a better chance of hitting a homer on the quarterback selection if he has all choices available to him as opposed to when two of the four top rated quarterbacks are already off the board?  
 

Maybe the question you should be asking is how is selecting Stroud working out for the Texans?

Going into the draft all year teams had Young as the top QB in the draft.  Again, the Panthers did what you are saying the Colts should have done, how did that work out?  You are wanting to play a hypothetical game of what if’s could haves with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight while ignoring a team did exactly what you are saying the Colts should have done and are in a worse position than the Colts because they don’t have those picks.

I thought the announcers made a good point. They never put their hands out and let it hit their chest.

Especially after a time out.  They look lost.

Now we have to do an onside kick if we score…great job.

[IndyEV]

You could see it in his face.

13/19 = 68% this week

18/23 = 78% last week.

Did I say otherwise?

We have to guys that can be a run threat and we see no misdirection? It’s crap 

[2006Coltsbestever]

Shane's worse game as coach. Keep Taylor out for no reason than run it on 3rd and long. This team is a joke.

[IrsaysArmy]

My God this team is unwatchable. Why is Taylor not in. Why are giving this guy handoffs on 3rd and 10. I’ve lost so much interest in this team the last few years it’s honestly sad. 

[richard pallo]

Offense lost this game.  Horrible game plan, dropped balls everywhere.  Giving up 16  did not cost us the game.  Reich did.  I mean Steichen.

[Lancer1]

I get it that one of Shane's responsibilities is to develop AR, but to do it with JT on the sidelines while we're in the red zone is not exactly the proper way to do it.

the exception isnt the rule ....    how many QBs tried to fix their accuracy and failed ?   josh allen is the only QB i can think of who became accurate .

Because Goodson is the pass catching back and the Packers would never him coming on third and 10 because Shane is so much smarter than everyone.

He's proof that it can be done. I responded to a guy saying it couldn't be coached/taught when it clearly can.

Still at 63% and let’s not go there with the Dolphins game. Of course that all led to one passing touchdown. And they limited his attempts. Knew you’d try that  

[AKB]

well at least Cross looks decent... right?

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Why haven’t we seen more like that from AR?

[GoColts8818]

The bad thing is if the Colts score here they will keep it close enough that the coaches won’t feel changes are needed they were just one or two plays away…

[krunk]

Never seen such a struggle to get in the end zone against a D that's been leaving you some plays.

They ain't really been shutting it down or anything.

He was 56.2% in college. If you can't be happy with 63% + Allen's (and AR's) running ability, that's a you problem.

[Colts1324]

I don’t know what to think. The more i watch this team - I’m worried we are actually just not very good across the board.

 

Taylor is our only great player. 
 

Our offensive line is solid but they are paid accordingly taking up cap space. Nelson gets called for a lot of flags. 
 

AR - needs a lot of time

WR - drop a lot & not great

TE - bad

K - bad & overpaid

Defense - line can’t do anything. Injured

Safeties - bottom 3 in league without Blackmon 

Corners - bottom 5 (especially without JuJu)

LB - average at best?? 
 

 

I love these Colts but maybe we have been expecting more than we should have. 
 

We should have brought in a new DC & Ballard should have spent 

[Happy2BeHere]

Too little too late Colts

Man throw the ball 19 times game one and 23 game two. All made so he’d have easy completions 😭😭😭

[Solid84]

Pierce TD!

[John Waylon]

Too little too late.
