Taking Taylor off the field

Not trying to over simplify but it is pretty simple. SS calls plays that he believes will work against a certain defense and he has confidence his players will execute that play. The results right now are that his players are NOT capable of executing those plays on a consistent basis enough to win games. The only question moving forward is, do we have good enough players to start to execute more consistently or not and is SS making it as easy as possible for players to be consistent. It's not just a talent thing. It's a attitude and smart thing and then the level of talent. Most of the time, the best players are the smartest players with the right attitude. How talented they are is a bonus. My point, i question our teams attitude and football intelligence as much as I question their talent. Ex.....Stopping the run is as much attitude as it is talent. A big part of why JT is JT, is because of his intellegence.

I don’t give a % if Sermon does catch better and does have better pass protection, which one is more dangerous with the ball in their hands? Blow a team out and actually win a darn game if you wanna g

Taking Taylor out makes absolutely 0 sense, he was dominating with 12 for 103 yards. He is our best player, just plain unacceptable. I am not happy today at all.

I'm sure this got discussed but I felt like it deserved its own thread.   Game 17 last year.  We need a TD to make the playoffs.  Taylor is not on the field.   Game 2 this year.  W

The problem with this argument is that the defense was actually forcing punts in the second half and we had no business going into to full pass mode to begin with. That's poor coaching and they could NOT stop JT. SS made it easy to defend  us as soon as he pulled JT off the feild and I would argue he put AR at more risk. The fact is that if JT is on the feild, it slows down the pass rush.

He is a younger version of Reich...

      Wrong. The defense gets gassed when the offense is unable to stay on the field.

      The OL has been pretty good in my books. Especially in pass-protection I feel like we haven't given up a ton of pressure. Too bad the game scripts have gone completely against us and we've had to play with a deficit pretty much 90% of the games so we can see what a more balanced pass/run ratio can do for the team.

      How to fix the colts

      By stitches · Posted

      I disagree to a degree. AR is much more of a pocket passer than a lot of people would like to consider him. He needs MORE reps ... in and out of the pocket. He just needs reps and experience. Agree with one thing though... he might benefit from changing his platform once in a while and giving the defense some deferent looks that they cannot key in on.  Somewhat agree... but game script dictates some of this. We've just not been playing with the lead a lot and we've been in position to need to throw a lot. I still don't think him sitting the last drive last week was that huge of a problem, especially after he actually dropped an easy pass earlier in the game. He's never been known to be a great pass-catching back and I have no idea why people are pretending like he is one here.   We need better TEs, AR doesn't need to force throws to mediocre TEs who slip or run the wrong routes or can't catch the ball.  Yep... lots of things need cleaning up in our defense. Some seem like coaching points, some are personnel based. I think our LBs have been big culprits in our porous run defense.
