It's what y'all are implying, yes.

[Old Man and the COLTS]

Looks like they picking on Jones today

I'm sad we didn't jump on Baker. 

I wanted to, but I don’t think it would have worked in retrospect. Baker needed to be humbled by having to fight for playing time with the Panthers and Rams before he made his comeback.

Easy to do, he blows

[coltsfan_canada]

Jaylon Jones are doing good 

[Sputnikv8]

3rd down feels like an advantage for our opponents.  

[Chrisaaron1023]

Good lord... Get a lead . And immediately let it up...

[IndySouthsider]

I hate our defense. The formations, style, play calls and the coaching never fixing any bad form

Some new points of discussion would be good.

[IrsaysArmy]

Zaire Franklin has to be one of the worst linebackers in football. You never see him make a big play. It’s all mop up nonsense

[coltsfan_canada]

As soon I said it he got PI

Maybe so. I guess we’ll see

 

I think the Jets would have been better off keeping Darnold than drafting Zach Wilson. It is not hindsight. I liked Darnold when he was with the Jets. I thought they should have built the team around him rather than draft a QB.

The best way to describe our defense is “soft”

[BlackTiger]

get a stop

Manning had a completion rate of 56.7% his rookie year...

So you’re saying AR is Peyton Manning? Lol. Manning is Manning for a reason. AR has not shown the intangibles like Manning had.

Darnold’s problem was that he was talented but needed development. He got none with the Jets and it set his career back years. Zach Wilson was never going to be an NFL QB, his one good year at BYU was a fluke caused by the Covid weirdness

Giveaway would be slightly more accurate.  Just my opinion, though

That's the new NFL way .. give up after a couple years. How the jets gonna give up on the guy who replaced the guy they gave up on

There’s just nothing about it where you can trust them. Do they ever practice tackling?

No I'm not and it's quite possible he's not ever going to be. But AR WILL get better with experience - just like Manning did. AR brings different things than Manning.

But it’s not what I’m saying. Assume all you want but you know what happens when you assume.

They look scared to be aggressive, they’d rather be “safe” except they can’t even do that because they can’t tackle well. I know we all gave Eberflus ****, and rightly so, but at least we could tackle back then

[Happy2BeHere]

Well. Not sure we can hold them to just 3 but here’s to miracles 😊 

[Patrick Miller]

It’s sickening how many bears fans are there.

[Lancer1]

We could use a red zone takeaway of our own here

AR had 59% completion last year in 4 games. He’s at just under 50% through 3.

[colts89]

That flag on Jones was dumb. The Bears have gotten really cute calls from the refs today.

I agree, but unfortunately most people in Indiana were Bears fans before the Colts arrived and it’s run in the family since then.

I completely agree. The Jets were too quick to get rid of him. He seemed to be injured a lot, but I thought he was talented. You need to give talented players time to develop.

[Dobbinblitz]

Not sure why the linebackers would not at the line of scrimmage on that 4th down play- the whole stadium knew the play call

It's the vibes you're giving off man. Don't blame me for what you're giving.

Plus almost 3M population versus under 1M for Indy so it is what it is.

They fed Darnold to the wolves and then blamed it all on him when he failed. The Jets are a garbage franchise that doesn’t do right by their fans

[Patrick Miller]

Keep em to a fg
