Colts vs Steelers post game


GoColts8818

Recommended Posts

Have to add two more points:

 

Ballard:  he deserves his credit.  The depth showed up.  Bortolini, Womack, Lammons, Flacco, and probably some others.  But this game showed why depth is important and Ballard is apart of putting that on the field.  We give him a lot criticism, but we also have to be there to give props as well.

 

Shane:  I respect the call to not put AR back in.  Send a message.  He has to protect himself.  Watching that play over, he could’ve slid.  He had the first.  I respect the call to teach him a lesson.

No it’s facts. He had the lowest completion percentage in the league at 48% before the game started. He also leads the league in interceptions thrown by a QB with 6.

 

Flacco was accurate and didn’t turn the ball over. I get the “Anthony is still a developing rookie” ordeal but to deny the fact that he hasn’t played good is just silly. I’m not calling him a bust, but to me Flacco should start. Why would you not keep starting the better player? It’s also better for Richardson long term if Flacco starts. 
 

Ballard is fooling people with this notion that the only way to play is to get better. Tell that to Jordan Love.

 

AR has played less football than your average HS player.

 

He needs reps.

No way Richardson could be that low after those two drives.

Its crazy seeing Smith with that low of a score when he contained Watt when he lined up on Smith's side.

Maybe it's because he played so few plays and had a fumble. That probably brought his score down and he didn't have enough good plays to offset it because he wasn't out there for long.

It's a small sample size obviously, but so far, the new and depth CBs are grading well. Colts 2024 season CB grades: Moore 76.5, Womack 72.4, Lammons 66.5, Flowers 65.9, Jones 57.8, Brents 54.7.

Moss wasn't just looking for money...he was looking for a place he could start.  that wasn't going to happen here without injury to JT.  This isn't madden.

 

Thank you for your expert medical opinion Dr. King Colt

It's not a medical decision rather a business decision. Pro sports is a business not a game.

Shane needs to treat AR like a man not a boy.  This is the pros.  Not high school.

This defense is going to be really good when we get healthy and a few more games under our belts.  They could really be something special down the stretch.

I just saw something really funny while rewatching the end of the game. On the 3rd and 22 play a steeler offensive linemen executed a perfect textbook TACKLE on Latu. The steelers should probably move that guy to the defensive line, he can tackle pretty good.

Not sure if this has already been discussed but his form looked a LOT sharper yesterday which led to accurate passes. 
 

Seriously appreciate AR’s ability to identify his weaknesses, learn from them, and apply them quickly after some specific coaching in that area prior to the game. This guys has a strong desire to win and urgency to get better. The key is body holding up to let him reach his full potential. The moment he shows that he’s about to get over a bump a injury crops up 😕

Makes no sense.

Only thing I can think of is Smith got lots of help from the tight ends yesterday.  Maybe they got the positive grades for the job done on Watt.  Not suggesting Smith played bad at all, I thought he played as well as you can play but what do I know?

Richardson's grade was dragged down by the fumble where he received a grade of 17.5 weighted in to his overall grade. His run grade also graded out to 46.5

PFF dinged Smith for pass blocking against the Steelers. He graded  out at 41.3 ; impacting his overall grade. Smith only allowed 1 hurry and 1 pressure all game. I thought he played well. He received a lot of TE blocking help in this game.

He didn’t play in the Ravens game last year at all.  That was after he had the concussion vs the Texans.  Still the overall point is health is the major concern with Richardson.

 

You're absolutely right. It was the Titans game he went out for the season and the week before the Ravens he got concussed.

Olne deserves a lot of credit for AR being able to set his feet for the throws.  They are really playing well in the two games I have seen.

Looking on social media seeing every Steelers fan complain about the refs causing them the game is hilarious!! Such terrible cry babies they are! Acting like we didn’t get screwed over by not getting calls either

That roughing the passer on Mitchell was clearly a late hit.

I've always felt the Steelers have been one of the dirtiest teams of the last 20 years, going back to when Hines Ward would launch himself into defenders heads.

There were blatant bad calls on both sides - for example, no late hit call on AR on one drive was very significant.

Yeah, it’s just funny seeing all these verified accounts blaming refs for the Steelers loss when they were going to lose either way. Imagine if we had our calls go our way also lol. People are going crazy on twitter about it.

The Refs gave them a head start on the very first drive. Calling roughing the passer was bogus. Then there were no calls too.

Regarding the REFS, the Steelers have had them in their back pocket since the 70's. The Cowboys got cheated out of the SB in 1978 when Swann tripped over his own 2 feet and wasn't even touched by a Cowboys defender. That was a huge PI that set up a score and don't even get me started about 1995 or when Pitt played the Seahawks in the SB. Plain awful.

Did you guys see what Fields said about the snap that went over his head? It turns out it wasn’t just a mistake by Steelers. He said the colts defense was doing presnsp stuff and it caused him to be indecisive and the bad snap.

    • Wow, that sucks. It must've been pretty bad cuz MPJ is a warrior.    It's hard to believe how many players/how much of Indy's cap is hurt this year.    Here's hoping Mitchell steps up and sheds his whole scared to get hit persona. 
    • Probably twice I can remember but never missed a game.
    • I would honestly trade pittman and draft someone that is A a better player more dynamic weapon and B cheaper.
    • Gus will get fired and nothing else will change.   After the Colts finish with a top 15 pick its going to be the same thing.   Ballard will say “Look, we didn’t get it done. I will hold myself accountable and I didn’t give us enough to do go win games. Look We had some tough injuries. Things just didn’t go our way. I still believe in these young guys.”   Ballard mentioned in his earlier years that he will spend to get the team over the top. Once he believed the Colts were close to a championship he would be willing to risk more to get some guys to put it all together. Problem is, we haven’t even been close because of his poor decisions and stubbornness.    Okay rant over.    
    • Guys I will take the blame for all the injuries. I don’t know what I did to get cursed but all of my sports teams this year are made of glass. I’m a huge braves fan and we lost our star outfielder Ronald Acuna for the year and our star pitcher Spencer strider for the year.  That’s not all, our all star level players Ozzie albies ,Austin Riley , and Roy winner Michael Harris, lost over 50 games each with injury.   Oh and our best pitcher and this years most likely cy young winner got injured and couldn’t pitch in the playoffs.    I feel like I’ve seen so many injuries this year on my favorite teams that I’m some how causing it , like medusas gaze lol.    No but seriously I think this could be a blessing in disguise. Pittman wasn’t exactly lighting the world on fire and I think our young guys could use the experience of stepping up into a higher role in the offense. We will see how it goes.
