We need to blitz Stroud a lot, he panics under pressure.

He’s actually PFF’s highest rated QB against the blitz with a grade of 88.7. Our line was a turnstile last week but hopefully they’ve tightened things up and give him some time back there in the pocket 😏

It’s their Oline that doesn’t handle blitzing. Apparently it’s been a problem last few weeks. Same thing with colts when Strausser was here.

The o-line has been the biggest disappointment, especially when it comes to penalties (Tunsil) and poor play in general (Green, Mason). I knew Strausser’s tenure in Indy wasn’t great but sheesh, and I along with other fans had no choice but to give him a chance, but sheesh. He’s gotta go.

My guess is he will unless there is some set back. They will probably put Carlisle’s on IR to make room. I am confused why Mcgrone is questionable when he hasn’t been activated to roster. Maybe it all depends on Buck.

 

 

Al-Shaajr being out is a huge loss for the Texans as he is there best LB. Add that Nico is out, I think we have a good chance of winning this. Robert Woods will be the deep threat but isn’t Nico, the Texans passing game was kind of lost last week. I imagine they will be better playing our scheme.

If Nico being out is a big deal then why is most the forum picking the Texans to win. I get it, it makes a difference but if it was a huge deal the whole forum would be picking Indy. One person predicted 42-13 Texans, another 28-13, another 30-20, apparently, they don't think losing Nico matters.

Mainly they don't  trust gus Bradley  to take advantage  of nico being out and I don't  blame them

Holy hell… I had no idea Strausser went to Houston. May God have mercy on Stroud’s soul.

🤣 my guess he is gone if they don’t turn things around. Fans are saying same thing about what colts fans said. No communication and they can’t handle the blitz. It says a lot once Saturday came in as interim they got a little better and were elite the next year again.

and for those who were wondering about McGrone being active

 

...The Colts also activated linebacker Cameron McGrone, who has been on injured reserve since August with an elbow injury. McGrone was a special teams regular in 12 2023 appearances...

This is one area where I have to agree with you. We haven't given up 4th quarter points because we've played bad QBs. That's an easy one to figure out.

 

The defense will have a real test this week.

Colts have a habit of making bad QB look good so they deserve some credit

Maybe Meco can poach one of the 49ers offensive coaches or basically anyone else at this point 😂

Did he eat us alive the first game? They don’t have their best WR right now.

Pittman is also not available.  That is worrisome.

Well it is prediction time. I am 5-2 on the season. I'm expecting a good game today win or lose. It's too bad Richardson can't play every game how he started the steeler game or finished the Dolphin game, but that's just not how it goes. We need 4 qtrs of good consistent football from him, but you are not going to get that from a qb that only has 7 starts in his nfl career. Anyone remember Peyton's first 16 starts? Yea, he threw for a lot of yards but had a lot of head scratching throws that were either incomplete or interceptions. Richardson needs to play and I'm sure the Colts are going to keep him out there. We are better than the texans pretty much across the board other than qb. We need to stop making things easy for Stroud(c'mon Bradley stop it with the soft zone, large cushions on third and 10+). Mix in some blitzes, allow Jones to play man,( I haven't seen very many comments on here about how good Jones has looked when in man coverage). We have scored 10 fewer points than the texans and have given up 10 fewer points than they have(but according to the Ballard bashers on here the texans are sooooooo much better, hahahaha) It's the nfl, even though, as I said at the beginning we are the better team across the board other than qb I'm going to with the texans today, but I am hoping Bradley get's it going with numerous blitzes and disguised coverages mixed in and we can win a close one. texans pull it out, though and we will be subjected to all the ridiculous Ballard bashers on here afterward.

Where did you see this? Is he questionable or out?  I saw he did not practice Friday, but read he was just resting. Did something change?

What are you talking about? Pittman had no game status Friday when the latest injury report came out.
