2024: Game #8, Colts @ Texans, October 27, 2024, 1 PM ET

[ColtStrong2013]

Oh my gosh. Look at that. 3 yards to go and instead of having your qb force a throw, you run it and he gets a boat load.

There is no nuance in the play calling at all.

 

There can't be when your quarterback sucks this bad. 

[Lancer1]

If AR doesn't lead us to some kind of score this drive, it may be time to pull him for Flacco. Part of development is accountability, and he needs to learn the hard way that game changing mistakes like the pick he threw right before the Half will result in reduced playing time, especially when we have a competent backup like Flacco who can jeep us in & win games.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Run the ball and it works. What do you know 

[GoColts8818]

Shane criminally under utilizes Taylor.  He’s only doing it now because he’s been forced too.

Need more of that. Where has that been. It opens the passing game 

Th last couple of JT rushes have been off tackle.  That's how they should run him today.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

That play call at end of half is going. To cost them

As much as it sucks kind of hoping this is the beginning of the end for Ballard and co. 

Lets be real in 8 years with him constructing the team we have never been better than mid.

He put all his eggs in a very raw very inexperienced prospect that looks to be an epic fail unless we have a Josh Allen like turnaround which is pretty unlikely

It’s becoming clear that perhaps one of the main reasons he was perfectly content sitting at 4 in the 2023 draft and taking and then handing the starting job to an extremely raw prospect like AR was because it would buy him additional rope with the Irsay family, local media, certain fans since (when the rubber hit the road) he could just write off the next few seasons as “developmental experience for the QB” and take the spotlight off his 8 years of work in other areas.

Not as much as the terrible pass and pick

It’s only taken 8 games for Shane to figure out you can run the running back outside the tackles…

This colts run game should be unstoppable with JT and AR. He just is clueless 

[EasyE]

Give the ball every time right now to JT and he will put it in the end zone.

All your hot takes trashing AR aren’t going to work this game. Some of you need to look at the play calling

Worst half of qb passing since records kept in 1991. Yep, it’s Shane.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

JUst an observation, but Shane seems to be singularly focused on AR's development and not developing AR along with the other talent we have on the team.

As a side note, it’s interesting to contrast this Colts team (which has been built on raw athleticism in need of coaching and instruction to develop football skills) with IU’s team (which is built on game experience and durability).

 

Colts look like a team that is athletic, but doesn’t play football very well.

 

IU is having the best season that perennial cellar-dweller has ever had.

Interesting

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

That was like last week. Pierce lol 

[GwinnettColt]

He touched no one.  Bad call.

[HungarianColtsFan]

Well, that was quite QB-like play from AR.

[EasyE]

Refs are a joke!! Took them that long to throw a flag

[Dingus McGirt]

This is the critical possession.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

So undisciplined

[GwinnettColt]

Come on, Joe!

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

This is embarrassing 

[bluebombers87]

Throw it away. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Ha ha 

[Chrisaaron1023]

This is a fever dream

[IndyEV]

2 bad penalties by both Pitt and Q today! This team is so undisciplined and so dumb! Cant wait for the season to be over already!

[coming on strong]

yes joey flacco time!!!!!!!!!!

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Did he hit his head 

[SR711]

Ands that’s why you can’t play QB is a RB with AR..that was predictable 

[GoColts8818]

A comedy of errors.

 

you get down the field running the ball and instantly go back to throwing and then Richardson gets hurt AGAIN because he just has to initiate contact on a broken play to get an extra yard.

Cost us valuable points

AR is relieving to Flacco, he nows Flacco has a better chance of winning this game. JMO

It looked like when he got hit his knee slightly bent awkwardly. 

[IndyEV]

Something tells me AR not hurt, is he giving up???

Have to throw it with the penalty 

[smittywerb]

Why not just run in that situation?  It was 2nd and 15 to the goal line!
