5 sacks. Ouch

they're not gonna sit AR. 

 

if that was gonna happen, it would've been at half time

There is no growth showing

I don’t see the growth, that’s the problem.

 

Its like a year of a few steps forwards and several steps backwards. One has to look for a needle in a haystack to find silver linings

[TigerColt]

How big was the pick and td to end the half?  
Play calling was STUPID

He’s not wrong. Stayed in bounds, threw it in the middle of the field rather than a deep ball

[AKB]

kenny more PI was trash

It sucks when you know your team isn’t starting their best players to win.

Right??

 

Richardson gonna make a lot of people unemployed

The person throwing the ball was even more stupid.

Look man you can’t chuck it 40 yards every first down. Your offense has to be more nuanced 

[Dark_Indy]

But guys, he's still a rookie. How would he know that getting out of bounds stops the clock? He hasn't had time to develop those fine motor skills yet. 

 

Pathetic. 

 

Fumbles to end the game.

AR made that choice. He is given options very likely. Keep ignoring it though.

It's very unlikely to see massive growth from the QB position in the NLF. For every Josh Allen, you have 20-30 Josh Rosens. This will be a losing year and so will every other year under AR. He's just not a good QB.

Pressure with 3 guys wow 

But remember PFF has them as elite and I have said they have been over rated for years. It was to supposed great lines going against each other. The Texans Dline whipped them.  The strength  of this team, base on draft capital and money, can't even get it done.

Yeah but when your qb is limited so are the play call options.

Are you blind? He had guys in his face immediately

he has zero awareness the texans loaded up on the left side of the line . roll slightly to his left to buy time .  that is why teams blitz him so much he doesnt adjust to blitzes just stands like a statue

Pierce has butter fingers today

The whole Colts team as butterfingers!! Good candy bars. But terrible for a team. Missed passes missed terrible tackling that is been a issue from the start of the season.

Gus needs to teach these grown men how to tackle. Haha 

Not going to happen, either you have it or you don't..

[Smoke317]

We’re not going anywhere with AR at QB throwing to Pittman & Pierce. They just can’t get open against man.  Either turn to Flacco or start giving AD more first read reps. Let those two start working on their chemistry now.

[coach kline]

Guess who can't put a team together?

When he proves otherwise, I'll retract my statement.

There was never anything to suggest he was going to be a good QB. Crazy to draft a QB exclusively non athleticism. 

[TigerColt]

Defense did their part. Played pretty solid. Pass interference on Moore at the end was a terrible call. 
Offensive play calling and time management by the qb was TERRIBLE when it comes to game awareness. Neither the coaching or the qb has it at the moment. Not sure if you can teach that. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

The INT right before the half killed us. We only loss by 3 and people acting like we lost 21  . REFS didn't do us any favors either, we had way too many penalties, I thought Kenny Moore's PI was a pile of crap. Taylor played a good game, and defense played good enough. AR was lousy in the 1st half but better in the 2nd half. That sums up what I have to say.

[chad72]

Enough games going against crowd noise, enough games seeing different Ds, enough games knowing not to lose games with turnovers, enough games knowing to manage clock, enough games working on outs to pass catchers helping them get out of bounds, enough games leading WRs correctly - AR got NONE of these enough in college.

 

Its going to be a LONG year!!!

[Patrick Miller]

We need a quarterback not just an athletic freak.

You're not wrong. People blaming Steichen for Richardson's * decision making are just AR apologists. 

 

Steichen doesn't go out and tell Richardson to bomb passes 40 yards every play. There are short and intermediate routes available, but AR just launches it. Hes completely lost.

Okay, so let's go back to the draft.  Were you one of the ones who wanted to end the QB carousel by drafting any qb or were you in the camp of passing on a qb if it wasn't Stroud, or didn't want to draft a QB at all since we had no chance at getting Stroud.

Yes - Taylor will get 101.

 

You were close. He ran for 105. He probably should have gotten a lot more.

 

I saw the last play on TV. It was not a good one. AR should have thrown the ball.

[husker61]

Richardson rolling out to the right caused the last sack. The line can’t protect a qb when he isn’t where he is supposed to be. Not that it mattered, but just shows he isn’t close to being a nfl qb. He takes too long to read the defense and feel pressure. That makes the line look bad. He just shouldn’t be a nfl starting qb!

[Patrick Miller]

Yeah, if the colts stick with Richardson, it’s gonna suck for the next two or three years until they finally realize he’s not an NFL quarterback.

You may be right on the routes available.  I just wonder how many of those short routes are his 3rd or 4th read?  I don't know, just offering that to the discussion.

[EasyE]

I don't blame AR on this loss. Besides him being out of breath.

This offense call playing is been a joke recently.

 

Even with JT out of the lineup, we have one of the highest paid ol and can't run the damn ball??

 

With JT feed the man!!! Stupid coaching!! JMO

Good point. Several of the Richardson detractors wanted Levis. Levis has not played that much better. If Levis was playing lights out, they would be pointing out that they wanted Levis and would post his stats. Since Levis is not playing well, they only say that the Colts should not have drafted AR.

I just posted a post above giving my opinions of the game. I am logging out for a while because this forum is about to become a crap show. We already lost a close game, and I am not happy as it is, so I want to avoid the negativity which will make me sick. Have a nice night @NFLfan
