Colts vs Lions postgame

[Lifetime Colt]

Kinda hard to expect much from a position group that hasn't been used for the first 11 games. They TE's played like it was opening week.

Everyone really loved when they brought Tom manning in as TE coach. He has done crap. Steichen actually tried to use the TE today. They failed

Good grief.  What a post.

He is right. How do you get a true evaluation of AR when the pieces that are supposed to help him are failing. Seems AR is the only one being held to a standard

Let's not too crazy with that.  Most of the year it's been the opposite - Richardson overthrowing open receivers.

His point was AR is the only one apparently having to live up to a standard. No one else has been held accountable. AR has not been erratic yesterday . The team around him failed

He needs to think that through a little more.  You had one bad drop, but the decimated O-line - poor play, penalties - that was the main problem.  Accountability?  Once others are healthy, those people won't be playing.  I'm not sure what other accountability he's looking for.

I totally get this. Because what does accountability look like. For AR it was easy know what that had to look like. But what does it look like for other players because you can’t bench the entire team.

This is such a bad look. How embarrassing to be thought about this way.

Depends on how you look at it. They clearly have the better team and it's not like they rested Goff with a backup QB. They didn't need Montgomery to beat us. IMO, they have the best team in the NFL right now. KC is still the team to beat because they are the champs but the Lions are playing better. There really aren't many great teams this season, a lot of parity. The Lions probably feel like your post indicated about 25 other teams, it just isn't us. In the NFC other than the Eagles, who can realistically beat them? Packers and Vikings are good. In the AFC you have KC, Bills, Ravens, and Chargers.

AR had one of his best grades as a passer yesterday.

There’s a lot of Jags on this roster but those guys listed are players the new GM can build around.

Right. My hope is that we have some good players still on this roster and a promising young QB. Maybe all a new GM would have to do is do a little retooling without a total rebuild. That would be the best scenerio.  We aren’t in salary cap trouble either. So there might not  be a need for a total rebuild
