To steal a line from the great Norm MacDonald, this offensive line has been called everything from shit to fucking shit.

A time out had been called.

How? Nobody is going to take these contracts. We are fucked beyond belief.

I don't think they should blow the team up. Just blow up Frank.

Younger legs at QB made all the difference. Now just call some better plays.

If we had an OC that knew how to put players in position to succeed, I think we'd be ok-- even with this shit oline.

There were a few good play calls today, and we had a screen play work.

When there are 10 in the box at the 1 yard line, you probably don't want to run up the middle.

The next to last possession, on 2nd and 7, if Ehlinger keeps to the outside, it's a first down and game over.

Frank's not going anywhere and neither is Ballard. This is who we are and who we'll be.

Hard loss to swallow. I thought the Colts had earned a win. But Frank
played not to lose offensively and defensively down the stretch and he lost.
The fumbles were killers. The offensive line is crap. seeing Kelly and Nelson
on the sidelines yukking it up while the game was in the balance made me
want to throw a beer through the screen.
On the positive side I thought Ehlinger looked really good, looking forward to seeing more of him. Pierce continues to develop nicely and Cambell is quietly
putting together a nice year.
Hard to think this team isn't playing for next year what with the new QB,
Lousy O line and a D that hasn't been as good as advertised. I think Frank is
gone and it wouldn't break my heart to see Ballard gone too. He's drafted
some good players but he almost seems to revel in leaving gaping holes
in the franchise.

Would you have gone for it on 4th and inches from the 35 yard-line ???

That wasn't what I was suggesting. I think 2 straight running plays to start
was too conservative. Going for it on 4th, while tempting is probably a no.

I had a sinking feeling because of this when we punted the ball.

Oh, well.

The one time Frank should have gambled he plays it conservative and it bites him on the ass! Good call C&O!

Sure sounds that way unfortunately.
