Official Colts throttle the Jests and I hate late games thread
 

Colts win big. Jests new QB goes back to obscurity.

I have a feeling Sam Ehlinger will get some playing time this game. Especially if Wentz continues to audible out of running plays .

Reports are he checked out of 6 JT runs the last game

9 game winning streak starts tonight....Colts win big!

If that's true...

This is practically the season for this NYer. Some of my closest friends and family are Jets fans and losing this game is not an option. If the Colts win this game, I have some serious ass busting I can do. Lose it, and I'll be pissed off for a long, long time.

I don't wanna just win, I want a thorough ass kickin.

Where can I read those reports and what were the results of the checkouts?

It is.

And while I agree that Reich has to take the blame for not telling Wentz to just run the damn play. The fault of the lack of running the ball is Wentz trying to be a hero.

Thanks for the info Puck. If Wentz checked out because he wants to be a hero, then Reich needs to get all over his ass. If he checked out because the D was keyed up to stop the run, then OK. That's why it would be interesting to know what happened on the check outs. Were they successful? Were they failures? Half and half? Who knows?

Those were the RPO’s Reich alluded to after the game. It’s not a situation where Wentz audibled from a run to a pass, they were read and react plays that just happened to favor throwing the ball.

I’ve said I don’t think Wentz is a winner, so I’m not exactly one to defend him. However, without context of what plays he checked out of and the defensive alignment I don’t think we can say it was him playing hero ball. Identifying the defense and getting into a favorable play is good QB play. But we don’t know which it was without more information.
