rush, can't cover an aging sick mule on the way to the glue factory.
Offensively, Tolzein is the limited, pedestrian QB we thought he was
and our vaunted WR corps can't get separation. On a positive note the O
line played better than I thought it would and the tandem of Gore and Mack looked good. BTW, why would you not keep trying to get to mack in the flat?
It's code blue.
Pretty much the same analysis I had in the first half. Except the Rams called
in the dogs in the second half and still cleaned our clock. When the club has
bought out, that's really the final nail.
It's been a long time since I've been this embarrassed to be a Colts fan.
I've followed the club for decades, including its days in Baltimore. I'm
not going to tell you how old I am, only my IRS auditor and shrink know
for sure although I can tell you I am younger than Albany Ed. What I can
also tell you is that that I haven't felt this discouraged since the '82 season.
I'm not giving up on Ballard but there's a lot of pain ahead and Pagano is
gone, probably sooner rather than latter.
