Agree that the running game wasn't going early on, but it did start to get some momentum going in the 2nd quarter before Reich decided to pull the plug on it for the game.
Either way, throwing the ball 26 straight times isn't a good idea for the Colts. Especially after they've turned it over a couple of times during that streak.

NOt making excuses for him, but your take is not exactly fair. One INT was on a desperation play, and the other looked like the defender grabbed Pittman's jersey to get into position. One of the fumbles was on Fisher getting beat by the defender. I don't recall the other fumble. Wentz wasn't perfect, but he wasn't the reason we lost today.
