Not a surprise that the Colts lost
I thought they would play better though
Just a beat down. the exact thing the Colts did to the Texans last week
In a way I am glad it happened though Points out the weaknesses of the team and helps show ballard what is needed this offseason.
Really have a sign a veteran, proven #2/1a WR. You can't keep bring in guys year after year and having them fail. You need that in this league anymore. Cain MIGHT work out, but will basically be a rookie next year. Can't rely on that as the answer.
As has been mentioned, pass rush, pass rush and more pass rush. Eberflus did the best he could with that he had, but you can only scheme so much. The front four they tried to use most of today got no pass rush. ANd that is what you need against a good offense. You can't be bringing extra guys to blitz when you need them in coverage for multiple receiving threats. The Colts just don't have that right now.
Better corners and safeties. You need more guys that can cover one on one.
As good as Leonard has been this year, still need other linebackers.
Most of this is on the D still. I know the offense sucked today and should have played better, everywhere. But the offense is much closer to being championship caliber right now than the D.
The D is average and can stop bad to average offenses. As we saw today, a LONG way to go to stop elite offenses consistently.
Second half I think the Chiefs were just toying with them. I think they could have put up 40 easily if they wanted to.
