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.

My thoughts exactly when I saw that shit.

All in all I thought Sam was decent. I thought he would have had more turnovers than the 1 fumble to be honest. I had no reason to believe a guy with 18 career regular snaps before this game is going to take care of the ball.

Just wish we could've gotten in the endzone on the one Pittman was just short on.

1) Keep the Commanders out of the end-zone on a 35-yard field.

2) Even if they got into the end zone, the Colts still may have had some time to get into field goal range on offense.


As it is, they probably only have one chance to win the game ...... if the Commanders score, the Colts probably won't have much (if any) time at all to come back with a field goal themselves.

I definitely would have gone for 2 after the Hines TD, it made no sense no to !!

Pitt has to get that into the endzone....I think he was a little undecided as to whether to go outside or straight ahead and kind of lost some of his momentum!

He has had a week of work. Probably hasn’t taken snaps under center and you have to practice it. And that’s an RPO look and it is the most effective short yardage package in the nfl bc it forces the defense to spread out and cover multiple options.

You’ll never convince me RPO from the 1 is more effective then a QB sneak
