i got you

we are a chris jones weird penalty and terrible decision by russ away from being 0-4-1

and the tie was against the texans who are probably the worst team in the league


we aren't winning shit this year. making the playoffs would be a bad thing

[omahacolt]

just want to reiterate that we got destroyed by the jags. completely blanked. we were down big to the texans in the 4th and probably should have lost that game.


this is the worst offense in the league.


there is a valid reason to be down on this team

I am one of those negative nancies you cued. For me it isn't just this lousy year, this has been a holdover from last year and worse. I hope you positive folks are absolutely correct and I am proved wrong but I cannot muster another round of belief that the the same people will somehow, after 5 years, see the light and learn how to put a competitive team on the field. I see the bright spots on this team and would glob onto them if we were in the middle of a rebuild. We are 5 year into a rebuild and now seem to need another. Sucks.

I keep looking for the backlash every time I come on here. Maybe after the Jax game, if they come out flat and get waxed again.

Good post. Basically the only way the Colts are capable of winning is if the other team is shit (like Houston) or they royally fuck up several times in the game (KC and Denver). Otherwise we'll lose and probably get blown out.

And the loss to the Tits wasn't unlucky either. We turned the ball over 3 times. They turned it over 0.

Raimann needs technique and experience. He was good in the run game. Granson does block better than people might think.

Also, DEN front is pretty impressive.

The OL overall, with the exception of Pryor, seemed to settle down and play better when Pinter came in. Also, I didn't see Pinter getting blown up like Kelly was, but that could have been the broadcast just not showing it.

I said that it was unlucky to a certain extent. The Colts' turnover in the 4th quarter when they had driven deep into the opponents' territory was somewhat unlucky, particularly because it was made by the otherwise sure-handed Jonathan Taylor ...... it was his only fumble in 81 carries so far this season, and it was only the 4th fumble that he had lost in 645 carries over his career.

I was more directing it towards CletusPyle who said it was an unlucky win to begin with, so I probably should have quoted him instead.

I hear what you're saying, but if you're -3 in turnovers you're in all likelihood going to lose unless you're significantly better than the other team. Which at this point we probably can't say that about the Colts vs. any team in the league.
