As I pointed out yesterday, the Colts' defense outscored the Texans' offense in the 2nd half yesterday by a score of 2-0. They also sacked DeShaun Watson 5 times, including the one for the safety. While they were fortunate that the Texans coughed the ball up in the final 2 minutes of the game, they were excellent overall, especially considering the fact that the extremely elusive DeSahun Watson was on the other side of the ball ...... the Colts' defense made their own luck in the 2nd half yesterday a lot more than they were lucky.

Yesterday the biggest play of the game was made by the Texans center, and Walker for being in the right place at the right time.

Yesterday's game was not played in a vacuum of one play, or even one series of plays. No game is.

If the Colts' defense had not held the Texans scoreless in the 2nd half prior to that fateful fumble, that fateful fumble would have been a moot point.

As far as I'm concerned 2 punt return TD's called back were the biggest turning points in the game

They weren't TD, but they would've given the Colts a high probability of scoring if not called back on ticky tack at best calls.

Exactly, I feel bad for Hines.

In hindsight, I think that this may wind up being a good thing for the Colts going forward ........ good teams often win games in spite of bad breaks and/or bad calls by the referees. I think that the Colts did this against both the Packers and the Texans. That is one reason why I am hopeful that the Colts might actually be bonafide contenders. I think that it is still too early to say for sure, because they have also showed that they are capable of shitting the bed. But all in all, I am very pleased to see them sitting at 8-4 overall with a win over the Packers and a split with the Titans.

Jon Gruden: I Just Don’t See any Change in Philip Rivers

(By Myles Simmons)

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...philip-rivers/



"Philip Rivers will finish ya. This guy will go 60 minutes,” Gruden said. “And he’s so good at rallying young players, which is hard to do when you’re close to 40 years-old.”

“He doesn’t miss many things. He reads your mail before the ball is snapped,” Gruden said. “That’s when he does a lot of his best work.”

Pretty damned good block by Rivers on the end-around, even though the play resulted in no gain.

(3 WEEKS LATER)


That was an expensive block.

Fortunately he has been able to play well through the foot injury that he sustained on this play, an injury which will eventually need surgery in the off-season.
