Throwing under to open recievers hasn't hurt Check down Tommy and the Cheats

I’m not concerned about this offense. I believe Reich has a plan on how to slowly build a qb’s confidence and then let him loose. He did the same thing with Luck and it seems kinda obvious that this guy isn't going to be satisfied with a Woody Hayes offense. Opening on the road with a new qb and (maybe) a team psyche he was concerned about he went to our strength (offensive line) and helped developed the mental state he wants this team to have, hence 4th and short he goes for it. For the first time in like forever I’m thinking we have a coach who absolutely knows what he is doing

I don’t understand what the big deal is about that 4th call. It was the right call.

We had momentum.
It played to our strength. Big oline and big QB.
We would have given too much time to the Titans (who really did not manage the time they were given)
Analytics say the odds are in our favor when going for it.

I know Archuleta was over reacting to it, but he was kinda a douche the whole game and seemed to be rooting for the tits a little. But I think this is the league now, or is becoming. Lines are getting smaller and quicker, so in a goaline they can be at a disadvantage. I don’t know, to me it seemed pretty obvious what to do.

Gets the ball out in an average of two seconds. Still he got hit a lot in the Dolphins game. And they lost some oline.

Kelly cleared waivers and is expected to re-sign with Colts:

Another nice call by Ballard. He’s on the team and we didn’t have to cut anyone

The Colts have now officially confirmed the signing to the practice squad and announced the corresponding move.

In Ballard I trust.

If you think that running the offense the same way we have the last 2 weeks plays to Brissett's strengths, then you are sadly mistaken.

Look, I want the ball out of hands as quickly as possible, but that can still be done on intermediate to deep routes with quick reads and timing.

This offense is so much more progressive than anything run under Pep or Chud, and I still think that there is room to grow.

Thank heavens, I can sleep well tonight.

Too much sarcasim??

I think spreading the oppositions D all over the field so that the FAST wrs' and TALL TE's can get some space and make some YAC is a good idea. Brissett hasn't played in a year, practically no preseason. Let him figure out reading the D, put him in good situations to make good decisions and not make him the center of what makes the team go.

Run the ball. Be unpredictable. Getting 5 yards on a short dump off on first down isn't a bad thing. Control the clock. No turnovers usually leads to victories. What the Patriots do isn't brain surgery.

Glad it worked out for both Colts & Kelly. Now let’s see if the young man can work hard & stay out of trouble. This is his last shot in the league I think.
