Not too many running backs last long doing 30 carries every game. I wish they would rotate more with marlon mack this season and draft another back as mack won't be back next year.

Hard to rotate with a guy who is a healthy scratch game after game...for some inexplicable reason.

He doesn't play special teams, that's why Jackson is the third active RB, as the Colts have stated.

Frankly I'd rather have a third active RB who could possibly be productive and use another guy for STs, but that's just me.

Plus, maybe I'm just imagining things, but I could have sworn I've seen Taylor/Hines/Mack all active on the same game together. Were Special Teams just not a priority then?

I don’t know this for sure, but could it be that Jackson is needed on special teams because Odum and Sendejo are both starting right now?

That would make sense.

I agree though that having Mack active would sure be nice.

Also, for the record, I fully expected a loss today. Arians is a good coach, the Bucs have a talented team, and, most importantly, you’re not gonna get any calls AT ALL against golden boy Brady.

That unnecessary roughness penalty on Sendejo was total bullshit. It was a quarterback sneak, for fucks sake. He was still moving forward and Sendejo hit him in the back, not the head.

In order to beat the Bucs and the refs today, we needed to dominate. We didn’t do that.
