2-8

LOL

 

[Insein]

Anti climactic

 

[travdogg]

That was dumber than anything Mac Jones did.

 

[massraider]

Benched Mack in the 2 minute drill.

Retty much an indefensible decision

Zappe LOL

 

[Leroy Hoard]

It's Zappe Time!

Times up.

 

[Osaurus]

Too bad Wentz was already picked up

 

[massraider]

Geez

 

[Alex P Keaton]

That was dumber than anything Mac Jones did.

and now we know why Mac wasn’t benched

 

[efactor]

That was dumber than anything Mac Jones did.

Did you not see his INT the series before?

 

[FairWarning]

Can’t say I’ve ever seen a fake spike, only to throw it into triple coverage.

 

[Desert_Power]

Love the balls on the fake spike call at least.

 

[Loipz]

Zappe

Jones

Spider-Man meme.

 

[SoBeDad]

Minshew could be a Patriot competing with someone for the QB job in 2024. They have lots of cap space.

 

[massraider]

That was weird. Like rookie coach stuff

 

[karl.Racki]

Love the balls on the fake spike call at least.

Dumbest decision this year. Just spike it.

 

[SoBeDad]

Love the balls on the fake spike call at least.

Shades of Marino and Tarkenton in the same game.

'threw it into a team meeting of Colts'

That’s funny

 

[Alex P Keaton]

How are the Colts 5-5? These are both mediocre-to-bad football teams.

 

[SoBeDad]

From twitter, leaving Germany without a QB or head coach!

 

[SoBeDad]

How are the Colts 5-5? These are both mediocre-to-bad football teams.

The Colts beat BAL and almost beat CLE. Some good players on defense, the oline, probably good coaching.

Like the Steelers being 5-3 with Canada as OC.

 

[Lansdowne]

Mac threw off his back foot again on that red zone INT. He continues to throw off his back foot and make mistakes. The personnel around him sucks, but he’s not improving his own mechanics either.

Colts have an amazing O-line and great play calling. Getting a lot of mileage out of the talent they have.

 

[Bad_Mo2]

This game will really get Europeans into the NFL. Jesus C

 

[SoBeDad]

Those who have Jonathan Taylor should feel good given it was a 10-6 game. Bill can still coach defense.

So basically unlike the Pats, they are well coached? I haven’t seen a single Colts game this year until today.

Hoping NE would be very interested in the Carolina 1st round pick that Chicago owns.

Pretty amazing since they have started the backup qb most of the season and not much from Taylor.

 

[JohnnyU]

That 3rd down catch by Downs was the play of the game and gave the Colts breathing room. It changed the complexion of the game IMO.

NE currently has the 1.03 pick, pending today's games. With a NYG loss it goes back to 1.04, unless Kyler beats ATL. The NE-NYG game in 2 weeks could be pivotal.

That might be worse than Car Chi

Amazing OL is pushing it. Its above average, probably around 10th or so in the league. Play calling has mostly been good but was kinda garbage today. Pretty much just slamming Taylor into the teeth of the defense over and over, no screens (which have been super effective all year for them) and little PA.

I'm expecting Arizona to win some games with Kyler at QB. That said, its very possible NYG don't win again this season.

It could be pitiful, too.

Guaranteed pitiful

You change QBs at halftime, not the last drive of the game

And not for Zappe. Maybe for a vet like Strock.

The pass blocking has been tremendous all year. Richardson had all kind of space to operate in, and Minshew has had a lot of time to throw.

Minshew in this system and behind this line is 8th in the NFL in QBR. Richardson looked more comfortable back there with more time to throw than at any point in college, even when playing against teams like Southwestern Carolina Technical University, and was schemed into a lot of wide open, very easy passes. Journeyman Zack Moss was averaging near 5 yards per carry behind this line.

It's a great system/line. If they can add a little more talent and get everyone back they could be a pretty good team next year. I made a nice chunk of change gambling on them early in the year before they started getting more respect from gamblers.

Not for a 72 year old QB, sorry.

Steichen strikes me as a good administrator. Made his bones as a quarterback whisperer but he's detail oriented and they seem like they are well prepared. Just my impressions from watching All 22s, no idea what media or commentators say about him.

Had to make a sacrifice this morning and opted to catch up on some sleep and skip the Colts game
Doesn't look like I missed a lot

I can’t believe I saw that game, or the last part of it.. The Saints were one of the worst teams in the league. Edited - Forgot Lions were pretty good in 1970 and finished 10-4. Must have been the only game on, or I was too lazy to get up and change the channel. We didn’t have channel changers back then. It was the Tom Dempsey game.

we were going snow mobiling. takes awhile to get your gear on - Dad and brother got mad because I insisted we watch the kickoff with a few seconds left. Saints ran one play, out rotue for 17 yards. they're in the garage firing up the sleds, I'm standing in the doorway in my snowmobile suit and helmet with the yellow visor watching that FG.....it took forever to travel 63 yards.....

first of many heartbreaks from the Lions
