Just because he fumbled doesn't mean he didn't come to play, why the hatred for our best player. It is obvious that the Titans was going to stop the run and Vrabel said that at halftime. There were no holes for him to run through at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWatShot Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 6 minutes ago, Billingsley99 said: I have come to the conclusion that the most overrated player in the NFL IS NONE other than our very own 18 million. Dollar man Quinten Nelson. The Colts have brainwashed so many fans into believing he was a good choice at #6 overall. When they gave him the extension, social media was full of people saying things like "but...but...but...you can't draft an offensive lineman that high!" like his salary was some kind of justification for picking him there. No one ever talks about how they had to put him at left guard because he was too slow to play the much more important left tackle. It was a bad choice then, and it's even worse since the guy he was supposed to be protecting is now backpacking around the south of France and the guy he's protecting now fumbles every time there's a breeze. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It literally means he played poorly. He sucked, and should have never fumbled there. So because he is the best player he isn't allowed to be held accountable? He sucked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see it like you because no running back would have had many yards with the lack of room to run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you don't see the pattern of first halves this year and think it is a trend. Week 1 down 10-3 Week 2 down 17-0 Week 3 down 14-10 Week 4 down 24-10 So this is just on the players and nothing to do with the coaches. I get it that you coach football and wouldn't blame coaches for bad play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but this has been a problem for the Colts since Reich been here. We get slow starts to the season and slow starts to the games and digs a big hole. So no coaches should lose their job because it is always on the players for playing bad and making mistakes. I guess Mike Davis should still be the coach at IU. It just looks to me the players have tuned out what Reich is trying to do and probably tired of his everything will be gone attitude. Sometimes a coach needs to rip on players and hold them accountable but Reid h is always mild manner.

DC2345 Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 Overall guys on the Colts tend to not show up ready to play under this regime. I don’t care who you point the finger at it’s been the same story year in and year out. Sirianni was the brains of the offense/game prep and the offense has gone down hill since he left.

It just seems like the offense is so vanilla with no mis directions or put players in motion. Don't put receivers in bunches to make it harder for the defenders not to get bumps on the receivers.

I will agree with that and add that Reich's play calling in crucial situations is suspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They put Hines, Dulin, Pittman, and Campbell in motion today. They pull guards all the time, especially Q.
