IU Scott Posted Monday at 10:06 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 10:06 PM The good and bad of Colts week 2. Good JT rushing but needed about 10-15 more rushes. Pierce Bad Run defense Gus Bradley never changing his philosophy. He let an inexperience QB get comfortable and didn't make him beat the Colts but let them run the ball down our throat. Shane Steichen play calling on the 3rd and 1. Also not having JT in the game in the 4th quarter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gave up 36 hurries and nearly a 50% pressure rate. The Colts should just blitz every play on Sunday. My brain still isn't done working on that game. I know we have to shift to next one soon but man. Poles being a Line guy himself there is no way the same unit can be brought out again. All the things that went bad, line, play calling, execution....and we still had the ball with a chance to win at the end. Not sure what to think. Shoot I'd take a swing at Caleb Jones. I think Packers let him ago.....but anyone besides the same group. In terms of Bears/Colts. I don't see the Colts scoring more than 14-17 so if we can muster that we win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears-Colts should be a tight, competitive game in my estimation. Whoever screws up less, wins? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should they have taken an OL instead of Odunze? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I liked the pick at the time, but I guess I figured they had shored up the OL in free agency. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily in that spot, but the last two drafts we have passed on some really good centers at various picks and center has been a gaping hole on this roster since Olin Kreutz retired many years ago. I entered this season feeling really good about our tackles (Braxton Jones and Darrell Wright) and I like Teven Jenkins at guard, although this season has started rough for him. But center and the other guard spot were question marks and I certainly would have liked to see that solidified more. Especially with our GM being a former OL. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be an interesting game on Sunday. Will be a ton of Bears fans in LOS, and the Colts are playing for their season already. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have season tickets for the Colts with him because it makes for a fun Sunday, and anyone but the Bears, I'm all for the Colts winning even though they beat us in the Super Bowl which I'm totally not still bitter and seething over, nope not me! ' Two teams needing to find their way, and yeah I'd say the Colts level of urgency should be much higher. 0-2 isn't a good omen in the NFL, let alone 0-3. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is smart to get him some reps in the 4th quarter on a crucial 3rd and 1 play. If JT was in there and we ran the option then the edge guy would have to choose who to take. With Sermon in there the edge guy didn't have to worry about the RB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
