I lot of this is poor coaching and uninspired play design. 2 games ago I watched them use the same formation, same motion, and then run the same play 2 times in a row several occasions.

They never build off previous plays, they don't run quick passes, they don't know how to use personal, they don't know how to run rub routes at the goal line - or any part of the field.

Simply watch the GB/SF game and see the wonderful play designs.

I don't really care that Taylor only got 10 carries if the plan was to pass their way to victory but they didn't account for anything the defense might do.

They can't run a screen to save their lives. When was the last time you saw a misdirection screen? Just just all boring, stupid, shit.

GD junior high school coach could do better. Might as well punt on 2nd down.

They don't attack anything and play like a bunch of pussies that know they are going to lose.

I am not arguing that the Colts have played well, the coaches have been great, or that any of us should be pleased with the season so far. I'm just making the point that the idea the Colts should start playing for next year at this point is crazy. I'm sure that most of this is just venting frustration, but it sounded so harsh that I wanted to add my two cents.

I also wanted to make the point that they seem to start and play every game not to lose. Except on 4th downs - then they play to lose.

Can they ever just come out a dictate the pace of a game? Do we ever use the no huddle. GD, I hate these coaches.

Defense is just as bad. they just sit back and take it. JC, at least go down swinging. Blitz, send the house every now and then and more. Try something fkn different.

Whatever you are doing it ain't working. Do you actually game plan?

Disagree. No Nelson, Hilton (with a #3 as our #1 receiver), Smith (replaced by a turnstile) , Leonard is a shell of himself, defensive ends suck, Paye needs a year to learn, defensive backfield is a mess and our QB can't move. This team has to many strategic injuries to dominating players. They are no longer dominating and that has had a huge effect on this team. All throwing Wentz out there is doing is giving away our first round draft choice, a high one at this rate. Sit him and let him heal before he gets permanently injured. He can't protect himself and god knows neither can this line. Maybe not play for next year but can we at least keep a freaking eye on it?

This is probably a silly question and, if so, I apologize in advance....but if Wentz heals up and is healthy, would it be considered dishonest or even deception on the part of the Colts if they choose to not play him just to avoid losing their #1 pick?

^^^ probably not within the spirit of the agreement but who gives a fuck.

it would be disgusting if the colts did that

The failure is across the board.

Front office in not adequately addressing the backup tackle and QB situation. Our passrush still looks stagnant after serious investment.

Coaches in the gameplans and play calling. Time management has been an issue. Scoring in the red zone is a huge issue. A stud like Taylor getting just 10 carries after he looks good. And in general the team lacks fire especially on defense. Not been a problem before.

Players, injuries have derailed our best performers. But even the healthy guys have not been performing. Leonard looks like a shell of himself. He needs to heal. Stewart is not performing to last years effort. Again it is Buckner getting double teamed and no one else showing up. The oline has been underwhelming. Wentz is more effective at 20% than his backups at 100%.

Said it before, this is the hardest opening schedule of any team in 30 years.

Perfect storm to where we are now.

If Jacoby Brisset beats us next Sunday…
