Special teams with a bad snap bad blocking, laces out Marino and that’s the ball game.

A lot of things went wrong in the game that rookie cornerback contributed but he was not the reason the Colts lost.

I’ll be the first to say it right now from the draft where ever the Colts wind up they should take some of those pics trade up and go get an honest to God edge rusher. A game changer, like Dwight Freeny.

This isn't an experience thing. It's a technique issue. It's a very basic technique issue. You learn that through practice, not gametime experience. Putting him out there only makes him a liability till he demonstrates he can actually utilize proper technique. And it isn't like we don't have another option, we have another high pick in Wilson just sitting there. Ya sin might have more long term potential, but right now he is a weakness that opposing offenses have earmarked. Next time we play a actually good QB, he will go after him.
