Colts 2022 Embrace the suck

[ChristianPatriot]

Some things to watch over the weekend.

Our old buddy Carson Wentz and the Commanders are taking on the Titans in Washington. Would love to see Mr. Inconsistent to have himself a day.

Texans and Jags play each other in Jacksonville.

 

[ChristianPatriot]

At the half:

Jags - 6
Texans - 6

Commanders - 10
Titans - 14

 

[ChristianPatriot]

Texans beat the Jaguars. Hilariously.

Wentz had 1st and goal with like 30 seconds left to beat the Titans and throws an INT on 3rd down.

Typical.

Who would have ever expected this?

Ron Rivera: Quarterback the reason why rest of NFC East is ahead of us

Commanders head coach Ron Rivera pushed back at unfair narratives he felt were attached to Carson Wentz after the team traded for him this offseason and said he was spreading confidence to his teammates during offseason work, but he wasn't nearly as warm toward the team's quarterback on Monday.

Saw someone on Twitter say he was going to be the most athletic electrician of all time next year.

I wasn't very happy in my analysis of week five:

Five Takeaways - Colts Week Five Abysmally Disgusting Win Edition

The Colts somehow escaped Mile High Stadium with another notch in the win column. What did we learn from the Week Five game against the Broncos?

Colts Trending Up/Down - Week Five Pyrrhic Victory Edition

The #Colts escaped Denver with a win in Week Five. The game provided ample fodder for players trending down. Did anyone trend up last week?

I've been reading these all season and just now realized you were writing them. LOL. I look forward to reading them every week.

Thank you! I'm glad to hear someone actually looks forward to reading them. It's primarily a labor of love (or gluttony for punishment) for me.

How cool! I did not know it until you said this. Great work Chip…

Per Frank Reich’s media availability today, the plain is to stick with rookie Bernhard Raimann at LT

Probably the right decision. Matt Pryor was an abject disaster and they really need Raimann to develop into a serviceable starter.

They signed several other offensive linemen as well. Honestly it’s a good sign that Reich/Ballard see what everybody else clearly sees. We hear so much “we really like the players we’ve got” or “we think he’s got some upside”. The proof is in the pudding. Signing guys off the street is an obvious admission that they know that what they have ain’t gettin it done.

Heard a crazy stat today.

Our defense is #10 in the league at just under 19 points per game.

Nearly HALF of our points given up this season have come directly off of turnovers.

Just turn those fumbles and INT’s into punts and we’re probably 3-2 or 4-1.

Further proof that turnovers are costly
