What’s the analytics play here?

Feels like the clock (40 seconds to go) tilts it a bit toward kicking the field goal.

These kickers are something else in 2023. I know it's indoors, but still.

Except for Ryland.

Has to be the fourth 3rd and long handoff. What a garbage game, try to move the damn ball. There's nothing else on
What? That was a terrific play and got the Colts 3 points. (Whether they should’ve gone for 4th and short instead of kicking is a separate question.)

I think it is. First half, field position and distance say kick and make it a one score game.

Was that SVP-Herbie convo a tape of their convo between games? Or did he come back on and answer the same questions?

And just like that, we have a ballgame.

What happened to Houston? Tired from altitude? Don’t have any. Figure they won’t go anywhere in the playoffs if they do get in? Never give up! Just tired? Minshew tired them out? Weird game.

Does the Ref normally announce a player reporting as eligible over the loudspeaker and it just so happens that normally the broadcast reduces that audio?

He’s down at the 23. Maybe slightly across.

NY had the whole TO between periods to get that spot right. Instead, we have this shitshow.

NY can't change it w/o a challenge, I don't think
Right. That's my point. People watching monitors could fix clear screwups in real time and it would actually speed up play.

Don't see that. It’s nose of the ball to nose of the ball and he looked good on the last three plays.
People get confused by the black line ESPN puts on the field. It's not official, and the line of scrimmage is a "line," not something as wide as the black line
