Week 15 Game Thread

[johnmd20]

Gave up too many yards on that play.

 

[Average Reds]

Did the Colts blow a 36 point lead?

33.

 

[johnmd20]

Punting. Lol.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Indoors, I go for the FG here.

 

[natpastime162]

33-0

Well in that case…

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

They don’t think Ryan and the offense can do anything.

 

[johnmd20]

How do you punt there? I know it's Matt Ryan and all, but get the points. You're in a dome.

 

[DanoooME]

Terrible decision to punt here.

 

[Nator]

Halfway to a tie.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Valhalla, I am coming!

 

[natpastime162]

Would a Vikings win mean Matt Ryan has been on the wrong end of the largest comebacks in regular season and Super Bowl history? Not sure what the regular season record is

WTF is Matt Ryan doing?

 

[johnmd20]

WTF is Matt Ryan doing?

He just mashed all the buttons.

 

[JOBU]

So I’m just gonna toss a hypothetical out there. Say the Vikings drive down and used all 10 minutes. Kicked a fg as time expired. The colts would still get a shot yeah? Each team gets 1 possession. How does that work?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

He definitely hit the equivalent of that lateral button on the PS controller.

thank johnmd! So he’s already tied the regular season record (with a tie)

 

[johnmd20]

These spots are still weak.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

WTF is Matt Ryan doing?

Sacking up and getting a key first down!

 

[Nator]

This is just a fascinating match up of bad coaching choices and shaky quarterbacks. It feels like every play will end in a disastrous touchdown.

 

[JOBU]

Going to a 10 minute quarter was stupid

 

[johnmd20]

thank johnmd! So he’s already tied the regular season record (with a tie)

He would beat the record, they were up 33. The 1960 game was 31.

 

[OurF'ingCity]

When was the last time a team had two ties in a season? (If that’s where we’re headed…)

 

[Average Reds]

This is just a fascinating match up of bad coaching choices and shaky quarterbacks. It feels like every play will end in a disastrous touchdown.

This pretty much captures it.

Like watching car crash after car crash.

 

[Obscure Name]

"Colts are trying to stay alive for the playoffs." Ya sure about that, bud?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

"The short game f'cking SUCKS!""

 

[Over Guapo Grande]

So I’m just gonna toss a hypothetical out there. Say the Vikings drive down and used all 10 minutes. Kicked a fg as time expired. The colts would still get a shot yeah? Each team gets 1 possession. How does that work?

There is an "unless one team possesses the ball the entire period" exception to the "1 possession rule"

 

[JOBU]

There is an "unless one team possesses the ball the entire period" exception to the "1 possession rule"

Interesting thanks

 

[Marciano490]

Banner makers in Indianapolis must have like 3-4 different options set and be waiting by the phone like old timey newspaper editors waiting for election results.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

There is an "unless one team possesses the ball the entire period" exception to the "1 possession rule"

Isn’t this exception applicable to the postseason but not the regular season?

 

[Average Reds]

Matt Ryan’s day is concluded.

 

[Al Zarilla]

they should have blitzed Ryan all day.

 

[natpastime162]

Come on Colts

He would beat the record, they were up 33. The 1960 game was 31.

Ha! My math isn’t usually they bad. Looks like that game was before the NFL added overtime following the 1974 season. I looked up the ties record and the lack of overtime meant the record is 6 ties but only 1 after 1974

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Going to a 10 minute quarter was stupid

Co-signed.

 

[P'tucket rhymes with...]

Since it's gone to OT, Cousins has to be good for another pick, no?

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Spike the ball

 

[Average Reds]

From your lips ….

 

[DanoooME]

When was the last time a team had two ties in a season? (If that’s where we’re headed…)

1973 - 4 teams did it (CLE, KC, GB, DEN)

 

[natpastime162]

Spike the ball

Spiking seems less and less common these days. Just me or is that true and a change in strategy/play calling?

 

[johnmd20]

Lol. This is hilarious.

 

[JOBU]

Jesus colts. Way to play

 

[natpastime162]

1973 - 4 teams did it (CLE, KC, GB, DEN)

Also pre-overtime

 

[Obscure Name]

What a boneheaded penalty.

 

[Average Reds]

That is such a Colts way to (maybe) lose.

edit: and lose they did.

 

[jmcc5400]

A missed FG after all this would be the cherry on top.

 

[JOBU]

Please shenk this

 

[Nator]

This pretty much captures it.

Like watching car crash after car crash.

I also forgot to add horrendous officiating.

 

[DanoooME]

I also forgot to add horrendous officiating.

At least they got the delay of game call right.

 

[johnmd20]

Officially the largest comeback in NFL history.

This shitty Saturday(Jeff) game turned into an epic contest of hilarity.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Hang a banner for THAT shit, you choking dogs.
