Week 5 Gamethread

[Kenny F'ing Powers]

Nothing like taking an inopportune sack, eh Ryan?

 

[DeadlySplitter]

What the hell is happening out there?

 

[slamminsammya]

matt ryan looks really really cooked

 

[luckiestman]

3 & 38 is damn funny

 

[Kenny F'ing Powers]

Matt Ryan? Taking sacks to push them out of field goal range? No way.

 

[Bowhemian]

Seriously this is bad football

 

[luckiestman]

This shithead going out of bounds, oh my god man

 

[worm0082]

Maybe Ryan retires after this game.

why not halftime?

 

[mauf]

Broncos just gave the Colts those 10 yards on 3rd down. Probably cost them 3 points.

I generally think the importance of in-game coaching decisions is overrated, but Hackett and his staff have been really bad all season.

 

[BigSoxFan]

WTF. Just go down!

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

This is one of the dullest games I can recall watching in recent years

 

[Gash Prex]

Maybe Ryan retires after this game.

Ryan is guaranteed 54 million in 2022 and 2023 - the colts actually elected to do this insanity

I recall a time in the off-season when the colts fans were excited to bring in Ryan

It’s getting close to the point where it is so bad I’m having a good time watching just how bad it is.

 

[cshea]

Ryan looks awful but the line is horrendous too. That LT is a turnstile.

I saw him play against the Jets last year and he legitimately looked good. 3 steps drops, ball was out, quick decisions. Total opposite is what I’m seeing tonight.

 

[Bowhemian]

This is right up there with one of the worst half of football I’ve ever seen. And I used to coach youth football. Like 6th graders youth

Colts really could use a reset year to get one of those top 3 QBs. Then, you have Ryan on the last year of his deal as a potential stop gap option or expensive backup.

 

[j-man]

if denver can get to 16 they win denver has stopped the up the middle run game yeah denver is not great but if they beat LAC twice they are likely in as a 7 seed and denver is a diff team at home it's looking like a 7-1 home rec and a 1-8 2-7 away rec for them

 

[slamminsammya]

is whats his face the running back for the colts injured?

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Sherman seems to have a pretty big axe to grind with Russ.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Back injury

 

[j-man]

looks like hou will have the num 1 pick then after that who knows

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Ankle, brain, gushing wound all equals a back injury in NFL parlance.

 

[luckiestman]

What a shitty throw, TE was wide open

 

[cshea]

$234 million for this guy?

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

This post is evergreen (for tonight at least)

 

[BigSoxFan]

Serious albatross potential here. This is ugly.

 

[luckiestman]

Punt returner out there trying to get injured.

 

[luckiestman]

He plays in the mountains now

 

[Ale Xander]

1st to 10 wins

 

[Van Everyman]

Sherman seems to have a pretty big axe to grind with Russ.

 

[j44thor]

This game is like a combination of the CHI/SF game played in a monsoon and the NE/BUF windstorm game from last year but the weather is perfect. This is just horrible football.

 

[Van Everyman]

Once Ryan is released, which washed up QB will the Colts bring in next year?

 

[luckiestman]

As a neutral, I thought the wind game was very good and dramatic

 

[RIrooter09]

They’ll probably give Geno Smith a huge contract.

 

[j44thor]

I was just referring to the offensive struggles. It was 1 million times more exciting than this crapfest.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

This game is hideous

 

[luckiestman]

Makes sense. This game reminds me of a super windy game where I think the Jets beat the Redskins 3-0

edit: Take a look at this shit

[E5 Yaz]

This game is hideous

Al won't even make sly gambling references on this one

 

[Bowhemian]

Never gets old

 

[j44thor]

Outside of the kickers is Philip Lindsay the offensive MVP of the game so far? I think that sums it up.

 

[scott bankheadcase]

On the plus side, I decided to pickup and start the colts kicker this week to give me a reason to watch this game and 2 50 yarders later, I’m enjoying it.

 

[joe dokes]

Reminds me of the Giants-Cards MNF game in 83 or 84 that was so bad George halas died shortly thereafter. So many missed short fgs that on the last, don Meredith said "boys, he's gonna miss this one too" right as the ball was snapped.

https://www.nytimes.com/1983/10/25/sports/giants-in-overtime-tie-cards-miss-late-kicks.html

In a poorly played game with an incredibly bad finish, the Giants and Cardinals played a 20-20 overtime tie tonight.

The Giants apparently had the game won in regulation time, only to watch Neil O'Donoghue of the Cardinals tie the score on a 22-yard field goal with 54 seconds remaining. In overtime, O'Donoghue missed three field goals - from the 45-yard line, then the 20, then the 42.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Even the refs suck

 

[Van Everyman]

That catch summarizes this game pretty well.

 

[luckiestman]

The ref picked the DB, what the fuck?

 

[luckiestman]

The Broncos are going to win because the refs picked a DB. I have never seen that before.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

That catch summarizes this game pretty well.

Indeed. This game is generally three yards and a cloud of Russ
