**Official Game-Day Thread** Colts at Texans, Sunday Dec 9th, 2018!!

To stop our offense you just have to stop the run.
To stop our pass rush, and defense, quick passes to speed guys and/or TEs.

It would be great if the Texans could cover.

The Texans ability to cover has always and forever been predicated on the type of pressure the front seven get on the QB. It's b/c we've never had a shutdown CB that doesn't need the front seven to take the top receiver away.
 
No matter how good your defense is an elite offensive team will find ways to score. I'm not seeing a very creative game plan today.

Hope O'Brien can adjust. What is O'Brien record when losing at the half?

I'm blaming Crennel & his defense. Maybe you're right though. BO'b is the HC, but you wouldn't think he'd have to tell them to cover 85.

But the TO on end down. I was thinking he should have called it as soon as dude was tackled. Thinking we'd force a punt & have time to score before the half & get the ball to start the third. But Romeo & Badger gave up a first down in the next play... so, TO wasted.

You call the TO when and if there’s a 4th down. You know that. O’Brien should know that.

Same **** we've been saying for months, but some on this board choose to ignore because we were winning. This offense is not very good. Too many first down runs. Long developing routes. Watson not making quick decisions. The defense has long lapses where they give up yards and points.

They need to start pressing the colts and double TY every play. Stick Reid on Ebron full time.

On offense we need to do up-tempo and start hitting quick passes and slants. Stop throwing to Webb.

I take it you would like a new OC?
 
Rac needs to ease up on the zone blitz packages Luck is eating them alive. You have the talent to go man, make the offense commit mistakes .. send 5-6-7 guys. Need pressure.

No amount of creativity can mask bad protection, no running game and missed throws..

Give the colts defense credit, they’ve done a great job.
 
LMMFAOOOOOOOO at everybody who laughed at me when I said last week we was a few dropped passes from losing and that a Real QB would have ate us alive last week in that second half........ our defense looks different when it ain’t a Rookie QB this week dont it ? Lol

Creative in down/distance play calling. It's been super vanilla so far. Nothing from the last 3 weeks. It's obvious Indy is going to sell out against the run, guys are open you're right so someone needs to be in Watsons ass at the half. He's played like a meek game manager so far.
 
Who's managing the gameday roster? How did the Texans come into this game without a true extra WR? I'm not blaming #5 but I hope he can just focus on blocking downfield.

I don't know but there's more instances of us losing at the half than winning.

It's why "a win is a win" is dumb.
 
Watson should've ran for the 1st down when it was open right in front of him....instead, holds it and winds up having to take an unnecessary hit while getting the 1st.
 
Missed Webb there..he’s got to learn to get to the checkdown instead of thinking he can step out of everything
 
I agree he does have a difficult time giving up on a play (Watson) could have thrown it away, or thrown it to the other QB Webb coming across the middle.... OL does suck, no doubt or questions about that (even if they have gotten better) but a lot of the sacks are on Watson not getting rid of the ball
