GDT: Cardinals at Colts 8:20

[AlCowlingsTaxiService]

Maybe we can sign Murray as our RB1

[HappyDays]

Leonard being out is a much bigger loss for the Colts than their interior o-line. Ertz and Edmonds are abusing them.

[Billznut]

Nice little dump off to the back for 11-12 yards. We rarely if ever do that the past few years

I'd like to see a foot race between Murray and Taylor!

Lol pretty much just saw Murray’s version

Absolutely...Leonard is the main playmaker on the Colts D.  He's got great instincts and is tremendous at punching the ball for turnovers.

Just having a legit two TE offense would have been huge IMO

 

Yeah, and just to have a different attack strategy.  Struggling to run or with wide outs, then go two TE sets.  I think it would be something extremely helpful against NE.

Every week I become more and more convinced that the o-line talent is really not to blame for our offensive struggles. It is mostly offensive coaching. Colts have their entire interior o-line out for this game and just had an effortless TD drive.

agree. Look at the blocking on that long Taylor run tonight. Nothing special— cardinals actually get a lot of push. But the scheme is smart— Doyle comes across on that wham, everyone over pursues, and Taylor cuts it back and is gone.

Singletary isn't a good pass catching back. Too slow to maximize the available yards. That being said this offense should be able to get yardage at will on passes to RBs with how defenses scheme against us, Daboll just doesn’t make it a focus. In theory Breida should be a perfect option for that kind of play. We are just a very uncreative offense all around. I watch other offenses make it look easy.

This looks like it could be a classic

Brady made a living out of it for years dumping off to backs.

Are we sure our o-line is naturally bad at pass protecting? You wouldnt know the Colts were missing their entire interior o-line with some of these pockets Wentz has. Again, other teams make it look effortless with less talent.

Just one man's opinion, but I am not convinced our O-line coaching is even adequate.  I'd like to think better coaching could have helped Ford vs. the dumpster fire he is right now.

I've noticed that he doesn't catch the ball in stride.  He has to stop or slow down to catch the ball.  Then as you say, he doesn't have the foot quickness to get back up to speed.  He's actually a problem in the passing game.

[JoshAllin]

new oline being exposed now

[TBBills]

So glad we have Bass'O'Matic

I will say though some of that is scheme. Almost every time we throw the ball to a RB it is a check down or screen. Those passes will always involve the RB accelerating after stopping, and Singletary just can't do it. I very rarely see us draw up swing passes or Texas routes where the RB is the primary read and is moving as they catch the ball.

Watch him become Wyatt Teller 2.0 somewhere else 🤬

[Steptide]

Insane catch, but probably won't stand 

[Warcodered]

Does that count or is it out of bounds because he secured it out of bounds?

[Carmel Corn]

I don't think Ertz had CONTROL of the ball before he went out of bounds....ball never touched the ground though.

Should be called incomplete.
