And four turnovers. Look, I am not happy about our d but our offense screwed them in the second half. It’s not reasonable to expect a d with a bad coordinator to hold up when they are on the field that long. I simply want to acknowledge the offense f-ed us too and their inability to adjust to the adjustments of the colts D is a problem

Wait and play it safe and drag the guy down for three extra yards versus attack.

I think there is a lot of legitimate talent on this defense and it is being held back other than a few guys. Also, no more Preston Williams in coverage for the love of God.



They have no other options. You want to have looks where the OLB lines up like a rusher but drops back to give the offense different looks. You don't want Z or Gary in coverage. The only other option they have is Burks who has started taking reps at OLB, but he's useless as a rusher.

So we miss Fackerl more than we thought? If that's so, it's a double hit - Fackerl's gone and Preston is functionally sidelined. Smith has too often been pretty weak in coverage - that's just not in his skill set.
