Wow. Reminds me of that swinging gate BS the Skins ran with Hunter Smith a couple years ago. What the hell was that? Illegal formation on top of it makes it so much worse. What did they practice that one time all week or something? Props to NE for not panicking and calling timeout.

Talk about shooting yourself in the foot on national TV... this is why no one considers the Colts a true contender

Irishnuke · Oct 18, 2015

Force NE to punt two straight possessions and then try to get cute. Stupid.

bkess8 · Oct 18, 2015

Colts need to make a change.

Get rid of Pagano, Grigson, and Pep Hamilton!

FearTheBeard · Oct 18, 2015

This has to be a fucking joke, ive never seen such an ignorant play in my life. Pagano must have bet on the pats or something

FightingIrishLover7 · Oct 18, 2015

Yeah, there's really no excuse for whatever the heck that was.

Chuck, grigson, pep, and Irsay all need to hit the road.

Had to see that one coming around the end of the third quarter. Whatever, Colts were gifted a TD by the referees who randomly decided holding was now legal for the last two Indy drives. But at the end of the day, I lost some fake money and good triumphed over garbage.

I lost some real money at -9! Stupid pick-6 early. Good guys won at least. Pillhead owner and dirtbag GM didn't get the butt-kicking they deserved but I suppose the last few years have been enough torture. Not even happy with a 7-point win...thus is life as a Pats fan I guess. 5 wins down, 14 to go....

yankeeND · Oct 19, 2015

Always great to get the W, and good for the Colts for having a pulse this time. I really enjoyed the game, but wtf was that 4th down call for them? That was the dumbest ish I have ever seen. Glad they did it though lol.

If the Patriots are the good in this world then we really need to reevaluate the world we live in!

Thinking about it more...I can't think of a worse play I have seen at the NFL level. Colts were impressive in the trenches as well. That play was game over for them sadly....can't out-trick Belichick.

This is a fire-able offense lol...they only had 1 guy on the line of scrimmage....again was this only practiced once during the week???

Lmfao

Most times, when people do something dumb you can at least figure out what they were trying to do and why even though it was dumb. In this case, I can't begin to guess what they were trying to accomplish or why they thought it was the right time to do it.

So the dumbest play that the NFL has seen in a long time is a formation that is ran by high school and some college football teams. Basically it's to make the defense choose where they want to put their numbers and run a play off of that decision. If they cover the outside then you run it with the QB or vice versa. The problem for the Colts had is the QB needs to be in shotgun and it is the DAMN NFL, no one is falling for that pee wee shit!

One of the dumbest things that I have seen any football team do in a long time. I wish Irsay would sell the team to an owner that accepts change and wants to win. The Peyton Manning formula that we keep trying to replicate never worked in the first place. Learn from the past and accept change, spend your money smartly on both lines and some defense for once. I wish Grigson and Pep Hamilton would both just quit their jobs but I know I won't be that lucky.

Agreed. The mighty cheaters should be embarrassed that they couldn't boat race this sad sack colts team. Oh, well, evil triumphs (barely, lol), and we can move on to lookong forward to Peyton's last hurrah now.

Irish#1 · Oct 19, 2015

Just a huge WTF call for sure. That cost the Colts the game. Don't pull that and their chances to win were very good. This will certainly be used by Grigson a a reason for getting rid of Pagano.

You don't think that the Colts got boat raced? If you watched the game, you never felt like the Colts had any chance to win the game even when they were ahead in the first half. They were gifted a TD on a INT return that bounced off the receiver's hand, and they scored a junk time TD - so they got outplayed by at least 3 scores right off the bat. The score was also impacted by two terrible PI calls, one put a score on the board for the Colts and one took one off the board for the Patriots. And on top of all that, that is the best possible game the Colts could play! They had a good offensive game plan, they went for it on fourth down, they were aggressive, and they played the best football they're capable of, and they still never had - at any point - any chance to win the game.

Hopefully, for your sake, the drug-addled owner will fire the flunky GM and the dope of a coach so you don't squander Luck's whole career. He should have at least a few years left after Brady finally retires to try to win something, and you're going to need to have a better operation in place to be ready for that opportunity.

ACamp1900 · Oct 19, 2015

That play would have worked had NE not stolen Indy's play sheets....

Irish Insanity · Oct 19, 2015

Thru watching the game I never felt like the Colts had a chance to win. However, it never felt like the Pats boat raced them.

You're ignoring the onside kick that was actually recovered by the Colts that would have given them the ball in Patriots territory with the chance to go up 2 scores IIRC.

You're talking about being gifted an interception but the Patriots were also gifted whatever that fake punt formation thing was. The Patriots were the better team but there was never any boat racing going on.

yankeeND · Oct 19, 2015

Again, I will just say, great game Colts fans. Much improved performance. Sorry your coach failed you last night.

Whiskeyjack · Oct 19, 2015

Here's Dan Wetzel on that atrocious fake punt attempt.

I was actually a bit surprised and almost impressed that the Colts were as competitive as they were. Having said that, there was never a moment in the game where I felt worried about the outcome. Even if the Colts were given possession after the onside kick, and even if they had scored, I have no doubt that the Patriots would have done enough to win the game rather comfortably. I think the fact that they tried the onside kick, and the fake punt abortion, and went for it on 4th & G early in the game are all indicative of how the Colts see themselves in comparison with the Patriots.
