    Colts need a pass rusher to show up for this game. Getting beat when blitzing, getting beat when not blitzing

    Luck continues to look mediocre. I really dont get the hype with this guy.

    Its 1 good game , 2 average ones.

    Yeah the oline is a problem but no other young QB gets that excuse.

    The way Luck plays reminds me of Eli Manning, he is inconsistent, and probably believes he can overcome any mistake. I think the critics will get louder to this season, Luck is not a baby anymore, people keep treating him like he is on some pathway where he takes one step forward each year. This is his last free pass, because next year he better be expected to win it all.

    Luck with a good run and dive into the EZ. My pet peeve is players stretching to reach the EZ on a run/dive with the ball in one hand. Lots of risk to fumble the ball into the EZ and lose possession on a touchback.

    Good drive by INDY to end the half though. Defense needs to find a way to slow down Broncos otherwise it's too late to get into a shootout. Cannot match Denver score for score down 3 scores

    Damn refs botched that, Luck handed it to Bradshaw before he was down.

    Bradshaw almost made a awesome and smart play.

    Denver defense with a couple BIG stops. Tackling Nicks short of the GL and then demolishing the Colts OL on the QB sneak.

    If a guys knee, other knee, and wrist are down on the ground, is he really down by contact? Refs say no!

    Thankfully we have instant replay.

    That TD should seal it.

    21 point lead with 10 minutes left.

    lol Luck about to pull another KC-type miracle, Colts getting the ball back with three minutes to go down one TD.

    What happened after the interception? I turned the TV off and then I saw the Colts had scored? Did the Broncos go 3 and out ?

    Yeah I saw the end.

    Brees, Rodgers, Brady, and Luck all on squads that are 0-1. Love it. (and yes I did pick all of em to make the playoffs but IDGAF)

    I seriously think NFL needs a grading system for the refs too. Hell, Premier league does that, and the entire soccer world does that.

    This officiating crews at Denver was a fucking disgrace to say the very least. A complete bullshit of a pass interference on Denver [1], and a non-call on Running into kicker call, again, in favor of Indy. [2] This shouldn't be happening at NFL.

    I think its great though, we have Brady, Brees, Rodgers, Luck all under a ton of pressure to get wins next week. IDC who you are, you dont want to drop to 0-2. Chances are, one of those guys are going to lose next week, hopefully for our sake its Rodgers or Brady, if not both, if not ALL. (but im not trying to get greedy).

    This made no sense! The Bears offense is explosive period......playmakers all over the place. A rookie QB is a rookie QB........they all struggle and Carr is no exception. The bottom line is we held an explosive offense to 20 points and under 100 yards rushing and you guys played a rookie QB with 2 washed up runningbacks that gave him no help at all......those are facts!
