Here's the Colts Gameday Follow list.
I'll be on with Jersey Johnny at about 8:00 on 1070 the Fan.
We'll have post-game coverage here on CA, but also check out Todd, Kyle and me at Bleacher Report today as well.
And: Okay. I'll take heart in the fact that the Colts won a game while playing poorly. But still... dammit, there were simply too many things that were luck (the punt return, for example) instead of actual execution. That just bugs me.
But anyway... a win's a win. I guess I'm just one of those picky fans who wish for wins that come from exceptional execution. I really should learn how to enjoy the ones that come from opportunistically taking advantage of an opponent's mistakes. Those are every bit as legitimate for a team's record.
That's the game.
But dammit, I don't think I really like the playcalling in the 4th quarter, there. There was some good stuff, but too much bad. It worries me that BA can only get the offense so far before he starts being a drag on them.
Here's to hoping I'm wrong about that, and that he's simply limiting things because of all the new players. He's alluded to that once before. Doesn't excuse some of the playcalling, but I'm hoping it's actually the case with them.

@MitchIsaacs can't be a threat if you dont win the games you need to make the playoffs
@zgs1288 Agreed but Id like to see us beat or at least hang with a few contenders. NE and CHI killed us.
Why, why, WHY???!!
"Our center stinks at blocking, let's run it up the middle!!" (*Happy grin*).... sheesh...
I'd be more okay if we didn't line up in Super Jumbo mode which basically means we are capping our gain at 2 yards. Fucking spread the defense out you morons.
Well, at least that run play was effective. But still... if Arians runs runs runs to a punt, I may lose it. Here's to hoping he changes his spots.

The unfortunate thing about that run is that now Arians is going to think it was the right call.
god i saw that Zibs fumble coming. I was yelling "get down! get down!" at the screen. brutal
I'm a music education major with emphasis in cello and conducting. I can't tell you how many things were wrong with that iPhone commercial.
@jlandz09 I was a science major who graduated with a degree in Chemistry and Biology (and Journalism... don't ask), and *I* can find so many things wrong with that commercial.

Ps. As an aside, and 100% unrelated to football: You happen to know any musicologists with expertise in early 20th century Russian music? I'm asking because a few years ago someone on another forum I play on came up with an interesting observation regarding the Prokofiev/Stravinsky feud - seen here: http://forums.randi.org/showthread.php?t=120088 - and I've been swinging around looking to see what others think about it.
