Got my radio on, and let's get the game going. I've done this before putting together a live blog for what I was thinking during the Colts game, and I wanted to make sure I get back to it. Not sure what to expect, but there better be a more concrete effort from the Colts today, and there's no way there should be another 62-7 loss.
Sorry for the delay, took some time to carve up a pumpkin, and here are my thoughts on the first half.
So what's there to say about anything in that first half? The Colts look terrible, and they just might be the worst team in the league. Looking over scores, the Rams are beating up on the Saints and the Dolphins are playing tough against the Giants. What are the Colts doing? Finally getting some score during the third quarter, and even then it's a field goal. Maybe they are on the suck for Andrew Luck campaign. The one bright spot I can say about the Colts is Pat Angerer, who's leading the league in tackles. Special teams aren't exactly special, especially after that blocked punt. The offense moved a little bit on that last drive, but they need to put the ball in the endzone.
Here we are in the third quarter, and Titans got the ball with about 4:00 minutes left. Time for the defense to put the clamps on the Titans, and force a punt. And they can't get off the field. The Titans pick up the first down, and keep moving down the field. But hey a penalty that brings the ball back. So maybe the Colts can get a break for once. Another chance to stop the Titans on this third down. The Colts stop the Titans and get a punt. Chris Johnson doesn't look like anything he used to be. You pay the man, and he performs like this.
Colts have the ball on the 20 yard line, and time to see where they can go. Good pass to Dallas Clark, and he remains uninjured on the play. A great pass to Pierre Garcon, who looks to be a key target for Curtis Painter, and someone who feels comfortable passing to each time. The always interesting 3rd and 1 play for the Colts. You know how often they DON'T pick this up for some reason. Donald Brown should have picked up that first down before this, but got all hesitant and played footsie in the backfield.
Entering the fourth quarter, the Colts are moving the ball. Time to punch it in the end zone, and make this game kind of close. Still time left to go, and if the defense can make some stops, who knows what can happen. Hey look Donald Brown with a touchdown run. Makes up a little bit for that mess up on the earlier run. He hit that hole and made sure he was going to score. Colts pull into this game 20-10.
The Colts should have stopped the Titans on this third down play, but there's a screen pass to the running back, and Titans are moving the ball down the field. There we go, Colts make the stop on another third down, force the punt, and get the ball back with plenty of time left in this one.
All right idea by the Colts here on this first down play, but a bad throw and it doesn't go to Garcon like it should. And that drive gets halted with an interception, and the Colts look to throw this game away.
The Titans are trying to put this game away. Big third down play here with almost five minutes left. Too late, and the Titans score. Looks like another loss for the Colts. Don't shave till the Colts win.
Nice scramble there by Curtis Painter. Didn't think he had that type of movement in him. Wow two tough runs by Painter on this series. Maybe Painter should run the wildcat. And an offensive lineman goes down, which is nothing new this season. Had to go for it on that fourth down, but it went for nothing. Titans get the ball back, and probably run this down till the end of the game.
2:00 minutes left in this game, and those two minutes probably won't go quick enough. Colts are still pushing it down the field, but too little too late. Painter is running for his life out there. He has 7 rushes for 79 yards, not a bad day at all for his running game. There we go, and the game is over.
