Eh, that game fucking sucked last night.
It didn't suck because of horrible football, it sucked because of all the injuries the Colts suffered (shocker). Once Castanzo went down and then Ijalana, the offense was never the same. It's just unfortuante. However, that's not why they lost the game. They lost because Jim Caldwell has proven once again he has no balls and is a bitch.
I actually agreed with him taking that holding penalty when the Bucs were driving, giving them a 3rd and long instead of a 4th and three that they could have easily converted and kept the drive going anyway. However, what I totally disagreed with is his piece of shit vanilla Tampa 2 defense. WHY THE FUCK WAS EVERYONE DROPPING BACK 20 YARDS ON A THIRD AND SHORT YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!111111
Oh my god, there's nothing more frustrating than seeing the team you root for give it everything they had for 60, and to lose so many players due to injury, only to see the coaching staff give it right back to the opposing team with horrible coaching. The defense was playing too soft, the decision to fucking PUNT with 3 minutes left was STUPID. I knew the second McAfee ran out there the game was over. The defense was so gased and weak due to injuries at the interior line that it was over. Blount ran all over them and a good play call by the Bucs on that Freeman boot was all she wrote.
It's just ridiculous how conservative Caldwell is when the obvious answer (fuck the percentages, I don't care about that stuff) is to go for it, or go the risky play in order to win. High risk, high reward is what I say. Caldwell is more along the lines of no risk, no reward, which is why they're 0-4 and he's notorious for losing games with his awful coaching.
I'm just over it. I knew the Colts weren't going to win many games this season, but it's just sad to see the team continue to fight each minute of the game only to see the head coach lose it for them.
Fire Caldwell and hire Brian Billick I say (and hope Marvin Lewis gets fired and hire him too).
Btw, Painter isn't as bad as everyone thought huh?
