Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
Wentz deserves a lot of blame for that loss. He still makes some dumb decisions at the worst times. With that said I just don't understand why these coaches get so dang pass happy and go completely away from running the ball. Indy has a good run game and one of the best backs in the league and Reich refused to run the ball in the second half and overtime. 20 rushes and 51 passes? It's mind boggling.

I wouldn't say the pick at the end was as bad as seems. Safety cage if his responsibility reading eyes and gambled. Made a play and won the game. Not a good pass but not half as stupid as the pick 6

What do you guys expect? He's playing games on the sabbath!

Listened to the post game show on the way home from the game. During his press conference Reich took responsibility for the horrible play that resulted in the pick 6. He said you should never run a screen like that necked up to your own end zone. He mentioned 2 or 3 others he admitted to poor play calls. One was the third down play (should have run rather than pass) before the failed 4th down in the first half.
Fun game but bummed at the outcome. Went to Vikings game in Cincinnati and they lost in OT on a bad turnover. Same with the Colts today. I'm not going to any more games.

Reich is a class act. He knows how to take the blame off the player which a good coach will do.
Playing QB in the NFL can be a tough gig. Brady had 3 turnovers today!

Wentz is an average QB. He and Goff have never lived up to their 1-2 picks in the draft. Well, I guess Wentz did that one year.

That was an awful playcall. 2nd INT was on Carson, missed Taylor wide open in the middle of the field that wouldve got them a 1st down.

I’m sure Carson will beat himself up over it, but he has to stop himself from snowballing and just bounce back.
