yay, another injury.

Objectives for the offseason? DEPTH and SECONDARY.

Colts kick off. JJ returns it to about the 22.

Reeves (I believe) is down on the play.

Correction: player down was Sapp.

Our offense is good. Our defense isn't. The bad side needs a complete overhaul in the offseason.

Nice 2nd effort by Green gets 6 pts.

Colts 30, Texans 27.

Nice drive, Texans. How 'bout a stop defense?

Texans kick off. Colts driving....again...

Ball currently at the Texan 38.

This defense is ATROCIOUS.

This is painful to watch. I know it's the Colts, but come on. They can't stop anything!

Big 3rd and 9 coming up for the Colts....

Will the defense stop them?

-------

Colts appear short but Dungy challenges.

I think we were hosed on that one, but I really don't think it mattered, as they would have went for it, and most likely got the first.

1st down Colts. Spot is overruled.

They clearly got the first. Good overturn on the terrible spot.

Would be nice if the timeouts weren't blown earlier in the half.

Another 3rd down and 7 for the Colts.

2 minute warning. Texans out of timeouts.

Could be ballgame on this play.....

WOW, was that pressure?

The defense finally stops the Colts on 3rd down.

Colts elect to kick the 31 yard FG. FG is good.

Colts 33, Texans 27

About 1:52 left in the game.

Colts to kick off...

Colts f'up and kick a FG. Can our offense come through? Can Sage redeem himself??

Did you catch who that was that busted through?

So, where exactly will the INT occur? I say around the Indianapolis 46-yard line.

AJ alligator-armed that one. He needs to come down with that!

No, but it looked like the sent just about everyone.

Gee, who'd a thunk it!!! Why not spike the ball and set a play!!! Frickin' dumbass team!!

Damn, close but not close enough.

Around the 37. I was close.

Close, it was the 36.

Commentator - "I have no idea who Sage was throwing to"

Unbelievable!

Texans get to midfield but Rosenfels throws the INT.

Colts run out the clock.

Final score:

Colts 33, Texans 27

It was DeMeco on a blitz. The Texans put on a huge blitz on the play.

You know things are real bad when you can absolutely predict how your team will manage to screw things up.

I can do it with the Braves and predicting double plays at crucial junctures, I can do it with the Suns blowing 9 point leads late in the third quarter to tie the game going into the fourth, and I can do it with the Texans, apparently now in the business of predicting game-ending interceptions.

:(

I went back and looked. It was DeMeco who busted through. Nice effort.

edit: Doh, just saw your post, Keith..

Our defense is terrible.......I have no words......

btw... continued thanks to Arky for providing the comms in the gameday threads.

The defense just got rolled through out the game. Anyone have a yards per play for the colts?

Found it in the box score. Colts had 80 plays for 5.9 yards per play. Texans had the ball for 45 plays and 7.9 yards per play. If I did my math right, factoring out Slaton's 71 yard TD puts the Texans at 5.5 yards per play.

The Colts had like 50 gazillion 1rst downs. I know that.

Edit: Just checked... The Colts had 30 1rst downs to our 16.

F'ING 30!!!!! Unbelievable!

It was DeMeco, of course.

How ridiculous is that?

It would seem this team is beginning to unravel. Are we looking for a high round draft pick? Maybe not, but we'll get one!
