Stupid play calls. Just run the ball each time and then kick the FG. Must have saved a minute plus of the clock.
Some throw that by JJ to ensure Detroit didn't get the ball back. His stats don't look great but that was a very mature performance.
Always nice to hear a division rival even if it makes very little difference to this season. Good to see McCarthy doing well too as that is all I’m really interested in for the rest of the year and seeing if he looks like he has what it takes to be a franchise QB
Colts secondary looking very nice now: CB: Sauce Gardner CB: Charvarius Ward CB: Kenny Moore CB: Jaylon Jones FS: Cam Bynum SS: Nick Cross
You paid a King's ransom for him, plus his salary which is substantial after his extension. But fair play for going for it.
Giving up 2 first round picks for a corner back. Colts are going all out for a Super Bowl this year jets have got 5 first round picks over the next 2 years!
It's a steep price for sure, but he's a genuinely top-tier difference maker. And as big contracts go, it's about as team-friendly as can be Only a $9.5m cap hit next season and then $20m and rising from 2027. I saw that he's performed as a top four cornerback since coming into the league in 2022 and is the 18th best paid cornerback. I feel pretty good about it given how much better the Colts have been drafting in rounds 2-4 compared to round 1, especially given that those two picks should be at the back end of the first round
The issue you have now is you have a lot of pieces in play for a Super Bowl run. Apart from one position - the most important one: QB. I don't think Jones is good enough to get you past a Mahomes led Chiefs, or an Allen led Bills, or a Jackson led Ravens. You need a franchise QB and Jones isn't it IMO and Richardson is a complete bust. You can't draft one anytime soon as you've traded away your first rounders for the next two drafts so you either have to trade for one or sign one in FA.
