    Lamar Jackson is a bust and will be a total flop in the NFL.

      Wentz had his best game of the season. Both QBs had receivers running wide open all night, and all kinds of time to throw. At one point, Indy had practice squad players in the secondary due to injuries. Kicking issues cost the Colts a win.

        I’ll give him credit. He looked like garbage for three quarters but turned it on in the fourth. Colts played a soft zone defense late and Jackson ate it up.

          I agree, too bad he missed. Rodrigo Blankenship is usually pretty accurate and reliable.

            Sad sack defenses on both teams. Never seen such wide open running lanes and receiver routes. Indy will be searching the waiver wire all week for DBs cause they used up every one they had. Indy did a great job with playcalling all night with a great mix of running and passing. Canada,....watch the tape!!

              He had some hip issue going on last night, which would explain the misses, and the punter coming out for an attempt before the half. Baltimore has had all the luck go their way so far.

                I knew he would miss after the blocked FG earlier.

                When Baltimore was down 25 to 9 I had a feeling it wasn’t over and that blocked FG gave them life.

                I will say we can probably get 3 fumbles off Lamar. His ball protection has been atrocious this year on the ground.

                  Colts lost a game they should have won with an injured kicker missing twice and the team down to 3 corners.

                    Not as strange as the investigation into Bruce Allen and his email cache that proves exactly what I was telling this place about that franchise.

                    Washington was so toxic the owner has opened up Bruce Allen’s cache of emails to expose him as the primary source of the toxic environment. Snyder believes Allen was the one leaking info to damage Snyder’s name.

                    So… add in that Snyder wanted Haskins and no one else did and you get a front row seat into my theory that Haskins was thrown into a terrible situation where its actually possible people in that FO wanted him to fail.

                    Hot damn I’m even better at this than I thought!

                      Wasn't that email like a decade old?

                      If WFT was some kind of a cess pool (and I'm not saying it wasn't), I think we'd expect to see more than 1 old email from a guy not employed by the team (or anywhere in the NFL).

                      Maybe it will come. Or maybe it already has and it just didn't get the same amount of press as Gruden has so I missed it.

                        its more than one… and the only reason they found them is because Bruce Allen is part of the investigation and they were looking at emails from the last 10 years.

                        It wasn’t just one email.

                        From what I gathered they found a bunch and sat on them for a while. Its never a good idea to use company email to trash the NFL and send nude photos of cheerleaders.

                        Gruden just got caught up in the investigation of Bruce Allen.

                        Read the NYTimes story if you want more details on all of these emails.

                            The real question is why expose Gruden now when they have had these emails for months? Apparently the NFL was trying to get Gruden ousted and he wouldn't budge. So they did a control 'leak'. According to Florio there's over a half million emails they are going through. There is a whole lot more going on that the NFL isn't talking about.

                              Why now? Because there is an investigation into WFT’s toxic environment and they are combing thru 650,000 emails.

                              Gruden happened to be in some of those emails with the Team President calling the commissioner a f#####t.

                              I’m sure you know how this works. Its like the Ray Rice tape that the NFL says they never watched. Someone leaked info to a source and it was just a matter of time before he was exposed.

                              He wasn’t the only name in the Times article but he was the only one currently employed as a head coach.

                              I wonder how some of those other execs and CEO’s are doing regarding damage control since their names were released.

                              Why now? Because the NFL has a rep to protect and acting like Gruden is a victim is a terrible PR move. He said a whole lot and typed it out and hit send a bunch of times. He should’ve never came back to the NFL or dipped out as soon as he heard WFT was being investigated and Bruce Allen was a primary target.

                                They've known about the emails for months. You didn't answer the question, why now? Why not before the season started? Those emails don't get out unless the NFL releases them.
