Picking your favorite sauce is like trying to pick your fantasy team. Okay. Um well, Kansas City in overtime beats the Colts 23 to 20. And it really came down to this is that when the the Colts made the Sauce Gardner move and they gave up a couple of firsts, people said, “Well, where do you get your quarterback?” And I think the Colts felt like we have Daniel Jones. Here’s some pretty stark numbers. So Indie led 20-9 start of the fourth quarter and recovered a Kansas City fumble. The game was theirs. The game was in the Colts hand. And we know they have a star running back and an above average offensive line and good receivers. Pitman Pierce, Daniel Jones, four consecutive threeandouts, 18 total fourth quarter yards. Now, Momes, fourth quarter in overtime, 13 first downs. The Colts zero. Kansas City 236 yards in that time. Fourth quarter in overtime, the Colts 18. So, you again, you’re in the AFC, you’re in the Momes Conference, and the Kansas City now may be on life support, but they get Denver, the Chargers, and the Texans. Three of their toughest games all at home. So, this wasn’t just a win. They went from life support to a it looks like this was one of the tougher ones. Colts on a buy. Joan Daniel Jones was so bad. So limited fourth quarter in overtime. I mean it it’s I I you say what you want about Kansas City. Look at their schedule. I’m going to take him to win playoff games and make the playoffs. You Yeah. I mean I Momes had a stretch in that game where I was like I don’t think he’s playing that well. This is, you know, I’m talking like the second and third quarter when Kansas City was pretty lifeless. It’s not like Indie was running away with the game. I walked out of the room right when the game early on and I come back, I’m like, Kansas City just had the ball and Indie had the ball. I’m like the 5 yardd line. They just gifted him, you know, that that interception he threw. So Daniel Jones was gifted a touchdown, right? They went up seven nothing and then they had a good drive a after Kansas City punts and I think it’s it’s 14 or it’s 14 to three. So once it’s 14 to3, they don’t even come remotely close to scoring a touchdown. And I actually think a lot of his completions throughout the game are on Shane Syen scheming the ball, scheming guys wide open. I mean, they do a great job with the tight end who’s a really good player, but him. I mean, to me, he is a game plan specific quarterback right now. Daniel Jones did not have a single attempt over 20 yards. Not a single attempt. And again, this is an above average offensive line and Pitman and Pierce both get downfield as does the tight end. So I think it what they said, what Kansas City said with that game plan is don’t give him anything cheap over the top. Make him beat us on 16play, 13 play drives. We don’t trust Daniel Jones. And in the second half, he didn’t do anything in the fourth quarter. Yeah. To me, they have no chance to win the AFC with that quarterback the way he’s playing right now. Especially if they’re going to have to be in situations where they have to go outside on the road to Denver. What if it’s a 2-7? It’s against Kansas City in the first round. Who Who are you taking? I mean, Kansas City was trying to give them the game. And I when I say Kansas City, I mean Momes missing guys. I mean, how many He still misses a lot of guys down the field, but when he had to have it, he settled down. He made some big plays. Rasheed Rice was fantastic. I mean, he was he was an today. Yeah. Kareem Hunt was running his ass off. Listen, Andy is not the he the run is not the go-to thing with Andy Reid. And today he didn’t have a choice. They leaned on Kareem Hunt. I think they had over 40 carries today. Uh obviously in short yardage, Kareem Hunt’s fantastic, but that Mahomes, they they just could not pull away. And whenever you do that, you know, to the great players in my lifetime, you give them an opportunity at the end, then you lost it. So to me, it just comes back to Daniel Jones when you hit him uh in big spots. I have no faith sitting on the couch watching him on a third and seven late in the game that he’s going to complete the pass. And listen, he’s he’s better than the guy who saw low points in New York, right? Clearly, he’s he’s an okay player, but I think we got a and I I’m guilty of this. We got a little over excited early on in the season. And we I you know, I think people would say, well, that happened with Sam Darnold last year. Sam Darnold’s a way better player than Daniel Jones. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, I mean Sam’s also a better athlete. Sam throws a better deep ball, bigger arm, throws a better deep ball. Uh Sam, I don’t think um his confidence doesn’t dip much. I with Daniel Jones, you can feel if he throws a pick, you can see if he’s getting pressure. Um yeah, I mean, it’s I I just look at those fourth quarter numbers. I mean, it’s just incredible. Mahomes in Kansas City between the fumble and the red zone pick. There’s no way that in a 20-9 fourth quarter lead. There’s no way the Colts should lose that football game. Yes. Score 11 unanswered to go to overtime and then lose it on I think it was 18 yards too Colin all of the fourth quarter and in overtime. Yes. And it was for the Colts. Well, yeah. We’re talking 25 minutes of game plan or or of game of actual on the- field game and they got the ball first, right? they they won the coin toss and they accepted and they they put it on him and didn’t go anywhere and then Kansas City boom hit some big plays and all of a sudden I mean they truly saved their season cuz it at one time I one thing we’ve learned this year is you can never be too safe with a lead but you’re looking you’re going 20 to9 Mahomes was a little off you’re like this is really how this little dynasty is going to come to an end this season and the answer was no that’s not on the Colts watch no and I mean if you look at the AFC See, Trevor Lawrence, uh, wow, he’s terrible. Oh god, he’s just it’s over. Like, it’s just I He’s had a college coach, offensive coach. Uh, now he’s got another offensive coach. Trevor just makes too many bad throws. It’s just And by the way, Jacobe Meyers, Brian Thomas, he has a couple of nice backs. He’s got an offensive coach. Trevor Lawrence just, you know what I mean? He was just just never, it never worked. And so, and then you have Daniel Jones. So, you start looking around. Right now, you have Josh Allen, but Josh Allen doesn’t have a defense. So, you can sell all your stock you want. Uh, they get the the Denver Broncos, the Chargers, and Texans at home. Kansas City at six and five. My money, they make the playoffs and win games. I I’d even throw I mean, clearly Lamar is banged up this year. He does not like Oh, that he’s not nearly as elusive. And the Steelers are in a complete freef fall right now. And I mean, their starting quarterback can’t even play. So I think when you look at that division which over the last three or four years you know it’s produced burrow obviously Pete Lamar even the Steelers have been feisty I’m selling my stock on that division you you look at the you know the AFC South you go not taking the Jags definitely not the Colts. So to me it’s just it’s back to the Chargers would have a chance if they didn’t have a million injuries. I just think the the AFC West but the the Chiefs I mean they did lose to the Jags. It’s why today I mean their season was kind of on the line, but they they still got some work to do, Colin. It’s not quite over yet. Now they they play Dallas uh this upcoming week, which is obviously going to be huge. Yeah. And the Jacksonville loss, in fairness, it was a standalone game. Probably the biggest regular season game in Jacksonville in a decade. I mean, it felt like one of those rare games where, you know, Jacksonville could have a national imprint. Um, so freaky play too when he throws the pick in the end zone and they take it 100 yards for a touchdown. I mean that’s that happens to a Mahomes, a Brady, a Peyton Manning what, once every five years, something like that. Yeah. [Music]

  2. "this is really how this little dynasty comes to an end"??? LITTLE? It's been 7 seasons. 5 super bowls, back to back Ws and 3 total Ws lmao. What the fuck is little about that?

  5. The game I saw, was Mahomes missing some wide open receivers, and Rashee dropping a few before he redeemed himself. The defense was spectacular, except for three interceptions they dropped, but hey, a win is a win. this win was Drue Tranquil and Chris Jones' game and third on the list, would be Kareem Hunt and then 4th quarter Rashee Rice and then Mahomes. Let's not forget the refs helping the Colts, but until Daniel Jones wins 3 superbowls in 5 appearances, we won't hear about the refs.

  7. Kansas City said we’re going to make Daniel Jones beat us and completely sell out to stop Jonathan Taylor. It worked. That’s the formula for beating the colts, and I’m surprised it took this long for a team to figure it out.

  14. Let’s look at this logically. Kc will get zero help from the league or teams. Every team is on notice to win to keep the Chiefs out of the playoffs. The best option is for jVille Houston or La to lose because those teams are really struggling. If KC gets in watch out because they’re angry and aren’t taking any prisoners.

  15. Last week Colin said they were going to miss the playoffs. 2 weeks before he said they were going to the Super Bowl. 2 weeks prior he said they would miss the playoffs. This guy can't hold an opinion.
