The D is good enough that the floor confidence level should be pretty high the rest of the way. 

 

The O confidence level on the other hand... Well rookie QB, even a Caleb Williams.  

 

Once he breaks through though, there will be no turning back.

The main ways we lose this game are

1) Anthony Richardson can occasionally do things that just completely negate the defense.  He makes a few throws a game that are so good that even a perfectly played defense can't stop it. If a couple of those happen to be 70-yard megabombs like the Texans game, they can put up some points. Not a lot, but some.

2) Maybe our offense really is that bad and even a depleted, bad Colts defense will shut them down.

I'm really curious what the Colts come out and do defensively. They've generally been a "we don't do fancy blitzes and disguised coverages, we do what we do and we do it well" defense.  But so was Houston.

Another long developing draw play goes for negative yards. Frustrating

[UMFan83]

Really love that 4th down call, not just because it worked but that doesn’t hurt haha

[UMFan83]

Ugh, good job breaking out of the pressure. Not an easy throw deep to Rome but I’d really love to see him hit on of those. 
 

wtf are they having Santos trying FGs from that deep? When he hit from 54 it hit the crossbar. Seems pretty stupid to give the Colts good field position

Another overthrow that gives Odunze zero chance

[Irrelevant Dude]

That kick never looked right coming off his foot.

[Cubs420psd]

Another terrible deep ball...

 

Come on man

I was told accuracy and quick decision making is why we needed Williams over Fields. So far that’s been complete horseshit.

Meanwhile Willis and Darnold have already led their teams to TDs #coaching

We needed anyone over Fields.  Those throws are why we needed Williams over Maye and he needs to start hitting them.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Exactly what i said:  Get Anthony Richardson to third down and wait for him to spray throws

[Irrelevant Dude]

What's with the 50 year old man immediately committing penalties when he gets on the field?

while scrambling and throwing across his body

The fact that this run game still looks bad against this run defense says very little for Waldron.

Fun fact: the same O-Line who sucks at pass blocking is also bad at run blocking

Another missed throw downfield

[UMFan83]

I know these are tough throws and not always in stride but it’s jarring to see almost anything thrown more than a few yards downfield nowhere close to its intended target 

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Williams is hestitating. You *have* to hit your back foot and throw sometimes

Might help if he planted his feet and stepped into a throw. 

[Tryptamine]

Right now, I'm putting the o /u at 6.5 wins this year. This offense shows no signs whatsoever of starting to figure things out.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

The run game looks better. The pass protection is not amazing but it's adequate. We have no points because our QB can't make downfield throws, no more or less

We drafted him specifically because he's supposed to be amazing at making those tough throws.

Waldron = Goatse 2.0

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the playcalling.
