Every week Adam Vinatieri Jersey , I will present a summary of some basic and advanced stats for the Colts performance relative to the league. Thanks to Pro Football Reference, NFL.com and the nflSCrapR project for being awesome sources of weekly data.That was . . . I mean it was . . . it was just . . .There are no words. Even when things went right they went wrong.There were really only 2 drives that had any promise, of which, the first was a turnover on downs at the 1 and the clock ran out on the other.The rest of the drives were just garbage. Sure there was a 45 yard drive that ended on another failed 4th & 1, but the other 8 drives totaled a whopping 89 yards of offense. Believe it or not, a 63% Drive Success Rate is not the worst number the Colts have had this season.In week 3, against the Eagles, the Colts put forth a 58% DSR effort that had only 14 first downs.In that contest,generous field position gifted by the defense led to 16 points.Against Jacksonville, however, the Colts weren’t that fortunate.While they managed more first downs, they also turned the ball over 3 times in Jacksonville territory with 0 points as a result.TEAM TOTALSPick a stat, any stat. Okay don’t tell me, let me guess. The stat you picked was. . . horrible.The Colts came into the game leading the league in third down conversions at 51% but could only manage 28% this week and that does not include going 0 for 3 on fourth. Only 22% of scrimmage plays resulted in first downs, which is 28th for the week.An interception, fumble and 2 turnovers on downs were literal drive killers and figurative game killers. PASSINGThe only somewhat acceptable passing stat is the 63.5% completion rate. But that came at a cost of yards as they were short passes (3.3 air yards) and the receivers couldn’t muster many yards after the catch (4.2). There was only 1 explosive passing play . . . ONE!The only thing more pitiful than Andrew Luck’s 4.8 Yards per Attempt is his 3.3 Adjusted Net Yards per Attempt.RUSHINGLate game script limited the rush attempts for the Colts and thankfully so. As I watched the game, I thought the rushing game was bad.I was wrong.A 9.1% weighted rushing success rate isn’t just bad, it’s historically bad.Since 2009 Marvin Harrison Color Rush Jersey , the worst Colts rushing performance was a 2014 game against Dallas when the Colts were curb-stomped 42-7. In that game, the offense managed to put up 1 rushing yard.That’s not a typo. 1 yard for 0% wRSR.The next worse Colt rushing game after that? This one.Of the 4,992 regular season games played since 2009, a 9.1% wRSR is tied for the 41st worst performance of any team. This effort was so bad, that I was sure it was the worst by any team this year. But in week 4, the Steelers rushed 10 times for 19 yards earning a 9.0% wRSR.They scored 14 points. CONCLUSIONS & NEXT MATCH-UPI was, and still am, adamantly against Reich going for it on 4th and 4 against the Texans, but I have no problem with him going for it this week.In fact, I think he should have gone for the 4th & 1 where he punted. The numbers were on his side but the team (including the coach) just didn’t execute.And that’s true for the rest of the game.The offense just didn’t execute.Actually it was beyond that, they looked diseased and traveling to Houston to play one of the league’s best defenses may not be the best medicine. Houston isn’t as strong against the pass as Jacksonville but they are still very good holding QBs to a 9th lowest ANY/A (6.1). From a run perspective, they are ranked 4th in wRSR against, which is even better than the Jags (5th).Last time, the Colts managed to put up 34, absolutely gouging the Texans in the second half. Maybe Luck can find some of that magic again. TRAILING 5 WEEK TOTALSSEASON TOTALS (per game) EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The New York Jets pulled off the type of victory that even Broadway Joe could appreciate.With聽Joe Namath and the 1968 Super Bowl-winning squad watching聽, Jason Myers kicked a franchise-record seven field goals, Sam Darnold threw two touchdown passes https://www.coltsfanshop.com/Tarell-Basham-Jersey , and the Jets held on to beat the Indianapolis Colts 42-34 on Sunday to win consecutive games for the first time in more than a year.“The game wasn’t perfect, by no means,” coach Todd Bowles said. “With the growth of the team, we probably would’ve lost this one a year ago or a couple of weeks ago. So, to win ugly, for us, is a pretty good thing.”Morris Claiborne returned the first of three interceptionsthrown by Andrew Luck for a touchdown as the Jets (3-3) moved to .500 by taking advantage of mistakes by the short-handed Colts (1-5), who lost their fourth straight.“It’s one of those bittersweet victories,” Claiborne said. “You played well enough to win the game, but you feel like you could’ve played a lot better. You never want to give up that many points.”Darnold was 24 of 30 for 280 yards, with TD throws to Terrelle Pryor and Chris Herndon and an interception to give New York its first back-to-back victories since taking three in a row in Weeks 3-5 last season.“We’re definitely back in the thick of things,” Darnold said. “But at the same time, we’re not satisfied.”Myers hit field goals from 30, 48, 32, 37, 45, 37 and 45 yards to break the Jets record previously held by Jim Turner (1968) 鈥?the kicker for the Super Bowl champions 鈥?and Bobby Howfield (1972).“It’s more important that we got the win Tyquan Lewis Jersey ,” Myers said, “but being able to help out and do what I can that way, that’s what’s most important to me.”Luck was 23 of 43 for 301 yards with touchdowns to Marcus Johnson, Eric Ebron, Erik Swoope and Chester Rogers, the last coming with 1:51 left to make the score close. Neal Sterling recovered the Colts’ onside kick to seal the win for the Jets.“Stupid is the word that comes to mind,” Luck said. “We do some silly things to ourselves.”The Colts were playing without several starters, including wide receiver T.Y. Hilton, defensive linemen Denico Autry and Margus Hunt, tight end Jack Doyle, safety Clayton Geathers and right tackle Denzelle Good.Trailing 13-10 in the second quarter, the Jets forced a turnover when Jamal Adams knocked the ball out of Robert Turbin’s hands and Jordan Jenkins recovered.Darnold converted two third-down plays on the ensuing drive 鈥?19 yards to Robby Anderson and 7 to Jermaine Kearse 鈥?to get the ball to the Colts 10. Darnold zipped a pass to Pryor in the front of the end zone for a 17-13 lead with 2:35 left before halftime.New York took advantage of another turnover when Luck’s pass to Ryan Grant deflected off the receiver’s hands and right to Avery Williamson, who returned the ball 31 yards to the Colts 22.After Myers’ 48-yarder, the Colts went three-and-out and the Jets got the ball at their 28 with 42 seconds left before halftime. Darnold hit a series of passes and, with 18 seconds left, found Kearse in the middle of the field for 23 yards. Myers booted a 32-yarder as time expired to put New York up 23-13.Darnold came out firing to open the second half, scoring on a terrific play design 鈥?a fake wide receiver screen 鈥斅爐o a wide-open Herndon for a 32-yard touchdown聽. It was the first TD of the rookie tight end’s career.Luck answered right back, throwing an 18-yard touchdown pass to Ebron to cut the Colts’ deficit to 10.After Myers’ 37-yarder Ryan Grant Color Rush Jersey , the Colts came right back, with Luck throwing a 2-yard pass to Swoope to cut the deficit to 33-27 just 8 seconds into the fourth quarter.Myers added a 45-yarder, giving the Jets scores on six straight possessions.Luck was trying to answer again when聽Darron Lee picked him off on third down聽to give the Jets the ball at the Colts 25. Four plays later, Myers’ 37-yarder made it 39-27.“It’s a bit frustrating,” Luck said. “I feel a bit like a broken record. Talking about it is the easy part. It’s doing it. It’s living it.”QUICK STARTOn the Colts’ second play from scrimmage, Luck threw short to Marlon Mack, Adams tipped the pass into the air and Claiborne grabbed it, zipping 17 yards into the end zone 12 seconds into the game.Luck and the Colts rebounded on their next drive with a 34-yard catch by Johnson to tie it at 7.RODGERS RETURNSJets defensive coordinator Kacy Rodgers, dealing with an illness, was on the field before the game. It was not immediately certain if Rodgers was in his usual role of running the Jets’ defense during the game, or if Bowles did so for the second straight week.“He was a casual observer,” said Bowles, who called the defense for the second straight game.CROW SLOWSIsaiah Crowell had 40 yards rushing on 13 attempts after setting a franchise record last week with 219 on 15 carries. He dealt with an ankle injury all week and was questionable to play.INJURIESColts: Turbin left with an injured right shoulder after his fumble and didn’t return. … Grant injured an ankle in the second half and didn’t return. … Johnson injured his right ankle late in the game and was helped to the locker room.Jets: WR Quincy Enunwa injured an ankle on his fumble in the second quarter and didn’t return. … S Marcus Maye left with a hand injury in the third quarter.UP NEXTColts: home vs. Buffalo next Sunday.Jets: home vs. Minnesota next Sunday.
