Cap definitely showed he was more than willing to lower his pads and fight for extra yards. I saw him pushing the pile multiple times.

After tonight I've got to think Wegher is the odd man out. With everybody making a basically equal case, nobody made a compelling enough reason to shuffle the depth chart. Stewart, Cap, Fozzy, Todman is where we'll likely end up.

They kept running Wegher through the A gap. Almost like they were punishing him by running him through the heart of the defense over and over and over again. Looked like he was spoken to when he popped a run outside for a big gain. Toss the kid a draw (not up the A gap), or a screen, or an off tackle run. I believe I saw him spitting up blood.

Maybe the coaches are so stubborn they do not want their RBs running to daylight, but rather following blockers who cannot move bodies. Maybe it has never been the RBs, but the coaches who have created these running game issues.

Take what the defense gives you has always been my motto. Scrap the play if the blockers in front of you cannot open the hole - at that point it is a broken play. No need to run into a wall when the play breaks down with the blocking so you can say you ran to the correct hole.

Too much micro managing from the coaches.

That was a draw play on 3rd and long. Not a straight up run. Caught the defense sleeping. The typical Todman run is when he gets blown up behind the LoS.

Still waiting fo CAP to show he is physical and not simply a dancer. Defenders square up with CAP and he folds to the ground. He is not going to replace Stewart until he can create yards with some power. His chance near the end zone said it all. Same issue at Auburn.

Very impressed wih the OL tonight.

I'm willing to bet Dan Henning came in his pants once he heard a Carolina RB scores on a 3rd and ten draw play.

      He's handing off play calling duties to fuging Brad Idzik as well so, either that mouth breather can run the playbook and Canales can grow as an all around head coach or it will be a horrible decision and both of them and BY can screw off. I'm fine with that as long as it isn't just another excuse for BY to get another year with another coach worthy of working around his limitations as a qb.

      Not only for Andersen but the whole team, having not beat the Habs this season before tonite.  Shows them that they aren't jinxed.

      I understand why people say things like it could be worse in relation to Tepper but it just doesn't jive for me. Are the optics bad? Yes. Would I want her to be the owner of my team? No. But I mean she's only been owner for a year and the Colts overall are a better run organization. As far as I know they've also never had the distinction of having the worst win percentage in all of professional sports either. Tepper has owned this team for 8 years and about the only thing that has been consistent has been the ability to continue to find different ways to achieve new lows. Even now people are saying things are different yada yada but we said these same things at certain points under Rhule Fitterer and Reich. I'm going to wait to see how the rubber meets the road this upcoming season before I make any strong conclusions about anything in relation to the longevity under this franchise going forward.
