There is nothing wrong with drawing conclusions from the first week of the season Authentic Margus Hunt Jersey , but ultimately we have to keep things in perspective. The same is true for examining the snap counts. Now that we’re into the regular season, they can tell us a lot more than they did in the preseason. However, we have to take things with a grain of salt and understand that there will be changes that impact things going forward. Let’s take a look at the snap counts and see if there is anything interesting to be learned.Offense#PlayerPositionOffensive SnapsPercentDefensive SnapsPercentSpecial Teams SnapsPercent#PlayerPositionOffensive SnapsPercentDefensive SnapsPercentSpecial Teams SnapsPercentNotesThe first thing that jumps out to me here is the continuity across the offensive line. They were able to keep these guys on the field for every offensive snap, save the one J’Marcus Webb missed. That is unusual in itself, but whoever is freed up when Castonzo returns, it looks like they’ll have 6 guys they trust to play significant snaps.Ryan Grant is the clear number 2 receiver.He played 18 more offensive snaps than Chester Rogers, and looked solid doing it. On the offensive side, Reich does everything he does to create matchup problems, so it will be interesting to see if this is flexible week-to-week depending on the defenses they face. For that one guy who keeps trying to convince everyone that Christine Michael is going to light up this roster, this pretty clearly illustrates what the coaching staff thinks of him. On a day where the team was missing Marlon Mack, he got just 3 snaps.Jack Doyle was in on 77 snaps, which seems like a lot because he was somewhat invisible early. That isn’t totally shocking because the tight ends were needed to help aid the offensive line against a solid pass rush. Still, it surprised me, because I expected to see that he had slightly lower numbers.Defense#PlayerPositionOffensive SnapsPercentDefensive SnapsPercentSpecial Teams SnapsPercent#PlayerPositionOffensive SnapsPercentDefensive SnapsPercentSpecial Teams SnapsPercentNotesIf Clayton Geathers had been experiencing any lingering issues with injury, those are gone. He was in on every defensive snap Youth Al Woods Jersey , and 9 on special teams. Only Kenny Moore was on the field more for the defense.Malik Hooker was in on 40 snaps, which can’t really be thought of as a “pitch count” because it is a pretty significant workload. However, when you have a guy as talented as Matthias Farley backing him up, it doesn’t bother them to give Hooker a break. Najee Goode surprisingly saw just 7 defensive snaps. When bemoaning any play of the linebackers, remember this: the three linebackers who got the majority of the snaps in this game entered the game with a combined 10 games of NFL experience. This is a young group with a ton of potential. Pierre Desir had no snaps on defense. That might be the most surprising find of all for me, personally. He had just 9 special teams snaps to his credit, even with Quincy Wilson in a club/cast.Special Teams#PlayerPositionOffensive SnapsPercentDefensive SnapsPercentSpecial Teams SnapsPercent#PlayerPositionOffensive SnapsPercentDefensive SnapsPercentSpecial Teams SnapsPercentColts Cast: Breaking down Colts Week 4, 37-34 OT loss to Texans The Indianapolis Colts OT loss to the Houston Texans in Week 4 will not soon be forgotten. The final play that the Colts ran offensively, though, certainly does not sum up this game nor should it. Andrew Luck put up a massive stat line (40-62, 464 yards, 4 TDs) that should quiet those saying that his arm can’t do this or can’t do that due to some lack of arm strength.The Colts defense had themselves a game, too, despite the fact that the Texans finished with as many points as they did. They held the Texans’ running backs, forced a turnover and held up in the red zone on some possessions just as they had through the first three games. The Colts offense did gift the Texans 14 points after all. With all of that clearly in the rearview mirror http://www.coltsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-ryan-grant-jersey , Frank Reich’s 4th-and-4 call to go for it, in his own territory has no shortage of opinions coming out. Of course I’ve got mine as well, but it goes less towards “should he have gone for it on 4th down in a tie game,” and more in the direction of what was happening in the past few minutes of the game. Many will say that you put the ball in your franchise quarterback’s hands when it counts, and that’s a totally justified opinion. But, what about when the momentum isn’t in his favor?If there’s anything that really needs to be addressed in all of this, it’s those saying “the Colts aren’t going anywhere this year anyhow” IN WEEK 4. Last I checked, a tie is not a loss, and if the wins are the same come playoff time, that tie could come in handy. There are 10 teams in the AFC with a 2-2, or 1-3 record right now. Why couldn’t the Colts earn a Wild Card berth this year? And do fans honestly think that nothing is worth it if the team isn’t deemed “Super Bowl contenders” right now? That seems a little more than ridiculous to me.Please subscribe, rate and review the show anywhere you listen to podcasts.Colts Cast Links: Apple Podcasts | Stitcher | Art 19 | SB Colts Cast YT Channel | Google | Spotify « Why I am excited for the Ravens this seasonWhich Game Will Be Most Critical In The Fourth Quarter Of The Redskins Season? » Weitere Artikel der Kategorie Allgemein |
