If the run game had been ineffective you would be spot-on in your analysis but let me remind you the Colts had their safeties playing one- or two-man over the top to prevent the deep ball — just like Cincinnati did to limit Andrew Luck.
It took Luck 39 pass completions to reach 300 yards passing. That means the Cincinnati secondary limited the Indianapolis receivers’ yards after catch.
Back to Andy Dalton. He took what the Colts gave him and completed 21 passes for 243 yards. I’ll take those numbers when combined with Joe Mixon’s stellar job on the ground. Against Baltimore on Thursday Night what you originally wrote will be critical to winning the game. It’s hard to run on the Ravens, period, so Andy Dalton will have to spread passes around to every receiver he has on every route they can run.
child please! or should I say...old man please!
