This rain has really screwed up what I thought was going to be a more exciting game.

Run, Run, throw dropped pass, fumble. That's all this game is now.
 
This game is almost as entertaining as a Rams blowout win. Definitely enjoying it more than our game this afternoon, I was a bit uptight during our game. But this is fun to watch.
 
There are a lot of similarities between how the Colts play their zone and Morris plays the Rams zone most of the time. Their DB's are dropping, reading and reacting, in comparison to how Staley played his, drop, read and anticipate. Staley's DBs play faster and will always get more INTs and PDs than compared to how Morris plays. He almost lost this game to a winless team with his bend not break philosophy. The Rams had to virtually score on every possession to win because Morris' defense allowed the Lions to control the clock.

His scheme would be a loser against a quality team. With the Niner run game along with Morris' soft zone scheme, SF will own the clock. Stafford will have to score on every possession. You can't go into a game hoping for opponents making mistakes to win. Jimmy G will carve up Morris simple zones. The Colts play their zone in similar ways to Morris and Jimmy won't have any problem recognizing what he's facing. It certainly didn't fool Murray who struggles to read.

I'm afraid that these lesser opponents will give McVay and Morris a false sense of security. I for one clearly see the flaws in Morris' scheme. You don't use the best shutdown CB in the NFL as a LB.

I said this earlier today. Morris is turning us into the LA Chiefs!

Colts are like a lesser little brother. Both run WCO. Both were very high on Cover 4/6 last season. Eberflus is also cautious like Morris.

Our secondary is better they have better LBs. But this is another reason I wanted to watch the matchup.

He's in bounds. His foot was over the line, but didn't hit the ground. That's how I see it.
 
that was 4th down for the colts if it wasn't for the tackler ..
