lol imagine blowing a 26+ point lead

With Matt Ryan at QB? No way.

Defense blows lead twice. “It’s Matt Ryan’s fault”
4. u/WellThatsAwkwrd · 2026-10-24 16:31 UTC
I mean it is pretty wild that it was against Matt Ryan both times lol

Defense can't blow the lead if the offense still scores
6. u/mikaeus97 · 2026-10-24 16:11 UTC
The Offense scored 36 points

No they didn't, 1 TD was from a blocked punt, one was from a pick 6. Matt Ryan threw for 182 yards and 1 TD, the leading rusher had 81 yards. The Indianapolis defense was responsible for the lead way more than the offense was, but then collapsed later into the game.

Offense scored 22 points. Defense scored a TD and so did the special teams

It gets worse. 3 of their field goals were because of great field position. First was turnover on downs; the offense only went 21 yards, second was a failed fake punt by Minnesota. The Colts offense traveled zero yards and kicked A field goal. Another field goal was off of a 48-yard return. The offense traveled 26 yards and kicked a field goal.

Tampa Bay had a game vs the Bears the season before. Halftime score was 35-3 in favor of the Bucs. TB put up the exact same number of points in the 2nd half as the Colts did in this game, a single FG. TB went on to win, Indy didn't. Almost as though there's this whole other component to football that's equally as important as offense is to winning or losing...

If the defense doesn’t give up any points the offense only has to score once.

That's our theory this season.

Why use many touchdown when few do trick
14. u/Alone-Newspaper-1161 · 2026-10-24 18:22 UTC
Colts had 3 touchdowns this game. One was on offense, 1 was in defense, one was on special teams. The colts had 3 field goals made possible by great field position from defense and Special teams. This unfortunately was an Offensive choke job even if the score would lead one to think it was a defensive one.

I didn’t see Matt make a single tackle
16. u/thatjerkatwork · 2026-10-24 15:50 UTC
The real head scratcher was letting the Colts get so many scores to begin with. They were not good that season.

Didn’t think I’d see the first mention of this from a falcons fan, smfh man

What a strange but entertaining year that was as a Vikings fan
19. u/surferdude7227 · 2026-10-24 15:14 UTC
Cardiologists got a lot of work from Vikings fans that year
20. u/Devium44 · 2026-10-24 15:55 UTC
Just that year?
