Colts Interim HC Jeff Saturday Regrets

Colts interim HC Jeff Saturday Regrets Not Calling Late-Game Timeout For Losing To Steelers. Then sleeps on top of Head Coach.

while Colts Jeff is now regretting the late-game decision he made during Monday night’s 24-17 loss to the Steelers.

“I wish I had that third down back,” Saturday told reporters on Tuesday. “I wish I had called a timeout.”

Having the chance to erase a sloppy display, the Colts also had three timeouts as they faced a seven-point deficit. with 3:52 left in the game, The Matt Ryan-led offense worked its way through midfield after starting on their own 7-yard line, while scratching their heads, he soon followed after being scrambled for 14 yards by the quarterback with a minute left.

Twenty-five seconds ticked the clock, as the Colts lined up for their next game even though the team had three touchdowns remaining at the Steelers’ 26-yard line. Indianapolis finally snapped the ball with 34 seconds on the clock, but the running back draw they called went for no gain and left them finally calling a timeout facing a fourth-and-3.

Ryan’s incompletion to Parris Campbell on the next play effectively ended the game, as the Colts, with two timeouts remaining, lost.

“I thought we had plenty of time, I wasn’t really concerned,” Saturday said Monday after the game. “We still had timeouts. , I wasn’t too concerned.”

Ryan Was Fired For The Next Game

That sequence wasn’t the only opportunity for the Colts to save time with a timeout, either. Coming off the two-minute warning, the Colts converted on fourth-and-3 and kept the clock running. They elected to not call a timeout after Ryan was sacked for a seven-yard loss on the ensuing play.

While there’s no guarantee the Colts will score a touchdown to potentially tie the game, the question of what if after a home loss? as it turns out, they haunt Saturday night too, and undo his original thoughts about that last trip.

“Look, all my coaches, whether it’s Tony (Dungy), Jim Caldwell, those guys have always been very transparent with his teams, whether it’s public or not,” Saturday said on Tuesday.”

“I believe in that. Inside, I wanna make sure everybody feels that you own whatever portion is yours.”

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers (ribs) Says He Plans To Play Sunday At Bears After ‘Good News’ With Scans

Aaron Rodgers plans to be on the field Sunday when the Green Bay Packers take on the rival Chicago Bears.

During his weekly appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers said on Tuesday that he should be good to go after exiting Sunday night’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles with a rib injury.

“I got good news with the scans yesterday, so I plan on playing this week,” said Rodgers, who had already been dealing with a broken thumb before the rib injury.”

Rodgers got hit early in the game but continued to play through obvious pain until exiting for the locker room in the third quarter. And Rodgers did not return as Jordan Love finished out the loss.

Colts interim HC Jeff Next, Rodgers Muscle Injuries While Playing

“There was an earlier shot in the game that kind of rattled the rib cage,” Rodgers said of the injury. “

Then I got hit again in the third quarter and was just having a hard time breathing. I pride myself on not coming out of games and I’ve played through a lot of different things over the years.

some that got attention, some that haven’t got attention, But I was in some considerable pain and I feel like I just couldn’t move out there really much at all. I wanted to go in and make sure it wasn’t something really really serious.”

With Love looking solid-lite on Sunday, the fact that the Packers have a bye in Week 14, and their 4-7 record (losing seven of the past eight), there had been talk that Rodgers could miss at least the game against the Bears, if not longer.

Rodgers quickly shut down that talk Tuesday. “We’ll go to one of my favorite places down in Chicago and hopefully get a big win, get into the bye week and get healthy,” he said. Facing a decimated Bears defense that made Mike White look like Joe Montana on Sunday, Rodgers should be in for a bounce-back day against his rivals after a year of struggles.

Bengals WR Tyler Boyd on Patrick Mahomes-Joe Burrow matchup: ‘I look at it like Manning and Brady’

In January, Joe Burrow and Patrick Mahomes authored two electrifying performances as the Cincinnati Bengals bested.

the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17 and again in the AFC Championship Game. Ahead of their Week 13 bout on Sunday, Bengals receiver Tyler Boyd sees shades of the Peyton Manning-Tom Brady rivalry that dominated the early 2000s. “It’s going back to that quarterback fight. I look at it like Manning and Brady,” Boyd said Monday, via the team’s official website. “You can’t stop them. It comes down to whoever excels and takes advantage of their opportunities in drives and scores points. These are the types of games that we have to take care of the football and not turn it over.”

Since Manning retired, many combinations have been dubbed the next Manning-Brady (most involving Mahomes). However, we’re still far from an annual rivalry reaching those lofty heights.

Burrow’s Bengals are 2-0 against Mahomes’ Chiefs in the infancy stage of their head-to-head competition.

Boyd smirked when asked which one was Brady and which might be Manning in this comparison.

Colts interim HC Jeff And Boyd Had A Hard Time Making Comparisons Between Burrow And Mahomes

“It’s Burrow and Mahomes. I wouldn’t compare them,” Boyd said. Those are two guys with records for fastest two quarterbacks to reach 10,000 yards.

It’s hard to stop Burrow and hard to stop Mahomes. At the end of the day, Burrow is two up. Whichever one you want to pick, whoever got the most wins, there you go. Regardless of the comparisons, Sunday’s game promises to be a heavyweight bout between two AFC postseason contenders.

Meanwhile the Bengals have won five of their last six games, with Burrow sitting in second with 23 TDs and third in passing yards (3,160) Colts interim HC Jeff And.

despite playing the last four games without Ja’Marr Chase, who is expected to return this weekend. This is an important fight for the AFC playoff position. Not only are the 9-2 Chiefs trying to avenge their playoff loss to Cincy, but they are also looking to earn a spot in the No. 1 seed. The Bengals moved on to 7-4, tied with Baltimore in the AFC North, and sat out only one game for a wild card berth.
