Quarterback Gardner Minshew referred to as out the Indianapolis Colts for some worrying habits following the crew’s loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
The Colts misplaced to the Falcons 29-10 on Sunday, a disappointing end result contemplating they got here in having gained 5 of six video games whereas the Falcons have been struggling.
Minshew instructed that the Colts had missed the Falcons and didn’t take their opponents critically sufficient.
“You begin counting wins and also you begin doing schedule math and also you go searching, it’s like, ‘Nicely they misplaced to Carolina; we beat the Steelers ,’” Minshew mentioned, via Stephen Holder of ESPN. “Nicely you realize what? You gotta go earn it proper now. And if you happen to take this flippantly, you won’t find yourself with one other [chance].”
Minshew appears to assume the Colts thought they’d win simply by displaying up. That could be a worrying mentality, particularly since there was solely a two-game distinction of their respective information coming into the sport. The Colts merely will not be ok to have the ability to look previous any opponent.
Two years in the past, the Colts infamously collapsed down the stretch and price themselves a playoff spot, prompting a reckoning within the organization.
That was with a special crew and a special coach, however the issue should still stay to a point.
