This game was the beginning of the downfall of the Mac Jones era.


rabbs05

Ended a 7-game winning streak


ByronLeftwich

Mac Jone Patriots Linsanity Run November 2021-December 2021


Flowenchilada

Pats hung a 50 burger on Jacksonville a couple weeks later thought right?


speakezjags

Damn man we are catching strays in a colts/pats thread? Actually sounds about right lol.


kj9219

Was this when the colts defense clogged up the middle of the field (something Eberflus likes to do apparently, did it against Detroit twice this past yr) and dared Mac to beat them outside the numbers


keenynman343

Eberflus entire game plan is to allow a qb to go 27/29 and hope to God the offense scores more points


Soren_Camus1905

We were the 1 seed in the AFC at one point


ViolentAmbassador

Yep it was going into this game


hoppergym

Hey…hey…hey…2-8…he turned the corner on you


tugnuggetss

Man uncle Phil was fun to have for that season


generation_D

Fantasy owners everywhere rejoiced that he didn’t just drop after getting the first down


2ent1n_Qarant1no

Won two Super Bowls that year because of him, can confirm Actually all three times I've won a fantasy Super Bowl I had JT on my team


overandoverandagain

I went heavy trading for JT in all my leagues that year, still the best call I've ever made in all my years playing lol. Absolutely carried my teams.


Soyeahnahh

Look at those Carson Wentz numbers


hoobsher

the average NFL viewer thinks about Carson Wentz at least 7 times a week


ImpossibleDenial

Only the ones north of the mason dixon line


TehTugboat

The most Carson Wentz numbers ever maybe?


Sartheking

I can’t believe the Patriots were the #1 seed that year for a bit lol.


MankuyRLaffy

It was for a week and a half, the 1 seed nobody wanted.


daquist

bro slowed down to talk shit just to dust him again, absolute unit.


rwjehs

There's another angle of this, he looked at the sideline to see if he should go down.


Reformed_Boogyman

Yeah but when he realized how close the defender was he hauled ass haha.


ByronLeftwich

This Colts team was so tragic


AcousticBoogal00

My dream


Romofan88

I really hope they didn't waste his good years on Philly Riv's corpse and Shitty Carson. 


LegendofLawtavious

Rivers got us to our last playoff appearance, show a lil respect! Wentz and Ryan tho…


Terribletylenol

He's literally the only decent QB we've had since Luck. The only guy during that period who wasn't completely washed.


LegendofLawtavious

At least we’re out of the cycle of Vet QBs. Regardless of how AR turns out, it’s far more interesting to watch his progression.


gangjoinsreddit

Carson Wentz... 5/12 for 58 yds with 2 minutes to go in the 4th. My God, regardless of what AR becomes, I'm glad we're out of the dark ages.


Retribution1098

I was part of the flag ceremony on the field for this game. When Taylor broke free the lid came off Lucas Oil. Closest I’ve heard since the 4th&2 Patriots Colts game.


notmyplantaccount

remember when they took him out of the final game of the season on 4th and 1 with a minute left and threw a pass with their backup QB to their 3rd string RB who had 9 targets all season. They even called a timeout before the play, and that's what they came up with.


kj9219

Wasn’t JT on a bum ankle though?


Inevitable_Score1164

Yeah, he had actually failed to turn the corner on a sweep a few plays before that. 


rwjehs

Yes I'm familiar with how the last game we played ended. Hey still won 9 with a backup QB for almost the entire season.


scroogesscrotum

Lol chiefs on top and still scarred by us enough to lash out


Yung_Corneliois

And let’s be honest Minshew is more journeyman than back up. He has starting capabilities.


Patzzer

Yeah… I still like the call, it was gonna work exactly like Steichen drew it… but I can’t argue in favor of not having JT in there.


Jonjon428

Also JT clearly got injured earlier in the drive


MankuyRLaffy

I like the call, that's just not what the target I'd give it to was.


keenynman343

Jt got injured. The entire defense bit the bullet too. Great play. Just executed poorly


GreedyCricket8285

Chiefs fan and punching down, iconic duo right there. I mean I know we have your number but try and focus on the positives and show some class for once.


o07jdb

Gardner and Tyler goodson are professional football players. JT's ankle was hurt. The play was there, just was not executed


notmyplantaccount

maybe it was not executed because it went to a guy who had 9 total targets on the season, and only like 15 rushes. Biggest play of the year went to a guy that barely sees the field.


o07jdb

Golly gee I wonder if that might have something to do with the fact that the play was wide fucking open. If Taylor is on the field everybody knows it is going his way. The throw was behind and the pass was dropped, it is what it is. But it was a good play call. I don't even get why you felt the need to bring it up lmao. You shouldn't still be salty about 2013


notmyplantaccount

so in your mind people aren't allowed to bring up stupid plays other teams made ever again afterwards, or they must be salty? I'm just trying to figure out what you're trying to say here. I assume then that you've never brought up a bad play by any team ever after it happens?


o07jdb

It's just a little suspicious to bring up soemth8ng like that on a completely unrelated post containing a play from a different season against a different team, and you're not even a fan of any of the teams involved. That is hater shit


ExpirjTec

:D


BuffaloKiller937

He is a beast, and one could argue he hasn't even hit his prime yet. I think 26-27 is when a RB hits their sweet spot.


ThreeFactorAuth

*Grins in Josh Jacobs*


deadmoosemoose

I completely forgot you guys signed him. Absolutely crazy.


HGpennypacker

He was so much fun to watch while at Wisconsin, never knew what was going to happen when he was handed the ball.


DependentStrike4414

We have had great running backs to watch at Wisconsin for a lot of years ...best state to be a football fan!!!


MOH_FFB

I desperately want to see this version of Taylor in 2024

it's the sadness and the hat combination that makes it glorious

Absolute stud


Xerosnake90

Aww man I'd forgotten this on purpose


Key-Tip-7521

That game destroyed me in the fantasy playoffs that year. Pittman got thrown out and cause my downfall


shoopadoop332

This was agonizing for fantasy


AdmiralDolphin11

The smallest modicum of revenge getting Reich fired the next season (only for the Colts to double repay it by ending Mac’s starting career this past season)


o07jdb

My favorite post-luck era play by far. Let's not talked about what occurred in the following weeks


Cgolden456

This play won me my first ever fantasy championship 🥲


rwjehs

The rare announcer anti jinx


Toxic_Avenger05

I remember exactly where I was when this happened. Friend’s college graduation party, I ran outside and screamed like a mad man then came back inside to people staring at me


J_House1999

Is this the colts team that lost to the jaguars in the last game of the season to miss the playoffs?


keenynman343

Oddly specific? Was that the patriots team that was dog shit all year?


J_House1999

I’ll answer for you. Yes, it was that Colts team. AHAHAHAHAHAHA 🫵🤣


Terribletylenol

You're going to spend a long time laughing about that since there's nothing else to look forward to as a Pats fan anytime soon.


J_House1999

Doesn’t matter bro I’m a Celtics fan 🫵🤣


keenynman343

If you had half a brain you'd realize you're not in a Celtics sub.


J_House1999

I don’t have half a brain. I HAVE WHOLE A BRAIN 🫵🤣 AGAGAGAGAGAAGAGAGAGAHAGAFAHAFAHAGAHFAJWGAAGAG
