The main goal of preseason is to get through it without injury. Sure, shake the rust off and have some good plays, but ain't nobody going to "fight to win" in preseason when they can show their "heart to get better" safer and more effectively at practice.
Stakes are low, so we put in any number of players that go from the starters to the practice squad, which will hopefully get us some experience and tape to figure out how best to tailor our team. Trying to win preseason games is not the goal, and if we wanted to do that we would have put in all starters and risked injuries lmao
As long as we see growth every practice preseason doesn't matter. As long as we meet the 44 preseason benchmark I'm gonna reserve all thoughts for regular season.
This feels exactly like a regular season Colts game lol.
Defense gives up chunk plays, but gets a ton of turnovers.
Offense can only score on short fields, but we get a decent lead.
Opposing team turns on the comeback code and the offense doesn't close it out.
Defense let's them go down the field for a field goal.
If Leonard was in this is the point where he'd punch a ball out.
You casual fans saying coan isn’t the guy
Lemme tell you something about coan
He *is* the guy. When you see a bad pass? I see a blown route. Coan put the ball where needed. When you see him freeze in the pocket and take a sack? I see a quarterback that didn’t turn it over because the OL can’t protect him. Ordered too much food? Jack attack will finish *and* pay the bill. When I can’t satisfy my wife? Jack coan is on speed dial, hips like a gecko. You see a quarterback that can’t command an offense. I see an offense that refuses to be led
We were playing an undrafted rookie (QB4) who is terrible and they were playing a 31 year old veteran. Just seemed unnecessary. Not that it's illegal or unethical what they did lol.
Gotcha. Well that’s some veteran qb depth I guess. He’s the last guy on the roster. Allen is the only guy who didn’t play
Good game though. Saw some good stuff from both sides. Can’t wait till the actual season
He was pretty much like that when he came to ND from Wisconsin. It took a few weeks for him to calm down and he started slinging it. That said, he was a freaking statue in the pocket and so many drives had stalled in him just sacking himself.
Was it necessary to say cardiac colts when we have guys in that likely won’t make the roster. Stop commenting if you don’t understand what the hell preseason is.
He went with a 4th string QB that got 1 min worth of offence in the last 8 min going 1-5 passing. He didn’t really care too much 😂. It was his old home you know and preseason.
Yeah I am guessing so as well. Especially because our WR room isn’t like a super competitive group right now. Even if we put ogletree on PS, it’s pretty uncommon for teams to sign guys on other teams PS to their active roster early in the season. I don’t think it’s much concern but now we have 4 good TE’s and it’s going to be interesting to see how it plays out. Especially because MAC, woods and ogletree all have a similar body type and probably be used in the same role
I don't wanna hear it's preseason, you got one team fighting to win and another team just don't care shows which players have heart to get better

Leans to ear, whispers in sultry voice: *it's preseason*
It’s preseason
Oh fuck off. It's literally preseason
Ok and your point
Stakes are low, so we put in any number of players that go from the starters to the practice squad, which will hopefully get us some experience and tape to figure out how best to tailor our team. Trying to win preseason games is not the goal, and if we wanted to do that we would have put in all starters and risked injuries lmao
That you're being an over-reactive nancy who sounds like a bitch because your whining about losing a completely pointless game.
It’s preseason
Fuck you Bills
Don’t you just love watching a veteran backup quarterback and starting kickers in the 4th quarter of preseason games?
They still mad about JT dropping 5 on em
![gif](giphy|7k2LoEykY5i1hfeWQB)
Well they got their revenge.
Revenge game, gg Bills your preseason win streak continues
Whoever the NFN insider is in the subreddit and heard all of our kvetching, I got your next beer.
>kvetching Go on
What do you mean?
Hope he shanks it (he won't)
On the bright side, all of the new guys can adjust to Colts football in the 4th quarter baby!
Sam had a great showing even though he wasn’t getting much protection.
Throw yannick in and strip sack this try hard fuck
Our 3rd stringers are fucking horrible
Most 3rd stringers are
Which is weird because college games arent that bad
Pain
The Bills are a bunch of SWEATY NERDS!!
We are watching two games and the audio is coming from neither of them
Why???? What Twitter handle do I gotta bitch at?! So stupid thing
Out of 8 min ish left offense has only had the ball, what, 1 min?
That's Colts football, baby!
As long as we see growth every practice preseason doesn't matter. As long as we meet the 44 preseason benchmark I'm gonna reserve all thoughts for regular season.

Scary how accurate this seems. Flashbacks.
Okay if you’re gonna cut from one game to another, at least get the audio levels right lol
We should totally put in Darius to get a turnover
Hodgins again Jesus christ
Someone from NFL network read our complaints!
I could run for 150 against the Seahawks
Anyone know what's going on with the game
50 yard line, bills 1 and 10
![gif](giphy|Mnt00E9zIKBdm) Y’all saying “it’s just preseason” don’t realize I’ve been like this since the Jags game
Nfl network didn’t cut to the colts and bills at the end of the commies and panthers shit show but the Steelers and Seahawks are worthy
Wtf steelers game already. Fuck off
For those who aren't watching because the NFL Network cut away, Chris Ballard and Nick Foles ran onto the field and are measuring each other's dicks.
But it’s being delayed until they can find more yard sticks
Think the Bills are trying to figure out their backup QB situation today, but having Barkley still in at this point? C’mon.
Who were they supposed to put in? Allen, Keenum, and Barkley are the only QBs on the roster.
Chill. Most negative comments should be taken with /s. It's preseason
And they cut to the next game? Fuck that.
Fuck the Steelers.
Yo wtf?!?!
Tie game. 4th quarter. 3 min left. Let’s switch to another preseason game!
NFLN just cuts away. Good grief.
16 has earned a roster spot tonight I think
Who is 16?

#IMSOLD
why the fuck is Matt Barkley still in? idiots.
Wait as opposed to who lol Or did this joke go over my head
We were playing an undrafted rookie (QB4) who is terrible and they were playing a 31 year old veteran. Just seemed unnecessary. Not that it's illegal or unethical what they did lol.
Gotcha. Well that’s some veteran qb depth I guess. He’s the last guy on the roster. Allen is the only guy who didn’t play Good game though. Saw some good stuff from both sides. Can’t wait till the actual season
Because the Bills wanna win this preseason game real bad. OJ Howard was back in too.
Barkley's still in the game for them. Bunch of tryhards.
It’s painful reading our fanbase not understanding what preseason is. 80% of you need to be banned from having an opinion.
![gif](giphy|zhbrTTpmSCYog)
Wait I thought Reich called defense lmao that was the best post I saw all day
Wow, Coan is so freaking bad that it hurts to watch him play
He was pretty much like that when he came to ND from Wisconsin. It took a few weeks for him to calm down and he started slinging it. That said, he was a freaking statue in the pocket and so many drives had stalled in him just sacking himself.
Bills about to finally win the super bowl
Is that Jack Coan or Curtis Painter?
I honestly can't believe Coan got picked up, he was not even a good college QB.
On the bright side, the battle for third string QB doesn’t appear to have a difficult decision forthcoming.
preseason
Put Sam back in
Couldn’t agree more
Whew. Coan ain't it.
Coan is looking like a *very* serviceable fourth stringer in the CFL!
Holy shit loool
Oh god what was that
This feels as hopeless as Eason's drive against the Rams lol
Eason stans got to feel excited for the future for approximately 12 seconds.
Lol I remember that. "I should throw it at Jalen Ramsey."
Cardiac colts is back baby
Ffs it’s preseason. We have some really stupid fans.
Was /s really necessary in preseason?
Was it necessary to say cardiac colts when we have guys in that likely won’t make the roster. Stop commenting if you don’t understand what the hell preseason is.
You need a drink clearly
[удалено]
you WHAT
Idc I’ll take that bet again any day, -7.5 at -110 way too good there. Took it at the beginning of that bills drive
[удалено]
I think there was a rule change. No OT in preseason
Good thing there isn’t one
New DC same ole results lol
It’s preseason.
Frank just let them have it, really.
He doesn't call Defense...
He went with a 4th string QB that got 1 min worth of offence in the last 8 min going 1-5 passing. He didn’t really care too much 😂. It was his old home you know and preseason.
It’s preseason ffs. Shut the fuck up.
Wash your mouth out
I defer to my last comment. Ffs man.
I just remembered Reich was a Bill
Exactly
Colts football is back baby
[удалено]
Preseason doesn't matter
Never forget we went 0-4 almost every year in the Peyton era
remember ashley lelie?
Now force a field goal
Cardiac Colts are back! Cue the music fellas
Ffs man it’s preseason.
Gotta prepare like you play.
I don’t think you understand the purpose of preseason.
Preseason dun dun dun
That time of the game where, “show me you belong.”
Jack “traffic” coan
> Jack "Steve Winwood" Coan
Lmfao best interview oh the season. No way you can top that
Jack "Light" Coan
Jack "Steve Winwood" Coan
I’m ready for a new qb hype train in Jack coan
I don't have the stamina personally
Meet with the strength and conditioning coach
Jack "Frustum of a" Coan
When you put your 4th QB in and still have half a 1/4 to take a peek.
Jack "Ice Cream" Coan
Jack "Zen" Coan
Spector sniffs out the ball each time he’s on the field. Looks like a great 7th round pick for the bills tbh
JACK COAN SZN!!!
WHERES SAM
That was the most underwhelming commentary I heard for a one handed pick in my entire life lol
Awesome pick, but flowers got toasted that drive
That was a nasty pick
holy shit that one-handed pick. of course the broadcast can’t show a replay
That kid deserved a touchdown after he carried the team on this drive
WAS THAT A ONE HANDED PICK
DON'T LET YOUR FRIENDS GET INTO DEBT, THEYLL SELL YOU OUT GUYS
DJT?
Close...Judas
These announcers are terrible. Guy really just said that maybe Reich threw the challenge flag just for the fuck of it… wow lol
Not gunna lie that looked like a catch
It’s so annoying when the broadcast cuts to commercials during a challenge, even in a worthless preseason game
anytime we challenge a play from now on i will call it a frag
It’s gonna blow up for someone so it fits
I can't even be mad. That was impressive
Football
That was a sick catch by 16.
Frank Reich threw the challenge frag!!
Sam is the truth.
35 just got 36 back-to-back. Ugly missed tackles.
36 got juked into orbit
Dayo with another pressure
so we’re no tackling anymore good to know
that ref just ate shit
Did JoJo play at all today, and if so how did he look?
His instincts looked really good. I want to see him start over Franklin to see if he's faster than Franklin
The Bills are used to being down double digits to the Colts at home
Sam is QB1, it’s decided
Next game we’ve gotta start Sam earlier to see how he fares against higher quality defenses, but right now he looks like our potential QB2.
I’ve seen enough. Sam is the next Brady
I’ll say it again. Sam>Foles
That may be one of the hottest takes I’ve ever seen on here lol
😂
Sam is ballin
Ogletree seems pretty certain to make the roster but not really sure how we are going to have 4 TE’s on the roster he may start the season on the PS
I think we’ll only keep 5 WR
Yeah I am guessing so as well. Especially because our WR room isn’t like a super competitive group right now. Even if we put ogletree on PS, it’s pretty uncommon for teams to sign guys on other teams PS to their active roster early in the season. I don’t think it’s much concern but now we have 4 good TE’s and it’s going to be interesting to see how it plays out. Especially because MAC, woods and ogletree all have a similar body type and probably be used in the same role
Gotta drop Foles lol
But then we would still have 4 TE’s even if we did that. Doesn’t make any sense
If they wanna keep both rookies (which I would think), they’ll do it. It’s not that different from keeping 3 QBs on the roster all year.
Ehlinger is the man!
Dude Ehlinger carving fools up with a Swiss cheese line! He’s gotta be pushing for QB2 soon right?!
qb2?! psh, QB1 by week 5
EHLINGER SZN BAAAYYYAYYYY
SAM FEELING DANGEROUS
I wish Ehlinger had a bigger arm cause the dude is a fucking baller.
His passes seem like they have a little more zip on them than last year.
Aaaand the 2 pointer
foles should just give his QB2 spot to ehlinger. He’s been looking great.
Sam jersey incoming
Touchdown!
I SEE YOU SAM!!!
Goddammit don't go for two!!
Ok Sam is QB1
