and not only that, Luck was playing terrible at that time...hard to judge your own defense when the opp QB is spraying the ball around like that

Yeah. I wondered if maybe we didn't challenge because Sean wanted to keep the defense on the field? I don't know. The replay was clear as you say.

The good news is that Sunseri has plenty of time to learn. Other than ST, he won't be out there, even in a dime. He's the 8th or 9th guy

No doubt. Probably why Chuck chose to leave Luck in there longer than anticipated. Indy never really got to any rhythm offensively.

Credit NO good defensive play.

I did have a take away moment while watching the game.

Last night was the first time in a long while that I not only hoped the opposing QB would drop back but was excited to see him do it. Not sure if our run defense or knowing that every pass is being thrown into a flock of ball hawks.

Loved the hard hitting sure fire tackles by Bush and Vaccaro

Notice how they had Luck play into the third quarter and Drew was done in the first

It was exciting to me that our defense carried over the good play from last year. Now it's time to improve on it.

I was thinking the same thing. In a real game, that red flag would've flown the second the ref's arms started out sideways.
