The offense kept putting the Colts defense on the field, and the Indianapolis defense made a couple of big mistakes in key moments.
Insiders Joel A. Erickson and Nate Atkins recap the Indianapolis Colts historic loss to the Minnesota Vikings.INDIANAPOLIS — The loss, the way it happened, like a dam bursting open at the seams, stuck with defensive coordinator Gus Bradley.
“Let’s talk about the Dallas game,” Bradley said Tuesday. “There were 14 plays at the end of the game that we really took a hard look at, and felt like, ball-ready, we’re ready, we’re down, Cobra demeanor, everybody’s on the same page . It felt like we weren’t quite ready at times, and they quick-snapped us a couple of times. We just weren’t ready to play ball.”
The Colts forced a three-and-out on the first series of the second half. Rodney Thomas II picked off Kirk Cousins in the red zone in the fourth quarter. The defense took full advantage of the gift given to Indianapolis when the referees blew the whistle early on Chandon Sullivan’s fumble recovery for a touchdown, stopping Cousins cold to maintain the lead.
“We had a miscommunication,” Bradley said. “The Mike linebacker didn’t run with it, and he was wide open.”
