From a Colts film guy – you guys had a GREAT plan on both sides of the ball Sunday

I gained a lot of respect for your coaching over there from watching the all-22:

The Texans played nearly the entire game with 2 TE and 2 WR, forcing the Colts to play their "base" defense the entire game. This means that with Shaq Leonard out, the Colts were forced to keep their LB2, LB3, & LB4 on the field for MANY more plays than the Colts expected.

Along with the coverage mistakes forced by this (those two OJ Howard TDs), it kept nickel Kenny Moore playing in the base defense, and playing outside – which is not his strong suit.

On defense your "simple" cover-2 defense had specific plans in place for many of the Colts common routes. And CLEARLY they were coached specifically how to deal when the Colts went to wildcat.
