I have to agree with this piece in this morning's Indianapolis Star. What the Colts displayed on Thursday night was not Dungyball, in fact it was the exact antithesis of how Coach Dungy wants the game played,
Not littering the field with turnovers, especially in the red zone.Yes, yes, yes. Now, let's see if we can keep it from happening again against the Titans next Sunday.Not allowing a 12-yard sack on third down with less than a minute to play, turning a potential game-tying 36-yard field goal into a 48-yarder.
Not wasting a robust ground game.
Not suffering one defensive breakdown after another.
Not allowing a drive to a field goal just before halftime in what wound up being a three-point game.
Not squandering the opportunity to ruin defending Super Bowl champion New England's rousing send-off into the 2004 season Thursday night at Gillette Stadium by taking inefficiency to the extreme in a 27-24 loss to the Patriots.
On Friday, Dungy praised the Colts for their energy and effort.
It was wasted, though, by "non-production," he quickly added. "It was one of those nights where we self-destructed."
