For some reason our third down pass offense was really bad in the last 5 drives. But that seemed a lot more an execution problem than Reid. Too many sacks.

the horizontal game with the bubbles/flats/rpo is a huge part of Reids spread. The defense has to respect the flats when any of their 3wr can take a screen for 8+. They didnt throw too many of them (if any) so Indy could squat on those 3rd and longs. Thats when the rush gets to mahommes. 3rd and 5 or less, good luck stopping this spread.
