Shane Steichen yelling. Gardner Minshew in uniform
Every now and then in sports, there’s a player who makes a simple mistake at the worst possible time and they will be remembered for a long time because of it.

We had a case of this during Saturday’s game between the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts as running back Tyler Goodson’s dropped pass on fourth down led Indy to a heartbreaking 23-19 defeat in their regular season finale.

 

The Colts were facing a 4th-and-1 situation with their season on the line as head coach Shane Steichen shockingly had Jonathan Taylor and Zack Moss off the field.

Quarterback Gardner Minshew threw a pass behind Goodson, and although it touched his hands, he would drop it.

A video has since emerged on social media that has fans going crazy as it shows the Colts head coach on the sideline telling Gardner Minshew that it was his fault.

 

The big difference here is that while he told Minshew that in that clip, that comment came as a result of a different play but it did not stop people from thinking it was that crucial fourth down.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Gardner Minshew completed 13 of his 24 passes for 142 yards in the team’s 23-19 loss to the Houston Texans.

He struggled to move the ball through the air as the team mostly dominated Houston on the ground.

Despite the loss, Minshew did an excellent job in relief of rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson as he helped the team to finish with a 9-8 record. Minshew finishes up his year with 3,305 passing yards and a 15 to nine touchdown-to-interception ratio.
