Former Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee ripped his old team on social media after they were eliminated from playoff contention following a loss to the New York Giants.
Former Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee criticized his old team harshly on Sunday after they were eliminated from playoff contention in a loss to the New York Giants. Indianapolis had three turnovers and allowed four Drew Lock touchdown passes in the 45-33 defeat. The Colts dropped to 7-9 on the season and were officially out of contention.
McAfee wrote a scathing post on X, criticizing the organization, ripping those who tried to get him 'booed out of the city' and announcing he will not renew his season tickets. He wrote: 'A blind person could see the red flags on this team.. Work ethic questions, NEVER happens on good teams.. Preparation commitment questions, NEVER happens on good teams.. Late to meetings, NEVER happens on good teams.. Late to/skipping treatment, NEVER happens on good teams.. The franchise QB (Anthony Richardson) tapped out of a game.. on 3rd down.. in the red zone.. because he was tired… NEVER HAPPENED in the history of the NFL,' McAfee wrote. 'That’s literally the only thing you need to tell someone (who knows ball) and they could tell you everything about this team…' He wrote that if a franchise quarterback left in the middle of a game because he was tired, the 'immediate response' would be that the team has 'no chance.' 'And to the surprise of nobody.. that was the response by everybody who’s ever played/coached the game before but.. Colts blogs and fans who have been covering the Colts since 2020 and more recent knew better than everybody… Started personally attacking me and trying to kick me out of town,' McAfee continued. McAfee also criticized Richardson for tapping out of a game in the red zone because he was tired. 'When I said Joe Flacco gives us a better chance to win than AR immediately after the tap out.. I would’ve said whatever backup QB we had on the roster. That can’t be what the face of your team is doing.. just can’t be.. and to a bigger aspect of it all, somehow AR thought it was ok to do that,' McAfee added.
