Up/Down

Caldwell is down

Jim Caldwell’s decisions on when to punt: That Adam Vinatieri doesn’t have a booming leg means long-range field goals aren’t going to be an option. But when Caldwell calls for punts from the Houston 38 yard-line in the first half and the Houston 34 in the second half and winds up with touchbacks both times, the Colts net 18 and 14 yards in field position. Justin Tryon botched chances to down both. But the risk/reward made terrible trade-offs possible and the Colts got them.
