Colts' Kenny Moore II ridicules team's effort in loss to Bills

Indianapolis Colts cornerback Kenny Moore II questioned the team's overall effort Sunday following a 30-20 loss to the Buffalo Bills.
"I don't think everybody's going as hard as possible and, obviously, it's showing," Moore told reporters, via ESPN. "I'm not the type to sugarcoat it. Honestly, I don't think the urgency is there. I don't think the details are there.
"I don't see everything correlating from meetings to practice to the games, and it shows."
Quarterback Joe Flacco, who replaced the No. 4 overall pick from a year ago Anthony Richardson as the starter last week, threw an interception on the first two offensive series of the game – the second of which was returned for a touchdown.
Flacco finished with three interceptions and was sacked four times. Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw for 280 yards, and Buffalo ran for 135 yards as a team.

"You've got to define yourself. You've got to define the identity of the team," said Moore, who recorded his first interception of the season Sunday. "We've got to look ourselves in the mirror and ask ourselves how bad we want it. And, honestly, it's (about) turning the page. ... The thing that's frustrating is, you're letting things leak into another week.
"You're only as great as your last performance. But once we step out on the field again, you've got the opportunity to change that narrative. But to go out and (make) the same mistakes over and over, I think that's what drives me insane."
Moore has spent his entire NFL career (since 2017) with the Colts and made the 2021 Pro Bowl.
"We've just got to start addressing it and not sugarcoat it or beat around the bush," he said. "I think that's what we are lacking. And, honestly, year to year, it's the same thing."
