Colts VS Redskins predictions

My feeling on this one is it could be a blow out.  Having Allen and Cherilus back with Reitz at guard I think Herron and company will be able to run the football. If that happens then I say we'll smoke em because there will be too much to defend.  I don't think that secondary of theirs matches up very well with our guys.  I know they went into Dallas and beat the Cowboys, but I think the Cowboys are a little bit of a different team than us.  Just like we saw in the Eagles game yesterday, the Cowboys get into a lot of trouble if they can't run the football, and Romo is being harrased. 

 

They are a great run blocking team, but not so great at pass blocking if Romo is forced to stand back there and chuck the ball up on obvious passing downs.  When that happens to the Cowboys, if things are not going so great with getting the ball to Dez Bryant and maybe Witten then the Cowboys don't have much of anything else. I even think we will see this to be true when we play the Cowboys assuming Vontae can stop Dez Bryant, and assuming(big assumption) we can stop the run( I have more hope since the Eagles bad run defense stopped them). I think Cole Beasley will get shut out against Darius Butler, and the other guy will be shut out against Toler.   On the flip side if the Colts end up in this situation against the Redskins, we still have enough weapons to put up 34 points, and I think that is especially true if the defense is playing well. 

 

Any given Sunday, but I think even if the Colts running game is shut down we have enough weapons and mismatches on them in their secondary to get a decisive win. As long as the defense is playing well, and we are not turning the ball over I think it may start out tight to begin, but as the game moves along it will be a decisive win for us.  I certainly think it will play out this way IF we can get the Redskins running game under control.
