I must admit after today I am not very optimistic about the playoffs, but to be serious It is a new season and anything can happen, the 2008 giants were 5-7 at one point of their season and went on to win the superbowl, Mannings one superbowl was done with a team that did not look promising and had one of the worst regular season run defenses in NFL history, only to go into the playoffs and have one of the best playoff run defenses in Nfl history and take the crown. One game left against the Titans, if Cincy beats Denver we are 4th seed, if they lose we can still take the 3rd. Its not over yet guys I am as upset today as all of you but we are still in it, pags and pep need to get their shi** together though.

The Colts SB team was undefeated in the Dome & the 3rd seed miraculously afforded Colts two home games in that playoff run...

IF the offense can break out of it's funk then I will have better confidence. If they can play like we know they are capable of playing it will assist the defense in playing effectively.   I doubt we'll see another offensive line in the AFC that shuts our pass rush down as much as the Cowboys did.  I still like the direction the run defense is going, I didn't think it was all that bad today and it certainly didn't look anything like the Patriots game.

We are a young team not sure what you are going to get week to week. If we win the first playoff game at home I could see us going on a run. There isn't a team in the AFC head and shoulders above the rest. I think we are capable of beating any of them if we get it going again.

Well, I daresay Pagano literally p...ped on the table in a way, they were saving players for the playoff so we shouldn't derive conclusions from this single game. Colts weren't for real yesterday, and I'm pretty * off about it!

 

This team is what it is and was before yesterday. Lack of serviceable O-line and running game will determine this teams off-seasons, so these are areas to be improved. FYI: Herron isn't the right answer for RB position.

I think half of you are delusional and the other half need serious consoling because this team if not going to the super bowl. Did you not See what NE, Steeler, and  Cowboys did to us. We litterly brought life back into the Steeler playoff hopes. NE we might as well just call that a presason game because they just ran down our throat using the same stupid play over and over and over again. Or look a Trap omg here come another trap play oh look a trap play. Tom Brady could have yelled there plays at us and we would still be confused. Imagine when if we play Denver they are actually running the ball and they are pretty darn good at it too. PM going to have a field day on us. And look at River enough said He beat us when he had a turn ACL this time it just a bad back.

Luck is our only hope.  With Pep calling plays and always playing catchup because of our slow starts and suspect def and OL problems, who the hell knows.  We always have slow starts and our defense is trash against real playoff caliber teams.  Our only hope now is the connection between Luck and Hilton.  I love how every year is the same problem.  Players need to be held  accountable. Start calling people out.  I hate just blowing out bad teams because it proves nothing.

 

Slow starts: Broncos, Patriots, Steelers, Ravens, Even bengals & browns, Cowboys

 

Calling all coaches, do a better job.

We hear the same thing every week, but nothing ever changes and I hope Irsay realizes this before its too late.

 

Dream team of coaches:

HC - John Harbargh

OC - Josh McDaniels/Joe Philbin

DC - REX * RYAN
