  1. True. But they have brought in other backups (Brandsteader comes immediately to mind) who I thought would be much more capable, but they released him and kept Curtis?

    "More knowledgable about how the team plays"? Ok. I'm not sure I really understand that reasoning as anyone is capable of learning if given time, and it's not like he was needed tomorrow.

    He has been on the team almost three years now and I have to believe they are keeping him for a reason other than that. I'm just not understanding why.

    I would like to see him play in a way that makes sense to me on why he is still here.

    In my opinion they are kind of boxed in with him,he has been in the system for 3 years.If they had not invested that time in him he probaly would have been released.They have no one on the roster who knows the system.They will never admit it but polian must be dissapointed in him.

  2. With a decent veteran backup qb we could win a couple of games if peyton went down.Not for the season but for 4 games or so,maybe go 2-2 and not kill us.With the guy we have now that would be a pipedream.We have seen a guy like aj feeley have limited success with philly that one year, when mcnabb got hurt.So to say we should not try to improve the back up qb position is not very smart.Now is a guy like that available?

  3. Really is that how it happened in the Ravens game in the playoffs? As i recall the defense didnt need any lead during the superbowl run... Its obvious the defense is much better on paper. And come time for the Reg season the defense will look much better than it has in years.

    wake up and smell the coffee, that was 4 years ago,were talking about now.P.S games are not played on paper ask the cowboys and redskins.I love this team but our d will not be an elite unit,and does not have to be for us to win a super bowl.If our d is in the middle somewhere,with our offense we will be tough to beat.

    Automatic wins just cause of defense....

    Browns, Bucs, Cheifs, Bengals, Falcons, Panthers

    Now You look at the division games and you telling me the colts cant win none of those games without manning? lol smh. you ppl are mad.

    dude,your tripping.Automatic wins because of our defense?Our defense can not win games on it's own,it is designed to play with a lead.Peyton get's us up early and freeney and mathis do the rest.

  5. Peyton is not a religion he's a football player, that being said it only proves my point. Peyton had the whole offseason to prepare for the season yet he still threw up alot of eggs his rookie season, with time he became the player that he is. On the other hand Painter- no playtime with the 1st team, shoved into a game with a top ranked defense, goes the next game to play in a blizzard..... yea he's a horrible QB.

    Im not singing praises of painter its just ridiculous to see so many fans bash a player after so little playtime.

    You are singing his praises,as a matter of fact your the only one who is singing his praises.P.S to myself and others here peyton is a religion.Were just here to kneel at his altar.

  6. That is true and with TIME painter will significantly reduce those mistakes... we cannot forget peytons rookie season now just imagine if he was in painters position just pushed into that game, does anyone here honestly believe he would have done any better? ppl need to understand that being a QB especially in the nfl is not an easy task but after seeing the little that painter did in the rams game he looks calm and will only progress.

    Putting painter and peyton in the same sentence is unholy.You keep singing the praises of this guy,why?Peyton was thrown into the fire,first practice on.

  7. I would love to see a real speedster added to the roster to keep teams honest. imagine what someone with breakaway speed could do with peyton throwing to them.

    Garcon is pretty fast,maybe not a real speedster but fast.
