I am amazed how anyone could think Tony bleeds blue. Most NFL coaches coach for many teams and they have little loyality to a team especially one that has few of "their" players or "staff "remaining on it. If you ever see Reggie on TV he'll be bleeding blue. I suspect the same is true for many former players who's careers turned around 1 team or who's body of work for one team is overwhelming.
Coaches don't bleed any color for any team, GM's like BP don't bleed for a team, and self promoting former players like dieon sanders didn't even bleed for a team when they were playing ( too wrapped up in their self promotion).
Most coaches and Front office people in the NFL are like prostitutes and when they are not paid anymore it's clear that they have no reason to return affection......with a few exceptions if the business relationship extends far enough.

28-23 Colts win.....Dallas has trouble getting pressure early on Andrew and when Dallas finally does get some pressure on Andrew he runs to daylight and breaks their back. 21 & 28 get a few 3rd down stops that force Dallas to take field goals and that seals the cowboys fate. Please santa please..............
-
Dallas is 28th in sacks but only because they had 4 last week......we may not be elite but neither are they.....if Dallas generates pressure against our subpar line they will win....if Dallas does not generate pressure.....Luck will put a lot of points on the scoreboard and the Colts will have a good chance to win.....either way the game will not be decided by what fans on this board think.

Pressure Romo and their un game as well with every blitz in the playbook and a few that aren't, confuse Romo and rely on the corners to make enough plays.

Peps play calling? Colts ranked 2nd in the NFL in offense. Explain please. I would like to know how a team that's #2 in offense is hampered by the OC.
Too many touches for T-Rich?Maybe?
-
Richardson should be used as a fullback only to block or catch an occasional pass. With running backs it doesn't matter where you are drafted Zack Stacy, Adrian Foster....these guys were not highly though of at draft time but they produced when they played.

time to shine Andrew, time to shine!

Colts by less than 7

I'm sure Dukes would have said last week the the Jets can't stop the Steelers but then they did.....any given week....so it's a stupid thing to say.

I think he'll go beast mode and if he does throw a pick it won't be a game decider........

It would have to be players from the middle 70's teams with Bert Jones, Bruce Laird, Lydell Mitchell, John Dutton, Stan White....those guys

Step 1. Steal the underpants
Step 2. ....
Step 3. Beat the Pats
You're thinking about the 49ers when Steve Young was the QB. Not all NFL QB's wear magic underpants.

No need, reality proves Bayless wrong all the time.

I would be curious (impossible to honestly know at this present time) if Colts' fans will feel an intense rivalry with the Patriots when Brady and BB are gone.
They are the two constants in this situation.

i'm curious too.....when BB leaves will you change your picture?

If the Pats are aggressive I say "paint the fence", "wax on, wax off", and the Colts should do that stand on one leg thingy too....

why can't you address the issue instead of trying to mock me? are you 10 ? any way how does having luck run the ball around 3-4 times a game and only running when there is a huge hole and getting down quick have to do with putting luck at line backer .
All i was saying was use his gifts to make the offense more dynamic . using luck like aron rogders making him throw on the run more often as well could help luck cut down on his turnovers if instead of forcing throws if theres space in front of him run , there have been a lot of plays where luck had huge running lanes to get an easy first and instead tries to force it between 3 defenders.....
I believe pagano is in lucks ears telling him to stay in the pocket , when pep came here he said the read option wasn't out of the question then pagano said not gonna happen.
Oh come on, I'm sure that everyone who read my post knows I am dead serious. Did you even google Andrew Luck makes tackle after interception?
Psst.....never use the words "read option" + Luck again in the same post and I promise to take you seriously for as long as I may live (and good news i am 60 not 10 probably so I will be dead pretty soon but probably not before Andrew retires hopefully so help me out by following that 1 simple rule and I will behave).

How much of his book did he dedicate to Dungy's Christian faith and his obsession over the Pats? Any good gossip on the owner's "suppliers" ?
Tony is a secret muslim born in Africa some place and he was Jim's supplier in college or wait a minute maybe I'm thinking of somebody else.....
-
Brady's "future" is limited to the near future, he's already on the down elevator and Andrew is on the express up elevator. I'm sure Pats fans will have a response to this but your era is ending soon and that's the way it is.
-
I doubt they're interested. The past two years, we brought in UDFA kickers. Both guys are now playing for other teams, and well. We probably won't be signing a veteran kicker once AV retires.
When AV retires it will be as they used to say on SNL...."It's Pat"

That's why I'm eating clam chowda all week. When I eat clam chowda during Patriots week we have won. Not always, but it's helped in the past
Really cause I've been chowing on the Boston baked beans all week in an effort to find the Patriots weakness but so far all I've discovered is my own gas-tric weakness so maybe I should rethink my strategy? Are you sure this works?

Look i was a pep hater last year but this year i think he has done a great job. That being said i believe the colts are wasting lucks talents running the ball . he runs as fast as cam newton and runs hard like tebow .
Luck is already the most hit Qb in the league he is big and durable why not run a couple read options plays a game ? It would help the run game by making defenders freeze up . It would make this offense even more dynamic and harder to defend.
have luck run some more bootlegs and designed runs this offense would be hard to defend.
[ /youtube]Even better, let's turn him into a two way player!!!! Andrew as starting QB and ILB (have you seen his tackling highlights!!!!WoW). Plus think of all the energy he'll save not having to run off the field all the time. I can't wait for this, plus we'll have an extra roster spot with one less linebacker. And.....Think of the salary cap savings! I think this idea is win-win-win-win.....................

Maybe Pagano wants to develop a new form of football called "platoon football!!!!" starting with platoon centers and extending the concept to platoon offensive line! Since in baseball the platoon system is based on lefty/righty I'll need to get inside Chuck's mind to decifer what this platoon system is based on. (if only I could get my hands on an enigma decoder) Maybe it has something to do with the astrological signs??????

1. Turnovers even or to the Colts favor.
2. Colts special teams outplay the Patriots special teams.
If the Pats outplay us again on special teams they win going away (as is usually the case) but if the Colts outplay the Patriots on special teams (and this is very possible from a talent/performance so far standpoint this year) we win a fairly close game.
Many aspects of these two teams are competitive and the talent level(s) is sufficient for either team to win.
We have a couple of intangibles in our favor, home field and crowd, a budding superstar who's only going to get better vs an aging superstar who's already reached his apex of performance.
It's not a sure thing or an easy win but it's definitely doable.
-
Denver's special teams sucked when we play the Pats we have to win big the special teams game....which is easier said than done....but as Pat has said our special teams are trying to be the best ever.

Colts lead, then hang on at the end with one last critical stop, 24-21.
