  1. I can't stand the Steelers but I admire their coach. He is an excellent coach, mature beyond his years with a lot of charisma. It also doesn't hurt that he is from my neck of the woods. :thmsup: Anyway, good article below. Coach Tomlin will definitely have his team prepared on Sunday and though the Steelers are heavy favorites, you can rest assured that he will not allow them to take this game lightly. He knows that the Colts still have capable players and he also is an eye witness to what Collins can do when he is on. So I hope our boys are ready to execute and play with some intensity this week.

  2. The Colts don't expect a sore throwing shoulder to keep Kerry Collins out Sunday night against Pittsburgh.

    It's unclear when the 38-year-old Collins was injured during last week's loss to Cleveland.

    I think that would be cool but I don't think it will help us much. Execution and line play is our problem. Manning is a computer of football knowledge, I just don't think he can transmit what he can do to someone else.

  3. We have to convert in short yardage. We have to score touchdowns in the redzone.

    These are the two keys, I think. Especially the redzone offense. It's like what we try to do to teams happened to us, the Browns bent but didn't break and we had 4 FGs off of nice looking drives.

    Not going to win with that.

  4. Well, I'm going to go against the grain of this thread and say the Colts will be 1-2 after Sunday. And not only will the Colts win but it will be a convincing win, seven to 10 points. The Colts definitely aren't the same without Manning, but football is about match-ups and the Colts match up well with Pittsburgh.

    You have Roethlisberger who likes to stand in the pocket and double pump the ball looking for a bigger play and two tackles that will not be able to handle Freeney and Mathis by themselves and two first time starters at guard. Mendenhall is not running the ball well so far because the guards are not able to open holes up and Mendenhall is not creating his own running lanes. The receivers vs the Colts secondary is in Pittsburgh favor but the big play ability of is negated by the rush.

    The Colts O vs the D. Collins will struggle again, but I doubt if he is going to go nearly an entire half without completing a pass again. The Steelers D right now is giving up a lot of shorter stuff in the middle of the field and that is one area where Collins does half way descent. Plus the Steeler D is not playing against the run well. I know most of it was against the Ravens but they have given up 4.6 ypc. Even in the Seattle game there were some huge lanes that Lynch did not hit, plus Lynch is not that good and the Seattle oline is really bad at run blocking. Part of the reason is Hampton has not looked good in the plays I've watched, he's pretty much being handled by one man. So look for even more Addai/Carter.

    People can call me a homer or whatever but the Colts are not as bad as the score has looked and, like I stated at the beginning, I don't believe there is a way for Collins to play almost the entire 2nd half without a completion.

    Coffee, where can one get some of your enthusiasm?

  5. Please the retractable roof is there for football and nothing else. Other non football events are not going to pick Lucas because the roof can open, they want the security and set environment an enclosed stadium offers. This was a waste of tax payer dollars like no other in Indiana history. Really it is open like what 3 times a year at best?

    Have you been to a game with the roof open?
