last year has no bearing on this game.

How is that being dense?

It is relevant because past performance is a good indicator of future performance. The Chiefs are the same team as last year with better coaching and a descent game manager qb. Obviously you don't get to carry over any advantage points wise, other than knowing we have won there, against those players (mostly) just last season in a dire situation. I don't want to overstate things but I find it to be as good an indicator as you can ask for all things considered.

Colts have beaten these guys a lot, going back to 1990. The colts are 11-2 vs the chiefs including 3 playoff victories for the horse shoes. We are that guy to them, we got their number on speed dial. Larry Johnson was supposed to break the rushing record in 2006, the no punt Game 2004 in KC with a Preist Holmes fumble looming large, and how could we forget the bone chlling game in 1996 the kicker was frozen (literally). Len Elliot, I think.

It's so hard to predict this game. If the Colts come out with the chip on their shoulder they showed week three against the 49ers...- that team has a solid chance. Avoid stubborn repeated attempts to establish the run game and go three and out five times in a row- that has got to be the first objective...

it was in Indy last year.

They have a much better qb and much better coaching. A better team. Last year, especially with upgrades at those spots, means nothing

The game was in KC http://www.nfl.com/schedules/2012/REG/COLTS

and the team is more or less the same outside of adding a very average to below average QB. We can agree to disagree about relevance, but not the FACT the game was in KC against mostly the same players, almost a year to the day later.

I think this game will be a good measuring stick as to what sort of success we might reasonably hope for in the playoffs.  I am very much hoping that the Colts will once again surprise a "big gun" and pull off the upset, in convincing fashion.  Then win out, combined with a Bengal loss and a Patriots loss in the last two games, to give the Colts the second seed and the first round playoff bye.

Because Donald Brown can break down the best D in the league.  Lol, c'mon now.  We need our o line to make some blocks for any RB in our backfield to make some runs.

Kansas City does not have the best D in the league.  The last few weeks they have looked average.  If they can't get a pass rush they tend to get toasted.

Depending upon who starts and sees the majority of the snaps at various positions, I could see us potentially pulling it off, or I could see a repeat of Cincinnati, St. Louis and Arizona.  Crappy deal for them that they might blow us out,  then have to travel to Indy in two weeks.

the line is +7 colts so a win would be considered an "upset". 

 

my predictions..

 

We score 3 1st half TD's and lead the whole 1st half. 21-13 at half

 

Luck throws 300+ yards and 3 TD's, Trent runs one in from close. 

 

Charles has an amazing game as usual but we gain an early lead where Alex Smith can't bring the Chiefs back

 

After this win, Colts can realistically get the #2 seed with some help, are contenders again, and look to make a run

 

Let's go 10-5!!

Kudos to your correct call! Go Colts!

      Potential/Average/Concern

      By RollerColt · Posted

      Thank you. You guys are too kind, but I truly appreciate the support.    Perhaps I am being too hard on myself… But my point still stands that anyone who makes it to the NFL, whether practice squad or starter, has achieved something prestigious that only a rare few ever achieve.    Over a million high schoolers play. Of those only 7.8 percent move on to play in college.    Over 80,000 people play in college. Only 0.4 percent make it to opening day in the NFL.    Only 2,016 players make it to NFL rosters.

      A Write Up On Raekwon Davis' Potential Impact

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      Davis had a very good rookie season after being drafted in the 2nd round out of Ohio State (I believe).   Graded in the 70’s against both the run and pass.      But his last three years have been disappointing, as he’s graded in the mid-50’s.   The reason I’m so interested in this signing, is (A) I’m sure it was heavily influenced by the new DL coach, Partridge.   And (B) we’re paying him 2/14.  I don’t recall that kind of money ever being given to a basic backup before.   Don’t think Davis is here to push Stewart, the Colts just signed him to 3/39.  That tells me the Colts defensive staff sees him differently.   I don’t know what the plan the staff has come up with for Davis, but I’m looking forward to watching it play out.

      What I’m reading on him the Pacers did get good value. Looks like he will need time to develop but he is in the right situation to do that. The pacers are stacking some quality young players that will prove to be more outstanding depth or assets if they choose to make a trade. Very exciting time for the team right now.

      I’m not a religious person, but since you’re an educator I think you’re doing Gods work!   In these crazy insane times we’re all living in you’re doing one of the toughest jobs on earth.  And you’re teaching perhaps the most difficult generation to deal with.     From a distance it feels like you’re being very unfair to you.  I’m hoping in time you’ll see yourself in a completely different light.    Someone highly thought of.  A leader in the community.  A protector of young minds.   I couldn’t admire a teacher more.
