It was a nice win against a team we already dominated in the regular season with just a mediocre QB that missed his number 1 receiver and tight end. Not taking away anything but Colts looked good against average teams and now have to proof they can beat the big guys. Still chances are there and Peyton Manning always had his problems in the playoffs especially after a bye weak...

I like our chances, just because of the emotional component involved to it. Peyton won't admit it, but it'll be a huge game for him, and we all know how Peyton is in huge postseason games. That gives us a fighting chance

That is part of the reason why I wanted Denver to avoid Indy because of Manning's emotions . I could tell it bothered him last year and it probably did this year . The colts and Denver are both completely different teams from week one . Should be an interesting matchup nonetheless .

Colts secondary played a below average Bengals team with no real WR's today that hasn't won a playoff game in 20+ years.

Bengals had no AJ Green or Jermaine Gresham.

That doesn't change the fact that the secondary is still one of our strengths. That's why the pats ran it down our throat and didn't bother throwing the ball

Talib/Harris isn't as good as Revis/Browner.

Lol browner ? The guy that holds all the time ? He can be had in coverage ... Oh please . Revis is good but CHJ graded out as the top corner according to Profootballfocus . The key with Talib is can he stay healthy ?

    • Yeah, Ebukam almost looks clumsy next to Latu. He's just so fluid.
    • Did Hou actually get that much better? This really does remain to be seen. I am of the opinion that the signing of Diggs is a signing that has been made about 2 years too late. He won't be bad, but he isn't a top 10 WR in the NFL anymore. I wouldn't put him as any more dangerous that Pittman, so WR's are a push. We have the better RB, Mixon is great and all, but he is not JT. We have the better Oline, and it isn't even close. TE's are a push, we have a lot of upside, but until it is realised im very "meh" on our TEs. QB - I would argue that Stroud is probably more likely to regress to the mean in year 2 vs improve. That rookie season of his was a bit silly, and they had an easier schedule last season too. If he really does build on last year and get even better, then our entire discourse here is probably irrelevant as we will have another Mahomes level QB on our hands to deal with in the AFC and within the AFC South no less. So unless Richardson is also a Mahomes level talent in that scenario, we are done for anyways. To me, our success in this coming season comes down to 2 groups on this entire team. 1. The QB (because... duh) 2. Our DBs. If we even get average play from the DBs, I think this team has the ability to win the whole damned thing (supposing Richardson stays healthy and is what we all hope he is). I would also argue that Houston are paper thin. If they lose a OL starter, Mixon or even one of their starting WRs.... they have a very big drop off. And injuries happen in the NFL. Just sayin...
    • If he wasn’t fast enough or athletic enough anymore for linebacker, then he’s not going to be able to cut it at Safety where speed , quickness, athleticism are even more important.    Wish it wasn’t so…. 
    • could he be another bob sanders at that position?
    • Man I love me some Maniac, but it won't happen, and he's too slow after his surgeries.
