Sportsworld is right. 100%

 

Colts are Terrible. We have absolutely no chance because we only beat a dreadful team in the playoffs.

 

Patriots are amazing and have a mind-blowing secondary. Our secondary is horrific. Vontae should retire.

 

Lets all join a cult and kill ourselves before Sunday. 

 

(Also why are people talking about Indy and Denver? Isn't this the Patriots thread)

Right now as in the last few games where Manning had the flu and for the first time ever (with the Broncos) sat out multiple practices in a row due to his thigh?

The guy has a few crappy games, with known illness/injury issues, and people are talking like he somehow just fell off a cliff and went from putting up 130+ passer ratings to ready for the old folks home overnight. The guys old and was banged up and they didn't put the onus on him to throw 50 passes a game the last third of the season. Makes sense to me. I just don't think the issues/weaknesses you see harped on in this thread are real at this point.

The last 4 games were very non Peyton like. We all understand he was sick and had a thigh issue. He's is old and the arm hasn't looked the same this year. But listen, we are all pretty level headed over here when it comes to match ups. I would not be offended by anything said because it's not even that bad. Could be worse. None of us here think Denver will go easy and many of us aren't too confident in winning next weekend. I just hope it's a good game.

I honestly think we can give Denver a run for their money. We will have to put up 35 plus points to win... IMO the game is going to come down whether we can limit them in the red zone. If we can turn a few of their possessions into field goals instead of touchdowns its a different ball game. They are going to get yards and drive. It's Peyton Manning. But in the end... I say Colts win 38-35.

And while you were stopping Murray (and his broken hand), Romo put four TDs on you.

 

I think it's going to be a good game, and without a doubt the Colts have a shot, but CJ has been killing it and I think PM, with a week off to rest up from the flu and thigh injury, is going to put a lot of premature smack talkers back in their place.  

Because you're not a premature smack talker?

Peyton typically doesn't do well in the playoffs. We have a lot more experience with that than Broncos fans.

Well since he's been with the Broncos he has gone to the playoffs 3 times and lost to the Ravens that went on to win the SB and then last year took the team to the SB so you must be talking about when he was with the Colts right. :???: :dunno:  When he was with the Colts  he took the team to the playoffs quite a few times and won one SB so he hasn't done too badly  you can't win them all. this is just my opinion on the subject. :)

Point is he typically doesn't play all that well in the Playoffs. In 2006 he was pretty average in the playoffs. He had a great second half vs NE, and Rhodes should have been Super Bowl MVP. He's 11-12 in the playoffs...sub .500  (.478) His team loses 53% of the time.

 

He isn't unbeatable in the playoffs. It's okay to admit it. My sons middle name is Peyton FYI...I love the guy, I'm just giving my opinion and using facts to back it up.

 

He hasn't won a Superbowl in Denver yet so it's still okay to say he's not great in the Playoffs.

Hopefully, "Playoff Peyton" will show up.  Interceptions, etc.  If the D can get something going and throw him off of his rhythm, they can win.  Of course, Colts' O has to produce.  

Have you forgotten the SB he won for the Colts and the fact that there was NEVER a D that could stop the opposing team?

      Colts Select Laiatu Latu Edge UCLA

      Yeah, Ebukam almost looks clumsy next to Latu. He's just so fluid.

      How many games will the Colts win in 2024?

      By Chucklez · Posted

      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...

      What about Leonard at safety?

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      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….

      Man I love me some Maniac, but it won't happen, and he's too slow after his surgeries.
