The Jets got some respect today. It doesn't make them anything near a likely Super Bowl winner. There is a difference. You've never respected a team you didn't think could win a championship? Never respected a horse you didn't think could win a race? The two are not related in a necessarily linear way.
I don't get it. Just tell me why you'd be shocked if we beat the Colts even though we just beat San Diego.

I would only be shocked if Stover doesn't break his leg in pre-game warmups...

The Colts could lay down again to get a better draft pick

I'm not a Colts fan (Eagles) but I love watching Manning play. This should be a real good matchup with the Colts offense against the Jets defense.

Most of you know - Colts fan I am. With that said I am tickled pink for the Jets and there fans (Ateam). What a great game this should be and no I would not be shocked if the Jets beat my team. They have a GREAT defense and can run the ball.

Congrats to the Jets and bring on a great day of football this Sunday.

I too am a big Colts fan and am really happy we (yeah I know) get the Jets. Most of us fans here in Indy wanted them to make up for that BS game last month. I think a lot of people are overlooking the real key matchup here and thats Colts D against Sanchize and the O. Our D is really playing well and is rested and deep and flying to the ball. Add to it the crowd noise and I think this is where the game could get ugly for the Jets. We shut down Ray Rice and can shut down the Jet run game just as well.

Because I think the Colts are better than San Diego.

So much so that it would shock you if we won? Did you think this before this weekend?

If you proposed a Jets-Colts AFC Championship matchup last week, I'd have told you that I'd be shocked if the Jets won.

Perhaps after this weekend, the degree of shock will be much less, but the word for it will still be shock if it happens.

Fair enough. We'll see what happens. As with every game since the Falcons loss, I have no expectations, just hopes.

I'm a Denver fan, and now I just laugh when Cutler touches the ball. ( In other words, I know how you feel)
