Yep..my dad used to be huge Colts fan and talk about watching Johnny U. play and I wish he had been around to see Peyton. Biggest change for Colts in the last 2 years was the defense manning up.

Wish we could skip the 2 weeks of hype and just play next week.

Respect to the Colts and their fans. Hopefully we see you guys again next year, healthy this time.

Preseason wins dont count

You mean you are hyped up for the Pro Bowl??? Especially if MN wins and there are 20 replacement "pro Bowlers"?

Good run, Joey.

Though I won't say anything about that 12 wins prediction. No need to pile on after a good run. But add that to another list of things I'll be "shocked" to see.

Christ. Why would you be shocked? We're young at every position and Sanchez and Greene are the goods and the defense was terrific in the first year in the system. I don't feel like I'm being outlandish, especially with the Pats and the Dolphins being so garbage.

That was definitely not deserving of a "Christ," response. Maybe you're a "12 or more" win team, we'll see. I don't think you are. Just like I didn't think you had a good chance at all to win today. It's that simple. Just like I don't think the Bears are a 12 win team, despite the fact that they have key young players and have plenty of upside in the coming year(s).

It's not a personal attack for someone to say that they think your expectations are not likely to happen.

Who's better in the AFC East? Or as good? Yeah, the Jets = Bears.

Ok, so teams always win divisions with 12 wins.

I forgot that anything less had never happened. Got it now. Sorry for the confusion.

Sigh. OK, 11 wins.

In the meantime, geaux Saints.

Your jets played well joey and down the road if they can keep their pieces together... they could be scary. You just have to work with braylon on not dropping 80% of the passes thrown his way... Onward to XLIV

80-yard TD catch and run when it counted. He's gonna drop a few passes but he gets behind the defense unlike any WR we've had since Keyshawn. Congrats man.

skippy3481 01-24-2010 09:38 PM

Trust me i know braylon edwards... been a huge fan of his for a looooong time. When you need him most.... he will drop a ball that you could have caught. I'm just warning you. He had a nice game today though. our 8th string cb got caught looking at the qb which is just inexcusable. The matchup for the saints should be fun.

For the first time in a long time, the super bowl will be competitive at least betting wise. I'm still not sure if Jim caldwell is alive though. Damn son, wake up and maybe smile every now and then. Forget this business as usual stuff, your going to the 'ship....

too much manning and garcon!
 
Jets crashed and burned! Too much of the mvp and the kid from haiti. Almost 400 yards passing and most yards jets defense given up all season. No question who was the better team. As for jets being best in east, comon kanye we kicked your ass the last time and we will restock for another run. The patriots will be fine can't wait to play the jets next year.

no offense but I wouldnt mention the Bears and the Jets in the same breath.

Also, ateam, I'm sorry you have Lito Sheppard on the team. He's garbage but thinks he's better than Revis.

One of the silver linings of the loss was it exposed the weaknesses we have, which will hopefully be addressed now. We obviously need a better corner opposite Revis. Lito, Lowery, Strickland and even Coleman all had their moments but none could consistently do the job. We also badly need another pass rusher, as Pace and sometimes Ellis are the only ones that can beat guys 1-on-1. Shonn obviously should be the starting RB next season, I love TJ, but the torch has been passed and he'll have to accept a smaller role if he's going to be back. A slot receiver wouldn't hurt either. Sanchez was brilliant yesterday, and has gotten better with every game since the Atlanta loss, which is the biggest reason for optimism.

very true. he's seemingly the franchise qb you guys (as well as many others) have been needing. a lot of talent, and a quick learner. you guys should be a real threat next year-even moreso than you were this year.
