Indianapolis Colts
Arent they the most entertaining team in the NFL! Never watched them before but saw the game last night,Manning is quality.Their defence seems a touch ropey so im sure they wont go on to win loads but in the meantime i'll be keeping an eye on their games just for entertainment value
yeah manning is sick, they were my super bowl pick this year so i hope they go all the way. mannnig just pulls off his 5 TD games like there no big thing, its awesome
Manning and the colts were about the same last year but Manning sucked in the AFC title game.This team is compareable to Marinos old Dolphin teams or the Rams from their chapionship years, but the defence is horrible, if they keep struggling they wont go far in the playoffs.I had the Chiefs and Vikings going tothe superbowl but they got the same prob as the colts.There are a couple teams that are going to the air alot or scoring alot now like the Vikings,Cheifs,Chargers, and whoever plays the Saints Raiders and 49ers lol.
true their offense is good, but their defense isnt much fun to watch.
i prefer watching the steelers/ravens/falcons personally 
yes they are the best and most exciting offense.. but i also think the giants and rams have some good offenses if they can get it together... torry holt and isaac bruce .. can't beat that .. and tiki, amani, and warner.. good combo.
OVERRATED - NO defence
but manning IS the man
Theyre good, but this isnt there year. Thely be removed from the playoffs by the Steelers or Patriots...whomever they meet first.
Well if Peyton continues to throw 5 Td's a game it'll be tricky for a lot of teams to score more even tho their defence is bad!!
i just want to say that i do not want to play the cornerback position when playing against peyton manning. that guy is just the biggest pimp on the football field. he is like calling all these plays at the huddle, then points at you, because he sees you pissing in your pants (<== afraid that you will have to defend the receiver against peyton's pass)..
peyton manning is so good, he would make the seattle seahawks wide receivers look good (<== they tend to drop MANY passes during games .. an average of ten!)
The thing about Manning its that theres always a team that knows how to stop him in the playoffs, he makes some bonehead INT's, the defence stinks it up, same ol story it seems.
"dishman" In 84 when Marino was considered almost unstopable, and he broke records,but the 49ers found a way to stop him in the superbowl.Manning needs a good defence to win a championshp eventually.A Qb cant do it all.
Culpepper is having a great season as well, did you guys see those last 2 drive against the packers he did,and no Moss past couple of games.
How about Donovan Mcnab last night,he was quality,that play he made where it was 15 seconds snap-pass/Unbelievable!!! Have to think the eagles are gonna figure at the season end...
i think the guy no one is giving love to is chad pennington .. no one really knows about him, because he's been with mediocre teams .. but his passing rating his always up in the 100's, and rarely throws interceptions. he rarely fumbles and makes bad decisions. if i was building a franchise, i would pick either him, ben "roth", or peyton... i would pick donovan, daunte, or vick, but their accuracy has been horrible if they don't have a goto guy to throw to .. if pennington is given the opportunity to go to the super bowl, he will succeed ..
This is the first year McNabb has had a goto guy, yet he has 4 Pro-Bowl appearances prior to this season. He may not be as accurate as Peyton, but it has more to do with his receivers either a) not running the right route b) dropping the ball or c) not creating any sort of separation. I would take Vick, Culpepper or McNabb over Pennington. He's only had two full years in the league and hasn't started every one of those games.

ok currently, indianapolis seems to take no pity on teams.. they are just destroying the teams .. who can stop them now ?
Manning makes being a Colts fan fun again. Having that many guys on offense that can make plays has to give the other teams D a headache. Our offensive line is great too. They give Manning all the time in the world to get the ball to someone. I think they'll make it pretty deep into the playoffs again this year.
The defense actually looked better than what they have in the past against the Bears. We had a lot of guys out hurt early in the season that are finally getting back up to speed. We also have a young group of guys on D, so it may be another season or two till we are good enough to go all the way. I'm perfectly happy with waiting too cause Coach Dungy is the man. 5 years after he started at Tampa Bay, they won the Super Bowl. He's in his third season as coach for the Colts.

peyton manning is incredible, i wish that had left him in the game to score some more TD's on thanksgiving though. i really wanna see like an 8 TD game from him.
Pittsburg's defense would suffocate Manning and the Colts.
The Colts defense would not contain the one-two punch of Staley and Bettis. Additionally, Pittsburg has a scary amount of speed at the receiver position and arguably the best (and healthiest) O-Line in football
I hate the steelers, but theyre looking damned good this year.
I think the Ravens could beat the Colts as well. Their defense, as has been the case over the last few years is as good as ever. As long as Jamal Lewis is in the lineup to generate some offense, this team is tough to stop.
At this point, I think Green Bay could beat the Colts. Itd be a bit of a shoot out, but with Favre and Ahman Green in the game, the Packers can generate too much O, especially against the Colts' weak D.
Lets not forget the Patriots already beat them.
But Pat's beat the Colts first game while Colts played away
And the Colts already beat the Pack
I think the Ravens suck and would lose, but you may be right.
And the Steelers would destroy the Colts, the Colts D would give up so many points.
this is going to be a very interesting december..
if indy keeps this up, very tough to stop ..
new england and pittsburgh better start looking behind them, because the other two potential division winners (san diego and indy) look darn good on offense, and a little suspect on defense, but do one thing that is good for the team .. create turnovers, so the offense can get the ball ..
as much as baltimore is good on defense (i love their defense .. i was hooked on ed reed ever since miami, and when those dumb mel kiper and junkies said he was too slow for the nfl, and wasnt equipped to stop the run, i said bullsh!t .. now look at him now .. and what can you say about ray lewis), they can't catch up to pittsburgh's run right now .
the biggest thing is not give indy homefield .. the dome plays a big advantage to them .. something they haven't had in the past .. one thing peyton manning cannot do, and that's play in cold weather .. he plays horrible in the tundras .. 3 of next 5 games at home, then 2 away at Houston (blowout again .. ) and at Denver (interesting here..) .. two home games very interesting is vs Baltimore and San Diego .. wtf ?? who would have thought of that being huge 3 months ago ??
very interesting to see what's going to happen..
I really like what the Chargers are doing,they seem to have it all,they probably just lack experience in big games,but thats pretty overated in the NFL.Im still pissed the Dolphins didnt draft Brees when they had the chance.The AFC is very unpredictable right now.
In the NFC its between Atlanta,philly and the Vikings,pretty simple.Packers might make a nice little run but nah.

Should be a good December, hopefully my Jags and Jets will both make the playoffs both as wild cards. I can definitly see a Eagles v Pats Superbowl but thats if Philly steps it up in the Championship game. |
