I believe the guys are very aware of the expectations of this season, and the consequences for failing, IE new regime could equal new homes for some. To say they will come out flat, IN WEEK 1, just because thier nemesis is out is absurd.
I don't believe we will, but if we do lose to the Colts it won't be because Manning didn't play....can't believe I just typed that...it will likely be because we made some of the same dumbass moves/actions that have plauged us for the last 10 years.
However, I'll take the hometown team for the W (not saying I will take the points, that is a Vegas line if I ever saw one), but I think we will end up ahead by a TD or so.

Eheh, yeah, Walter is usually pretty sound. He seems to live and breathe football and does an incredible amount of work on his website what with handicapping NFL games, draft research, etc. As a handicapper-wannabe myself, I can tell you he usually does an excellent job with his picks and he leaves this info posted on his website for the world to see. Young guy, too, late 20's/early 30's is my guesstimate - Google Image "Walter Cherepinsky" and you get a guy with a passing resemblance to a young Jerry Seinfeld....
I like to quote him sometimes in posts just for the "outside perspective".....
But yeah, I hope he's really wrong on this one. And there is no shame in that.... happens to the best of 'em... In the world of handicapping, sometimes you're either blessedly right or horribly wrong - not much room for in-between stuff...
I think the wild card in all this is the new Texan defense. Right now, I'm having visions of a rusty Kerry Collins horizontal on the ground - a lot..... Hope this is not a pipe dream.....
edit: and there's Keith posting kinda the same..
