The upcoming Colts game, 9/11/11

i think that all the talking heads have been so burned by picking the texans over the past few years, that they are swinging their opinions a bit far in the opposite direction to avoid being burned this year. and i am not sure it is a consious decisions, i just think it is a natural reaction to the circumstances of the last few years.

i think the texans win by 2 touchdowns this weekend.

Hmmm......me thinks maybe Walters is a closet Colts fan. The idea that we won't be motivated and ready because Peyton might be out for the game, is ludicrous in the extreme. It is a division game after all, and no matter who is the Colts QB, we will be fired up and ready to go. I am anxious to see how the defense will perform.

on an unrelated note, the jags just released garrard. mccowan is now their starter

I'm already getting fired up for the game. This is gonna be a looooong week. I don't think Manning being out has any effect at all. If anything, this defense is salivating at the thought of getting to hit someone more prone to turnovers. "Big brother" of a division opponent, opening day, with the hype machine starting to spin, yeah, we're not gonna show up. Ridiculous.

The only way I see us losing is if we cannot stop Addai and/or Schaub has one of his WTF games.

Hopefully, we get out to an early lead and sit some of our ailing stars.
