Indy Is Going Down

[itvnetop]

If the Titans can play Indy close, the Skins sure can. You look up and down the rosters on paper and we definitely match up with those guys. Their run defense is a weak spot, so our O-line has to play with a chip.

The difference is Peyton, the smartest QB in the history of the NFL. He's pretty much an offensive coordinator in the prime of his playing career. The Colts haven't been blowing anyone out this season and their offense has yet to find its groove. Hopefully their bye week didn't iron out any kinks.

Well if it's any consolation, Al's offense dropped 45 on the Colts when the Chiefs played them in 2004. And Gregg's defense gave up 17 when the Bills played them in 2003.

So logically, the final score will be Redskins 45, Colts 17

That's a KIND of logic. Like hearsay and conjecture are KINDS of evidence.

Update: Just saw Booger to the Colts. Bad luck for us.

I'm sure you know I'm only teasing. Just trying to add some levity to all this gloom 'n doom.

I do think we can win, however.

Same here. All in good fun.

Seriously, I take hope in the fact that we tend to play to the level of the competition. I'm sure they'll at least have a hop in their step this week. If we can get to 38 minutes of TOP we could win.

I was horrified to see our pass defense in person, though. Other groups (O-line, D-line, kick coverage) are, IMO, under-achieving. This secondary is simply clueless.

In their last 3 games:

Brunell: 618 yards, 4 TDs, 2 INTs, 56% compl., 3 sacks
Manning: 602 yards, 5 TDs, 1 INT, 60% compl., 4 sacks

Brunell has been playing slightly BETTER than Manning.

So if we had Peyton Manning with slimilar numbers to Brunell (and no all-time passing records this year), would you be whining to bench him for Campbell too, you hypocrites.

Brunell has more than twice as many rushing yards as Manning too, the rickety old man.
