With as hard as the Colts are fighting for home field throughout this year, I doubt you'll see them take anybody lightly and give up a surprise loss to a down team. Plus, the offense has only shown its usual sharpness one time so far. Look for them to continue to refine it and put something around 40 on the board.

Some around here have pointed to the fact that Tom Brady got his start against the Colts when Drew Bledsoe went down as if Alex Smith is in a similar situation. Alex Smith may be good, but he's no Tom Brady. And the Colts 2005 D is a far cry from the Colts 2001 D.

And now that San Diego kicked our ass in our house, the Colts have another easy game to look forward too. WAAAAAAAAA! And why did Tagliabue cause Rodney Harrison to get hurt?! It's all a conspiracy against the team that has three rings! WAAAAAAAAAA!

Good God dude!

Indy's schedule....

at Baltimore
Jacksonville
Cleveland
at Tennessee
at San Fran
St. Louis
at Houston
BYE
at New England
Houston
at Cincinnati
Pittsburgh
Tennessee
at Jacksonville
San Diego
at Seattle
Arizona

New Englands Schedule

at Carolina
at Pittsburgh
San Diego
at Atlanta
at Denver
BYE
Buffalo
Indianapolis
at Miami
New Orleans
at Kansas City
NY Jets
at Buffalo
Tampa Bay
at NY Jets
Miami

Only once do they have 2 games in a row at home. The fact that Indy gets their BYE week right before coming to Foxboro raises some suspicion. Do you not agree that your first 7 weeks are a cream puff?? All I said was that based on their first 4 games I was suprised he had not used them yet.........

GOOD FREAKING GOD!

Is the Colts schedule in their favor? Yes, never denied that. But Jesus, you can't stop bringing it up.

I could be in here asking why the Colts have had to play their last three games vs. the Patriots in Foxboro. But I haven't because I know there is a system in place and the location of those matchups of division winners depends on previous season's results. I could also have been bitching last year about the Colts having to play on the road on one Sunday and then having to play on the road again the following Thursday on Thanksgiving.

But I've pointed out to you before that the last time the Colts had to play a halfway decent team after a bye week, they lost. And it's not their fault or Tagliabue's fault that NFC West is horrible.

Do you hear that faint hissing sound in the distance? That's my respect slowly leaking away every time you cry about the schedule with your three rings on.
