And no way Evans is ready. But they'll be playing the Redskins or Giants so the D should be fine. Why is that ugly Tampa game the 8 o'clock game ?

The Chiefs play whomever the lowest seed is after next weekend’s games are done.

It's the first Playoff game. Everyone will be watching. We go out there and play some of our best ball and we win big, we make an early statement to the rest of the league. We put a beat-down on the Colts and everyone the rest of the weekend will be comparing other teams to us. So yeah. Give me the first game. Go out, put a whoopin' on the Colts, and make a statement that can't be ignored in the other games. All of a sudden you'll hear all about who has the unenviable task of coming to Buffalo in Round 2. Agree and I would add the next thing for McDermott to do is check off a playoff win. Best not to have the players and coaches waiting while the other games are played. Get the guys out there quick!

I think we're better but can't make many mistakes We absolutely can Josh had the INT and then dropped 3 on the Dolphins the Colts don't move much faster. 1

Just go win a ball game.

Buffalo vs Indy is much more enticing, imo, so I’d think we’d get Nantz and Romo, the #1 broadcast team at CBS. Nothing throwaway about that. Edited January 4, 2021 by K-9

It means, they don't value the game like the other games because the Bills are involved so they give them the "put Buffalo first and be done with it" mindset. They don't care about the Bills 1

This is what they played for during 17 weeks. Now they are there. Time to continue the momentum and win the remaining FOUR games of the year 2

I remember watching at home as Bills overcame a 32 point deficit to win. That year I made plans and went to Super Bowl 27 I think in Pasadena. Kelly hurt his knee again in the first quarter with Frank coming in and Cowboys romped. Comeback was 1/3 /1993. I Was right on end zone line where Beebe knocked the ball from Leon Lett for only second highlight of the game for Bills. Other was Tasker partially blocking a punt early. Dismal day. Can’t believe number two seed gets placed on short week playing first on Saturday at 1 pm. Reminds me of playing first playoff game with Mcd against Jax, which I think was also first playoff game of that year. Hope this turns out much better. Maybe we correct another wrong on our way to winning in Tampa this time. Get ready to play an encore recording of Whitney Houston’s version of the national anthem in Tampa in Feb as we come full circle! Edited January 4, 2021 by DrPJax
Dkollidas Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Maybe they put us at 1:00 Saturday because we’ll likely be the biggest favorite and it has the possibility o not be a tight game? 5
Dablitzkrieg Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Good we whoop the Colts' ass early and enjoy the rest of the playoffs. I am expecting a thorough beatdown Early 6.5 point favorites. Should be at least 10.5
UConn James Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Whatever for the time slot. What I’m worried about is that we’d better not be wearing the white uni & blue pants like the last two WC losses in the McD era. It’s a bad luck combo. 2

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) This is a good read from October on the Colts defensive scheme. Sounds like a lot of cover 3, similar to what we saw from the Seahawks. from what I recall (and what We did against Seattle), against this defense, the outside zones near the sidelines tend to get open. https://www.stampedeblue.com/2020/10/2/21497914/colts-scouting-journal-time-to-stop-calling-the-colts-a-cover-2-defense edit: this article is from November. More of the same. Colts defense seems to get a lot of pressure just rushing four guys. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-indianapolis-colts-finally-built-a-defensive-monster/ Edited January 4, 2021 by Miyagi-Do Karate 1
