Buffalo Mike1 Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Football right now. B word -slap the Colts, they are on fire.
Bill from NYC Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Colts look out of sorts. They are. When Tarik Glenn retired out of nowhere, he left a gaping hole in that team. It is unbelieveably hard to replace a great LT. Now, the OL is weak and thin, and this doesn't bode well for Manning, who isn't Doug Flutie in terms of thriving on broken plays and running away from trouble. Their defense isn't all that either, so when the Colts are down, teams can just tee off on "poor" Peyton. Mind you, this team has great coaching and great management, but when you can't block, you won't win. This is something that never has changed, nor will it ever.
bizell Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 yeah, in addition to tarik glenn just retiring out of nowhere, basically the whole colts OL is injured. Manning missed all of preseason, too.
DaGimp Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 And they have a dominating D-line. Hmmmm But the Bills have the best DE in the league according to most everyone on this board so they must have a dominating Dline.
Fewell733 Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Manning's accuracy on medium to deeper passes is way off from where it normally is. I would bet his knee isn't close to 100%.
Saint Doug Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Is Young healthy at all? It looks as if they would be crazy to go back to him now. I guess we'll see him packaged for a pick during the offseason.
Jdorn Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Coach says Young will be the starting QB again at some point. Is he just trying to keep the kids confidence high in case he needs him? possibly. All I know for sure is the Titans are for real. I hope the Bills coaches are watching film of those lines.
Williams+Williams+Williams Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Mind you, this team has great coaching and great management, but when you can't block, you won't win. This is something that never has changed, nor will it ever. Sounds like the bills

They put a line on the screen last night, mentioning that Manning has 167 consecutive starts. That's amazing. I'm happy they got beat - an AFC loss, a loss to damage their wildcard playoff chances.
