The opinions of Brad Wells (BigBlueShoe) do NOT speak for all Colts fans. Most Colts fans are well informed fans and good-hearted people. Most Colts fans are not egotistical douchebags.
This has been a public service announcement.

As opposed to contemplating veering into oncoming traffic.

House gets me to into the episode to leave in the middle of it. Did just flip to see the Bengals fumble the opening kickoff.

The Steelers stole a superbowl from the Seahawks
and the Bengals stole a playoff spot from the Texans by rolling over for the Jets last year in the season finale.

Time for the supposedly “most pro-ready QB” to show he’s ready.

Teams can go from good to bad and vice versa so quick in the NFL
In other sports it takes years for the change. I mean, it still feels like the Jaguars were in the AFC wild card and the Panthers were winning their divison.

If the QB holds the ball for a long time
The D-Line will try (unless they are the Texans) to move heaven and earth to sack the QB. The longer he holds it, the more the line attacks; and the O-Line can’t hold up forever.

I have always had a fondness for CJ

as for TO, I never really minded him. I think the media overblows a lot of things. He always works hard on the field and that is what matters most to me.

interesting
so presumably rather than the way game shows are set up now, with increasingly difficult questions, they’ll probably start with harder questions… or will they?!?!
I have no clue.
The article doesn’t even mention how many choices each question will have. I love the idea though, especially if the contestants have to physically put the money on each money drop.

Sounds like the wounded buffalo theory.
In a herd of buffalo, the weak and sickly buffalo are the first ones to be killed by predators. So when you drink alcohol, which kills brain cells, the alcohol kills off the weaker, slower brain cells, leaving the brain a smarter organ-thingy.

It reminded me of Harry Williams
like he just went out cold and you’re left wondering it he’s paralyzed or something. He looked practically lifeless to me. Back in a week or two is great news compared to what it felt like to watch.
agreed
in a post-game interview, Manning talked as if he thought the worst as well. I feared paralysis until I saw him move a leg. Then I feared partial paralysis, honestly.
I'll never forget the blank look on Collie's face
as he laid on the ground with his muscles tensed in the fetal position. It still freaks me out.
"The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection."-George Orwell
yeah
I wrote this in the OT, but it reminded me of that fall that Jahvid Best took last year – his arms were totally stiff and he was rocking back and forth. I’ve never seen anything like it – I always assumed that when someone was knocked out their body would go completely limp immediately. Sickening.

The look on his face as he was being carted off is what haunts me.
Just that glassy look in his eyes, the unmoving nature of his body, I really thought it was going to be something that was going to require him to be hospitalized.

He got knocked out, has a concussion, but was cognizant later in the game.
And supposedly the concussion symptoms have been subsiding today. Even if he’s cleard to play against the Bengals, I don’t want him too. Give him the week off for that hit and let him get some rest.

without Collie, we’ve got other things to worry about.

We can hope at least.
Thats one of the things I’m not too annoyed about our loss against the Eagles. We aren’t likely to have nearly the list of guys out we did yesterday. Hopefully Tryon, and Powers come back so we won’t have Townsend in there anymore. With how he was exploited, I honestly think that Townsend is going to be targeted alot from now on. On the offensive side, if we can have Addai back, I’ll feel better about our running group as Baby J has some of the qualities I really like in Hart and Moore.

I don't think Tryon is coming back soon,
but that’s just my opinion. Didn’t sound good from how Phil B was talking about him.

I was thinking it was just an ankle tweak, but if Phil B isn’t confident, then I guess we’ll just have to cross our fingers that Powers and Lacey can stay healthy so we won’t see much more of Townsend.

Why are guys who have been healthy their whole careers
breaking out in injuries this year, and the guys who are injured often get injured in 10 minutes in Indy? (I’m looking at you Sanders and Thomas!)

I'm more confident that Powers will be back
but I sure wish Addai had had at least one, even limited, practice last week
Agreed.
If he’s full on Wednesday, I’ll feel better, but shouldn’t they have had a walk through today? I thought they always had some kind of walk through after a loss on Monday, and Monday being off was a reward for winning.

Well,
the original report was 2-4 weeks, and Sunday will be the end of 4 weeks. Also, Addai seems to be a pretty tough guy. Also, Phil B said that the fact that Addai was listed originally as doubtful instead of out in the injury report suggests improvement in his condition. Guess we’ll find out for sure Thursday.

I assume that timeline
was a guess at best… who can predict how quickly someone’s nerves repair themselves?
Still, I think Caldwell’s comments today were encouraging
I saw that as well. I'm pretty sure it was a reliable source (like a Dr.) that said the feeling will come back in a month.

Unless Benson goes crazy in the next 10 minutes I am at a complete loss (I was down 2 points to start the day anyway).

I got Ochocinco too
Big bust for me
"...and Kareem Jackson will fall down..."
There isn't even anyone even modestly acceptable to get off waivers either.
At least I’ve got Jabar Gaffney and Brandon Llyod so I can replace Ochocinco in my lineup, but it still sucks I had him auto-drafted to me in like the 3rd round as my primary receiver.

I've got Roddy White and Michael Crabtree
I’ve been rotating between Crabtree and Ochocinco but I might go fulltime Crabtree or pull off a trade with my friend who is a huge Bengals fan (maybe he can take Chad off my back)
"...and Kareem Jackson will fall down..."
Lol, the thing is I did everything perfect this week.
I took all of the top performers for the week as my starters, and I’m losing 126 – 103, and this probably my single best week this year. I just got the most worthless autodraft players possible.

I've had a good amount of underperformers
Matt Schaub, Matt Forte, Marshawn Lynch
Not to mention Chris Johnson is on bye.
I barley scored 70, worst performance of the year
"...and Kareem Jackson will fall down..."
This is my lineup and the points as starters...
QB – Stafford: 24.70
WR – Ochocinco: 0.0
WR – S.Johnson: 14.5
RB – Benson: 11.80
RB – J.Charles: 10.00
TE – Tamme: 16.80
W/R – 13.20
DEF – NYG: 9.00
K – Bryant: 10.00
Good week, and I’m still losing by like 20.

Any of the Chargers WR's Avail in your league?
Rivers can make any of them rock stars it seems.

I picked up T.O. on waivers a few weeks ago
and he has been a BEAST for my Fantasy team. So far I’m up 125 to 64 this week. Lovin it!
He's been a great pick-up for me
Can’t believe I snagged him so late in 2 leagues.
"Lord, beer me strength."
This seems like a really slow game.

well sheet
I was so excited to see how I was doing in FF with T.O….. and I sat him this week for Roddy White and Steve Smith (NYG). I guess I assumed the Pitt defense would be too much for him.
A fair assumption.
Are you at least winning?

I’m terrible at FF… I think the most fun of FF is the draft, LOL

and frankly
if they were going to institute that rule, it should have been instituted after Palmer went down a few years ago. But not until Golden Boy went down did the league finally think it was important. Sickening.
I'll take it a step further
it was like that roughing the passer call against the Eagles last night. If a defender had done that same helmet graze to Matt Stafford or Jason Campbell, it would have been overlooked.
The Steelers just hit the self-destruct button.

Hair is considered part of the uniform right?
I remembered when Edgerrin got pulled down by his hair and the next week, he cut it off saying he was never going to go down by his hair ever again.
Correct.

As much as I hate the Bengals for playing dead for the Jets last year
I do feel for their fans. My best friend growing up was a Bengals fan.
"...and Kareem Jackson will fall down..."
No it was Bengals
They laid down for the Jets. Kept the Texans out of the playoffs.

Indy in Week 16, Cincy in Week 17

Thanks
The Jets had NO business making the playoffs last year. then this year, they’re a hype machine Jerah Jones would be proud of…

I do love Jaws on PTI
But he’s not very good at commentating
"...and Kareem Jackson will fall down..."
Benson!
That’s a fucking prime-time play. Good shit.

Oh boy a chance to break a new record
if they beat the Steelers after they have been up by 20 or more.
*INSERT any activity on grass*......and Kareem Jackson will fall down
Wow moment on 3rd and 16 by Benson.

Pissin me off

Actually....I do too.
I knew Philly fans were who I thought they were but I never really dealt with any of them and Sunday really bothered me…though they did boo Santa, so I’m not sure what I was expecting.

Nicely done by Palmer
Him and Schaub have these “moments” where they look like elite QBs.
"...and Kareem Jackson will fall down..."
I'm no T.O. fan but
holy crap, what a catch and hold through that shot!
*INSERT any activity on grass*......and Kareem Jackson will fall down
Wow... I can't believe how good TO looks lately
and I can’t believe I’m rooting for him. But then again, he did single handedly destroy the Cryboys, so what’s not to root for?
The fact that he's been better than Ochostinko has pissed me off
Fantasy-wise…
"...and Kareem Jackson will fall down..."
As tight as Pitt is playing the secondary
send the ball into the endzone and at least draw a flag!
*INSERT any activity on grass*......and Kareem Jackson will fall down
I actually like Palmer from this range.
Lets TO work down the field more.

Pro Tip
MAKE your field goals!
*INSERT any activity on grass*......and Kareem Jackson will fall down
Special Teams
spotted them 10 points at the beginning (fumbled KR, and allowed blocked punt)
then missed two FG
That’s 16 points and would have been more than enough to beat the Steelers tonight. OUCH!
*INSERT any activity on grass*......and Kareem Jackson will fall down
Remaining MNF sched
Eagles @ Skins
Broncos @ Chargers
San Fran @ Cardinals
Jets @ Pats
Ravens @ Texans
Bears @ Vikings
Saints @ Falcons
Couple really bad ones in there
"...and Kareem Jackson will fall down..."
Yup
A weird year. Before the season, that looks like a hell of a MNF schedule. But the only games that will really mean something are Saints/Falcons and Jets/Pats.
Well the San Fran @ Zona was gonna suck anyway
since the NFC West is a shitty division.

It has represented 2 out of the last 5 superbowls

but the only 3 three teams those years
where just turrible.

Ravens are a playoff contendor
Chargers could still make a run in that division
I want to make them beautiful, but they always turn out WRONG! That one... too fat! This one... too tall! This one... too symmetrical!
Seems Gary Brackett
had the same thoughts as me when he saw Collie go down. He said first thing that popped in his head was Eric LeGrand. Scary stuff…
Try to kick me while I'm down...I'll break your leg
