I get your humor...I think you're hilarious...The Colts have not been on the same high as before the unbeaten run/Dungy tragedy.I think it was important for them to mount a good drive especially with what the Steelers did on their 1st drive.....The first drive of the game is never a big drive, IMO. It's the first one. They're down one score. No biggie.Big drive for Manning and Co..........
True, but it is not a nice play.No call, no foul.Pass Interference by Hope.great play by Hope.
Outstanding play-calling on that drive. They are passing to set up the run. Very smart.
And everyone please welcome back the 2003 Colts defense.

And that, my friend, is why the first drive is never "big".Too many things can happen over the course of the remaining 55 minutes.The Colts have not been on the same high as before the unbeaten run/Dungy tragedy.I think it was important for them to mount a good drive especially with what the Steelers did on their 1st drive.....The first drive of the game is never a big drive, IMO.

Mr Freeny dosent care who hes up aginst![]()
Indianapolis, meet the REAL Ben Roethlisberger.
And Mr. Freeney, that's not Trai Essex you're facing this time.
Amazing what silent counts and hand signals can do.
nice? lol i guessTrue, but it is not a nice play.No call, no foul.Pass Interference by Hope.great play by Hope.
but i do agree it was close.
Big Ben showing he can't handle the coach putting the game in his hands (like Palmer could when healthy).
bitter much?LOL, still isn't going to be as easy as it was against Essex!Nice play by Freeney - Ben stood there too long.Mr Freeny dosent care who hes up aginst![]()

Huh? He is 8 for 10, and the INT was caused by him getting hammered by Freeney. He is playing pretty good right now I would say.Big Ben showing he can't handle the coach putting the game in his hands (like Palmer could when healthy).
oh god thats ridicolous, up until that play he was 8 for 9.Big Ben showing he can't handle the coach putting the game in his hands (like Palmer could when healthy).
Haha what? Freeney was there in 2 seconds and blind sided him.Big Ben showing he can't handle the coach putting the game in his hands (like Palmer could when healthy).
Ah, I see. I was afraid there were lingering bad feelings from the bantering we had during the Cards/Astros LCS last October. It's all good, though. At least we are both Broncos fans!Explain.Judging from one drive? Really?And everyone please welcome back the 2003 Colts defense.GR is a different breed. You get used to it.

I get your humor...I think you're hilarious...
But it seems many take you a little too seriously.

WOW...don't you have some more crying to do in the nati? I guess you missed the first drive?Big Ben showing he can't handle the coach putting the game in his hands (like Palmer could when healthy).
Big Ben showing he can't handle the coach putting the game in his hands (like Palmer could when healthy).bitter much?
Just making an objective observation.Oh, no...not at all. That was a good discussion...things get heated sometimes. Heated discussion never hurt anyone.And yes, go Broncos! :milehighsalute:Huge play by the Colts 'D'.

What? Do you mean based off one INT that happened because he got hit as he was throwing? You cannot be serious.Pittsburgh's 'D' looks rock solid so far. Manning looks shaky.Big Ben showing he can't handle the coach putting the game in his hands (like Palmer could when healthy).
Steelers fans I'd appreciate if you guys would stop flaming me. Please be excellent.
