Is Andy Reid coaching the Colts today? 50 passes, 10 rushes?

Nope Peyton

Arian Foster is terrible. Glad I avoided him. GL to all those who place a far greater value on potential touches than actual talent.

LOL @ this guy.

 

[The_Wolfman]

My heart skipped a beat when I saw Peyton briefly laying face down on the turf on that last drive. His O-line is getting him killed out there.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Boy, did I miss on Foster. He looks like Eric Dickerson today.

 

[Ignoramus]

If Garcon keeps this crap up, those who drafted Anthony Gonzalez late are going to end up with quite a bargain. I've met Garcon and he's a nice guy, but he looks terrible today.

Reggie Wayne owner here...

Double-bonus for me as a Collie owner, hoping that Gonzo and Garcon disappoint.

Please keep us updated.

Christ Indy, try 11 in the box or something...

Who is on your "Avoid" list for next week?

 

[towney]

What amazes me is Texans are up 10 pts with a total anemic passing game by Schaub. Geez Schaub 107 yds to Mannings 422.

Jesus.

He kind of dove over a guy, trying to make a tackle and landed funny on his shoulder.

He's looked very good. The blocking has been really good in the 2nd half and not having Sanders out there has helped. Foster has hit the right holes, made some people miss and run some people over.

He's safe from the WW for a week. LOL

One question to come out of this is how much the ascendance of Foster might affect Schaub. Only 17 passes today and Houston wins comfortably. I think it'll balance out again (and I'm happy I own both of them, not just Schaub!), but Schaub may take a bit of a hit if they rely on Foster heavily all year.

 

[Hoss_Cartwright]

It's official, Bob Sanders is made of glass and the Colts defense is at it's usual mid season form. When was the last Colts team that finished in the top 10 in rushing defense? Probably in the 70s. It's a telling statistic that the Colts have finished with the fewest possessions in the NFL in 4 of the last 5 years. I believe the Colts defense needs to be publicly humiliated by the media in Indy. Hell, I wouldn't care if the coaches went public with their discontent.

 

[cubbie5150]

Ugh. I feel violated by what Peyton did against my team this week.

 

[The Jacket]

I got wned: there.

I still don't think he's much of a talent (3rd stringer minus fumbling problems with another guy), and it was the Colts...but, epic game. Glad I wasn't facing him.

 

[purestrength]

The good news for Colts fans is you'll be able to start all healthy Colts in your FF lineup for Week 16. They'll have something to play for (unless they stop winning completely).

This is the Kubiak blueprint. Build an early lead in the first half and run it down their throat in the second. The running game wasn't there last year to execute it, but expect a lot more of this in games when Houston gets out to an early lead.

Seriously, who?

:X I sure hope some coach in the locker room has the cajones to call out that entire defense. That was embarrassing
