Should be fun
Unfortunately, the game still won’t start for 25 minutes. NBC’s pre-game is AWFUL. Collinsworth and Olbermann are total douches

i dont mind costas

Costas and Patrick aren't bad
But they get dragged down by the suckiness they’re surrounded by.

Chargers always play us competitvely
This Charger team has been less than stellar, (Only 6 INT’s all this year, they had that many against Peyton last year…) but they’ve caught some tough breaks. If it wasn’t for the blown call in Denver, we’d be talking about a 5-5 team right in their division. (Although losing to the Raiders, Denver sure doesn’t want to win that division, we’ll probably see an 8-8 team in the playoffs)

Inactives
SS Bob Sanders, DB Brandon Foster, LB Buster Davis, C Steve Justice, TE Jamie Petrowski, WR Roy Hall, DT Daniel Muir, DE Curtis Johnson.

Interesting
How much is left on Edwards’ contract? What division will former Pats assistants try to move to once they have taken every job in the AFC East?
Puts you at 7-4
Tied with Pats and Ravens, but you have the head-to-head over us. Where’s Shake? This stuff is confusing. ;-)

Player Introductions
Does anyone else think that every network should start using the same player introductions they use on NBC’s broadcast? I’ve always loved when the players introduce themselves and give their colleges.
Plus, its always nice to hear someone from Purdue. Its been a (relatively) lean couple of years for the program these days…
It was beautiful.
Here’s hoping Danny Hope is the next Matt Painter.
I think Painter was OK last year
But he has a lot more talent around him than he did this year. Just look at what Keller is doing for the Jets right now. Unfortunately Painter just hasn’t been accurate this year, and he hasn’t had the athletes to bail him out.
Dont’ know about the future. Siller will be a project.
The Chargers Are Our Hardest Opponent Left Until Tennessee
If we win this game, we will be 11-4 going into that home game, and hopefully Tennessee will have dropped 2.
http://naptownsfinest.com
I wouldn’t say WILL….but theres a good chance they could go 11-4 with the teams they play
by ColtsFanNChiTown on Nov 23, 2008 8:19 PM EST up reply actions
Cleveland, Cincy, Detroit all suck balls
It would be pathetic to lose to one of them.
At Jacksonville, even with the way they’ve looked, still will probably be tough. But certainly winnable. I think Tennessee has everything wrapped up by them, I wouldn’t be surprised if they rest people.

Right now it is Chi-Min
They may keep that one, as they are both tied for 1st.

I think they do a pretty good job of mixing it up
When we pass though, it usually is down the field, not a dump off.
Is another receiver needed?
I mean….its Reggie.
