Colts Legit Contendors in AFC again?

Greetings Colts fan...Browns fan visiting from Dawgs By Nature in anticipation of the game this weekend.  I noticed a post down below asking if Browns fans were still upset about the Colts "screwing us out of the playoffs last year."  For me -- no.  We didn't take care of business against Cincinnati.  No one to blame but ourselves.

Caught a post over another blog I visit that I figure would interest you all.  A rabid Colts fan not understanding why the Colts are not getting more respect.  (And he thinks the Colts are legit contenders in the AFC again).

Colts Back in the AFC Race Even if No One Respects Them

I have to say that I think the Colts are close.  But I think it somewhat of a house of cards.  If Bob Sanders is playing, they have a chance to make a deep run.  And I think the running game needs to pick up.

Of course, as long as you have Peyton Manning, it'd be hard to count the Colts out.

Good lord, as a Browns fan, I wish I could get frustrated about a 7-4 start!

Best of luck this weekend.  I hope the Browns put up a fight, but I am obviously not expecting much.

I think we are back in it.

And we never get respect. Even when we were the “reigning Superbowl Champions” there was no respect. I have learned not only to live with it, but to expect it.

Thanks for your post. I know that the Browns’ record doesn’t reflect their team. Your guys are tough and I don’t discount them for a second. I just hope my team looks at Sunday the same way.

BTW, I have to say that I’ve always enjoyed the Browns as a team. They have always played with alot of heart. I think that their fans are the best. You guys have always stuck by your team through thick and thin – even when you didn’t have a team! Thats true fan-dom, if you ask me.
