Please God
don’t let them kick to Devin Hester.
If they do at least give Vinitieri’s leg the strength to make it a touchback.

New formation
According to NFL Network, the Colts will showcase a new offensive formation in the game. If anyone sees it, or can recognize this “new formation,” make a note.

wow...
I’m watching the youtube of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAFtx5emWyk
That looks BAD. It really does look a lot like Carson Palmer’s injury. I root against Brady in every game, but I don’t wish this on him. I feel bad for Bernard Pollard because he is a Purdue Alum and was always a hard-hitter and his name is going to be ran through mud all over the Press.
Yeah
I linked it in the 4:15 game thread.
Right now I’d just write it off as wishful thinking on the part of the Jets players. I don’t think anyone knows yet. They have an MRI scheduled tomorrow, but this is Belichick we’re talking about here. We won’t know until Brady plays or goes on IR

Tom Curran
Curran wrote that story, and he is a Grade A sack of sh*t. I don’t believe tom is done until I see real news people report it.

From the spot
Of the hit, it does look like a ACL injury. But you never know. Too much resemblance to Von Olhoffen (?) hit on Palmer during the Steelers-Bengals playoff game.
"Winning is not everything;the desire to win is" - Vince Lombardi
i will say
Palmer’s injury was dirty, this one just seemed to be unfortunate
Proud supporter of Randy going for 300, even next year.
Steeler Nation
I’m sure lot of people in Steelers nation will strongly disagree with you :) NFL says hit is legit and Pollard won’t be fined. Peter King just said that Brady has a serious injury and his season’s probably done.
"Winning is not everything;the desire to win is" - Vince Lombardi
Could be an ACL!?
If it is im not sure we’re gonna have too many Pat fans on this news!?As a Colt however i am also disappointed as when we meet them it may not be the contest we were all looking for!
Marvin!
running around pre-game
Great to see.

Peyton!
Not doing his usual running around during pre-game. A little disheartening, but as long as he’s playing it’s all good.

Vince
He pouted on the sideline after the pick (shocker), and he was almost benched before getting hurt. Obviously, hope he is ok. But he was awful today. Awful.

Vince Young's injury

i saw the chargers game!
What a sight seeing the chargers lose in the last seconds! i didnt think the panthers were going to make it but fair play to Delhomme and the panthers offence
Seen on the walls at Eagles stadium:
“When we recycle, everyone wins.”
Besides the Rams, apparently.

well if they put their defense out there things might of been different
And how about them Falcons? Great for them to have something to be excited about.

Bullets Forever: Where fancy numbers and YouTube come together.
I normally would think the Colts would dominate tonight...
…but tonight has me (or really you guys) a little worried. Peyton hasn’t played all preseason and is coming off an injury, your D Line is extremely thin, and Marvin (although he’s looking good in warmups) is coming off an injury and let’s face it, he’s getting old. I don’t mean to be negative, and you’ll probably pull it out, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a close game.
I dont think the offense will be so much of a problem
the most likely will being thin and all. BTW nice win over the Jags today

And yes, that Gene Upshaw patch is ginormous. Hopefully it’s a temporary thing.
Bears are kicking off. Roby returning. Only appropriate that a guy from Indianapolis, who went to Indiana, should get the kickoff. He takes it to the 30, and here we go.

He is killing the Bears LT. Other than Forte’s run, Colts D has played well.
