Opinion piece from the Bleacher Report on a possible upset on Sunday.

This person calls our running game putrid.
I disagree, but that's just me.

This guy posted the EXACT same breakdown over @ MHR

Isn’t that a big nono?

I saw that and would have

typed out a nice, long response to that article, but I’m in the middle of cranking out a 2,000 word research paper and am already procrastinating as it is (ironically, that’s what my paper is about), so I had to leave it. It made me a little sad, especially with all the recs it’s getting.

And about posting twice, I know that it’s a big nono on Stampede Blue (bamock got busted for it last offseason), but I don’t know if that policy extends to other SBNation sites. It’s also possible that the mods don’t know about the duplication.

I had the same thought

I could refute a bunch of stuff in there, but I don’t have the energy to do it tonight. Maybe tomorrow.

While I obviously prefer the Colts win this game

I wouldn’t mind if a Denver win sparks them to overtake the Chargers for the AFC West…

How can you not love a team that does this?

Even if they win,

I doubt they overtake the Chargers.

I'm afraid you're right Cass,

I just have this feeling we’ll be playing the Chargers in the playoffs again.

some of his compliments to the Colts Team

"walking on egg shells", "living on the edge" with a "putrid and inept rushing offence", "very mediocre defense" and "really lucky to be undefeated" Colts

by thebossuzzi on Dec 8, 2009 5:32 PM EST reply actions

He has no idea what he's talking about.

Peyton owns Denver. Wayne may not do much with Bailey covering him yet Clark should be good as always against Denver and Frenchy really seems to be coming on in the last three weeks.

Our defense isn't mediocre.

They’re one of the best in the NFL, the best in the most critical situations, and most importantly don’t give up lots of points.

Every game since the Patriots

has been the game we’re gonna lose. When Denver goes down under the the hooves of the Colts, every team we play thereafter will be the one we’re gonna lose. These mook prognosticators are the guys with the big “L” on their foreheads.

That guy has not watched a single Colts game this year.

by vintagephoenix on Dec 9, 2009 1:43 PM EST reply actions

is the same guy

http://www.milehighreport.com/2009/12/7/1190834/might-the-colts-be-the-perfect is written by the same guy that wrote it in the bleacher report , that explains the copy & paste of the article, he’s a Broncos Fan, but nonetheless i think he could have said the exact same thing without having to use adjectives as “putrid”, “mediocre” and “inept” cant find any logic to those descriptions in a 12-0 team. Funny how the Colts dont get respect.

by thebossuzzi on Dec 9, 2009 2:55 PM EST reply actions

I thought putrid was a bit harsh as well.

We get the yardage we need on the ground, when we need it. With Petyon throwing, we really don’t need a Super running game. Still it would be nice to get better.
