• The Colts' attempt to "tackle" any Jaguars ball carrier on Sunday were about as successful as Katy Perry's marriage.
  
• The Jaguars couldn't have cared less about the meaning of a loss for the Colts. NFL teams play to win. Period.
• With a reported late night rendevouz between Jim Irsay, Jim Caldwell, and the Polians, big changes can be expected today, according to Phil Wilson.
• "He's a team guy, he's a true professional and I wouldn't expect anything less of him," said Jeff Saturday of Manning's season, which was reduced to that of cheerleader.

• The season may be over for our beloved Colts, but there is still some football excitement to be shared in the playoffs. Congratulations to all of the team who clawed and scratched for their spot!

There's not much left to say, friends. This season was terribly painful and will always serves as a reminder of how quickly you can fall from glory. Not only that, but we have most likely watched some of our all-time favorite Colts take the field, in whatever capacity, for the very last time. Not easy to think about, is it?

Hopefully for the team, the fans, and the city, our turnaround period is simply a single off-season. Uncertainty is the primary adjective to describe the upcoming months, but whatever happens, I sincerely hope it will be for the best. I'm counting on Jim Irsay to make the right decisions for this ball club.

All we can do is hope for the best.

Happy New Year!
