There's a couple of things that are in Indy's favor.

They are at Home.....Finally
They aren't going to take the Pats lightly.....unlike a certain southern California team.
And they have a certain kicker that can come through when its a close game.

That being said I'm not yet ready to sing the praises of the Indy Defense just yet. Yeah they looked good the past 2 games but they were playing some pretty one-dimensional offenses. Its a lot easier to look good when you only have to focus on shutting down one aspect of the game.

We have a couple of good running backs AND with Gaffney and Caldwell starting to play well w/ Brady makes for a more well rounded offense.

Don't forget we also had the #2 Defense (points Allowed) this season.

Should be another White Knuckler this weekend...

Peyton Manning was on the radio in Indy pleading with Colts fans not to sell their tickets to Patriots fans. He doesn't want them to take over the stadium. Shouldn't he be watching film or on the training table rather than worrying about Patriots fans? This could be fun to watch. This is a MUCH better matchup right now for the Patriots than San Diego. We dodged a bullet out west, but I like the Pats in Indy this weekend.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan
