I am not sure if there is already a post about this game, if there is you can delete this.

All i can say is if we cannot figure out what our defense is doing Manning is going to absolutely destroy us.

My thoughts exactly. This team is an offensive juggernaut that will flat-out tear the Cowboys "D" a new one if they don't play better than they did today. The 'Boys can make a game of this if our defense can put one of their best efforts on display but with even that I'm not sure it will be enough to beat them.

First things first, we need to make a statement against the Cards next week before we look ahead to this nightmare of a matchup.

Roy is going to have his mouthpiece out a lot with that "confused" look on his face. Manning is way too smart for the Dallas safeties.

Our only shot is for our d-line to get pressure and knock him down, ala the Chargers last year. Zimmer will instead try to "outthink" Manning and play it safe and the onslaught will be in progress.

Watkins needs to be out there, he is gonna struggle, but he needs the experience. My guess is that he takes out Portis on the TD run. One thing I noticed, he grabs ballcarriers. I think he would have slowed down Portis, if he didn't make the tackle.

Manning does thos to 95% of the teams he face. What are the chances that we're in the 5% that he has a bad game against, not good.

we cannot rush the passer at all. our ILB's suck. AA and BJ need to make plays for us.

Manning is going to shred our secondary, especially Henry. :banghead:

The Colts can't stop the run. The key will be to keep the choker off the field as much as possible. Run Julius and Marion down their throats.

Even the great QB's like Brady have bad games.

Manning, right now w/o having even looked at any tape of the cowboys' D, likely knows our defense better then our defensive players.

I think 3 of his int's were off tips due to drops by his recievers. I'd say his recievers had a bad day, not him.

The problem with Manning is that he only has his bad games in the playoffs.

If Mark Brunell could constantly fool us with play action, Manning is going to have a 400 yd day. There were always guys wide open in the middle. I fear what Manning will do to us.

Any given Sunday...

I think our defense can stop the Colts. Sure our chances are not high but neither were the Titans and we all seen how they held manning...They Barely pulled it off.

I really believe we are going to be the team to give the Colts a loss

I think he would have slowed down Portis, if he didn't make the tackle.It's almost as if you read my mind. Watkins would've made a play on Portis, I don't know what the heck Davis was doing on that play, did he not see that their was a man right in front of him?

I feel sorry for ROY against INDY, they make a living at exploiting safeties. They like to get their 3 WRs up field and into the secondary where the speed of their receivers way out match the speed of safeties, and I can see them putting up 42 points in the air by half time, unless BP slows the game wayyyyy down.
