I know I am, not sure if that is a good thing or not. I just like our chances against the high-powered Colts.

I feel very good. I'd feel even better if the Boys somehow finish today's game with more points than the Colts. That would really set us up for a strong finish to the season.

I have been to this road befor and we end up losing big time. I just can't imagine them beaten the Colts when they can't beat a poor Washington team. Yes the skin is that bad.It will be a miracle if they turn things around. I am hoping but nothing for sure

No, I don't feel good at all about it.

I think it will be a shootout...I don't see anyway our defense can stop the Colts offense.

HOwever, I think when/if the Colts get two scores ahead, we are also capable of going to a wide-open offense and scoring points.

The problem is I see us failing to score more often than the Colts due to penalties and dropped passes.

I think we'll play pretty well, the Colts will be conservative, not wanting to give us anything to encourage us, but the Colts will eventually pull away late in the 3rd quarter.

We'll realize we can play with them but that we are still an immature team that makes too many mistakes to play with the big boys.

I think that is the realistic scenerio based on our season so far...but ******, I'm still holding out and praying that this goofy team can put it all together just one time and win a game against a top opponent when the win would really mean something. Last season, and so far this season, every time a key game was played that would put us in a great position, we have been beaten badly or beat ourselves...eventually this team has to win a game of consequence, doesn't it?

If only we can play penalty free ball, the refs are known to favor Payton..We can't let any plays to even be close to a penalty or they will call it...

Mistake free game and we win rolling away.

It's hard to be completely comfortable with this team. How many times during the past few seasons have we gone into a "big game" only to come out heartbroken.

It seems like every time this team is ready to turn the corner into being one of the top teams, something happens. Injury....missed FGs....ill-timed INT....Penalties....

So, I can't say that I feel good.

If we can somehow win this game, and win Thursday, then I'll start to feel good about our chances.

Yes I know how you feel. Every time I think we are going to turn the corner, I am let down.

But not today...I have a good feeling this is it [yes been there before] Troy Aikman says he has a feeling this team is ready to get it going and go on a roll. I agree with him.

Or it could be the fact that OHIO STATE beat Michigan and is going to the BCS Championship game....and I'm still pumped up about that. :D

:bow: :bow: :bow: to OSU

I feel good because no matter what happens we are at least competitive with the best team in the NFL. We have come a long way since BP got here.

how do you know today will be competitive? From what we have seen vs the other good teams we played so far it very well might not be

and we have upgraded the talent on the team, but the play on the field is not that much better when you consider the drastic difference in overall talent...this team should be better than 5-4 and shouldnt be in year 4 of Bill Parcells and still searching for its first playoff victory

What I mean is that way more of the national media are picking us to be competitive than would have ever happened in the past. Romo was not part of most of those games and I think the team is believing in him more and more. We will see but I believe we will make it a game if we do not win it. Only a few more hours and we will know who is right :D

I can see this game being a lot like the game vs the Chiefs last year. I actually think the Chiefs offense last year was more dangerous than the Colts offense this year.

That game was up and down. We got a huge break when Fujita sacked Green and caused the fumble.

They couldn't stop us....we couldn't stop them....Fortunately, we had the ball last.....or we held it long enough at the end of the game.
