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 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 sureBlueStar22;1169977 said:I know I am, not sure if that is a good thing or not.

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?

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.

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
