saying the colts streak couldn't end in a better place than texas stadium. you guys and gals agree?

I agree. I was hoping the Colts would come in undefeated. Dallas taking down the best team in the NFL would be a big feat
 
Honestly, I love TOs confidence. Its something the whole team needs more of.

No doubt that having half of all TV punditry insult them by picking the Cowboys has the Colts fired up already,,,

..the team has to step up and be accountable.

If this team needs to fly under the radar in order to win a game against a quality opponent, it needs to be scrapped because we still don't have the right players playing.

We are relatively free of the injuries we had last year at this time to key players which were used as excuses for the failures, from Flo to Julius Jones to losing the kicker in TC..

..and the only real loss this season of Ellis is overblown as to his importance.

He was a liability in pass coverages and every good team with decent coaches took advantage of his lack of true LBer skills. As much as he was effective in the pass rush, he was a liability in open space.

The team drafted Carpenter to play that position because Ellis was sulking about his role at the time and the team needs to have gotten him ready to play sooner than this if he ends up becomes a negative factor from here out.

This official line about not having anybody to replace Ellis is bull. We spent a #1 pick on a player to replace him in April. We spent a #2 pick the year before drafting Burnett to play the outside LBer position. We've invested a good bit in preparing for something like this.

If these players turn out to be failures, then BP is accountable.

Let's move on.

Sorry.

If BP can't take the tough road with dealing with the team and holding them accountable for success or failure, then we need a coach who can.

Well I hope the Dallas Cowboys make a big statement on the Colts by doing the unimaginable by blowing out the Colts.
 
Is it possible we're good enough to just flat out outscore the Colts?

Dallas is capable of putting up a lot of points, I also think the defense will make some plays. We will not shut down the colts offense but we have some guys on defense who can make big plays. We are 4th in the NFL in take aways and I expect to see Dallas D making plays.
 
I love how ESPN stated that it was a "T.O. Taunt". :rolleyes:

I don't see what the big deal is. It wasn't even a taunt. He just stated that Texas Stadium would be a good place for their unbeaten streak to end. He wasn't calling anyone out.

Pathetic!
 
Personally, I hope Indy comes in fired up and plays their best. I want them to leave here knowing they gave it all they had and still lost to a better team. I don't want to beat a good opponent because he wasn't focused or he had injuries.
To approximately quote an old saying, "A man's strength is measured by the strength of his enemies." Let's see the strength of the enemy and we will see how strong we really are, or are not. To be the best, you have to beat the best, and right now Indy is considered the best.

No doubt,,,

after all that's been said, Indy won't be looking past this game. The Cowboys will get a taste of the real thing and they had better play to their focused potential, without all the stupid crap they've been pulling so far. A game like this can turn into a watershed moment for them,,, seize the moment!!!
 
I've never been a fan of TO's antics off the field, no matter where he's played, but this seems pretty minor. Every team the Colts have played since about week 4 have wanted to be the team that ended the "undefeated" streak. If the Colts win today, next week will be the same, and so on. The Colts are destined to see each and every team's A game, until this ends.

Naturally, who wouldn't?

There's lots of things to criticize TO about, but this isn't one of them, IMO.
 
Aw this week was way too tame.

Best bulletin board quote was Fergy in his pc making fun of Manning's long neck.
