I will never forget Watson's rundown of Champ Bailey in Denver, what was it two years ago now? One of the greatest individual efforts I've ever seen. It wasn't like Bailey was dogging it either. Great, great player.

Congrats on the win Habby. Oh how I loathe the Jaguars!

Woo hoo!!! Just got home. Nice post habby, I agree 100%. That fake was awesome. Did you hear the anouncer a couple plays later dissing Brady for hamming up the late hit?

Poor guy. Must be one of those A.B.NE guys.

Yeah.

But I thought the announcers were pretty good despite the jeers they directed at Brady.

The fake was unreal....man, they even had me confused for a few seconds.

They probably were, I was too busy razzing my anti-pats friends to hear much of them...

And the fake. Yeah. The angle allowed the keen observer to see that it was a fake, but the true football fan was already watching a few feet away, and thus, get fooled like a Jag.

Pretty much as I suspected in the Patriots game (I predicted 31-24) so I was off by 4 pts but close enough. NE defensively wasn't totally up to par but offensively they are amazing. I'll give credit where it's due and that is a simply amazing offense. So many weapons. Jags shut down Moss, but Brady used everyone else to get the W.

Can't wait for 9.5 hours from now! RCA DOMMMMMMME. I'm pumped. I'm definately not looking past the Chargers. It should be a great game. I already have my Colts jersey on! Key to shutting down SD is shutting down LT. Look for Sanders to play him 1 on 1. I think if we can limit his success then we will win. Also i'm pumped to see #88 in the recieving core. Been way too long since i've seen the future hall of famer out there. I hope he isn't too rusty though as that could effect our offense. I expect Wayne to get the most passes and Harrison to be used as a second option.

It should be a good game! Like I said i'm not looking past San Diego but if we can win then imo next week's AFC Championship might as well be the Superbowl. GO COLTS! I'm expecting Sunday to be the Manning, Wayne and Bob Sanders show!

Liar! You were looking past the this game since Week 3

Since my team is long gone, I am just hoping for some good football. I got IND & NYG moving on, the Mannings will both play lights out tonight and Romo will do something worth laughing about again!

Well i'd be lying if I said that I didn't expect the Colts to win today. I think we are clearly the better team vs the Chargers with almost a full lineup. (Dwight Freeney is the only big name missing but he's been out for the year for awhile). TE Ben Utecht might miss the game as well with a shoulder injury. With Brock, Mathis, Harrison, and Ugoh all back, that gives us a nearly full roster. Shutting down LT and special teams returner Darren Sproles is the key today in winning. The only area in which SD has the advantage is special teams and specifically on the kick returns. I think the loss to TE Antonio Gates is a big loss for them as well. 20 minutes till kickoff, I can't wait.

EDIT:
I guess Gates is playing for them after all.

However, they are without FB Lorenzo Neal. Big loss.

Fullback Lorenzo Neal, who was listed as questionable with a fractured left fibula, is inactive and will not dress Sunday for the Chargers (12-5).

GO COLTS!!

HOOT · 01-13-2008, 10:56 AM

Chargers are 5-1 without Lorenzo in the line up this year.

OILFAN #81 · 01-13-2008, 11:14 AM

BOOM! Manning to Clark! 26 yard TD! 7-0 Colts!

OILFAN #81 · 01-13-2008, 11:23 AM

WOOOO! There's the #1 defense. Hayden with the INT!

OILFAN #81 · 01-13-2008, 11:34 AM

Brutal. Apparently rust is showing for Harrison. Fumble after a promising drive. He should have just gone down.

Tron_fdc · 01-13-2008, 11:53 AM

Anyone know where I can see the game online?

4X4 · 01-13-2008, 11:55 AM

Beeeeee-utiful. TD SD

OILFAN #81 · 01-13-2008, 11:55 AM

Crap! Nice drive by the Chargers. Jackson TD. 7-7.

I'm pretty sure it's a subscribable service from NFL.com.

That f'n american idol commercial is really starting to annoy me. I hope this is the last weekend we have to endure CBS.
And WTF? Are football fans your target audience for that stupid show? Shouldn't they be advertising that garbage on whatever shows teenage girls watch?

Probably targeting the pissed off girlfriends/wives that are watching football right now. Gets them thinking, if he is going to make me watch football I'm gonna make him watch American Idol.

OILFAN #81 · 01-13-2008, 12:05 PM

Vinatieri 46 yard FG. 10-7 Colts!

I'm happy with the way the offense is playing. They are getting all the short yards to keep on getting first downs. The defense needs to make a stop on the next drive.

You're probably right. Dirty bastids.

What a horrible call by the officals....should be TD SD!!!
