Hard to see the road teams winning outside of San Fran.
San Fran/Carolina might see some of the all time worst passes being thrown. If either guy can look somewhat competent throwing the ball it will be a miracle against those defenses.

Colts placed Moala and Toler on IR. Toler tried but shouldn't have even played against KC (couldn't even move and that left Avery wide open for that 79 yard TD).
Also interestingly, Colts sign former Patriots WR and Superbowl MVP, Deion Branch.

Pats lost Spikes for the season with a knee injury today...Im afraid my boys will be in tough to beat the Colts this week. Thats a heavy hit along with Wilfork, Kelly and Mayo. Will need a bloody miracle to win. With Gronk and Vollmer out on O it could be a long day. Maybe the Colts Richardson finally gets to run for over 20 yards this week.

That's a lot of injuries but we have a ton of injuries as well so it doesn't put NE at a disadvantage. #1 reciever Wayne, #1 TE Allen, #1 and #2 RB's to start the season in Ballard and Bradshaw, starting corner Toler, starting defensive player Moala, and then guys who got/are injured on defense like Davis, Werner. We will still be the underdogs.

Do you think this more of a -"Hey Deion, what can you tell us about the Pats offence" type singing, or will he actually play some snaps?

Colts put some guys on IR today and needed additional players. He will play minimal but will play on some drives. Patriots did it with Austin Collie who they signed yesterday for the 3rd time this season.

A lot of Pats fans may be ticked at this, but loyalty doesn't pay the bills.
I thought the Pats should have signed Branch a few weeks ago.

Even with the injuries New England is still better than KC. Brady to Vereen easily connects for a 50 yard TD where Alex Smith to Cyrus Grey misses. If Alex Smith can throw for 378 yards and 4 TDs...imagine what Brady will be able to do. Not to mention Smith did this without Charles for most of the game. The duo and Blount with Vereen is miles ahead of what KC has without Charles.

I also forgot Ridley, who is another guy who can run quite well so long as he holds onto the ball. Certainly the Patriots defence is banged up and that is why I think the Colts will put up some points.
Evil Bill is also the type where he'll send two guys to tackle TY Hilton at the line of scrimmage on every play once his team has a 25 point lead and make the Colts go down the field on a drive that takes 15 plays due to there being 13-5 yard penalties for illegal contact. That was the Chiefs biggest problem was that they let the Colts have about 3 straight 2 minute TD scoring drives with lots of big plays.
