For Coach I'd say Denny Green.

I wonder if the Packers were who he thought they were.

Bob Costas just made a funny about Chris Henry, anyone catch that? Since when did he get a personality?

He was great on his talk show that used to be on NBC after Letterman, "Later with Bob Costas".

Never saw it ... work starts at 6am. But for a non football guy he fits in quite well on this show.

BTW...congrats Flames 1987,

Big win for your team.

I feel better after a couple of hours. I think Shanahan should've run the ball on that last 3rd and 9. At worst you don't make the first down and you run another 30 seconds off the clock. At best, you get the first down and lets face it, the Colts hadn't shown any signs of stopping the run in the 4th quarter.

In any case, I am actually encouraged because the offense finally looked in synch today. I have hopes now that they can get by San Diego and win the division if they play smart.

Would've been a sweet win today though.

I thought Denver's biggest problem in the second half was playing their LB's 5 yard off the line, then bailing back to 10-15 yards at the snap ... soft, soft zones ... looks like the Stamps vs the Lions this year and the Stamps vs everyone last year.

Well Manning and Wayne went to work in that second half. Looks like keeping Reggie Wayne and letting the edge leave was the right move. I hate Bob Irsay a lot and wish the Colts would start sucking big time, but I just don't see that happening. Peyton seems to get better every year, and this year they've got a kicker who won't fata it up. Next weeks Colts vs. Pats game should be very interesting. Will have to see what type of scheme Belichek cooks up to throw at the Colts.

How many times are the Panthers going to drop the ball? Between dropped passes and fumbles, the Panthers are doing nothng.

For purely selfish reasons I hope they keep it up, being a division rival and all. The Saints had one of those games where if it could go wrong it did go wrong, except for Marques Colston who continues to amaze, should be the offensive rookie of the year if he keeps it up.

I agree the only way you beat those timing patterns the Colts are brilliant at, is with pressure. I was surprised that the Broncos with the fastest LB's in the league didn't blitz more, that said Manning was as hot as humanly possible today and even with the blitzing he wasn't going to be denied.

Ya he played well, I think the biggest key to him being successful is his mobility, teams have to respect that and can't pin their ears back and continuously blitz (giants last monday). Nice to see the Panthers crap the bed in the second half for the second week in a row, it couldn't happen to a cockier fanbase, well other than the Eagles lol.

Yep Romo is amazingly nice to watch in the pocket as compared to lead foot Drew. Brings a whole new aspect to the offence, I think its fair to say if Romo can play as well as he did tonight on a continual basis we will be headed to the playoffs(i hope!!)

As of right now the AFC has what I'd consider to be 7 teams all but eliminated from the playoff race before the midway point of the season. I know the Pats came back from a 2-5 record to win the Superbowl, but I don't know if any of the AFC's current crop of 2-5 teams will be able to pull that off. With a 2-5 record 2 more losses will seriously hurt your playoff hopes as no 9-7 team will win their division this year, and even at 9-7 for a wild card spot you're looking at a tie breaker against 2-3 other teams. Pittsburgh has too many tough games left on their schedule to finish better than 9-7 now in my opinion. Last year they had to win 4 straight to get into the playoffs, now they have to win 9 of 10 to get in, and still have to play New Orleans, Carolina, Baltimore x2, @Cincinatti, and Denver. If they pull it off they'll have earned it.

I'm a Steelers apologist, but they lost to the Raiders today. They don't deserve to make the playoffs and they won't. Although, if Cincinatti keeps losing and Baltimore keeps playing Jekyll and Hyde who knows what wins that division.

I'm not going to just plug Manning and say how great he is, but he once again carried this team on his back for another 4 quarter comeback. Simply amazing

Man do the Colts ever need Sanders back. It hasen't been pretty but 7-0 is still 7-0. When you can go in and beat a team that has one of the best home records it's impressive. Keeping Wayne and drafting Addai looks better and better everyday, Coloston is the front runner but Addai if he keeps this up could get serious ROY attention.

That was a hell of a game
