Colts v.s Patriots : Its on!
 

I realize that there is a couple of you Patriot fans wandering around in here so i guess i'll go ahead and call the first shot...

35-14 Colts.

Its on bitches. Its on.

Vikings are Superbowl bound

Fuck the Vikings and no they are not Superbow Bound.

I think the pats game is going to be closer....

I wouldn't be shocked if I'll have a Colts avator after the game.

I'll root for the Pats and I think they can win.

But, I wouldn't put money on it.

Especially w/ Law out and Seymour if he plays, not at 100%.

We'll all be doing a snow dance, that's a key to help slow down the Colts.

If it's a clear/clean field and not very cold, that it could be ugly.

I already joked the Pats should run the sprinklers and try and ice the field :)

whats the weather gunna be like for game time?

Vikings and Colts would be a crazy Super Bowl.

Its not looking to good for the Patriots right now, I am hoping Peyton can win just to get the monkey off his back, but I like the Pats too

Well i retract my previous statement. Anyone can win the NFC. I wouldnt be surprised if the Vikes are there.

I would be, but it would be amazing

35-34 Colts

If Bellicheck finds a way to stifle our offense this year i will go on record as saying he's the greatest coach ever.

Our offense, this year , is just way too dominant to be shut down. So if it happens . Bellicheck is a god.

I remember a game in 2001, vs. the Colts I think Harrison came accross the middle and Bryan Cox just leveled him, the Colts didn't go accross the middle again.

The key is to try and keep the out of the middle of the field where they run all that crossing stuff. The Pats LB have speed same w/ the DE and will match up better w/ the TE's & RB's on passing plays then most teams.

I'd expect to see Eugene Wilson playing CB at some points.

That all being said, it's possible but as I said, I wouldn't put my money on the Pats, too many injuries.

Its was Jerome Pathon. ANd yah that set the tone. But these are tougher Colts. They've proven they can play tough. They played tough when the pats where clocking them left and right last year.

Reggie Wayne is so unbelievable. He's gunna give you guys fits. I promise. You can put wilson on harrison . You'll probably still get burned but helll.. who are you gunna put on stokely and Wayne. Especially Wayne. Man he torched the Broncos.

Patriots by a td no problem. The Colts will NEVER beat the Pats while Belichek is coach.

Wayne has been a savior for me fantasy-wise for 2 years straight. I love him.

All they proved last year is they could lose and cry after.

As I said before, Manning impressed me in the SD game, he was his old whiney, fall apart self in the first half and finally grew up in the 2nd half.

I just wonder if he has a bad 1st half vs. NE, if he'll revert to the old cry baby manning and lose composure like he has in the past.

Should be a good game. As I said, pats can win, I just wouldn't put my money on it w/ the injuries.

Do they still get the prisoners to clear the field in Foxboro?

I see that the cock-sucking of Manning has already started. He is just a flat-track bully. Cheap record.

I really hope the Patriots win, I can't stand Payton Manning at all. Belicheck has always owned Manning, and hopefully that continues. Colts WR ARE soft, but it doesn't mean they aren't good obviously. Patriots need to hit them in the mouth a few times and get into there heads. Not pull a Broncos and say you are gonna lay him out, then never even touch them :|

Also I can't stand the Colts since Tony Dungy really pushed for that stupid "illegal touching" rule to be called ridiculously tight. NFL is all about making the game easier for the offense though so whatever. Should be a great game, Colts vs Patriots always. I think the Patriots will win, but you never know Colts are "due" for a win eventually.

They still use that tractor to tow shit at the new stadium. There was a litte insert about it in Sports Illustrated, pretty intersting. They still have the brush thing aswell, not in use obviously since they no longer have a turf field but grounds crew director said nobody had the heart to throw it away haha

I just remember that they used to get prisoners to drive the tractor in the 1970s and 1980s

haha yeah, work release programs.

They brought back the guy who drove the tractor in the playoffs that year, and he got a standing O. This was like sometime recently I guess, kinda funny, giving a criminal a standing ovation.

I think they ought to give the job to some guys from a real life Oz type jail. If all else fails he can shive Manning and then anally rape him over the gatorade barrel.

Yah comon Patriot fans. Lets start spitting out the excuses 7 days before game time.

Manning is a crybaby?? He loses composure?

If you really want me to actually start pulling up stats to make you look as ignorant as you sound i can. See 3 weeks ago against San Diego, or last year against Tampa bay ( defending world champs) And theres a ton of other instances i can pull up. Then talk to me about losing composure.

Colts recievers are soft?

You think you ( Patriots or Patriots fans ) are the first to sit there and say.. gee if we hit them hard they'll curl up in the fetal position and cry about it for the rest of the game...

Well thats funny cause this crazy concept was stirred up over 2 years ago yet we are still one of the best teams in the league and have the best WR core in the league. Are you telling me that the Patriots are the only one's that can actually implement this top secret plan... whatever.

Patriots are gunna get there assssssssssss'es handed to them snow sleet tsunami.. doesnt matter.

O yah cue Kenoid Kennedy for post game comments. Ask him and Joh Lynch if they still think we are soft and as they put it " Girlie men "

Ask Lynch how he felt when stokely put him on his ass to spring Reggie Wayne for his first td.

Ask Champ bailey how he felt when Harrison busted his ass to get Reggie Wayne in the endzone for the second time.

Keep questioning this teams toughness. Trust me i love it. Its great when teams and there fans talk shit about the Colts not being tough then the Colts go out there and run it up on them as if they where playing high school players.

Dont get me wrong New England are no High school players. But this Colts team are very tough. If New England thinks otherwise there gunna get there asses kicked.

lol

Colts 29 Pats 23

Oh yeah, by the way.

COLTS VS. PATSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

THERE IS A GOD... AND HE LOVES AWESOME FOOTBALL.

Do you even know what soft means? Big whoop, Harrison laid out CHAMP BAILEY, guy weighs like 190 pounds. You torch people all day and still be soft as shit. The way to beat the Colts is to be aggressive and hit them in the mouth. Remember what happened in last years AFC Championship game? Patriots punched the Colts in the mouth and Patriots rolled onto the Superbowl. Or how about last year when the Patriots stopped the Colts on the goal line to win? You wanna talk about being a tough team then you don't get stopped 4 times inside the 5 yard line.

BTW I think Wilson will be alright with Wayne...

I hope the Pats win. If Indy gets off to a good start though it might make things really tough for them to keep up.

Also I won 80 bucks today on point spread cause Indy stomped the Broncos :cool:

HARRISON LITTTT HIM UP

So VEL is now gonna have an excuse if the Pats lose it'll be because of Ty Law not being there :|.

I hope the Colts win, they ARE due to beat the Patriots but who knows, Patriots always find a way ... ever since the Oakland game.

i'd say the patriots any other time, but with the way peyton's throwing the ball and with the injury to law, indianapolis looks poised.

I hope the Colts win, becuase they seem to have the least amount of fans here.

That would be a factor. Wouldn't it? It wouldn't be the only reason, but your telling me having one of the best conorbacks in the NFL out for a game againest the best passing team in the NFL has no effect?

If the Pats do lose, which I don't think is gonna happen, I don't think everyone is going to be saying we would have won with Law. You really don't know for sure, but he would definetly make a positive impact in the game. He only picked off Payton Manning 3 times in last years AFC Championship game.

I am sure everybody will be riding the Colts nut since everyone hates on the Patriots. Really hope the Patriots win, can't stand the Colts and I don't want to hear it if they FINALLY beat the Pats. I am sure Rectal whatever his name will be all over the place if his Colts finally do beat the Patriots, after losing like the last 8 times in a row to them.

I want Peyton to win this year, because Jacksonville is gonna have the title on lockdown for the next couple of years. :shifty:

I think the Colts are gonna win. When the Pats played the Bengals, Carson Palmer didn't seem to have too many problems with the Patriots secondary and Peyton Manning is a tad bit better than Carson so I'm thinking Peyton will be fine

Not an excuse a reason and honestly it's now just Law, Seymour is a huge factor also.

The key when the Pats won their 2 superbowls is no one (except Drew) got injured. Thats a huge key in the NFL, when your all-pro's get hurt it's much more difficult for a team to lose.

If the 80's Lakers lost w/o Magic would that be an excuse or a reason?

and Rectal, pull your head out of your ass.

"Last year vs. Tampa Bay" yeah, they went what? 7-9?
and I already mentioned I was impressed by him Vs. SD a few weeks ago, that it was a different manning then you normally see in the 2nd half.

Anyway, time will tell, if Manning wins in Foxboro, even w/ all the Pats injuries I'll give him the credit.

But, if you start seeing the old manning, the guy who when things go wrong starts shaking his head, and whining and yelling at his team mates when they didn't do anything.

Perfect example the SD game 1st half, Manning has plenty of time and throw a pic, no one around, threw it right to SD, gets on the sideline and starts yelling at his OL... WTF? He had all day, he just made a bad decision.

There is no doubt in my mind the Colts will win.

Manning blows in big games.

My Pats 27- Colts 21

Manning can't win in New England! Nobody can! Regardless of Seymour and Law.

You say this is a tougher Colt team. Well we beat them in week 1 and we'll do it again.

Dillon > than any running back.

*insert giants comment here* :D

Dillon is the huge key, the Pats need 8-10min drives and keep the colts off the field.

Also, the weather will be a factor, right now it calls for Cloudy and come game time temp should be in the high teens. Which really isn't that bad.

If it's colder or snows or rains, that all favors the pats, a bad field slows down the Colts, who clearly play better in a dome. The ground hurts more when it's cold, it's harder to catch when it's cold, etc... etc...

No.

I agree, I just think that the NE offense is not much better than the Broncos offense, it is probably worse, and that the NE defense how it is right now can't stop Manning. He has a ton of momentum and the Pats are a battered team coming off a bye.

I think the NE Offense is better then Denver for one reason.

Brady v. Plummer.

Plummer makes horrible decisions, Brady usual does that once a year (see: Miami game).

Either way, I think it will be close, I still think the Pats can win, I just wouldn't put money on it w/ the injuries and the weather not looking too bad.

on a side note, you'd figure these two teams wouldn't give any bulleten board material...

forgot the the colts have a "stupid kicker"... he went off last night how the Pats can't win w/o Law and next Sunday the Colts will be coming home and getting ready for the AFC championship game.

It all depends on how NE's defense plays against the Colt's O.

Whoever wins that battle, wins the game, period.

heard some interesting stats about the Pats w/o Law, not as bad as I thought, actually better.

Plus, the Pats are one of the lowest in offensive turnovers and the Colts are one of the lowest in defensive forced turnovers... so that's in the Pats favor... can't wait, should be an awesome game!

YOU FRIGGIN MORON! The Colts led the league in forced turnovers and led the league in turnover ratio at ( +19)

Get new stats. After we beat your ass preferably.

And yes i will be all over the place if we win. ANd regular field turf doesnt slow us down. Check our road record. These rumors you Pats fans put out about the colts.. being soft, regular turf lows us ect.. is absolute comedey.

Patriots offense is definetly better then the Broncos offense. I don't even know why you would say that. They got Brady, and Dillon is one of the best running backs in the NFL. Plus a shitload of capable WRs.

There defense will be alright, they always just do enough to win. Yeah, Palmer put up some numbers but what did Rudi Johnson do? Nothing. They shut down who they had to to win.

Colts fan you love to keep talking about stats and what happened here and there, Patriots aren't a stats team, they don't have a big play "showtime" QB, or huge stars on defense. They just play and win rings.

They're 5-3 on the road and half of those were probably played on turf.

Hahahaha.

The Colts are going to lose.

24 - 10

Yeah, I thought the same thing about the Colts last year, when they played KC at Arrowhead.

Fucking Colts. I hope they lose :mad:

31-10. Pats.

No idea where they got those stats on the radio, I never looked them up, but the Colts were one of the best at turnovers.

It's one thing to be a fan, another to be just a complete moron who is blind by hometown loayalty.

Look at your road record.

Colts Avg 36.125 pts scored at home
Colts Ave 29.125 pts scored on the road

"Field Turf doesn't slow you down".

Sure, when it's 70 degrees and sunny.

Try rain, snow, cold, that all has an effect.

Seriously, get your head out of your ass.

Baltimore, SD, New England, all close games, all teams w/ good defenses.
All teams that the Colts has trouble with, one was a loss, 2 held them under 30points.

I wonder what kind of spread and over/under this game will get

Colts over the Pats......For those who think Pats are unstoppable ,Just look at the Great Miami / New England game.....nuff said

Theres a lot more pressure on Manning now, just about everybody is expecting him to win this one, and if he loses it then the "Can't win the big game" thing will be bigger then ever.

If Payton can't win this week, I don't think he will ever win a Super Bowl, or at least for another 7-8 years. This is one of the best offenses ever this season, and it will probably never be this good again. That being said, they have a lot of these players locked up for quite a while now, so the defense won't be getting much better and the offense pretty much can't exceed this season. He would have to hope for like a John Elway scenario, wait until he is pretty much on a completely different team and then do it.

Yeah looks at one game compared to the whole season :y:

It was a big game the defending superbowl champs tide with the best record of the season loses to the 2nd worst team in the NFL. The point being made is Pats can be stopped. Im not even bringing up the embarassing Steelers game either.

I don't remember exactly, but its not like the Pats needed to win that game. They obviously came in unprepared and unmotivated while the Dolphins came in as pumped up as ever. It doesn't mean much.

I dont know how you go in unprepared against the dolphins. They played like a Jr. High football team. It was more of a game for pride. It was also the first time Brady had been swatted down in 13 games.

Didn't the Patriots have a bunch of injuries last year and still won the superbowl?
Maybe not as big as Law, and of course it'll be a factor. But I jus love it when like if the Patriots lose it'll be because of Law and Seymore, big fuckin woop.

Who is saying thats the only reason they could possibly lose? They won a shitload of games without Law so obviously they are still pretty good.

BIG WHOOP though, One of the best CBs in the NFL, and one of the best defensive tackles in the NFL out for the game. BIG WHOOP.

People are ridiculous, just because you say somebody being out can be a factor in determining the game doesn't mean you are making excuses. I still think the Patriots will win without Law, they have been doing it all season. And the Patriots really didnt have any injuries last year. Except in the 2nd half of the Superbowl when both Harrison and Wilson got hurt.

So your saying 29 points per game on the road isnt good?? And what does stats like how many points per game have anything to do with how fast we are? I'm willing to bet most teams in the nfl points per game on the road is lower then at home. That has nothing to do with how fast we are.

Lets go ahead and get teh excuses out of the way too. Lets here about your injuries. Lets here all the good ones. Cause when there start flying out of your mouth after we burn foxboro down, we'll be flying to pittsburgh or Indiana.

I'm telling you guys. The Colts defense are gunna step up huge. They made a statement against the Broncos. I think they'll make a bigger statement. Tho i'm not sure about the injury report yet. I know Robert mathis and Rob Morris were injured in last weeks game. That could suck. Freeney is gunna be huge. I can feel it.

Honestly. I'm not sure the Colts will score a bunch of points. Patriots have great linebackers that always give us trouble. Tipping passes . Blitzing. Teddy Bruschi is the devel. Always getting somet type of interception in these games between us. I seriously think when we win , its gunna be because of the defense

uh-huh. You are so weird. Our defense. lol that made my day a whole lot better.

Bo, they didn't have a bunch of injuries.

Both starting CB's are gone (personally, I don't think Poole is a huge loss, I think he played over his head last year... )

Pro-Bowl DT injured, might play, if he does it's the knee he wont be 100%.

It's not an excuse, it's a reason for a team not being as good as when they're 100%.

Let me ask, if Manning blows out his ACL in practice this week, would it be an excuse if the Colts didn't beat the Pats or a reason?

It would be a reason, any team that has tops players go down to injury isn't as good as they are healthy.

Actually, the Phins played a great game and Brady played a horrible game.

The Pats still had plenty of chances to win, a game they lost by 1point that Brady thew I think 4 picks.

Brady has a bad game, a really, really bad game... he seems to average one horrible game a season (maybe 2).

I ment the season for the dolphins...but yes Brady did have a bad game...a really bad game. The dolphins actually won that game in the final 2 minutes. But you gotta think it wasnt just Brady. Dolphins have a horrible offence and if I remember correctly Chambers was even out that game, So the Pats Defence should have torn them up easily.

Yeah, honestly Brady could have won the game... that int he threw when he couldn't see was stupid.

He had 4 picks on the day.

What really burnt the pats, could come to haunt them Sunday also, Troy Brown got burnt on Defense for I think two TD's.

Carson Palmer is the only QB who has thrown for more then 2 TD's and I think 300yds on the Pats this year. They went 8-1 w/o Law (Miami being the loss).

I really expect a good close game.

Key for the Colts is as usualy score early, get a lead... if the Colts get a 14pt lead early, I don't see the Pats catching them.

The Key for the Pats in running the ball, control the clock and keep the Colts offense off the field.

Hey Rectal, I just want to make sure we still have our Avator bet.

I won't put cash on this one, but I'll risk the Avator!

and I wont change the Avator early like a certain web-site welching owner... :P

Yah we still on. But i'm not exactly sure how to make a avatar still havent set down and taken look at that yet.

in the user panel, you just upload it.

See, I though you would have said...

"I don't know how to set mine, but it doesn't matter because the Colts are going to win"

:p

That goes without being said aleady.

I agree, the Colts have there best chance now, between experience, new players, injuries, etc...

Personally, I like defense... when games get 48-34 I get bored. I like a good hit, run stuffing etc...

I think you'll see the pass interferance called less next year, as it slowly happened after the last time they focused on it.

I don't want to see players mugged down field, but some contact I'm ok w/, incidental and such... small push offs or hand gaurding... it's the stuff that even though you do it, an average athlete in the NFL should still be able to make a play. But the major interferances that clearly take away the chance at the ball, those need to be called.

Yah that was a sick hit Lynch put on Clark. Luckly Clark came back in the playoffs and put back in his face in the form of 6 catches 121 yrds and a td.

Scott Stevens> Darcy Tucker any day of the week.

Agreed, Hits are dangerous enough w/o doing crap like that!

http://www.projo.com/sharedcontent/e...0/images/9.jpg
I love seeing big, clean hits like that one above :cool:

Although Lynchs hit on Dallas Clark was fucking sick, although as a future college tight end (HOPEFULLY) I hope I never get hit like that lol

I'm glad you posted that stima.. isnt that a illegal hit? He's hitting with his forearm. Thats actually one of the hits i was referring too. The ball was like over his head and not gunna be caught and Wilson led with his forearm imo.

I cant believe Vanderjact had to open his frigging mouth. OMG!

We need Manning to drive down to Foxboro early and be like.. Dont pay attention to the Kicker! He's liquired up !

OMG!!! Good Idea!!!

Indy's kicker is the man :love: I love Canadians

Hitting w/ the Forearm isn't illegal.

Hitting to the helment, w/ the forearm, helmet, hangnail, etc... is.

The actually hit wasn't on the shit the way that looks, you're seeing the end result and a still photo.

but yeah, to clarify, leading w/ you're "forearm" as you called it, isn't illegal.

When i watched teh actual hit on video it look like he swung his forearm to his helmet to me. Is face mask considered Helmet?

I'm warming up to our kickers comments now. Its kind of getting me fired up. I kinda feel like where gunna go out there and punch the Patriots in the mouth now. 41-13

No.

So, in the old Garden, the used to say the Celts would turn the heat on in the visiting teams lockeroom during the playoffs/championship series.

Today we have had snow, sleet, and lots of rain.

The field at gilette stadium is uncovered and report is there are no plans to cover the field between now and game time.

and yes, the facemask is part of the helmet, but it wasn't an illegal hit.

It was an illegal hit and its suppose to be a sunny 35 degree's on sunday. I'm sure we'll be alright.

it wasn't an illegal hit, but anyway.

It's supposed to be cloudy and 30's, that's early, this is new england, the sun will be going down before kickoff (now 4:45pm) plus, even though tomorrow is supposed to be warm, friday, sat, sunday cold... which leaves a good chance the field can freeze and if not, it could just be a sloppy mess.

That will effect the Colts, and don't try and tell me "a frozen or muddy field wont effect them" cause it will, it will slow down everyone.

On a side note, unlike Stima, I don't hate the Colts. The kicker is and idiot, but it's tough taking him seriously, Manning is great, but he's whiney and loses composure a lot when things aren't going his way, but he's still a great QB and if he stays healthy should destroy just about every record before he retires.

But in general (manning included) the Colts are a good bunch of guys, the whole blaminb last years loss on the Refs was silly.

That's one thing I really love about these Pats. They don't whine, they don't place blame and they don't talk trash. I've been a Pats fan all my life, and I remember players that blamed everyone else for the loss and it made me sick. These Pats lose a game and even if it's an obvious ref call or injury, every player stands up and takes the blame for the loss.

I still don't like the Phins (grew up hating them) and the Steelers I used to like till 2001, when they got all cocky w/ planning their superbowl rooms and talking about rings, before they played the AFC championship.

Interesting note, the NFL has release "AFC Championship gear" for the 4 teams remaining, but the Colts are the only ones who put in on their web site.

Marketing is one thing and I'm not very superspecious, but seems like a bad idea to me.

ESPN.com has a column saying that the Patriots and fans reactions to the kickers comments are signs that they are scared. Opinions?

lol we aren't worried. Vanderjagt. You can talk when you win something. Stop trying to play with the big boys.

Pats= undefeated at home.


nuff said.

lol. There's players. And theres kickers. Kickers are like the Rectal Pertruders of TPWW.

btw Dillon is the only back to rush for over 75 yards in each game he started. therefore


Dillon > than your running back.

That is what the article said that confident fans would be saying
