Colts v.s Patriots : Its on!

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...

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.
