I agree with Gonzo. You don't put a player in cold in the 4th quarter after sitting him for 2 quarters... and if a player has been on the sidelines for a week or two or three(remember, playoff Bye), you can only ease him in for a play or two here and there to get his feet under him.

Now imagine doing that with an entire team.

Now, granted, the Colts can beat a team after being down 17 points, so a slow start doesn't mean shit to them... but you can't take any risks when it's the playoffs. They're looking SuperBowl... I say just let them play a half.

I understand what your saying, but they still pratice all week, and you start them, but maybe only let them stay in 1 or 2 quaters. They do their normal pre-game warm up and then just play less, not warmup, sit for 3 qtrs and then play, although there are plenty of examples of backup QB's doing this after an injury and it doesn't seem to effect them.

Dunno, I just think if they're 14-0 and game #15, they're up 14pts in the 4th and Manning steps back and breaks a leg or something, it would be a waste of one of the greatest seasons in NFL history.

The goal is to be undefeated in the playoffs, that's what's important.

but oh well, not my team... So, I do hope they play ever single play of every single game!

Not only is Mike Peterson a punk. He's probably the dumbest player in the NFL. He said after the game " I thought he was gunna get up and run " It gets better... " I was just trying to touch him down. I tried tot ell the refs but they werent listening "

This is why we didnt pay this guy money and let him go to the Jags. Enjoy your fine tommorow Mike.

A team needs to play like the Jags to beat the Colts. Like in 98, the Vikings got exposed as an opportunistic, athletic but not a tough defense, with a similar offense. The Steelers just need to run Bettis 40 times against them.

Oh and it was John Henderson who was on are player helmet, blatently digging it in the ground trying to hurt the guy. That guy was Edge James.

Its sad because this team is tough to root against. They kept fighting and damn near tied the game at the end, but shit like that is bush league.

I think the Colts are getting ahead of themselves. They need to win the Super Bowl first before they should worry about going undefeated and winning the Super Bowl.

No one will think any less of them if they are the 17-2 Super Bowl champions.

Another one of the reasons I think its silly to sit players, you're practing all week, you play the first quarter, the injury risk is still just as great. I mean yeah, if its the 4th and you're up 14 I can see sitting some guys but I don't say bench them after 1 quarter.

How is the risk of playing 1qtr the same as playing 4qtrs?

It's not, you're playing 15mins vs. 60mins.

I'd play them a 1/2, maybe a qtr is they run up the score big... but the goal is the superbowl, and to have players healthy and rested, when other teams might have been batteling through the last week.

I think to 2003, when Antowain Smith didn't play the first half of the season, they said he was injured, but it was rumored that Belicheck held him, knowing he couldn't go a full season and it allowed him to be in mid-season form when the playoffs started.

doesn't really matter, not my team, just saying all the people going "let's go for 16-0" will rip Dungy apart is Manning gets injured.

Two AFCs get the Bye. Indy gets home field.

Other teams can't come close to Indy, talent-wise. I get the feeling that nobody has sacked Manning all season for some reason.

Every other team goes into the playoffs playing all of their players. The Colts and one other team will be getting a week's rest that the other teams WON'T get... the Colts are the best team in the NFL... I just don't see why they would be scared. Why would you even pull back? Why would you ACKNOWLEDGE the possibility of injury? It's the NFL... injury happens, and it happens more often when you're worrying about it. Just let the players play like it's a 16 game season.

Thats the only difference then, time. You're playing more minutes but its not like playing in the 1st Q has any different of a risk than playing in the 4th. Its just a stupid notion in my opinion, because your guys play all year and have been fine. Why be so paranoid now, its not any different than playing a game in week 6.

That's a pretty big difference, 15mins vs. 60mins. 4x the amount of time.

Also, to answer you're and beans question, about "it's no different then all season" well, it is in one respect, there is nothing left to prove. You have home field through the playoffs, you can't win anything else. Also, the idea of the extra rest, less wear and tear on your guys, when others are still going full speed is a big factor also. But whatever, as I've said a few times, I don't root for them, and them being more tired or risking injury can only help the Patriots!

You can, I wouldn't, simply because I'd worried they'd have cooled down and would be at risk for a strain/pull.

The only way you can't is if you use the 3rd string QB. Every team lists a "emergency QB" if I recall correctly, if that player come in before the 4th Qtr, then no other player listed as QB can be used. This was why a few years ago when Vinny T. went down, Toma Tupa was the QB until the 4th qtr, then I think it was Mirer came in, they had said if Mirer came in, and got injured them Tupa wouldn't have been allowed to QB or something... although Tupa was also the punter, so I'm not sure exactly how that all worked...

Can you not play them for a while, take them out and put them back in later that game if the game starts going in the opponents favor?

The starters on Offense will play every quarter until the final 2 of the season if they stay undefeated that long.

Bush has the potential, I just question if he has the size to take the pounding. He's not going to "run wild" like he did in college and it's a shorter season in college, if he starts week #1, lets see how he's holding up week #13, especially if he goes to a team that doesn't have a great OL.

So basiclly, I'm saying he coule be right, he could be wrong, I really don't know... it depends on what team gets him.

and No, I don't think Carroll goes pro... I did at one point, but now I think his agent is just trying to get some big NFL offers so Carrol can get a deal like Weiss got, they're looking for 5-10yrs around 3/mil a year. If Carroll gets that at USC I don't see him leaving, even if the NFL offers him more money. He loves the area, his family loves the area, he's doing well recruiting, kids want to play for him, parents want his kids to play for him, it's a great weather place to live and it's a top team that will be featured on national TV each week which is great if you're looking to be reconsied by NFL scounts and Advertising agencies. Unless Carroll really feels he has "something to prove" I don't see him leaving.

I really don't think his size will be too much of a problem. At 20, he's the same size as Tiki Barber and only a little smaller than Edgerrin James and Clinton Portis. He could maybe put on 5-10 pounds but he's still a solid 200 now as a 20 year old.

Really? I didn't think he was that heavy, I gussed him 170-180 range.

The big difference for any offensive player in the pro's is speed/pain factor.

Everyone is fast and everyone hits hard. Bush rarely gets hit, so how he handles taking hits will be a big factor, but yeah, if he's on a team that can block 1/2 way decent and gets 20-30 touches a game, he could be a top 5 offensive player next year.

Carroll has nothing to prove in my opinion and i think he would be nuts to leave USC. He took the Patriots to a Superbowl. Thats all he needed to prove in the NFL. Eventually as the year go by. Maybe he jumps back into the NFL, but i cant see it happening in the next 5 years.

Actually, he never took anyone to a superbowl.

You're thinking of Bill Parcells (a little taller, heavier, etc..) He never proved anything in the NFL, with the Jets I don't think he lasted a full year, and with the Patriots he took a team that had just gone to the super bowl, and I'm not sure if he ever even won a playoff game.

That being said, I don't fault him, given some of the play calling was a little strange and I don't think he's capable of "motivating" NFL players like he can college players, but the personal decisions were horrible and that wasn't him, that was Bobby Grier, Carroll has no say in draft picks and free agents (this was a product of the Kraft/Parcelss rift... "if they want you to cook the meal, they atleast have to let you shop for some of the groceries"...

So, if Caroll was offerd a "president of football operations" job, where he'd be coach and GM, or like Billecheck has, where he is coach, he isn't GM but the GM reports to him... I could see him considering it, especially with a lot of money invovled.

That being said, I agree, he'd be nuts to leave USC, unless they don't want to "show him the money"... I mean, if USC keeps him at his current range (I think 1-1.5mil) and a pro team offers him complete control and 3-4mil? thats a lot of money to turn down, and I don't think he's that old, he could always go to college again.

Carrol wasnt coaching the Pats when they played Green Bay in the Super Bowl ?? I'm probably wrong.
