I don't know about you, but I am curious about the Colts. How good are they?

We played the Lions last week, in Detroit. They play the Lions today, in Detroit. Should be a straight forward apples to apples comparison without these two teams actually playing each other.

So...... what do you think? I thought the absence of Titus Young was going to be a big deal for them. But then Broyles showed he was ready to be the #2 guy in Detroit.... or was our secondary that bad?

Suh & Fairley looked unblockable..... not many sack numbers, but they were in our backfield almost as often as James Casey.

Stafford.... I respect him now. That side-arm is an interesting addition to his game & he used it effectively against our pass rush.

We're going to find out a little more about them Indianapolis Colts.
 
I think the Colts are overachievers and the Lions are the exact opposite.

If they both bring their game, the Lions should win just as Vegas giving a 7-point spread as the favorite.

Problem is at this point, the Colts still have a lot to fight for; not so much for the Lions.
 
Detroit should win the game at home, but the Colts seem to have an ability to stay within striking distance. I hope they can get the win.

I believe this is why you were accused of being a thinly disquised Colts fan in another thread.

The Colts are an AFC team. An AFC team in our division.

We want them to lose. It would be nice for us, if that last game of the season is meaningless. Even to the extent that the Colts can't get into the play-offs with a win.

If they were playing NE or Baltimore, I'd rather they win. But beating the Lions don't help us in anyway.

We are in the playoffs and I'd like the Colts to be one of the Wild Card teams. Too bad if the last game of the season isn't meaningless. The Texans can take care of their own business. They don't need any help from the Colts.

Some team has to be a Wild Card. Why not the Colts? Who would you prefer of the teams that are in the hunt?

Also if the Colts are in the running, it will make the December 16 home game for us more interesting.

But, it looks like they will be on the losing end today.

Not that I'm scared of the Colts. But I think Karma is a well, you know.

If we sleep on the Colts week 18 & let them into the play-offs, then have to face them. The Karma.... juju.... is bad for us.

Chances are we're going to play that final game like a preseason game. Then we'll have to have our second & third string guys beat the Colts.

I'd rather they get their snaps & not worry about injuries.

& I don't like bad juju.

& I'd rather see the Bengals get that spot.
 
The kid is good. I remember watching him down here at Stratford. Looks like some great games in the future for the Colts and Texans. So much for them going into rebuilding mode.
 
I hate the Colts so much. In one year they went from Manning to Luck meanwhile other teams go 10+ years without finding a franchise QB. Lucky mofos
 
Lions defense with a gaping hole allowed that last TD. Oh well. I wanted the Colts to lose, but at least we get to see the Lions cry some more.

Yep.

Coming up on Sportscenter, Andrew Luck All WEEK! Oh, and rest of the AFC South with commentary by Skip Bayless on why the Colts are the best team in the AFC South.

Pretty sure Luck will be put on the back burner by the KC story all week. I'm impressed with how they've been able to squeeze out wins though. Arians might have earned himself a head coaching job with what he's done this year.
 
People talking about putting Luck in the MVP race on twitter. I think that's a little premature...
 
Easy people, how many superbowls did Dan Marino win?

Let the colts have their glory. It will feel better win the Texans remind them who owns the AFC south.
 
Looks really good. He can call plays and make plays. Tore apart that secondary. Our secondary needs to bring it when we play the Colts... Even though he threw 3 picks he's still clutch.

I hope we put him on his a$s at least 4 times like we got Locker today.

I don't remember Whitney's first sack, do y'all?
 
Only a fool would overlook the Colts, EVER! For some reason that team has more breaks go their way than any team in the NFL for the past decade!! Notice I REFUSE to use the word LUCK!! BARF!!

Just hope our guys burst their, and the media's, bubble and kicks their stinking butts to hell and back TWICE!! Geeeeezzzzz, I'm pissed off at the Lions!!!!

They only got one ring out of it all, when they should have had at least two.

Too bad Luck won't see the field when we're running the ball all day on that terrible rushing D.

Before the season started, I thought we would be able to rattle Luck. I've only watched him in a couple of games... but he don't look like the "rattling type."
 
The Indianapolis Star reported that Suh and his teammates were seen pointing at, laughing and dancing over the Colts' Winston Justice after the Lions defensive tackle had knocked down the Indianapolis offensive tackle following cornerback Don Carey's interception Andrew Luck in the fourth quarter of Detroit's loss. Justice suffered a concussion on the play.
The scene infuriated Colts right tackle Mike McGlynn, who, according to the Star, was seen confronting Suh after Luck's game-winning touchdown pass to Donnie Avery with no time remaining.

Looks like Suh was up to his old trics yesterday ?
