    It might be a blowout, but not the team you're hoping.



    Texans probably lose this game. They have the advantage being at home on TNF, but they'll likely be the exception to the rule. The franchise normally loses games like this.. big game and national spotlight. I am more confident in the current regime vs years past, but we'll likely lose.

    Did Spurs win rings before they had TD? They could not even make it to the finals before TD. I have just a hunch that Luck would win more rings than Manning(1).

    Yes better team eventually, and Manning was the greatest all time regular season, but he was not nearly as clutch in the playoffs.

    Well he's not a FA till 2016 and even then they probably use the franchise on him, he's stuck with Indy for the foreseeable future.

    So, you do not believe colts could ever improve their team?

    Sure, it could happen, but they'll have to draft well because they won't have a lot of cap room to play with.

    I think ST could make a big play for us Thursday.

    This isn't Kubiak's team so I'm not sure why people keep saying that we're going to get blown out or lose bc it's a prime-time game.


    The Cowboys game was watched by most of the country and the Texans gave one hell of a show.

    I'm not good at looking things up but does anybody remember the last time we won a primetime game at home? Feels like it's been rough sailing the past few years (VY OT run, Ravens comeback/Schaub pick 6, Colts comeback, Rodgers going nuts)

    I remember a thursday night game vs Denver in 07 i believe and a game vs Jacksonville where Slaton went crazy (maybe '08). Crazy to think it's been that long.




    The losing streak ends Thursday...

    Played for Vrabel at Ohio State. Hopefully can contribute Thursday night on special teams.

    Technically they said last week that he was out for the Cowboys game and this game, they haven't said anything about it this week as far as I know to confirm it.

    Not officially, but all reports point to the Monday Night Game.

    T.Y. Hilton is probably licking his chops. I hope we can get some pressure up the middle on Luck, otherwise he's going to kill us with his mobility.

    Luck is going to throw all over the defense. Even if we can get some turnovers i don't have faith in the offense capitalizing. i think this is our hope in winning the division because we're definitely losing in IND.

    I'm banking on the fluky-ness of thursday games . Maybe texans catch a break with being at home on the short week.
