    We have to squeeze another one out, 21-13.

    I'm not 100% positive but I believe if the Colts win then the Rams become the team with the #1 pick, with Minnesota lurking

    So I think the Colts have some motivation to lose...21-10 Texans

    Then as far as I am concerned, the Texans win either way, because the last thing we need is for the Colts to draft another "can't miss" QB.

    I hope they get Luck, because I'll put money on the fact that he'll be a sub-par NFL QB. Too much hype.

    In the beginning of the season where we all (safely) assumed the division was likely Houston's, I also thought that maybe the whole AFC South could team up and give the Colts enough wins so that they get the #2 overall pick. But the team raised their sights a little higher, and while we all predicted a floor of 10-6 with a division title, few were thinking 12-4 with a bye.

    Bring on Luck. This defense is one of the youngest in the league, and is still improving. He'll have no run game, no defense, and a complex system to learn. This texans team could have done some real damage in the AFC South's heyday.

    The Texans website says he missed practice. I think he's a game-time decision.

    I'm reading the article on the website.
    http://www.houstontexans.com/news/a...re-knee-/c2afe359-7ea1-478e-957a-1a37f7a061ee

    It's crazy to see who all is hurt. Daniels and Dreessen both have sore knees. Brisiel, Nolan, and McManis missed practice Tuesday because of ankle problems. Shaun Cody and Jonathan Joseph were also limited at practice because of injuries. We can't catch a freakin' break.

    Brisiel had surgery after the Bengals game. He might be back for the playoffs.

    No, but they did mention last week for the DAL/TB game that there was a local DAL channel and a local TB channel that were carrying the game. NFL Network made a big deal about it before the game because Time Warner Cable apparently doesn't carry the NFL Network and they were letting the viewers know that so that they would complain to Time Warner about it.

    IMO the HD quality on NFL Network broadcast are far superior to the other networks.

    I'm really looking forward to tonight.

    It's funny you say that. I wouldn't mind if they draft luck because I have no faith the current Colts coaching staff can coach up any QB they draft.

    And for anyone saying "Peyton" can do that, is not always correct. Peyton does a lot of things that cannot be taught, especially in a short time and that is assuming he can be a good coach which is not always a sure thing.

    Having said all that, pretty sure the team comes out looking to take care of business. Probably hated how their played against the Panthers and want to show they are a better team than that.
