    Definitely it won't be a laugher I agree. And I think these teams are lot more even than people think.

    The Saints D isn't good in terms of stats except the most important one... turnovers.

    They have been pretty opportunistic to say the least.


    Sometimes its better to be lucky than good.

    The Colts secondary better for sure play better than they did today. They made Sanchez look good...that ish won't work against the Saints passing game. I hear everyone saying Manning will tear the Saints to shreds, but last I checked the Saints had the #1 scoring offense in the league. In other words, they are fine winning in a shootout, and they can score just as quickly as the Colts can. So again I ask, can the Colts secondary stop the Saints? I'm not convinced after watching them today.

    Two sides to the game. That "****ty" Saints D you're talking about held Brett f'n Favre to 6.7 yards per pass attempt and the Vikings to 5.8 yards per play. Meanwhile, the Colts allowed 8.6 yards per pass and 6.5 yards per play to freakin' Mark Sanchez and the Jets.

    Truth be told, I think that's probably the best "strategy" to beat the Colts. I think the game today showed it's not even possible to physically overwhelm Peyton/the Colts for 60 minutes the way the Patriots used to at times. He's eventually going to figure out your holes and carve you up. Best chance is to have an offense that can somewhat keep pace, and try to force a couple big turnovers. The Jets almost did it today, but Wayne's fumble bounced right back to him and that was their only true shot.

    80 yard bomb skewers that a bit, but Sanchez did make some pretty decent throws.


    One thing I noticed about him this season is he tends to make good reads on 3rd down.

    Saints could have easily lost this game had it not been for bone-headed plays and turnovers.

    Colts play a near perfect game in terms of TO's and Penalties the Saints can't afford to play sloppy like they did today.
