CWSGuy406 Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 13, 2007 -> 10:56 PM) Some of that may very well be the Bears defense simply knowing that they didn't need to win any more for the last few weeks of the year. Combine that with injuries, and the defense could look a lot worse than it really is. This is true. While Tony is right in that the D hasn't been intimidating, guys who shouldn't be out there have been playing significant downs, most notably Devin Hester. I appreciate his Special Teams powress, but the guy can't cover. I can't remember the last time I saw Tillman, Vasher, and Manning Jr all on the field 100% healthy. None of them are true shutdown corners, but all three are good #2-3s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Who knows what would've happened had the ref not blew the whistle on that Ed Reed interception. Might not have changed the outcome of the game but we'll never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 So...the team standing between Peyton and the Super Bowl will either be his nemesis team or the team that ended their undefeated run in 05. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greasywheels121 Posted January 14, 2007 Author Share Posted January 14, 2007 Hahahah f*** yes!!! Indy's defense was f***ing money all day. Peyton owes this team a game next week, because he's tried to give away two. If you told Baltimore that they were going to hold Indy to 15 points, they would've been thinking about plans for the AFC Championship. Insane. And I love Vinateiri; that was such a huge get for us this offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, your team has two more wins before they can be champions, only halfway there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not talking about the championship. I'm just saying I want the Colts to have to beat New England in the playoffs before they win a Super Bowl. Regardless, Indy's going to have a ridiculous time winning next week. Keep this up D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Peyton Manning is ten times the quarterback Grossman is. Oh, sorry. Because Manning has a better team around him, offensively, than Grossman. And, well, Manning hasn't exactly faced heavyweights. I was never impressed by the Ravens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Manning has a better team around him, offensively, than Grossman. And, well, Manning hasn't exactly faced heavyweights. I was never impressed by the Ravens. Doesn't matter if he's 20 times the QB Grossman is...15/30, 170 yards, 2 INT's, 0 TD's, coming after a 3 INT game last week, those aren't good lines, and yet the Colts are still winning. In other words, their defense is playing ball, which is exactly what the Bears need to do tomorrow. And if you're going to cut down what the Colts have done by saying they haven't faced heavyweights, I'd say they've faced better teams than anyone the Bears will have to face except maybe the Saints.

Saints had the ball with about 4 minutes left, ran a pitch to Reggie and it was fumbled. Eagles jumped on it. Eagles in trouble though now, 4th and 15. Eagles punt it away, 1:48 left, Saints ball. First down Saints. Barring something insane happening, game over. Edited January 14, 2007 by Rowand44 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
