Colts down 14-0 early. Peyton looks off. Hopefully we can get something going or this could get ugly.
 
As much as I love the COLTS, this isn't OUR team. You loose more than half the starters, then lose almost half of their replacements, it is not surprising that we are struggling here. Hopefully we can hang in there but this was going to be a nasty challenge even before the first snap. The last one who would use losing players as an excuse is the Colt's but sometimes you have to face the reality.
 
They've never had a dominating D. They play well with the lead but struggle against high powered offenses. Especially the Patriots.

Reggie Wayne catches an 11 yard TD pass to end the half.

IND 14
NE 21

New England gets the ball to start the 2nd half.
 
Manning looks like a guy playing with out all his options, the guy is human... I mean you don't have Clark, Collie, Addai, Hart - let's understand that this is not the Colts at full strength. Anyone who thought they were going to go in to NE and win is crazy under these circumstances. You don't have Sessions, Brackett, Sanders, Bulliitt and the list goes on and on yet the Colts are still in the game. They don't quit and 18 is the best that I will ever see in my life! Just throw the ball to 87 and be done with it... Colts not ready to throw in the towel yet.

No defense by the Colts as usual and Peyton looks like Jay Cutler

Funny. I am watching the same game and I am thinking, damn are these guys playing balls out, especially when they are down as many players as they are. I guess it is perception, but as under-manned as we are, I think they are playing their hearts out.

Nobody on the Colt's uses injuries as an excuse but get real egc, there is not an NFL team anywhere NEAR where we are with 12 starters out and half of their replacements out. They played with heart and could have won the game. That is all you can ask. Playing the Bengals with these guys is one thing, playing the Patriots is another. I am proud to be a Colt today.

"Next Man Up!" is a motivational ploy because sometimes the next man up is not good enough no matter how well they play.

317, I agree with you 100%. They aren't complaining about the injuries. They haven't all season, but reality is what it is.

sometimes reality sucks--that leaves 2 options.
!. whine and complain
2. next man up--do the best you can with you have. Today it wasn't quite good enough. I believe that next time it will be.
