Chargers @ Colts Game Thread

[TheSanityAnnex]

-Darren Sproles got two return TDs in the Week 10 game. That more than likely will not happen again.
-Vinatieri shanked two kicks he should have made. The first one I can see why he missed it since they were running the fire drill, but the second he should have made. That more than likely will not happen again.
-Peyton was picked off six times and that slowed the offense down the entire first half. With his top receivers healthy this time, that will not happen again.
-The Colts D contained LT to what like 75 yards on 21 carries? Puh-leeze.
-The Colts DBs have the size to match up with SD's receivers, and will play them physical.
-The Colts have the edge in coaching, multiplied by 10 to the power of 5.

That is a lot of "more than likely won't happen agains".

Any other questions? With Gates hurt, I can't see the Chargers pulling it out. All the homerism between us aside, the Colts have the better team.

Just saw an interview with Gates who looked upbeat and said it is a sprained toe. Should be able to play. Psst.....Chambers and Jackson had impressive games today.

All the homerism between us aside, the Colts may in fact have the better team, but the Chargers seem to find a way to win.

harrisson chokes more than peyton come playoff time, yes it's possible to choke more than manning when it matters, so how JT thinks having him will impact the game is beyond me.
Wayne and Addai are your clutch players, if they play, you'll win. If any of the two doesn't, the Bolts win.

Yeah last I checked Wayne's not on the injury report at all and Addai said in an interview he feels as healthy as he did in Week 1, so good call there. Harrison commands defensive attention no matter what. It might play in favor of the Colts because teams may think he's not 100% since he hasn't played since October and get burned.

Two out of six is "a lot"? Whaaaaaaaat?

BTW is this game really going to be played at 11AM CST?

As much as I hate JT and his homerism, I agree.

The Colts have the edge in this game, but if they get past it and if NE gets past the Jags, the Colts will get smoked. JT should be happy with one playoff win this season and his bandwagoning ass should get ready to wear the Pats colors next season.

No mention of Addai's 56 yards on 22 carries? Puh-leeze.

Dude I wouldn't wear the Pats colors if you gave me a free pound of coke. I was going to play the million dollars card but I'd root for the Pats if someone paid me a tax free million. Money talks.

Yeah teams really try to run the ball when they're down by 16 early in the game.

You should quit grabbing at straws man. The Chargers win earlier this year is the exception to the rule and you somehow believe that it's the rule.

[TheSanityAnnex]

And the year before?

[J.T.]

Bostonguy sighting! Let me post for him.

The Pats are the best team EVER! Even if the Colts beat the Chargers they will get owned by the greatest qb ever Tom Brady and the God of Gods coach Bill Bellacheck.

Same amount of carries as LT, less yards. Did I grab the big straw?

[bostonguy]

I expect the Colts to win this game. A choking Charger team shouldnt have the honor of dethroning the Colts. That honor should be for the Patriots 2 weeks from today in Foxboro! Colts will win this game.

[J.T.]

TSA might be more of a homer than me. Wow. I am shocked.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Yeah, my LT avatar totally gives me away.

[J.T.]

I see what you did there.

[TheSanityAnnex]

I'm looking forward to this game. San Diego seems to give Manning trouble with their pass rush, which wasn't used today at all. I'm expecting big days from Sean and Shaun.

I never said they were on IR, I was just telling you that those two are the ones who matter in the postseason.
And I'm glad you are not a blind homer and you realize how much of chokers peyton and Marvin are.

If you call leading an 18 point comeback victory while nutting all over the Patriots choking then yeah I guess you're right.

Brady fumbled.

[monosylab1k]

Colts win easy. Seriously, six interceptions and you barely squeak out a win in the most pathetic fashion possible?

I'd love nothing more than for the Chargers to win this game, because that guarantees that the Patriots are in the Super Bowl.

[TheSanityAnnex]

When was the last time the Colts beat the Chargers?

[san antonio spurs]

I see...
You've been a colts fan since last year in the AFC championship game. You weren't even a fan in the wildcard game.

JT seems loyal, don't confuse him with Mono.

[J.T.]

When was the last time the Colts beat the Chargers?

2004 when Manning broke the TD record.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Ahh yes......the one where you squeaked by in OT.
You are nervous, admit it.

[san antonio spurs]

It's called sarcasm.
He choosed to forget all those years when peyton and marvin would choke time and time again. Heck he was a choker even last year in the wild card and divisional games.
as for his loyalty... who am I to judge??

[J.T.]

Ahh yes......the one where you squeaked by in OT.

Sure I'm nervous, SD is a good team that's beaten us recently. But the most recent game proved that the Colts D can contain the Chargers offense. I am not that worried with healthy receivers this time around. You seem to think I should be paranoid about having to play the Bolts... I'm not. Get over it.
