GL BUD I like the Colts also..Rivers is not bad, but he is not Peyton

Cheesesteaks · Answer

I like your top 3 reasons but one thing about the colts that gets overlooked is their pass d, it&#x27;s pretty good.Add to that the Bolts have transitioned to a passing team, last week being the exception, and the balance tips in the Colts&#x27; favor.Oh yeah, the Colts have been there before.Just a footnote...it is quite a piece of bullshit that an 8-8 team hosts a playoff game. IMO the riles need to be amended that after the playoff teams are finalized they are re-seeded by wins and loses.This rewards the better teams!!

Just look at the coaching.Tony Dungy=Sure Fire HOFNorv Turner=Good Laugh. I love his reactions when he gets angry. The networks always get a good close-up of his ugly face. I can&#x27;t wait for this moment.Good luck

steett19 · Answer

good points all aroundthe coaching match-up is in our favor for sure. Norv is a terrible head coach.one thing that also helps us is a revenge angle from last year when the  Colts got beat by SD at SD in the playoffs, great game - shootout. ...hopefully,  the Colts haven&#x27;t forgotten about it. SD is due for a letdown after coming back to win the division. Indy is absolutely on fire right now nad should be rested and ready for this game. hard to see Peyton Manning having a bad game when the Chargers have a non-existent pass rush. no Merriman, no real pass rush. not even sure if we need Addai in there or not. i see alot of Manning to Clark and Wayne.

BTK · Answer

Last year when the colts played the Chargers they didnt have Freeney, Freeney is now making Mathis even better. There front line has gotten great and the pass rush is there.

First it does not seem to me that Vegas likes the Colts, 70% of the bets are on the Colts and the line has not budged, Gambling 1-A I think we all know what the implication is there, they want money on the Colts.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Second Rivers has been on fire as well as the offense, with all offensive weapons counted for each team I give a slight edge to SD.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Third, where SD is weak is in line backer pass coverage, advantage Colts, but Manning does get confused by the 3-4 at times.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;The last five games have been close, I think Indy has a slight advantage but to claim a blowout I am not so sure, I think it is a close game but your right coaching could make a difference.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;I do not buy into the revenge factor as having much to do with who wins, turnovers and mistakes will settle this one.  I just can&#x27;t help but believe that the books like SD.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;GL to all I actually think its going to be a good game.  In my opinion winner of this one could run the table.

The 8-8 record doesn&#x27;t reflect this team that was banged up most of the season.  They have been healthy for 5 weeks now and guess what, they are 5-0.  with that said i think 2 favs and 2 doggies cover this weekend and this is one of the favs that covers.

wallstreetcappers · Answer

Cry me a River has MUCH better stats with a worse defense and tougher schedule down the stretch than Indy.

SD also has a more balanced offense than Indy and playing at home, this game smells bad to me.

Gotta go with SD personally.

claycourtlesson · Answer

The most important factor in this game, no doubt, is the "public vs Vegas" angle.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Not at all for sure who the public is on in this game, BUT..........&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;EVERY SINGLE YAHOO at work is touting Indy to win.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Makes me think this...........$D Bolt$

steett19 · Answer

no question this will be a close game. could be the last one with the ball. Colts have the edge with Vinateri as well. i just can't see Peyton Manning letting his team lose this one. unless SD's defense plays the game of their life, i think the Colts will score easily

Happy new year MLB...Lets just say I have concerns with this game that I did not have last week...

INDY gave up 6 passing TD's (NFL record for 16 game season) ....LT may not be 100%....INDY 9 straight wins and Manning's name being tossed around as MVP...

In the games where we beat Manning he threw 11 INT's due to our ability to put pressure on him, remains to be seen if new Defensive Coordinator can continue this pressure with what he has...

Throw in some injuries for indy and maybe the return of defensive player of the year sanders and the fact these games usually are close has me thinking I will just be a "fan" on this one and watch a great game...

I have to be pretty confident to lay money, vs. luck so no reason to this week...I made my call last week and collected

Game could go either way as far as I am concerned..GO BOLTS!!

Gulgo · Answer

I&#x27;m unsure that the Colts will "destroy" the Chargers on Saturday. It looks to me as a pretty close match-up possibly as close as a last minute field goal.

Wildcatter1 · Answer

Now a pick em.  Rivers is hot, Bolts healthy, LT will be the difference, Bolts 31-30

bandit1010 · Answer

Street--with you absolutely on the Indy pick.  One more reason:&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Bob Sanders&#xD;&#xA;Bob Sanders&#xD;&#xA;Bob Sanders&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;I believe this guy and Ray Lewis are the Best D players in the league.  Bobby sets the tone and mood on this team, and for this game.

RickeM · Answer

I like Indy here as well. People are over-thinking this game. It is not that difficult.

BJ_Penn1 · Answer

"cry me a river" played with a torn acl last year in the playoffs &#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;thats pimp

BJ_Penn1 · Answer

i like SD here.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;1. Home field&#xD;&#xA;2. getting points (on 1.5 but still)&#xD;&#xA;3. Chargers are definitely a home team&#xD;&#xA;4. Colts already beat them once in SD, gonna be hard to do it twice&#xD;&#xA;5. Indy defense will be exposed by the run

gollum · Answer

rivers had better numbers than peyton for the record, not saying hes better but more yards more tds less picks 10 pt better passer rating. not sure who wins this one but rivers is a solid qb

steett19 · Answer

Kaboom!!!Manning is in complete control.

wallstreetcappers · Answer

Really?Pretty early to call anything, but he is hardly dominating this game and that is against the second to worst secondary and NO pressure at all.

why i love the Colts to destroy the Chargers on Sat.
