Question

I think the way Caldwell handled it was awful. He should have pulled Peyton after a drive or two if he wasn't planning on keeping him in a 5 point game in the 3rd quarter.

Also this is my biggest question, why keep him in the whole Jags game on the road if you weren't worried about going undefeated at all?? That's what I really don't get.

I don't disagree with taking the players out to stay healthy especially against a good defense who can get pressure on the QB but the way they handled it was bad.

The playoffs are a crap shoot and I'm sure this didn't change many peoples mind considering the Chargers have been awarded the AFC champs by almost everyone already..we'll just wait and see in the playoffs.

It&#x27;s a lot easier when you are staring down a 3.5 favorite then dump every penny you have on the Jets like Caldwell did.  Hopefully his &#x27;nephew&#x27; will give him the money he secretly bet.

Yea I still don&#x27;t get why you would bet on the Colts these last few weeks, doesn&#x27;t make much sense to me.

it&#x27;s obvious the coach got the call at halftime from the man upstair...Honestly, you guys really think Indy only -3 at home if they&#x27;re going all out trying to get the record.  BTW, I&#x27;m not just saying this after the game.  I was all over the Colts last week against the Jags and made it clear the Jets is the play last Sunday Night when the line came out for this game at &#x2B;6.5.BOL tonight everyone...Dogs bite in both single games.

I think it&#x27;s a big deal for the fact of when he pulled them, and frankly that&#x27;s the only thing that bothers me as a Colts fan.  If he was pulling them up 5 in the 3rd quarter why not take them out earlier to avoid injury?  It doesn&#x27;t make sense at all.

Maybe Caldwell didn&#x27;t wanna have the pressure on him going undefeated into the playoffs. Who knows though.
