When we get Mathis back, we will be a top defensive unit.When they get Clowney back, that D will be a topo 5 unit.

Guess who is still "Perfect" in his predictions...
All bets are off going forward, though.
I have the Colts losing the next three games. And while they're certainly able to lose these games...the Steelers (play tonight) and the Giants just aren't very good this year - as compared to years past. Plus, the Colts generally struggle against the AFC North (well, most of them...) and against most NFC opponents.
Colts may have a slight advantage next weekend due to the Steeler's 1-day less rest, but don't count on it. And Eli Manning is capable of having a 400yd day at any point.
I'll stick with my loss against the Patriots, though.
After yesterday's game, I think the Colts might not be up for the Steelers, but I'm not so sure that they won't come back and win at least one out of the next three.
Ah, well yeah. My point is that after playing so hard, especially defensively, as well as, riding high on a 5 game winning streak, I think it might be hard for them to regroup mentally for the next game. I hope I'm wrong.Were we watching the same game?
I have to admit, I'm getting ahead of my self but that Dallas game in week 16 could be game of the year material.
I've only been able to stomach short stretches of the Steelers games I've seen on TV. They're not that good, plus they're coming off a short week. They're only a 3 pt favorite tonight at home.

I'm eating a little crow. They looked great this afternoon.
Not gloating...it was a loss. It did look like the Steelers, especially Roethlisberger was as fired up as we were flat.Credit where credit's due - the Colts D, short handed, but still gave up over 500 passing yards yesterday and the D-line was THOROUGHLY THRASHED by the Pittsburg O-line. Give Big Ben that kind of time and you're going down hard. They did. The pick 6 from Luck didn't help, but it didn't cost them the game. The O scored plenty, the D just couldn't even stand up to that Pittsburg O-line. Big Ben needed a lawn chair back there.

I was surprised that we put up the numbers we did with the O and D line under-performing like they did.Big Ben is an incredible QB, proven over the years, got rings to prove it. However, with that much time, just about any NFL QB worth his salt could have racked up big numbers. Never seen an O-Line that dominant. Indy couldn't blitz. They could have blitzed 13 and still not ever laid a hand on him. It was painful.
