Here is why the PATS will SMOKE INDY next week.

[IDENTITY]

Because INDY's defensive backs STINK and Tom Brady is going to have a field day at home. You cannot win championships without a defense. Period.

 

[THEBUFFROCK]

I agree...............but Indy looks awfully good! Hard to believe that they scored 49 points without Harrison or Stokley scoring a TD. Kinda scary!

The Pat will smoke Indy next week if you have a "Lock and Load, break the piggy bank, heavy, reallly really really heavy, Big, super big, huge, identifier" on Indy. LOL

 

[HoosierDaddy]

You also have to look at the line though. The Pats have been cover machines yet at some outs they are only laying 2.5? The books know that they will get heavy Pats money.to move that line up. That line looks a little fishy to me.

 

[FairWarning]

If Indy gets more than a score up, NE is toast. That offense is rollin' right now.

 

[NEWPORT]

The line will stay pretty steady, and actually move to Indy by the end of the week.


ONE REASON.....THE MEDIA AND EVERYONE ELSE FOR THAT MATTER HAVE TITLED THIS

"PEYTON'S YEAR" That is what you will see happen this week at the casinos

Newport...

Let them do it. Peyton can't win in the Razor. Going NE. That defense didn't look good and with Morris out now...

Let's Go Pats...beat Marino wanna be...

That D looked pretty good with the game in doubt (1st half). Key for NE would be to keep within a score. Should be a good 1st half over.

weve seen what happens to a team when everything goes thier way(chargers) and now were deeper into the playoffs and payton manning will hear all the talk start back up about how he couldnt win the BIG game as a vol and hasnt won the big one as a colt,and the patriots probably have been prepping for the colts all along.i wouldnt be shocked to see them do what wade phillips did when the chargers played them.confuse and slow down manning and let the media get into his head. hes damn good but hes always been good. he just cant seem to rise above himself as all champions do when challenged.go pats

 

[BigLu]

I love you Roxy....LOL!!!

I think it's fair to keep in mind that NE's defense is better than INDY's, but far from great with their current personnel. They cannot blitz effectively against INDY's front line and their secondary is weak after injuries. The NFL changed rules to help out Harrison and reduce NE-style dominance.

The public is enamored of both teams, but Indy is sexier and has revenge with at least the appearance of the skills and confidence to get that revenge. They certainly are better than last year, while NE is probably the same or a little worse. Indy has played at NE twice in a year and Manning one of the greatest ever overcoming crowd noise AND running the show from the line of scrimmage. I think line will be pretty stable at 2.5/3 +10

OVER seems SO clear here. Only 20+ MPH swirling winds could keep this under 50. Normal light winds put the score at about 31-27...38-34 wouldn't surprise.

I feel sorry for Troy Brown next week. The loss of Ty Law will be bigger than people think. Whoever Brown is covering is where the ball is going, watch. Not a Colts fan, but Manning will exploit the weak link in the secondary.
