Re: It's F-ing Colts Week
 

One thing Manning doesn't like is pressure and getting beat up. I expect pressure at the right times, not all the time or he'll shred this team during blitzes.

Re: It's F-ing Colts Week
 

I expect to see more cover 2 w/a lot of mixed coverages & occassional blitzes. I think Haslett has seen that while the front 4 (3 d line + Rak) don't get immediate pressure, if the coverage is good Rak & a someone else will get to the qb. His blitzing strategy has improved a lot, just need to work on leaving so many soft spots in the zones.

Manning will get some yards but won't score much. I think we will control the clock in the 2nd half, get 1 or 2 turnovers & win this one convincingly, 24-13.

I'm actually expecting a convincing win myself.

But then afterwards the spin machine will be in full effect. Manning was off, they're injured in the secondary, this guy tripped and tore his achilles. I swear if won by 30 points the naysayers would say the Colts had an off night, not that the Skins won.

Better blocking is going to help Torain more than anything. I think by now the coaches know him pretty well.[/quote]

Well, your always right Matty. Think you and missed my point completly.

[quote=firstdown;747287][B]I say we have so many weaknesses in the pass D that Manning gets confused on where to throw the ball[/B]. While he hesitates on where to pass next we pound him into the ground until he cannot get up. When he does finally make it to the side line had has that dumb look on his face like his brother. Our running game gets going and opens up our passing game and Moss and AA both have a TD.

Skins:28/17[/quote]

Yeah we suck so bad that it will confuse Manning... OK! Keep dreaming!

35/17 Colts

I'm kind of expecting a peak performance. Not saying it will be the peak of the season, but we'll have more big letdowns to come, just not this game.

In fairness to the spinners, the Skins are one of many teams this year that the experts et al just can't seem to make sense of. The parity this year is so far as great as I've ever seen I believe. If teams like Dallas, Minn. & SD get on track this season could produce the most 8-8 teams ever.

I hope we continue the trend of owning Bill Pansy Polian. What's his record against us anyway?

Its call a joke. Do also you need to see more of them before you recognize one? LOL

Re: It's F-ing Colts Week
 

This is a tough one to predict (aren't they all?) Now the good thing is that the Colts are coming off a win, I would have hated if we had to face a desperate Colts team. Our offense and Haslett's discipline as a defensive play caller will be key. The Colts D is terrible, and we need more out of our offense in order to keep Manning on the sidelines. We can't have a sh*tty performance out of McNabb and Co.

In the defensive side of the ball, Haslett cannot go blitz-crazy against Manning. The Colts have no running game, so we'll need to make sure to avoid the big passing plays and keep an eye on dump off passes. Hopefully having Godzilla back will help with creating a pass rush with just our 3 d-linemen (or 4 if we have 4-3 formations), the Colts o-line is not the best and I don't think we are going to need to blitz at all.
