Or is it teacher vs. pupil vs. teacher with all of the Kubiak, Mike and Kyle connections?

Foster had a great game last week but let's not lose sight of how bad Indy's defense is. They aren't scaring anyone defensively, especially in the run defense area. That being said, our best bet is to shut down the run to force the ball into Schaub's hands. It's really pick your poison but our pass rush/secondary is the strength of the defense so I'd rather put it on them than leaving up to Kemo, Carriker and Golston.

Offensively, we've got to work the middle of the field. I don't know why we didn't see any seam routes at the safeties last week. Our defense spent too much time on the field and offensively I don't think we ever got into a rhythm so that factors into how sluggish we seemed. Brighter days are ahead and they start Sunday!
