When you turnover the ball 21 times, clearly somebody else is stepping up to help get the job done.

The Colts still have four games left, and anything could happen. Same for the Redskins. There's a likelihood that both teams wind up with identical records by season's end, then all of this "Colts have more wins" excuse will be futile.

and the colts have been lucky enough to not play the texans yet, the best team in the AFC.

lucky for Luck, he will be playing the Texans in week 15 & 17. Houston might have the AFC homefield advantage already wrapped up, and the Texans might be resting a lot of their starters....making it much easier for Indy to beat them.

If the Colts had to play Houston twice in the middle of the season instead of the last week of the season and resting starters, that's 2 automatic losses...

They are both so good, you take either one, and I will be happy with the other.

Screw Kurt Warner!

That's what people automatically assume just because you had a bad prior season! Look at the facts!! The Colt's schedule is no easier than anyone elses!

Bears??

Packers?

Vikings?

Lions? (screw their record! They are dangerous)

Texans twice! Doesn't matter! The Colts could still sneak up and win the division if they lose and we win out.

Patriots? We saw how EASY that was for us!

The Dolphins are very good.

Now throw the softies like the Jags and Browns....and....

Oh ....hold the phone!! The Chiefs are coming up at Arrowhead and they seem to have a "rallying point" now! Might now be a easy as thought!!

So look at the facts! That is NOT the easiest schedule in the NFL!

Congratulations RG3!!! Voted Pepsi's ROOKIE OF THE WEEK!!! THAT'S 3 WEEKS IN A ROW!

He was also voted Rookie of the month in November!!! Griffin has now been Rookie of the Week 6 out of 13 weeks, ans he is clearly the front runner for Rookie of the Year

I honestly thought Russel Wilson deserved it more this week, his comeback victory over the Bears nasty defense IN chicago was very impressive.

Um, the facts were just posted, Indy has one of the 3 easiest schedules in the league to this point littered with mediocre pass defenses. They have done poorly against teams with good pass defenses.

Just the facts. No rant changes that.
