Look at Matt Cassel's last eight quarters: 69 percent passing, 452 yards, almost eight yards per play, superb in this era's NFL. He's not afraid. He's also 4.7-percent ahead of Peyton Manning right now in completion percentage for the season. Not to stat you to death or anything.

The Colts have to have this game. They can't go to 3-5. They are coming off a short week, so it's a tough situation to play their nemesis. The Patriots are winning, but are they playing that well? I'll take Peyton Manning over Matt Cassel in this one.

Patriots 20

Patriots RBs Sammy Morris and LaMont Jordan are listed as questionable for this week. RB Kevin Faulk should get the bulk of the carries against a Colts defense that gave up 77 yards to Chris Johnson on 19 carries. Colts QB Peyton Manning faces a Patriots defense that is missing Rodney Harrison (torn thigh muscle) and needs James Sanders to take better routes to the ball.

Neither one of these teams is proven. It's anyone's guess Sunday.

Novacek's Picks: Marquee wins for Giants, Colts - NFL - NBCSports.com


This isn't the same game we've been used to seeing the last few seasons. Usually it's a test to figure out ways one team could get beat. This year, it's figuring out how a team will win, because neither one is impressive. The Colts are feeling the pressure. They missed chances to beat the Titans and have to win this game to even think about the playoffs. I think Peyton Manning has to get the Colts on the board first. If he can't direct a couple early scoring drives, Indy will struggle. And if the Colts take the early lead, I don't think the Patriots can keep up. Matt Cassel isn't comfortable at quarterback, but it'll be up to him to make plays because the Patriots' backfield is so banged up. The Colts are quick enough to take away Cassel's short passes and will force him to beat them deep. I don't see him making those passes.

Pick: Colts

We win this game, Guys and Gals.

I think Bill out coaches the Colts in this game, it's going to be a defensive masterpiece.

pats don't travel well at all this year, as evidenced by their 30-10 loss in sd
