Your probably right, because the Jets and fish are in your division. I would like to ask which team out of your division do you dislike the most, or atleast want to beat the most.
12 AFC teams not indivision (cross conference not really a rivalry unless the teams meet froquently in SB). Order of amount of teams would like to beat the most:
who cares (all Ii want is a win):
Texas
Titans
Jaguars
Browns
Bengals
CHiefs
CHargers
If the Colts get better and start to beat us, if they ever knock us out of the playoffs, then they may get past Denver. But right now I would LOVE to smash the crap out of Denver, much more that the Colt, who are not nearly as good as ESPN thinks they are.

You know, there were some great videos of JR Redmond in college, too. Dolts fans are reaching badly if they think Addai is better than Maroney. They are also reaching if they think Indy would have taken Addai over Maroney if both were on the board.
Absolutely true, that is what happens when you pick late as we all know all too well. It makes the Pats' current dynasty all that much more impressive.
There is good reason to believe that if we had picked ahead of the Colts last year we would have picked Marlin Jackson.
I agree that Colts fans are slanting the truth to make themselves believe they got the better back but I wanted to get other people's opinion because I am going to slant it somewhat because I'm a Pat's fans. You all will too but I think the more people's opinions we get on it the closer to the truth we will get. I personally think Addai looks like a nice player, but he is not going to be the All-Pro stud Indy fans are making him out to be. Most unColt reviews seem to think he is a jack of all trades, master of none type player. He does many things well but nothing exceptionally. I think the Kevin Faulk comparisons are pretty valid, only that Kevin had a better college career. People on the Colts board were comparing him to another Faulk who plays for the Rams.
I think the most apt comparison is to... Patrick Pass. A fair blocker, fair receiver, fair straitish-line runer, fair size, fair power, in general a fair player...
You really care that much about the Raiders? I think they are pretty irrelevant because they are so bad. I really don't consider them a rival, nor do I particularly dislike them. For me, the Broncos are our #1 rival, in division or out, who I would love to beat, simply because they are the only team that has been able to consistently beat us over the dynasty. After that it would be the Steelers, then the Colts. Pittsburgh hasn't been able to beat us in an important game any more than Indianappolis has, but at least they have one the Superbowl.

I have not gotten over 1976. I don't see them as rivals right now because they suck so back, but it wasn't that long ago that Raider trolls were all over this board. Well, I guess it was five years
But I take more pleasure out of beating them than any other team.

There's a reason every draft analyst and football mind in the free world had Maroney rated over Addai before the draft. He's better, that's it. Anyone who thinks otherwise (especially a Colts fan) is practicing revisionist history.
Highlight videos are cool and they can tell you something about a guy, but you can't compare players with highlight videos. If you could, Maurice Drew would have been a 1st rounder.
LOL. How true. I'd still love to see him returning punts on the Pats.
No regrets about Maroney, though. He's got all the potential. Just a matter of how much he wants it.
Personally, I think Addai is okay, but he stands up too high when he runs. He's going to get teed off on in the NFL if he continues to run like that. I think Maroney and DeAngelo Williams are the 2 best pure RB's in this year's draft.
Of course I might be just a little partial to DeAngelo. He gave us 4 electrifying years at Memphis.
I was scanning a Colts message board when I came across a posted highlight video of Addai. Colts fans were drooling over themselves saying this proves he is better than Maroney. I don't watch college football so I have seen neither Addai or Maroney in action. Is this video impressive? How does it compare to Maroney's and does that mean anything?
"situational" back in the NFL I would imagine. He is a TOTALLY different back than Maroney........He does remind me of a slightly faster Antowain Smith....gets a few yards and goes down......Maroney is a bullet train......Addai doesn't have that 2nd or 3rd gear quick burst like Maroney.....Maroney is going to be a PRO bowl RB in the NFL.....Addai will be a average back......nothing special........Colts will be hurting at RB this year unless they make a trade for FA.....one man's opinion
They wanted Maroney, they didnt get him. This is what Colts fans do, compare everything to the Pats, and how each and every Colt is better than the Patriots. Maroney, from the videos I have seen is frigging incredible, I'd rather have him than Addai. Addai might be good but thats a huge de grade from Edge. Once the running game fails for them, Manning will have to go for 5000 yards passing, and get picked off 20 times in the process.
Also, I would love to kick Denver's ass this year. Broncos fans wont shut up, about it. It was their most glorious moment since the Elway days to beat the Pats, but the Pats beat themselves. You could tell that our offense was exhausted for most of the game. The defense played great, but no blame layed on anyone. It was just ugly. And I hope at Foxboro this year it will be ugly for the Broncos.

They'll find out Randy can't run consistently anymore. He'll drive [Tom] Brady and [Bill] Belichick crazy. This is just my personal opinion from what I saw: He's losing his legs. He's becoming an old man fast.
