Re: Peyton Throws Somebody Else Under the Bus - This Time It's a Patriot That Messed Up
Peyton also mentioned how he could read all the Pats' blitzes, as I recall singling out Colvin and Vrabel, saying something like "I know when they're coming, I have 2 eyes don't I?"
About the bashing: we're not terrible. The sky's not falling. But the Colts are better than us right now. Period. They scored more points.
Eight weeks, gentlemen... is this more like 2003 (frinstance) or 2002? We'll know in a couple of months.
First thing's first though... now we're only 2 games ahead of the JEST, with a loss to them looming, if all goes as it shouldn't. I see a bounce-back game, not a "trap," but suddenly even our dominance in the division COULD be threatened, as early as Sunday afternoon, if the team dwells on Indy like we are.
Enough about Peyton. He's a great QB, probably Canton-bound. We're watching the next generation of the Marino/Montana matchup... but both these guys played like mortals last weekend (Brady moreso than Peyton.) I can't blame him if he hates hearing about how BB "gets in his head," and I can't blame him for throwing out this kind of barb. It'll just make the playoff matchup that much sweeter -- PROVIDED we get to their level.
And I repeat, we AIN'T THERE YET!
Ugly to admit but it's true.
