I'm not sure what to think of Jax or Carolina yet. San Diego should be good.
It is a tough stretch though.

The ONE thing Colts camp DOES like is the fact that the Pats' bye week comes just after they play @ Colts. Maroney and Harrison MAY very well be IR'd by that point anyway But if not, they may be more than a little banged up by then.

I've learned to read between the lines.

It's tough because Jacksonville has given them a hard time lately, and their physical. Caroline is physical, NE's physical, and the Chargers are physical.
Except when you try a lateral on a punt return on the road in the fourth quarter that gets botched and ends up costing the team a victory and a playoff spot (see Carolina @ Vikings) WORST play call in the history of the game!Exactly. No matter how those teams end up doing, they play physical and are well-coached.

I actually like John Fox. I think he's a good coach. I hear the brass has given him the ole, "playoffs or else" ultimatum.
Pats will have played eight straight weeks without the benefit of a bye week. Colts get a break in week six. Just saying the Pats at that point might be limping into the bye week.
I feel likw the Panters have been expected to be good since the 2003 Superbowl and they have just been average, if even that good.
*coughcough*Jake Delhomme*coughcough*
Yeah he's played awful at times, but their defense couldn't really stop anyone last year.
Bad, good, it really does not matter. Each organization will spin it into a positive when the bye week rolls around. Yeah, what I am saying IS just for that ONE game. But that ONE game last year gave the Colts HFA over the Pats. IMO, that ONE game carries HUGE implications.So then isn't it a good thing that the Patriots have a mid-season bye week? Why would that be a thing that the Colts fans are happy about?
I'm confused in that regard.
Yeah you guys might be 'fresher' for the contest, but coming off of back to back road games against physical teams I wouldn't bet on it.
And if the Pats are banged up, then they can use the bye week to get healthy for the stretch run. The scenario might be good for that ONE game (NE at Indy) but it's clearly an advantage for the Pats during the scope of the whole season.
