It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Too early to speculate...with Manning, there are always ways to wins games. They have been hot out of teh starting gate the past two years...see what happens THIS year with the target on their back. I think they may find the going a bit rougher..Don't wish to see an overreaction of saying that they can not do it and then have a surprise rebound. They are the champs..let them defend thr crown as Pitts did..falling flat quick...as Tampa did..and being out of mighty quick as NE did...Nah...I think we will see that repeating is NOT easy at all and the 03/04 seasons were something very special.Personally, I have a hate-on for the Colts so I may be seeing things a bit cloudy, but the Colts seem to shaping up as wannabes this year. They lost too much from an already horrible D during the off season and with the recent news of the Glenn retirement and the McFarland injury it seems to me like the writing is on the wall.
Peyton is in for a long year. He might put up the stats but don't be surprised if Jax takes the division from them this year and the colts finish 9-7 or worse.
If Indy is just as good as they were last year, they have a 10% - at best - chance of winning the SB. It took near divine intervention to get them one last year. I doubt that will happen again.
+1. No way their D can step up like they did in the playoffs last year.
