Likes the Colts over the Pats says the Pats just can not get it done and picked Cinny to win the SB.
That is bullcrap!

TJ: " .. I'll tell you what, when it comes to the Colts, they have a balanced attack, for the first time, they're running the ball ... and their defense is stellar .. so I really don't think .... I think this is a different team, uh .. and I'm not sure the Patriots can get it done ... "
Q: .. so if they meet in the playoffs, you don't think the Patriots can beat them ?"
TJ: "You know honestly .. my honest opinion is ... that they can't. I really don't think .. I think our secondary is still too young .. theres not I lot of cont- .. you know these guys in a pressure situation .... I'll never forget, a coach telling me one time in the playoffs, 'Don't be the guy to send us home' ... I mean, that's a lot of pressure ... and these young guys ... we have two rookies back there ... and Asante, he's struggling a little bit ... and on that turf .... I tell you what that's going to be a tough task"

You get the grim details out of the way then you dig deep, play hurt, and play mean - it's always amazing what you can do when you decide your going down hard no matter what. Game face time.Bella*chick said:Glad I missed it. Not saying they're not valid points, but I don't really want to hear them right before Christmas.
He talked about how tough the Bengals played the Pats last season, and he 'implied' the Mannings are still the prissy boys from last season. His view was that our young secondary is still a liability, remember what that gauntlet did for them last year, now we need to see which DB is going to step up and show the Rodney genes.SoonerPatriot said:If he's predicting the Bengals will win it all, then the Colts must not really be that much different. In fact, it means they've regressed since the Bengals are no where near as good as the Pats were in 2003 and 2004....at least by the logic he is using. Maybe one too many blows to the head for Ted.
Concur, I don't see Ted's assessment as inaccurate or the end of the world, it's what the team leaders do to prepare the youngsters for a brutal slugfest. Look at how we tried to comeback against KC and Denver, the tools are there, we just need people to play smart from the first kick to the last whistle. Game face people.BelichickFan said:Well, TJ obviously knows more than me.
But if the front seven can stop the run we shouldn't be much weaker in coverage than last year. I like Hobbs as much (actually more) than Gay. Wilson and Samuel are still there. And if Hawkins need to do nothing more than worry about the pass (based on my premise that the front seven can stop the run), he should be as good, or better, in coverage as Harrison.
Not to mention that I think we can outscore the Colts, or score with them anyway, if necessary.
