Ty Warren was worn down pretty well too. That last Addai td was because of a worn down line, but I'm not sure if he or Wright was in.
The Pats are gonna be all over the Colts. winning by at least 14.
With the guys we had missing in the second half of the game....it's a wonder how we gave up all those points and lost.
I smell blow out Sunday.
Wright was OUT for that game, which only contributed to the wearing down part even more.
One thing I will always wonder about that game? Did the Pats players think the game was in the bag before they were taken out of the game? Would they have sucked it up and played through illness-injuries had they known the outcome of the game?
if wright was out for the game how did he record a tackle?

Without a doubt Colvin was the biggest loss in my mind. He was the one covering Dallas Clark in the first half. Thus he was the only LB with the speed to cover him.
Kevin Faulk was a having a great game up to the point he left the game. He was running effectively.
With the addition of AD I see us having a happy Sunday.

Ya, know, it's amazing how the Pats have persevered through their injuries. How do they do it? It's so heroic. Against all odds, the Pats keep on chugging.
I mean, gosh, how come the rest of the NFL is so lucky not to ever have injuries. You should bring that up at the next league meeting. Tell them you don't think it's fair that only the Pats ever have injured players.
I just feel so sorry for you Pats fans, what with always having to fight through that stuff. You'd probably win every game against every team every time if it wasn't for those darn injuries. It must be tough playing hurt all the time against teams that are always 100% injury free.
It's funny though, I've heard other teams, even my Colts have injuries and illness from time to time. Is there any truth to that? I mean, I thought only the Pats ever had to deal with missing players or hurt players?

Vrabel played OLB that game. Eric Alexander started at ILB in his spot and was picked on; Go look at the gamebook and you'll see Alexander lead the team with 10 tackles, but the play-by-play shows they're all of the "3rd-and-8: P.Manning to D.Clark for 12 yards (E.Alexander)" variety.
Colvin had a great first half, then got banged up and missed most of the 2nd half. TBC filled in and had a rough game.
Seymour started the game, but was already hobbled from the San Diego game and got dinged up the very first Colts' offensive snap. He played most of the game, but was a shell of his normal self.
As noted, Wilson and Harrison were out at safety. I believe Hawkins went down in the 2nd half (maybe it was Sanders - I forget), so Chad Scott saw some action at safety. Ray Mickens played quite a bit of nickel; I'd prefer Randall Gay myself.
Let's not forget what happened on offense...the top THREE running backs went down. Dillon, Maroney and Faulk were all out of the game by the 4th quarter, leaving Heath Evans to carry the load.

Chris

Chad jackson went out with an ACL on O also
S Rodney Harrison (knee) -- doubtful
WR Troy Brown (flu) -- questionable
OT Ryan O'Callaghan (flu) -- questionable
DL Mike Wright (flu) -- questionable
QB Tom Brady (right shoulder) -- probable
Harrison is an upgrade, as he was listed as out last week. Doubtful is defined as at least a 75 percent chance he will not play.
Harrison, Brown, O'Callaghan and Wright were reported to have missed at least a portion of team drills.
Players no longer on the report include WR Bam Childress (ankle), FB Heath Evans (shin) and TE Benjamin Watson (knee), all of whom were questionable last week.
Also, CB Ellis Hobbs (wrist), DL Richard Seymour (elbow) and LB Mike Vrabel, all of whom were probable last week, are no longer on the injury report.
"At this time of year, those things can always pop up and we have a couple of them this week," he said. "We'll see where things are on Sunday. Normally, that can turn around quickly, one way or the other, in 24 hours or so. So we'll just have to see how it plays itself out."
Because it gets reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal old hearing about the injuries you guys have. Every team has them. Every team.
Why is it Pats fan is always calling out other teams fans for whining, but you guys do it constantly?
Lord, I just read an article by one of you columnists and he mentioned how "warm" it was in the Dome last year as part of the reason your guys were so "exhausted" lol. Yeah, because the Colts were in their special plastic bubbles where it's always a perfect 70 degrees. What a joke. Too warm. I thought it we were playing football. I've heard teams blame loses on ice and snow but too "warm"? Ha.
