jaxfactor Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 (edited) Just wanted to get some thoughts from the Indy homers about the chances of TBay pulling the upset. I know the chances go up if Addai/Harrison don't play, but does Peyton let this happen? I picked Indy in a local survival poll and am one of 4 left for the $400. I've been wavering between Indy and Tenn but I'm now Edited October 5, 2007 by jaxfactor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHook Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 I honestly have not watched enough TB games to have a good feel for them. The Colts will be ok offensively. They still have Wayne, Clark, Gonzalez, and most importantly, Manning. On Defense, the Buccs will have a very inexperienced tackle going up against Dwight Freeney, and no Caddy. When Garcia took over for McNabb at the end of the year last year for Philly, his lone loss was against the Colts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Bucs have a very capable RBBC in Pittman and Graham. Somehow I just don't see the Colts getting beat on their home field heading into the bye week. But it is not a gimme. If anyone can figure out the cover 2(and any other D for that matter) it's Manning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyOne Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 I was going to recommend taking the Colts as I can't see the Bucs winning, but then I saw the size of the prize money and so don't want you to listen to anything I have to say!

Chief Dick Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 What are your other choices? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitman Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 (edited) No. If no Addai, no Harrison......this week, no problem. Kenton Keith can easily go for 50-70 yds and even punch one in perhaps. The Colts DEF will need to basically cover Galloway well on the short slants and watch for the deep ball. That's about it IMO. Look for Mathis or Freeney to have a nice day getting to Garcia. And if you think the Colts won't move the ball at will without Addai & Harrison, you're crazy. As mentioned, just bump up Wayne a bit, along with Clark & Gonzalez. Hell, even whoever gets more PT if Harrison is out. (Moorehead, Utech) It will come down to Peyton getting the ball to the open guy....and he always does. The Bucs just really aren't that good. The only way I'd see them beating the Colts is with Sorgi @ QB.........maybe. Edited October 6, 2007 by Hitman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosGatosEnFuegos Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Have you already used Dallas and NE? I'm leaning toward hanging my hat on Houston against the 0-4 Fins this week in my survivor pool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm leaning toward hanging my hat on Houston against the 0-4 Fins this week in my survivor pool. Yep. Teams used: Sea Pitt NEng Dal As said, was wavering between the Colts and Titans. Don't really like using teams off their bye weeks. Sometimes they come out flat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyOne Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Looks like Jax got through either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
