Via Kuharsky, NFL.com looks at the game
Being 8-0 and in such control of the AFC South is so matter of fact for the Colts that the only real benefit the majority of players recognize about their perch is that it gives them a cushion should they struggle through a pending gauntlet of New England, Baltimore, Houston, Tennessee and Denver over the next five weeks.
So seasoned to winning, victories are considered breathing room in these parts, not accomplishments.
“We’ve been in this situation before,” running back Joseph Addai said. “We think about how to handle situations; not so much about going out and winning games but how to win games. In tight games, how to put those games away. We’ve been in those situations before. The young guys watch the older guys do it and they pick up on it. The players take it upon themselves. At this level, most people think individual, but not here. Regardless of who we have as the coach or who we have on the field, we want to go out and perform.”
