I’m telling you. I never crush a guy to crush him. Bob is dead on today. Great job by him.
If the Colts’ defenders aren’t careful, they’re going to blow their cover as the guys who carry Manning’s bags. Guess which NFL team has allowed the fewest points? That’s right, Indianapolis. The team whose defense always has seemed merely incidental to the offense is now the best in the league.
Better than the Ravens, better than everybody.
And we thought they existed solely to let Manning and the offense take an occasional rest.
“Everybody knows that historically, this has been an offense-first team, and the offense is still great,” Freeney said. “But we’ve shown we can win with defense. We can win games like this. We’ve been doing it for a while, but once you get a certain reputation, it’s hard to break it.”
So, we will hear the question now, what’s wrong with the offense? They’ve scored 18, 20, 35 and 17 points the past four weeks. Manning has thrown four interceptions in two weeks. Call the National Guard. Call somebody.
