Greg Doyle says the Colts are locked in
When I asked Manning if he had any idea what was going on in the Saints-Redskins game — the choking Redskins had just missed the clinching field goal from 23 yards! — he smiled and shook his head and made a joke about the darned football game he had just played getting in the way of his ability to keep up with the Saints’ score. After the giggling stopped, Manning turned serious.
“Do I care [about the Saints]? I care about the Colts,” he said. “Certainly the Saints are having a great year. It’s great for the city. It’s great for football.”
But other than that, Manning doesn’t care. The Colts don’t care. They’re so locked onto the minute details of their own week, they were still obsessing about one missed goal Sunday even after winning: They’d wanted to hold Titans running back Chris Johnson — who had tied the NFL record with six straight games with more than 125 rushing yards — to less than 100.
