PASS DEFENSE: A-
Yeah, Houston got it going a little bit late, but again, the Colts had a lead and were willing to surrender some yards. The bottom line is, they played one of the league’s best pass offenses off its feet, and did it without Jerraud Powers, Jacob Lacey, Bob Sanders or Melvin Bullitt. The pass rush was vintage Indy; Tony Dungy said after the game, “That’s the Colts football I remember from my time here.” As I’m writing this, Dwight Freeney is putting another spin move on Duane Brown and sacking the guy’s dog. The Colts blitzed more in that first half than in any game this year — or so it seemed. Clint Session, in particular, was a man.
