Other than a terrific article (seriously, read this one, it&#8217;s funny) <a href=\"http:\/\/cbs.sportsline.com\/nfl\/story\/10381701\">by Gregg Doyle<\/a>, there was precious little mention of the Colts around the web today. I don&#8217;t blame anyone actually, our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.18to88.com\/Articles\/18thingsbroncos4.html\">Eyes in the Backfield<\/a> on Friday virtually predicted this game exactly. It was sort of a no <span class=\"blsp-spelling-corrected\"><span class=\"blsp-spelling-error\">brainer<\/span><\/span>.
