<\/p>\n

Although last week’s game didn’t turn out anything like we expected<\/a>,
\nit wasn’t a total surprise given the terrible weather conditions. 
\nOddly enough, this story seemed to get underplayed as the game was
\ndiscussed during the week.  Worse than an uninspiring offensive
\nperformance, however, were the injuries the Horse suffered in the game. 
\nFortunately for the banged up hometown crew, this week features another
\nof the worst teams in the NFL.  As the Bengals roll up I-74 this week,
\nwatch for:<\/p>\n

 1. 
\nWatch them get off the field.  The Colts are dead last in the NFL in
\n3rd down defense.  They allow a first down 48.8% of the time.  The
\nthree teams immediately in front of them are Cincinnati, Oakland, and Kansas City.  Keep that stat in mind when getting your postseason hopes up.  Although, FO thinks teams that do poorly or well JUST on third down will return to normal, so who knows what is possible?  <\/span><\/p>\n

2. 
\nWatch for hope.  Bob Sanders had full participation in practice on
\nFriday and is questionable for Sunday.  Indy’s defense allow 5.1 yards
\nper play which is 12th in the league.  Solid.  If and when Bob Sanders
\nreturns he will help shore up the aforementioned third down defense.  <\/span><\/p>\n
