Monday

Perception has such a great influence on our plays....Would you feel more comfortable taking the Colts at -6 than -3? At times, I will admit so. But how can the oddsmakers make the Colts -6 when they have only two healthy, experienced WR's in Wayne and Clark? As well, they've been suspect against the run and now have to face the wildcat with White along with Williams and Brown. The Colts secondary is banged up and the Dolphins have a lot of speed with Bess and Ginn. This game is also a sellout for primetime which imo, is significant since the Miami fanbase routinely lacks support at live events. So why am I taking Indy? Peyton Manning has the ability to make rookies look like Jerry Rice.....Colts O line vs Miami D line....Addai and Brown will have room to run.....Miami LB's will have a tough time covering Clark in the same fashion as last week against Gonzales.....Indy's run D showed that they could contain the run last week against Jax.

We have two good game managers at QB with Manning and Pennington....both offenses balanced. Bottom line is that Indy's offense is better than Miami's D....both teams will get a share of visits in the redzone but Peyton will score td's against this young inexperienced secondary.

Why can't the Colts run on Miami?

I appreciate the info Frank..thanks for the post. Addai hasn't had a lot of 100 yd games because he's usually running out of 3-4 receiver sets. Also, the Colts didn't have a reliable 2nd back last year so he wasn't fresh in the later part of the year. With Donald Brown taking some carries, I expect the tandem to be effective running in two tight end sets. I also expect to see a lot of pulling guards to utilize the speed to the outside. Miami does have a solid defensive interior on the front but Brown and Addai have the speed to take the rock to the outside.
