I guess you didn't notice that Cutler is the most sacked QB in the league and he did what to the Jets defense again? Let me not mention Brady! How many interceptions did Revis have this year? My bad, he was hurt after Moss scored over him. How good is your defensive line have this year? I think they are one of the worse in the NFL this year. Sanchez??? Really? 17 TD's with 13 int's and a 75 passer rating...Your QB is ranked 28 out of 32 qb's... Your team doesn't have a back who has 1000 yards either... Your offense is not good and your defense is good. With your supposedly great corners your team is comparable to the Colts with defensive interceptions. The Colts give up 37 more rushing yards per game than the Jets defensively and when we play the Jets...we will have played the 5 best rushing teams in the NFL this season. I am not implying the JETS can not win this game... I think your inept QB and your over rated DB's, not to mention your teams lack of a pass rush will keep the Colts in the game.
I feel bad for you. You think you know what you are talking about. That 1000 yard rusher and Revis 0 INT thing was hilarious. Learn about other people's teams, and then post.
Stats don't always tell the full picture, not every team in the league has two RB's that get just about an equal number of carries for as many yards as LT and Greene, on having the added Wildcat with Brad Smith. As far as corners, I don't know where to find thrown-to stats but Revis has hardly been targeted the whole season. On top of missing training camp, two games, and having a bothersome hamstring he's still a shut-down corner, despite the lack of stats. Cromartie has played fairly solid and the rest of our secondary is not too shabby, but we have trouble with coverage linebackers which screws us even more as our D-line hasn't been up to par as of late. With Sanchez his stats undermine him a little bit, he is by no means an elite QB but should be ranked higher than the statistical 28/32. Overall I do agree that the Colts can stay with this game, especially if Manning abuses the short, jet-killer throws to his TE's and slot receivers. Luckily ( for the jets ) Clark and Collie's injuries will hamper that strategy, but Manning is Manning and can work magic with just about anyone. It'll be a good one, I'm dreading it less than last season's match-up.
We are healthy. Last year the two injuries that lost us that game were Donald Strickland and in the second half, Shonn Greene.
what an idiot. He thinks our DL is one of the worst in the league. Maybe worse than the TWO defenses who rank above us against the run, but that's about it. Personally, I'm worried that Schotty's going to see their banged up secondary and try to throw all game, never setting up the run, allowing Freeney and MAthis to tee off on Dirty. I'm also worried that we won't be able to get a push on D right up the middle without using LBs, thus making us vulnerable to RBs in the pass patterns, but I sure as hell ain't worried about Revis - though I will say that Wayne was pretty close to breaking a couple on him last year.
The Colts are playing much better run defense the last three games. They have shut down Jones-Drew, McFadden and Johnson, so this does indicate a trend towards improvement. The Colts have also done a better job of rushing the ball. While they can't be mistaken for a top tier rushing team, it has improved enough that teams now have to respect the play fake again.
Tell me who is the 1000 yard rusher on your team then? Also, Revis stats this year says he is better than how many corners again?
Nobody throws Revis' way....he doesn't pile up stats because opposing QBs fear him....to me, that's a testament to how great a CB Revis is.
I agree, stats don't tell everything and I think this will be a good game. If the Jets are running the ball effectively, the Colts will be in trouble...but if the game is in Sanchez hands, I think the Colts will be having their way with the Jets. LT never had good games against the Colts when he was with the Chargers so, I don't think that will start now...Cromartie usually plays well against Peyton though. I didn't notice last year that Revis was a difference maker in any of the Jets games vs the Colts. Wayne is a quick physical player that matches up well against Revis. I think the Jets are a better team than the Colts this year, but anything can happen when you are at home.
Jones-Drew was also shut down by the Redskins a week later, but the Colts did a great job against McFadden and the Oakland rushing game. What do you think accounts for the improvement in the Colts run defense? They went from giving up 120+ yards a game on average to just 55 yards in the last 3 games. There has to be something more to it than they're simply "playing better".
Are you really this dense or are you just a troll? Revis has only allowed 22 completions all year giving up less than 40% completion rate when thrown at. That's in straight man coverage against the best receivers. The Jets have rushed for nearly 2400 yards as a team. Only 3 teams have more combined rushing yards. I guess our run game is terrible because none of our backs compiled 1000 yards individually.
My exact response- lol We all know short, quick passes is a sure fire way to get our QB sacked. lol How the hell do Colts fans think Peyton has stayed healthy? HIs friggin quick release.
Jones-Drew was hurt. McFadden and Chris Johnson are more outside, speed backs and the speed of the Colts D matches up well against them. We will run right down there throats and probably have at least decent success.
Last year the Colts posters were much better if I remember correctly. I think most of the real fans know this is much different from last year and decided to stay away. They're bringing up some pointless, stupid shit.
Your D Line is deplorable giving up 3rd downs...they lack a pass rush and your stats were padded against bad teams you played against. When Sanchez played the better teams his stats were bad. Your team beat Pitt and NE and pulled out close games against lesser teams...if the teams were in your division I could expect a close game..but a losing team and to struggle. In no way do I think the Jets can not win this game and I understand why jet fans would feel good about this game. But, for Jet fans to feel that they are clear favorites in this game is unrealistic. The Vegas odd makers are basically calling this game a pick em.
Jones-Drew didn't play against the Red skins...So it was easy for them to shut him down...it's called IR. So, what were you saying about the Colts run defense again? The last 4 games the Colts played the better rushing teams in the NFL and they did an excellent job against them all... I am not saying the Jets won't run the ball, but I don't think they will be able to run the ball enough to win the game. Sanchez will have to make plays passing the ball... and lets not forget what Cutler, Brady and Schaub did against your pass defense
