Not really. Considering we'd have to play each other in the Wild Card round i doubt we could play each other again the week later.

Feel free to make the playoffs - if the Rams make it and get Tampa Bay then I'd fancy our chances a lot more than against all of the other NFC teams




I've somehow made the final of the RLFans fantasy league. Despite having the worst of my three fantasy teams (although my other teams lost in the semis and the final of the playoffs) I've managed to squeeze in by chopping and changing my QB almost every week with such brilliant players as Vince Young, Brett Favre, Matt Hasselbeck, Kerry Collins and Tim Tebow. I also did it with one running back all season, having to play the likes of Clinton 'always injured' Portis, Donald Brown, Javarris James and other no-namers. Should be interesting to see if I can get some luck in the final

I made the final despite playing only 8 players last week.

Try not choking and you'd already be there

The one thing about the Bears game is the fact that Lovie knows the Bears fans would love to win the game and knock the Packers out of the playoffs so I can see him playing the 1st teamers longer than if we were playing any other team in the league.

I'm not suprised we've only got defensive players in the pro bowl team.The best bit of the pro bowl will be that at least the AFC will kick the ball to Hester.I think it's a travesty that P Manning got into the pro bowl team inplace of Cassell.Cassell has hardly turned the ball over all season while Manning couldn't stop throwing ints a couple of weeks ago.i doubt all 3 of Manning,Rivers and Brady will end up playing anyway so Cassell should be next in line for an invite when one of the three drops out.

I thought Cassel deserved a spot too but Brady will not play whether we get into the superbowl or not so if he is next on the list he will be in.

The fact that Revis and Asawhateverhescalled got picked just shows how much of a pointless popularity game it is anyway and once you get in your name is always one of the ones on peoples minds and unless someone does something spectacular your more or less a shoe in, I dont think Brandon Merriweather should be in either, he wasn`t even our best safety this year never mind the AFC`s IMO James Sanders and Patrick Chung have been better but again he was in last year so he was already halfway there.

Rant over

Interesting note from Twitter earlier in the day...

Jim Irsay (Colts Owner) tweeted that "The Colts will be ballin in the UK sooner than you think"

Could we be next up for an away game for the International Series?!

If you want to see the Colts in the UK, just come watch Staffs.

We're just like the Colts...


Except in every possible way...



Apart from the logo...




Ours is red though...

I really hope so, had to put up with seeing the Patriots live so fairs fair, lets see Peyton in London!

There is no doubt you guys are going to go 100%. That would be the case whether you could improve your position or not. We are obviously desperate to win but also get some redemption for the last time we played.

beat good teams though. With your schedule we'd be laughing. We play in one of the toughest divisions in football and have one the hardest schedules this year. We did throw it away though.

What happened to Ian 77 Redux`s post about St Conroy?

Poor Jaguars - no QB

It's a shame they've moved the Jags game to the same time as ours, I really wanted to see Curtis Painter and company!

I'm only guessing as the handicap line has moved from Houston +1 to Houston -3 in one go and I know he was a doubt

Don't worry, the Texans will still find a way to lose the game.

Is anyone watching the Pinstipe bowl between Syracuse and Kansas State?

Hunt down a stream, it's one of the best games I've seen in ages!

Its on ESPN America I haven`t watched it but I am going to try to watch the North Carolina/Tennessee game after.

I dont really watch college football because I find it boring, but I may aswell make use of having ESPN on seeing as theres only crap darts on Sky Sports

33-28 at the minute, 5 consecutive drives went for highlight reel touchdowns at the start of the second half. Awesome to watch!

It wont last cos I'm about to put it on, It`s a certain game killer

15 yard penalty on extra point try? What a load of sjit college football is



And I thought the NFL celebration rules were stupid

Imagine playing all those weeks to lose a bowl game because of a call like that! Disgraceful!

Early on we were poor yes. But after those early big losses to the Steelers and the Saints no one has stuffed us. We should have beaten Atlanta twice, (especially in the Georgia Dome. We threw the ball deep in the last 2 mins and Williams, I think, was pulled back on the 6 yard line. They then spotted the ball on the 11 yard line and we came up 6 inches short of the win). We were in the game all the way with Baltimore and was very unlucky with a PI call just before the half that gave them 40 yards and put them on our 1 yard line. They then went 2 scores up (ask West Cumbrian Rhino how bad the call was). We lost to Detroit a couple of weeks back yes, but again, Winslow scored a TD with about 2 mins left which was called back for OPI (The league has since said the call was wrong and it should have been a TD) we had to settle for the FG and they drove down field and took it into OT where they had 1st posession.

Now im not moaning about the refs. Everyone gets dud calls. Im just saying we were in all the games and could/should have been in the play offs now. This, as wel,l with the youngest team in the league and a whole bunch of starters on IR. We have played 22 rookies this season. Can anyone else say that?

Look out for us next season.

Oh, and the whole "weak schedule" crap is stupid. The Cheifs have had a weaker schedule than us and no one is banging on about them. Everyone knows that they rotate it and some years its not as hard as others. ATEOTD though we matched the top team in the NFC twice now and beaten a few decent teams.

Remember we were 3-13 last year and there were 29 teams better than us.

Amazing end to the Music City bowl there! Scenes of pandemonium at the end of normal time!

Tennessee might have themselves a new Peyton Manning there with Taylor Bray, he looks awesome for a true freshman despite the picks!

Which decent teams?
