Nice to be 7-0 again.

However, I don't think lack of effort causes the Colts' struggles against 3-4 defenses.

I agree with you that 3-4 defenses give us a lot of trouble, but what gives us more trouble is when Peyton looses his patience and refuses to check the ball down and thinks he has to throw bombs down field all game.

And Peyton seems to do this every time the Colts play against a 3-4. With 4 LBs roaming from sideline to sideline, the short stuff doesn't always appear to be open. That's why Peyton throws deep some much against this defensive scheme.

The Colts just need to go back to the drawing board when it comes to attacking a 3-4 defense.

Agreed, also we need to run the freaking ball. Our O-line is terrible at run blocking and Addai dances too much going east and west instead of hitting the hole.

It's a shame Donald Brown got injured... he was just about to jump Addai for the No. 1 tailback position. I still think that will happen soon...

Wow.............I'm as big of a mark for Bob Sanders as there is, but this is starting to get old.

I agree. I love the guy but my goodness the guy is hurt almost all the time. At some point you just have to say you can't rely on him.

Do you still disagree with me that its time to release him?

What purpose would that serve? He's being placed on the IR... again. When he's healthy (2010), he'll play and improve the defense dramatically. If the Colts decided to release him, they would still be out the full amount of the contract.

Strongly disagree. A release is not the solution here. However, if this continues, I doubt the Colts will make any attempt to re-sign Bob after his contract is up.

I would rather pay Bullitt some more $ than pay BS 1 more dime, I know he would still be owed $ but at least we could cut ties with him now and get out of this contract with him. He is a great player but if you include this season he had played about 45 out of 96 regular season games since he has been drafted, that is under 50%.

What makes you believe he will stay healthy in 2010?

And by the way, this is not that big of a lose. The D is used to not having him play.

It would not benefit the Colts one bit to release Bob Sanders. If there's no benefit, why would they do it?

It is a big loss to lose Hagler, Jackson, and Sanders all in one week.
