One and Done! Their pathetic run defense will do them in quickly in the playoffs. You would think Tony Dungy would have tried to fix that problem.

Not far. It is beyond me why this team is always so overrated in the first half of every season, only to be re-evaluated late in the season. Having the worst or one of the worst rush defenses in the NFL is not the recipe for success in the NFL. The Bengals game coming up could be very important for the Colts as if would be loss number 4 out of the last 5 games. Manning is statistically a great QB, but stats don't win championships. This team chokes every year, and this year it is happening a little earlier than last year. Do not expect to see this team in the Super Bowl during the Peyton Manning era. They need a new defensive coordinator and several drafts devoted to shoring up a pathetic defense that is the laughing stock of the AFC if not all the NFL. I could see them winning their first playoff game at home, but probably not more than that first one maybe. If they give up 375 yards rushing like they did yesterday against the Jaguars, this team will go home early in the playoffs again.

One game. The Colts never win more than that in the playoffs. I have hopes for New England but I am not so sure anymore.

They will be beaten soundly in their 1st game.
That's because everybody who knows football except the people who run the Colts know that football in January is about running the ball and stopping the run.
Their lack of enthusiasm for tackling yesterday makes you wonder how they ever won games in the first place.

I don't see them winning more than a game. They would have to face teams such as New England, Denver, Baltimore, and San Diego. Any of those teams would give them a tough game, especially San Diego. Also, they have not done anything this season that would make them any better in the playoffs.

one and done like that dude said. every playoff team in the AFC can run the ball so it doesnt matter who they play. giving up 375 on just the run thats pathetic. just cause Sanders is out doesnt mean hes gonna stop the run offense all by himself. they need to start trading their offensive weapons and get some defense on that team. it'll be a shame if Manning doesnt win one, just like Marino
