Holy Trap Game Batman!!: Colts Squeak By 18-14
Posted on 3 Nov 2009 by Andrew Gifford.
Before I get to the game, my apologies for being an idiot. The Colts are not playing the New England Patriots this week as I alluded to in my preview column. The Colts are playing the Houston Texans this Sunday, and playing the Patriots in two weeks. This was a kind of a big flub on my part seeing that I based my “It's A Trap!” theory around the Colts looking past the 49ers and...

Colts vs. Niners Preview
Posted on 29 Oct 2009 by Andrew Gifford.
This Sunday the San Francisco 49ers (3-3) will travel into Lucas Oil Stadium to take on the undefeated Indianapolis Colts (6-0). A lot of people will probably look at this matchup and think nothing of it, but everybody please be aware, this matchup has trap game written all over it. I believe that the following elements need to be present in order for a trap game to occur: 3. 85 to 95 p...

Colts Crush the Rams 42-6
Posted on 26 Oct 2009 by Andrew Gifford.
What I said in the preview about the St. Louis Rams not having a “Puncher's Chance” to beat the Colts due to them not having any arms was definitely proven true on Sunday. The Indianapolis Colts went into the Edward Jones Dome and put a complete beatdown on the Rams 42-6. Peyton Manning in a very workman like performance went 23/34, for 235 yards and 3 TD's (one to Reggie ...

Colts Chatter: Colts vs. Rams Preview
Posted on 24 Oct 2009 by Andrew Gifford.
When I think of this weekend's matchup between the Indianapolis Colts (5-0) and St. Louis Rams (0-6), the boxing term “Puncher's Chance” comes to mind. “Puncher's Chance” is used when one fighter is significantly better than the other, and the only chance the weaker fighter has to win is if he connects with a lucky punch and knocks out the highly skilled f...

Preseason: Colts vs Vikings + Thoughts
Posted on 17 Aug 2009 by Mike Crupi.
A very brief look at what was an uneventful first pre-season game against the Vikings. The NFL preseason is off to a roaring start. An exception to this rule apparently was the preseason game between the Colts and the Vikings which was somewhat of a snoozer at 13-3 for Minnesota. Lucas Oil Stadium did not get a fitting opening as the Colts’ offence was virtually non-existant throughout t...

Pondering the Future
Posted on 23 Jul 2009 by Mike Crupi.
What does the immediate and distant future hold for a Colts team that has been near the top for so long? In the sports world, it is sometimes very easy to get comfortable in the way we view a team. We have a pre-conceived notion of teams and perhaps those are some of the reasons why every year the ‘prognosticators’ will usually pick the same two finalists of their respe...

Colts Draft Recap
Posted on 28 Apr 2009 by Mike Crupi.
Quick look at the Colts selections from the first two days of the NFL draft. The draft for the Colts started off with somewhat of a surprise in the first round but rounded off with many of the Colts needs being addressed with the 7 picks that followed. At first I was surprised with the selection of RB Donald Brown from UConn; however, the pick did make a lot of sense upon further...

A quick look at the Colts draft outlook, the positions that need to be filled and my choice for the Colts first round pick. In pro sports we see it time and time again: How do you build a consistently great team? The answer continues to be without a doubt: Drafting properly!! The NFL is possibly the only sport that you can find a great player in any round of the draft. With so many...
