Dave you need to update your profile picture on your site......smile. Look happy :thumbsup:

I'll take our secondary against theirs, dave - Bullitt and Bethea are good safeties and our corners, though just rookies, have played pretty well the entire season (fuck you Tim Jennings).

Im just wondering did you watch on saints games besides the vikings game?

 

[Archer]

Meh... I may just edge with the Saints on that one but it's close

Powers is great in coverage when he plays, Lacey is solid, Heyden is decent and Bethea played at a pro bowl level this year. Bullit is also solid

The Saints have a nice secondary too when everybody is 100%

ESPN just said Freeney is starting tomorrow

Well hopefully they try to cut his ass the first play. That ankle might be the biggest smokescreen in superbowl history.

ESPN doesn't know anything. They just feel like stirring the pot.

Yeah that's why I didn't get too excited

He probably will start but be on a limited play count though

I know this is the biggest game of the year, but he may end up hurting his team more than helping with insisting on playing. I don't know but is a 50% Freeney better than Brock?

50% Freeney is better than Dawson or Foster at end . Brock is probably better but then our rotation would be a bit thin

They should just let him play on third downs if he can manage it

Yes. I watch whatever games I can. I saw a few Saints games this year.

I'm an IU fan, Tracy Porter is a good guy. Met him a few times through a girl.

I know you guys have a good secondary, but I think ours is underrated.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Dwight Freeney will play in the Super Bowl barring any setbacks in pregame warm-ups.
Freeney will test the ankle before the game for the first time in two weeks. It seems likely that he'll suit up, but the Colts' best pass rusher will be limited to a third-down role in obvious passing situations. Reliable veteran Raheem Brock will play the majority of the snaps.

Alright I was just curious. Yeah porter and greer are great together but it seems like when one goes down the other starts slacking. Ive only seen a couple colts games but it seems like bullit and beathea make up for you guys CB.

 

[FirstTimer]

if the Saints do win, it might be the equivalent of the 69 Mets.

No. Just No. Awful comparison.

 

[KNUBB]

This Dwight Freeney thing is getting old. Dude didn't practice all week and expects tomorrow to be any different than the rest of the week with full speed and contact.

:jimshake:

Don't be so naive

So, Slow and half assed then right?

He played like somebody who deserved to get into a pro bowl team if the voting wasn't completely fucked up [he did get in through the fans too]

 

[brees fan]

just a joke, I know what you meant...

Just a warning

The Colts quite often hold players out and play games with the media . All you know is one thing, whatever the Colts are telling you about his injury isin't the full truth.

I don't think he will do alot other than maybe add a little pressure on third down

EXAMPLE - Powers had a broken bone in his foot and had surgery on it after the Baltimore game . The Colts held him out of practice with a "foot injury" and had him questionable all week for the Jets game. Only this week did the broken bone story come out
