I'm starting to get that same feeling I had before the Panthers playoff game last year. There was no doubt what so ever with me that the Cards would win that one, and I am thinking that the Cards win this one in a blowout.

Three reasons why
1) If the Cards are not the #1 run D they are near the top.
2) Two weeks in a row now that the D got good penetration in the backfield.
3) The Cards runn game is much improved from last year
4) With Gonzolez out, the Cards really have to worry about 1 WR, and a TE.
5) Colts D sucks

Cards win 31-17

Also, keep in mind....The Colts will be coming off a "short week", and have to travel West....may help our chances.

My very first post and thought about the Colts game is that we are gonna need some speed in the defensive backfield and DRC is our fastest guy for sure and he needs to get back to the level he was playing at in the playoffs.He has'nt gotten back to that yet and it worries me.

DRC better be studying his arse off all week and not give the cushion he's been giving and counting on his ALL WORLD comeback speed to make up the difference.McFadden needs to teach him that move he used on Torry Holt yesterday with the arm smash to make sure the guy has to catch the ball with one hand at least.

Glad its gonna be roof closed and hopefully cooler for the players in the secondary.The fourth quarter we don't need anyone dragging because thats when Manning is at his best and has studied our whole game plan against him.Wish we could save some twist just for the 4th quarter but that will get me laughed outta here for just thinking it.

I just remember the Washington game last year when thier 'H' back ate our lunch all game long and we don't cover tight ends well at all.Thats now Mannings bread and butter with Marvin gone and now Gonzalez.I know he still has his speedster too and the rookie from UConn out of the backfield will be a tester too.

Its gonna come down to pressure and who we attack to get to Manning the quickest.Hands up all game long.CROWD MUST BE INSANE ALL GAME LONG!!!:D
