I was really shocked how all week it seemed everyone in the media was all over the Colts' jock. It was almost like everyone was overlooking the defending champs, a team that's won 2 of the last 3 Super Bowls, and a QB in Brady who is undefeated in postseason play.
I wasn't at all surprised how the Pats locked down Manning and the Colts. Gotta give the Patriots credit, they just know how to win games in January. I won't be surprised if they win it all again.

I won't either... but I'm tired of seeing them there. LOL
The only team I want to repeat EVER is the Redskins.
Yeah I'm tired of the Pats too, but you have to admire the way they play football in January. Dillon was a huge pickup for them, he gives them a whole different dimension.

Oh I definitely do...
It's the whole "me envying them" is what I have a problem with. ;)

How come no one's talking about Jermiah f...g Trotter? The guy's an animal, and plays for them like he never played for us. Maybe Marv Lewis and George Edwards didn't know how to use him....its a shame.
He came here for the money, pure and simple, and he was never a team player for us. This is why, I'm glad Gibbs let him go. Now, we've discovered Pierce who plays at the same position, and there was no way, had we retained Trotter, that we could've managed to keep both him and Pierce.

Trotter is also finally healthy. It was just our luck that most of the time he was here he had a busted knee

it's early but moss has been a nonfactor. cullpepper looks confused
Speaking of non-factor, I know the Eagles have a decent O-line, but aren't you guys glad we didn't trade down last year and draft Kenechi Udeze? He couldn't pressure Mcnabb once - hell, he couldn't even pressure Ramsey.
I've begun to get a li'l skeptical of the Erasmus James', Dan Codys and David Pollacks that are slated to be 1st rounders this year. Maybe we are better trying to pursue a Shaun Ellis type of guy, and drafting a receiver.
