Last time I checked, most NFL coaches don't bench a starter after going 3-1. They also don't usually consider a qb struggling if he has his team at 3-1...efficient, "not-losing", uninspired...these phrases all come to mind if a team is winning despite the qb position play, but not "struggling." My name isn't King though, so WTF do I know.

I remember a coach by the name of Norv Turner back in the 2000 season that pulled Brad Johnson after 8 games with a 6/2 record (w,l,l,w,w,w), and put in Jeff George to only win 1 out of the next 4 (or 5?)

I never understood that move.

We will beat Indy. Theres a small talent discrepancy in our favor, and I believe that our defensive coaches can confuse Peyton ever so slightly.

pressure on manning is the key, gtripp. look how the steelers made out by getting to manning. i think we beat indy, too

I can't wait for this game. I'm really looking forward to it. I think G-Dub is as well. You know he's going to come with the thunder for this game.
