I thought last night was an object lesson in patience and staying true to your gameplan from the Jets and the pressure on both offence and defence paid off in the long run. Can't see them changing the approach for the Colts as its got us this far and the Colts run defence isnt hugely impressive (statistically at least) but it did keep the Ravens very quiet this weekend. I would safely predict that the Colts will not be anywhere near as ill-disciplined as the Chargers were last night too!

I think the colts D are a very underestimated bunch. They seem to have a knack of producing when it matters. I think Manning will handle the Jets blitz well next week. He seems to do well against blitzing teams because it leaves his receivers in one on one situations. I could be wrong but i think the jets in Indianapolis are a good match up for the Colts personally.

If we can keep a better handle on Dallas Clark than we did on Antonio Gates in the 1st half yesterday then I think the rest of the Colts receivers could be up against it.

Its vastly better than the run defence the Colts had when they won the thing! And keeping the Ravens touchdownless (if thats a word) is easy

It'll be far from a walkover (Conference title games never are) but I can't see Manning making the same errors Rivers did.

Still, Ryan saying the Jets are good for the Super Bowl, everyone mocked.......

To be fair to the big man he said after we got beat by the Falcons that this squad of players is good enough to win a superbowl, I don't think he expected it to be this one though from the position we were in then!! He does makes good copy though and he's certainly caused a stir in his first year in the Big Apple and seems to have everyone onside and pulling in the right direction...I don't know how to cope with it having a real-life challenging team for once!!

It'd be karmic justice if the Jets beat Indy again after them only getting into the play-offs because Indy played dead that week.

Defence and great ground attack, the recipe for success in New York(although we kinda went to the air this year)

The Jets in the AFC title game just goes to show again that a turd can be polished once in a while

I am hoping whoever wins the NFC title game wins the SB now, my 2 most hated teams in the AFC game

Re: NFL Chat 2 : Mon Jan 18, 2010 1:30 pm  

Such sad news about Gaines Adams he had great potential IMO and such a young age to go

If Ed Reed retires it will be a travesty he is without doubt one of the best players in the league and one of the very few I would pay to see

Why would I be jealous?

From last year when IMO they were terrible to watch and even at the beginning of this year the fact that they have made it to the NFC title game suprises me, whats so wrong with that?

They deserve to be where they are because of the hard work they put in towards the end of the season already Indy and the Bungals playing half a team helped
