Hey Hey Hey - we're getting close to the end of regular season and playoff time.
Last week I went 12 -4 making me 130/208 for 62% right so far this season.
COLTS @ Jacksonville - Lots of questions surrounding this game this week. Will they, can they, maybe, wait and see, etc. The Colts with their win over Denver cliched home field advantage for all playoff games, which is good. They also have a bye the first week of playoffs, which might be good or might be bad depending on how and who plays these next 3 games.
The reason I say that is because Dungy was a firm believer in resting players at the end of season games and most of the time they would end up losing during playoffs while teams that fought the whole season through were more playoff ready. I call it 'getting out of sinc' - any sport and especially ones where there is alot of physical activity like football, mountain biking (my field), skiing, etc. and you sit for extended periods of time not doing and it does not take long to get out of sinc, having to regroup and regain momentum.
So far all that I have read Caldwell will not be letting up, as by these statements:
"We're going to approach the 14th game exactly like we did one through 13. We're going to prepare just like we did for the first 13 and we're going to play just like we did the first 13," Caldwell said. "The only thing that would deter anyone from playing is a health issue.
"We're not going to assign numbers, in terms of plays, for anybody. We didn't do that for the first 13 games, and we're not going to do it for No. 14, either."
So time will tell and we will see how true to his word Caldwell will be come tomorrow night. But I think in the back of the Colts mind there is no doubt that they would love to surpass what the Patriots achieved in 2007 by going 16-0, then sweeping through the playoffs and actually winning the championship.
