    Why don't the Colts

    Keep Manning on the active roster and have him stand in the backfield with Painter, have him read the field and tell Painter what to do, then run 15 yards behind the backfield every play? It'd basically be 10 on 11, but it couldn't be much worse?

    The Colts this year may be the worst team ever, their offense is pathetic of course but its their defense that is truly nonexistent, I mean fukin teams just go up and down the field at will

    Heh, I don't even know who Bill Simmons is. Sounds like he had this idea first tho...

    Didnt simmons suggest manning actually play though, take only shotgun snaps and if theres any chance of a rusher getting him just throw the ball away
