what a shootout in cincy today

[bigboydan]

WOW.... 35-28 at the half. thats the most scored cincy has put up in one half of play in the history of the team. needless to say i was shocked to hear the announcers say that. i thought the 28 points was the most they scored in the entire decade of the 1990's

[Razz]

Does anyone still think Indy has a good defense? I've been trying to tell everyone that once they hit the meat of their schedule they would start giving up points by the barrel, and here they come.

That was 1 game...so what? Maybe Cin offense was just good?
You know it happens

Sorry about it, but 3 td's and 2 fg's allowed in one half is a joke. Their defense was exposed this week.

No matter what the Colts D gave up today, they are still much approved then previous years. The Bengals Offense isnt to bad itself. So we will see how the Colts D ranks at the end of the regular season.

Im no football fan so maybe i dont know better...but is the defense responsible for a 40 yard field goal?

I think the Broncos are the best team in the AFC right now

Wow thats a bold statement. Can you explain why you feel that?

I'd back them on a neutral site over the Colts. And look at the opponents both teams have beaten. The Broncos' wins have been far more impressive, IMHO. They have been rolling after the opening weak defeat at Miami and dominated the Giants and only lost because of a 4th quarter meltdown.

if only the prick would have lost this one...

Well I thought for sure he was going to lose his Tampa bet. Falcons blew that one.

I agree with Owned and the Broncos being the best team in the AFC. They have the balance needed to win championships. The Colts will have the home field advantage throughout the Playoffs, which is huge for them. I'm going to leave this one up to the Colts to prove to me that you can win a championship on Offense alone

[Quarm]

you guys are too fast in judging teams imo...
Colts defense: 7, 3, 6, 10, 3, 28, 20, 21, 17, 37 = 152
Broncos: 34, 17, 10, 7, 19, 20, 24, 21, 17, 0 = 169

Broncos defense any better?

Look at their opponents. Indy's had a cupcake schedule.

[clonecat]

In my opinion, the Broncos D has faced much tougher competition than the Colts D.

Everyone....how about those Steelers? Lets not forget about those cats. I think its fairly obvious that, after yesterday, you can definitely run on the Colts. As far as the Broncos are concerned, I'd say if the Steelers stopped the run on them, I'd take Pittsburgh's D over Jake Plummer any day of the week. Yes, they lost to the Ravens yesterday but once they get Rothleisberger back, they are once again one of the elite in the AFC. I'll take the Steelers as the best AFC team.

That's why I said "right now".

With that said, it would be no shock to me if Dallas beats the Broncos on Thanksgiving Day. Bad spot for Denver.
