[Walter]

Post your thoughts here for the Saints-Colts game.

I'll comment on some of those thoughts in my running blog:

Colts favored by 6. Total is 53.5.

I'm going square with Indy and the Over.

"What was that NBC introduction? The words were the same, but this woman's voice was horrible. Last year's was so much better. I don't care that much right now, but I'll be freaking out by Week 9. Just giving you a warning. "

Agree it sucked balls

I started to picked up the Colts back-up but Addi is fine

[bills_red]

Bob Sanders is a beast

[Walter]

Indianapolis' defense is anything but LOL

[Walter]

Big third down for both teams

[bills_red]

Nice little drive so far by NO

[bills_red]

Nice play by R.Brock(sp?)

"I'm telling you... Lazer-hockey thing! It'll work! "

Never watch Hockey so you'll have to explain

[Walter]

About 10 years ago, people said it was hard to see the puck during hockey games, so FOX made the puck glow, and when it was shot or passed, it looked like a laser of some sort. It was a great idea for people who knew nothing about hockey, or those who were blind.

lol, that would be great.

[bills_red]

Walt you're a wuss, lol

[Walter]

Hahaha, I'd rather be a wuss than put stuff in my eye

[bills_red]

"Drew Brees' pass complete to Drew Brees. What if Brees did that on purpose? What if he has himself in fantasy? I think the NFL should investigate if he does that 23 times tonight."

I think you are the funniest sports guy ever!

[Walter]

Thanks,

Addai's looking great isn't he?

[bills_red]

Thanks,

He is cutting very well tonight.

[bills_red]

wow, nice play by J.David

[Walter]

David making amends for getting burnt.

[Walter]

Clean strip. Wayne should have went down. Indy could have picked up the fourth-and-one.

[Walter]

In college football, Cincinnati leads Oregon State 10-3

Check out the score.

1-0 Colts? WTF?

[Walter]

Louisville locked up in a tight one with Middle Tennessee State 38-35!!!

[bills_red]

P. Manning 3/5 17 0 0

They are a bit late...

[Walter]

Bob Sanders, c'mon!

[bills_red]

Bob Sanders, c'mon!

He is still a beast!!!!!!! You see how fast he got there, wow!

[Walter]

Wish he would have picked it off. He would have went the distance if he had.

[bills_red]

Wish he would have picked it off. He would have went the distance if he had.

Yea, but he put his head down and ran over there, when he looked up the ball was was right there. (If I remeber right) But yea he could have made the play

[Walter]

Division 1-AA teams are now eligible for the AP Poll. Great move. I wonder if App. State will be ranked.

Don't think so, I wouldn't put them in.

"The Tony Dungy story was great last year, but you can't equate that with Martin Luther King Jr. Two completely different levels. "

Agree 100%

[Mark]

Roman Harper is going to be a stud.

[Walter]

Louisville kicks a FG, 41-35

[Walter]

Yeah, Harper looks great

[Egg]

The Saint's run defense has looked pretty awful so far. Addai is averaging almost 5.8ypc.

[Walter]

Just our luck. Indy-NO goes to halftime, and the Louisville-Mid Tenn St. game gets out of hand.

I was going to mention that in my blog, but i didn't have the stats because nfl.com is lagging.

Do you have the exact numbers from Addai and Keith?

[Walter]

Colts finally clicking. Just took them a half to get clicking.

[Egg]

I was using sportsline.com (http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/gamecenter/live/NFL_20070906_NO@IND). Addai had 13 carries for 75yds, and Keith had 3 carries for 14yds at the half.

[Walter]

Thanks, Egg

[bills_red]

nice run by Bush

[bills_red]

Brees just threw a pick

[bills_red]

Man nice throw by Payton, only thing is....throw it to Harrison!!!! for my FF, I have Payton and Harrison

[bills_red]

Colts D as held NO to 0 TD's! wow

[Walter]

Very impressive showing by Indy's defense.

[bills_red]

Right now the Colts are executing the Tampa 2 defense to PERFECTION. They are punishing the Saints with their speedy hits. They are slowing the ball carrier down and just destroying him. They are exposing Reggie Bush's happy feet.

Let's hope this is the Bills in a year or two.

[Walter]

Why didn't the Saints go for it?

[bills_red]

Why didn't the Saints go for it?

They were at their own 20. If it was on the 40 or so I would think about it but not at you'r own 20. Or were they at the 30?

EDIT:

Okay they were at their 29, go for it.

[bills_red]

Td!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, I mean, if you get it, good. If not, you punt to the best offense in football that your defense hasn't been able to stop in this half. To me, it was a no-brainer.

[bills_red]

David is so used to playing cover 2 and playing in zone so he can look at the QB/backfield. He is not a man-man guy imo.

[Walter]

Yeah, that was a pretty flawed signing by the Saints.

[bills_red]

He would be a nice fit in BUFF, but thats all said and done.

[bills_red]

Jeff Saturday was an UDFA(Undrafted Free Agent). Luke Lawton IDK

[Walter]

Saturday had a stint with the Ravens; Lawton played with a billion teams.

[Walter]

Ryan Lilja played for Kansas City.

Oops, guess that stat was wrong.
