Indianapolis @ Denver
Best matchup of the first half, in my opinion. Winner gets to say they are the best team in the AFC. It's also intriguing because while Indy has had Denver's number in recent years, most notably in the playoffs, those wins all came in the RCA dome.
I'm leaning towards Denver in this game because they should be able to run on Indy, but their offense overrall isn't inspiring anyone.

if our defensive backfield does what it was built to do, denver will win, altough it will likely be 10-7 or something moronic.
if peyton plays like peyton, we have no chance. indy wouldn't even have to take the field on defense and joke would still find a way to throw an interception.

It'll be a good one, if it was in Indy I'd be confident in the Colts. Should be interesting to see how Denvers offense and Indy's running game respond. Joseph Addai should play a big role in Indy's success or lack of.

Very interesting matchup. Champ Bailey versus the top route runner in the history of the NFL.

I'm leaning toawrds the broncos on this one, Sure jake the snake hasn't been all too great, but their Defense has be awsome.
If it snows then manning won't be able to play good outside in the weather....

I am not afraid of Harrison one bit. I'm scared of Reggie Wayne against Darrent Williams. Anyway, at home, I Think our defense can neutralize Colts O to a good extent. The Colts haven't shown much "Greatness" as a team. If our offense can score (which I know it really hasn't been able to do), we will win.

Indi, I think they're the best team in the NFL, so of course I'll go with them.

Unfortunatley the weather forecast has it that the temperature will be around 69 degrees on Sunday. Tomorrow we're suppose to have heavy snow with a high of 40 degrees. Anyway, Colorado weather is pretty unpredictable... so u never kno. That'd be awesome. If it snows, there is no way we lose.

That makes very little sense. You do realize that the Broncos are to this point pretty much the only team the Colts have beaten in the playoffs, right?

i'll be waiting for you to post a valid reason why you think comparing this denver team to that one is even marginally relevant.

I was just making the point that I heard the same thing before that game, and Oakland was going up and down the field. While the denver team is not the same, and their defense is much better, the Colts are lot better than the Raiders too.

The Colts will win. Indy won't put up 40, but they won't need to against this anemic Bronco offense.

The Colts will win this matchup with ease. It will be close the first half, but in the second half Peyton will turn it on. Just like he did against the Redskins..

Obviously i'm going with the Colts, but we have to stop Tatum Bell first. McFarland is helping us out in the run game and Bob Sanders returns this Sunday. If we get off to a good start and force Denver to pass, Freeney and Mathis will have a big day, especially with Lepsis done for the year.
