The logic is that they probably would have went 2-14 last year, and maximum 5-11 the year before. One thing is for sure in my mind, Jim Caldwell will never again be faced with the dilemma of benching starters or playing them and trying to go 16-0.

Caldwell might have remembered that incident from a decade ago with the Jaguars when they played Boselli vs. the Bungholes last game of the season.  They coulda won without Boselli.  Sadly he got an ACL injury so he couldn't be there to stop Kearse in the AFCC game, and Jax got a negative hat trick.  They woulda won the SB.  OR when Belichump played Welker in a meaningless game vs. the Texans got an ACL injury & they lost in the 1st round. 
   I want my starters healthy for the playoffs.  Its better to go undefeated in the playoffs ;)

Peyton's good.  He 1st earned my respect in 2002 when he beat the Donkeys in the snow.  Peyton just sucked against Florida & in the bowl games in college.

peyton can be in the GOAT QB discussion i don't think u need to talk about his college days  ???

Shallow:
Chuck Pagano is in now, and the way it seems to look Peyton Manning is definitely on his way out of Indy. I can't imagine anyway Peyton Manning playing for the Colts in 2012. Though if he does play and plays somewhere else, I see the beginning of a new curse in making that may end up rivaling the Bambino and the Billy Goat curses. Of course, if he retires then it won't matter.


Funny how I've been saying for years that they need to dump the Polians and their entire philosophy and build a smash-mouth team, and it took Peyton to go down and most likely leave town for Jim Irsay to finally smarten up. Everything now depends how good their new QB is and how good an OC they hire. Hue Jackson is still out there and he is a great Xs and Os guy, but let's see how they move forward. Andrew Luck could very well be the next Tim Couch, David Carr, Alex Smith. I mean there have been plenty of surefire NFL ready QBs picked #1 overall that end up being a bust. The odds are less than 50/50.

Shallow:
Looks like Caldwell may end up QB coaching in Baltimore.
