Colts not playing to win.

I think we all would make the same decision in our lives too given the same choice... why would we take our $50,000 truck down in the hollar and through the woods if we had a less valuable truck....what would you guys that want the colts to get to the superbowl be saying today if manning had gotten hurt in that game ...Even the "fans in the stands" would have crucified who ever was responsible for playing him in a game that didn't matter if he had gotten hurt..

No doubt it's a no win deal for the coach and his staff....but I would have gone for the win.
Now on the opposite side didn't New England play hard to win every game a few years back only to get beat in the Super Bowl plus lose the undefeated season? We will see this if this approach works for the colts. Good luck to them!

This may very well come back to bite them in the butt. Especially if they pull this same crap at Buffalo. Resting players is all fine and good until you loose your edge and then you get your rears handed to you on a plate.

This was a bad coaching move in my humble opinion, it's gonna backfire watch and see.

I certainly hope you are right...my Bunglers need all the help they can get.. they have a tough time beating a good team so a little help would be appreciated...lol..now if only the giants can win the nfc crown we might have a shot...

Man the Giants looked like a High School team last Sunday, that was bad..............

[Hlleonard]

Shux....we might be able to beat the giants if we can catch them on a bad day...

What to do..What to do...this coming weekend is gona be bad for me...I like the Bengals and I like the Jets....Can't call me a fan because I don't go to any of the games...I don't think the Bengals have much to gain and the Jets have everything to lose...maybe I just need to wish for a good day and go fishing...

They did play hard to win every game and if you remember, one of the last regular season games was against those same giants, and they only beat them 35-31 or something close like that. So when the Giants turned around and beat them in the super bowl it wasn't that big of a surprise. I was jacked to see them go for it and I'm not much on the patriots.
