Compare Manning and Brady in yesterday's games (against Carolina and the Redskins)?

Did anyone notice how Peyton was struggling, and finally wore down the Panthers? On the other hand, the Brady bunch totally dominated the Redskins. Are Colts fans a little nervous? Should they be? Does anyone think the Pats will be up for this game?

    Well if I was the Colts I'd be pretty nervous because the Redskins scheme is very similiar to what the Colts do on defense, and the Redskins have better defensive players.

    Cant compare Carolina too much with what new england does cause the defenses are pretty different. Both teams blitz quite a bit, but they have different approaches. Manning didn't play too well yesterday but that doesn't really mean anything come sunday, carolina and new england don't play the same defensive schemes and I would expect that Manning will have a better day overrall than he did sunday, Addai wont have much of an impact.

    Are Colts fans a little nervous? Should they be?

    Probably should be who knows if they are. Pats fans should be nervous too, both teams are good.

    Does anyone think the Pats will be up for this game?

    They will be up for this one. Both teams are pretty annoyed with each other. Colts certainly don't like the fact that New England is getting the spotlight when they are the world champions and New England hates the fact that they lost the game last January. Both teams will bring it, New England is bigger and stronger and faster on the outside, I think new wins 45-34

    Excited? Yes, Nervous? Nah. You're right, Peyton did struggle yesterday, but give credit to the Panthers' D, they were in his face all day, please give me the name of a QB who never struggle with that kind of rush.

    For the game on this coming Sunday, personally i believe it's going to be a good game, and do not expect the Pats to blow out the Colts. However, whether the Colts win or lose this game, this will not be a game that make or break them, the only important game is when it come to the playoff, should they meet again. However New England will have a chip on their shoulder, if they get their asses kicked in this game, other teams around the league will start laughing at their faces, and the message of "Those cheaters deserve what they got" will pop up again

    I don't think the Colts will be nervous come next Sunday against the Patriots. Manning will make big plays at the right moment & Brady will too, but I pick Colts to win this game. Whoever wins game, it will not be by much. I can guarantee the Pats won't dominate like they did against my Redskins.

    Wow. Two different styles. My thoughts are that the Pats will face a quicker defense in the Colts than they have faced all year. Also, the Colts D will face a quicker offense than they've faced all year. Therein lies the key. Manning will do his thing regardless. It will be up to the Pats offense in the end.
