One’s funny in commercials; the other makes ladies swoon. Both are top 10 quarterbacks of all-time. Sunday night, the Patriots visit the unbeaten Colts. Ratings should dwarf whatever the Kardashian crap does. It will be only Indy’s third game this season against a team with a winning record (Arizona, Houston). If you’re a stathead looking [...]

Last week the Dolphins blogs we contacted blew us off. Not cool. This week we’re pleased to bring back Trading Places with a chat with the Colts blog 18to88.com.
Some interesting comments here, particularly the perception of Tom Brady out in Indy.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning is having an MVP-type 2009 season. At the halfway point, he’s first in the National Football League in completion percentage (70.6), second in passing yards (2,545) and touchdown passes (16), and third in overall passer rating (105.2). Most importantly, his team is still undefeated at 8-0. This afternoon, he made some long-term...

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady addresses the Indianapolis media during his conference call on Wednesday, November 11, 2009.
What a week to be Eli Manning.
Since he has been inserted as the Giants starting QB [which was a bad move by Tom Coughlin], the Giants haven’t won a game and have fallen out of the playoff race. He’s had to face the Eagles, Redskins, Falcons, Ravens...all great defenses [the Eagles, Redskins and Ravens are 3 top NFL defenses]. In the last 3 games...the Giants have lost each by...

As expected, the Colts weren't quiet on Tuesday's off day as they signed cornerback Anthony Madison and released defensive end Josh Thomas.
Don't know much about Madison other than what you find on the Internet. He was undrafted in 2006 and has bounced around a bit, with Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay that season, the Steelers again in 2007 and 2008, then Cleveland for a spell this season...

Last year the Dolphins unveiled the “wildcat” offense in New England, and it paid off with a big win. Sunday the team wasn’t so lucky, using the offense quite a bit but still not able to stop the Pats enough to leave New England with a win, as the team fell 27-17.

Mark Sanchez is taking this cold-weather thing very seriously. For the second straight day, he practiced in shirt sleeves, bare arms exposed to the elements. It wasn't that big a deal yesterday, but it was considerably colder today, and he was one of maybe two or three players who opted for the sleeveless look.
Sanchez, 0-1 in cold-weather games, is trying to get acclimated...
REDSKINS 36-JAGUARS 30 [Sportz this week 0-1, this year 29-18]: Is this the same offense that played this preseason?? That played the first two weeks of the season?? The Redskins much maligned offense put up 31 pts on a bad Houston defense last week which was nice to see. But to put up 36 pts on the Jaguars defense!?!?! This is a defense that held the Steelers to NOTHING...

If one play characterized the Patriot's win over the fish yesterday, it was Randy Moss's stiff-arm touchdown run just after Miami strutted its stuff via the over-hyped "Wildcat" offense.With one forearm push, Moss sent a message to Joey Porter and the rest of the Dolphins that New England was not going to be denied victory—ultimately 27 to 17.While Tom Brady is...
