18 To 88:
Ten thoughts from Week Four:
1. The tribute to Edgerrin James was the best moment of the day for me. The crowd was screaming like the Colts had just won a nail-biter. They packed some amazing highlights into the short tribute video. You could tell how much it meant to #32. Manning said he was almost choked up out there.
2. Offensively the Colts were consistent. They moved the ball well all game, but seemed a bit disinterested after the lead grew to 25 points. Garcon and Collie continue to improve. Addai is getting his groove back. I still don't like all the runs to the outside. It just isn't working. Despite some obvious flaws, I'm giving the run game the benefit of the doubt. The Colts are finally notching rushing touchdowns and even picked up four rushing first downs.
3. Defensively, I'm impressed. The tackling has been stellar thus far. Lots of effort plays being made (Foster and Mathis come to mind). I'll take 49 yards on 19 rushes any day...

Ravens: Can't win like this
The interception that Joe Flacco just threw at the New England 8 yard line was the fourth serious mistake the Ravens have made in the first half. No way to sugarcoat that. The Patriots are too good to beat on the road making a couple of key mistakes in a game, much less a handful like that.
There was an obvious miscommunication on the play, since Mark Clayton turned into the end...
