It looks like the Colts have changed the way they use the report and are now listing some players who have injuries, but did not miss any practice time. This, along with a large number of players missing time makes for the longest Colts injury report I've ever seen. Unfortunately the list is not just long but star studded. Did Not Participate: Antoine Bethea (foot), Keyunta Dawson (knee), Aaron Francisco (Ankle), Dwight Freeney (Abdomen), Anthony Gonzalez (knee), Kelvin Hayden (knee)...

Colts still the one, injuries

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:00:01 -0500

The injury report is longer this week, but the good news is S Antoine Bethea says his foot injury won't keep him from playing. Here are the Saturday offerings: INJURY REPORT OUT CB Kelvin Hayden (knee), WR Anthony Gonzalez (knee), K Adam Vinatieri (knee), OT Dan Federkeil (concussion), S Aaron Francisco (ankle) -- Francisco missed last week's game, so the Colts will be without one of their best special-teams guys.

Ravens/Colts Friday Injury Report

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:57:50 -0500

Below is the final injury report and game status for both the Baltimore Ravens and Indianapolis Colts for Sunday's key matchup. Looks like a long list of questionable players on both sides, but Indy's list is a lot longer than ours. Perhaps that's part of the reason that Indy is only a one point favorite over our Ravens, when it appears that the undefeated Colts should be at least a six or seven point road favorite based on this year's record, much less their recent succes...

Colts-49ers redux

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 09:34:53 -0500

Two thoughts after watching the Colts' 18-14 victory over San Francisco again. The 49ers really played a smart game. Great defensive effort. That said, credit the Colts for sticking with it when everything wasn't going according to plan. The offense had to grind, the defense got tough in the second half, and despite the injuries the Colts found a way. It's the mark of a solid team, something we've come to expect. Here are the observations: * Opening kickoff is to the 6, whic...
