Colts (9-4) @ Texans (11-2) GDT

[Tom Shean]

Thought I'd start this up. We'll most likely lose, because unlike the Lions, we're playing a team that can close out games on the road. It'll be interesting to see what happens on Monday Night though.

If we can keep Luck upright for at least 3 seconds per play we should stand more of a chance.

Also would help if not every RB we have goes down injured.

I'm feeling better watching their pass defense get shredded but without a good running game, we're not going to get too far. If we can establish the run early, that'll help Luck a lot more (though you can say that for a lot of teams). The Texans I feel like are very vulnerable to elite QBs and while Luck may not be there yet, he could test them and play it close.

What's the Haps with Donald Brown? He's pretty crucial to our chances. We had Dwayne Allen in the backfield against the Titans late in the game, don't want to see that too much.

I think this game hinges on our offensive line. If they play like they did this last week we will not have a chance. Tenn was in Lucks face way too much.

In the past, we have shown that we can't stop Foster worth a darn.

I don't think we'll stop him -- but we have to at the very least slow him down. When you slow down the running attack, and the Texans can't use that boot motion off the zone run, that's when they are vulnerable.

If we make Schaub have to beat us, I like our chances.

Please please I hope we slow down Foster....in my fantasy semifinals, I play a guy who has AP, Jamaal Charles, and Foster.....

Once again we get the lovely commentary of Dan Fouts to bless us during our game.

At least we're on a 2 game winning streak with him.
