Manning and the record

Poor Indy fans, they have to wait another week to see Peyton break Marino's record. I could not believe that some of the fans in Indy were booing the Colts for taking a knee rather than go for a cheap touchdown to tie the record. Its was refreshing to see that when most of the athletes today (can you say Kobe?) think it should all be about them and don't seem to care about sportsmanship.

Seriously, I think the Colts will be tough to beat in the playoffs this year the way they are playing now. I think they can beat the Pats, although not sure about the Steelers. The Steelers are looking really good, and they don't seem to have any glaring weaknesses right now. Assuming Burress and Duce are both healthy by the time the playoffs start, they could be hard to beat.

With the Patriots losing tonight, the Steelers pretty much now have home field locked up. And now the Pats don't even have a first round bye locked up for sure. This has got to be one of the best playoff races in years. Too bad the AFC can't have a couple of the NFC's slots, you might see a losing or 8 and 8 team make the playoffs this year in the NFC. That reminds me of the old days in the NFC central when the Vikings or Packers would win the division going 8-7-1. Yuck!
