My turn to chime in. A missed chip shot FG, and 2x's stopped on downs in obvious FG range equates to 9 points. That would of brought the game a lot closer....and just maybe things might have played out a little different. Ben was obvioulsy rusty, but damn is Indy's D fast. They totally dominated a very physical team. As for that notion of them being soft, forget it. Better team all the way around...enough said.
I kept saying to myself how Cowher didn't give his players a chance and he didn't have them up. Well, if you can't get up for an undefeated team this late in the season on Monday night you should be playing marbles instead of football. As for Cowher, he is not a field general. He is however a great motivator and his teams/players usually put forth a good record every year....which equates to winning the division and some playoff games. As a owner who wouldn't want that?? I am not a fan of his in any way, but lets use this analogy...what makes Cowher any different than Bobby Cox for the Atlanta Braves? Teams win every year and never have any player in trouble and sell out every game and NEVER win the big one.
All this said, they could be in trouble to make the playoffs. Home with Cincy, Chicago and at Minny the next three games. As you see, they are not good nor have they played in domes much. This is a must win on Sunday.
Tune in next week.
