Teams That Get Me

[TouchdownJesus]

I'm taking the Colts. New England and Syracuse are two of my biggest nemesis the last few years. I got burned by Syracuse a few times, and the one time I bet against them, they get an amazing win. Then go back to looking like crap. I hate Syracuse football and have learned my lesson.
I usually bet against Pats and always get killed. Then, if I ever bet on them, they let me down. It really is amazing.
I have found several reasons to take teams like Indy in the past at Foxboro, and Philly ML in S.B.

I just can't see Manning wasting this chance tonight. He's got a banged up Pats team. He's got a defense and a running game to go with the passing game.

I know the Pats will play hard and have a few things up their sleeve, but I just really feel the only way Pats win, or cover for that matter, is that maybe the NFL wants them to. I think there will be a lot of holding on defense (as always) and just hope the refs will call it.

I know Manning just wants to win, but I think given the opportunity, he'd like to win convincingly. To not only get this monkey off his back, but to throw it off and then go step on it.

Golden opportunity for Manning and Colts and I see them winning by 2 TD's.

Also, Colts have had a week to rest and a week to prepare. I just have to think that Manning will be ready to take advantage of this situation given the extra week and all the advantages. Colts. Maybe the public is right this time.

Hopefully, Shula and Csonka, and the rest of the '72 Dolphins won't be out there lining the field. I don't think they start doing that until sometime around week 10. We'll see.

Thanks. I love Manning and Harrison. I like James and remember back a few years when everyone was thinking Ricky Williams should go 1st. I just felt like James was a little better and just more geared to the NFL.
Hard to tell really, b/c James has had better situation overall. Ricky ran good with crappy Saints, who traded everything to get him. Then Wannestadt runs him to death in Miami. Hell, I'd have gone to live in a tent and smoke some weed to. Every week was like 40 carries for 90 yards.
But, yeah I do like the Colts.
