Monday Night Football - Colts @ Titans

[livethesounds]

started the thread early, but i'm going to be gone in a few hours to watch the game with some friends.
titans have a shot to put a stranglehold on the division.

Titans 27 - Colts 17

[we are cured]

go haynesworth

[BrokenMirror]

I've got a baaad feeling about this one. Which is why I'm picking the Titans to win.

Come on Peyton, prove me wrong. Punish me for my lack of faith.

(Good lord do we need Bob Sanders back now...and Addai...and most of our offensive line)

[IcedOpethBlind]

go CJ

[LeftWideOpen]

Chris Johnson needs to run wild. And the Titans D has to shut down Wayne, Clark and Harrison.

piece of cake.

[FondestMemory]

severed heads don't bounce once they're mounted on spears.

[Drew Beringer]

hahaha

I have a feeling the Colts win tonight.

[livethesounds]

severed heads don't bounce once they're mounted on spears.

colts heads do? :shrug:

[FondestMemory]

colts by 12.

[BrokenMirror]

hahaha

I have a feeling the Colts win tonight.

Good lord I hope you're right. We could really use a big win on the road to lift our momentum, especially with the Patriots coming to town next week.

The only way I see the Colts winning is if Peyton just destroys the pass defence. Chris Johnson will probably have a big day, and Collins isn't gonna turn the ball over, so this could be a high scoring affair. And nobody knows how to win shootouts better than Peyton Manning (except maybe Favre). That's the only way we win tonight. If the points total is less than 40, Titans win.

[iihungrieii]

TITANS TO THE SUPERBOWL!!!!!!!!!!

x

[IcedOpethBlind]

hehe

[ProfessorForbes]

Bob Sanders we need him back more than ever. Unfortunately the Colts can't run the ball or stop the ball and the Titans do both of those greatly. Vanden Bosch is a game-time decision so he might be out, that'll help the O-Line a little bit. We'll see I have a good feeling Colts win if Manning gets hot early but if Titans run the ball all night it'll be over quickly.

Colts 24 Titans 20

The Colts success is going to ride on how well they execute in the passing game, and the level of protection their o line can give manning against our pass rush. From what i've seen most of the year, i think we handle the o line and get to manning a few times. He can't afford to throw multiple picks in this game, and if he does, i think we win handily.

It seems like a mismatch honestly, but i fully expect the colts to come out on their game, despite their play this season. But being that this is monday night, at home, i'd really be shocked to lose this game.

[IcedOpethBlind]

i'd love the Titans if they weren't previously the Oilers...i love their style of football.

[IcedOpethBlind]

always been a fan of Fisher as well.

[livethesounds]

i'd love the Titans if they weren't previously the Oilers...i love their style of football.

well, i love the titans because they were previously the oilers. haha

[IcedOpethBlind]

well, i love the titans because they were previously the oilers. haha

i guess living directly in houston gives me more of a grudge. i remember leaving the last game they ever played at the 'dome against Cincy and not knowing really what was about to really happen..

being 10 years old and all.

[preppyak]

severed heads don't bounce once they're mounted on spears.
And most QB's don't have laser-rocket arms, but this is Peyton Manning we are talking about

[FondestMemory]

i still don't understand what the picture of vince young's drinking buddies have to do with anything. he's not even playing.

[livethesounds]

haha

[livethesounds]

i guess living directly in houston gives me more of a grudge. i remember leaving the last game they ever played at the 'dome against Cincy and not knowing really what was about to really happen..

i went to two games that season and the season before. it was really sad to see them go, because you figured they were going to go, but it just wasn't final. (kind of like the sonics in seattle)
I tried to pick up another team after they left because i was upset, plus i didn't get oilers games every week like i did before, but with all the same players it was hard to just drop them, even though Bud Adams said fuck you to Houston. Plus as much as i loved the oilers derrick, i fell in love with the titans colors (which were basically the oilers, and now are much more like the oilers) and logo.

[IcedOpethBlind]

i did get jeff blake's autograph post-game thanks to a couple bengals fans, that was cool hah.

[livethesounds]

i did get jeff blake's autograph post-game thanks to a couple bengals fans, that was cool hah.

i have nearly every players autograph from the 1995 oilers team besides Steve McNair. I saw him a few times, but the bastard would never sign for more than a couple minutes. I've got a few Eddie George, Al Del Greco, Micheal Barrow, Chris Dishman, Rodney Thomas, Chris Chandler, and Bruce Matthews autographs.

[FondestMemory]

jeff blake was pretty badass. dude was always way underrated.

[preppyak]

i'd love the Titans if they weren't previously the Oilers...i love their style of football.
I'm the opposite, I'm not a big Titans fan, but I was a huge Oilers fan and a Steve McNair fan...which clearly ended poorly in Tennessee

[livethesounds]

yea, i went to a oilers - 49ers game, and i was big fan of Steve Young. I was hoping to get his autograph after the game, but the fact that he left the game with 2 concussions didn't help me out much.

[livethesounds]

your avatar brings back bed memories

why? did you fuck vernon maxwell?

L O L

haha fondest is on a roll today

[pand75]

LenDale and the Ten D has to be shut down to under 15 pts. It's possible but unlikely.

Never thought I'd say this, but go Colts?

[xbrokendownx]

why? did you fuck vernon maxwell?




hahaha nah the knicks blowing the series against them in 94

[Drew Beringer]

lol John Starks airballl

[IcedOpethBlind]

94-95 series with the Suns was the greatest...

Mario Elie w/ the "Kiss of Death"

OnIy_NhcDFg

still gives me chills.

[AreTwoKay]

TITANS! FUCK THE COLTS.

x

[DroppedUrPocket]

peyton gets his bionic leg mangled in the first 4 minutes of posession.

[xbrokendownx]

lol John Starks in that entire series





fixed

[c_rob2700]

Titans by murder

[IcedOpethBlind]

well ill be one of the weirdos more invested in this game than the world series tonight....please bring your A+ game CJ .

[theguilt engine]

I hope the Colts can hand the Titans their first loss--I'm counting my blessings right now.

[theguilt engine]

peyton gets his bionic leg mangled in the first 4 minutes of posession.
hm. highly doubtful.

[IcedOpethBlind]

the titans do well what the colts dont....i cant see indy winning unless the passing game just has its way with their corners.

[c_rob2700]

I don't see the Colts making the playoffs

[IcedOpethBlind]

they desperately need bob sanders back....

[c_rob2700]

I don't think Dungy will go out on a bum season though, i see him staying one more year

[theguilt engine]

I don't think Dungy will go out on a bum season though, i see him staying one more year
yeah.

where in b-town do you live?

[c_rob2700]

yeah.

where in b-town do you live?
I live over by Batchelor Middle School. i go to South

[IcedOpethBlind]

looks like ball jammed his shoulder

[theguilt engine]

good first drive for titans--colts did a nice job with leaving them with a field goal.

[theguilt engine]

I live over by Batchelor Middle School. i go to South
cool, I go to IU ... live at 2nd and 37

[IcedOpethBlind]

excellent play by fuller

[theguilt engine]

colts have excellent field position here.

[theguilt engine]

i can't wait for obama to own this election so i dont have to see commercials and think about politics during football games.

[theguilt engine]

colts td baby!

[jimjam32]

go colts.

[jimjam32]

TEN is overrated.

[theguilt engine]

dammit, com'n defense.

[jimjam32]

i dont think either team will rush for 100 yards total tonight.

[jimjam32]

yeah baby.

[IcedOpethBlind]

tennessee is hardly overrated....if anything theyre still underrated by ESPN/media....

[iihungrieii]

TEN is overrated.

lol they dont get any respect, what are you talking about?

[theguilt engine]

yeah the titans haven't gotten much praise...a little ridiculous really.

[IcedOpethBlind]

there are alot of stupid colts fans on here....posthardcore would be the leader of the bunch.

surprised he hasnt popped in for his usual colts gonna destroy ______!!!3%$%!!

[jimjam32]

lol they dont get any respect, what are you talking about?
great, great defense. offense? not so much.

[jimjam32]

i know from experience that nick harper is not a very good corner.

[IcedOpethBlind]

they have one of the best running games in the league, jesus christ.

[IcedOpethBlind]

thank god CJ was down

[jimjam32]

tennessee is hardly overrated....if anything theyre still underrated by ESPN/media....
i get all my news from CBS. espn is stupid. cbs is all about albert haynsworth

[iihungrieii]

thank god CJ was down

haha he wasnt down, good thing jeff fisher dind't let the colts challenge

[jimjam32]

colts D doesnt look too bad tonight

[rcrook]

i know from experience that nick harper is not a very good corner.

you've ran routes against nick harper?

[IcedOpethBlind]

haha he wasnt down, good thing jeff fisher dind't let the colts challenge

yeah, saw the replay abit after that

[jimjam32]

you've ran routes against nick harper?
yes,


no. i have been a colts fan for a long time and hes not good.

[ProfessorForbes]

Colts not doin too bad so far

[iihungrieii]

i get all my news from CBS. espn is stupid. cbs is all about albert haynsworth

so youre saying the titans are overrated because you think one player is overrated?

[IcedOpethBlind]

i get all my news from CBS. espn is stupid. cbs is all about albert haynsworth

because he's one of if not THE best DT in the game....dude's a beast.

[jimjam32]

so youre saying the titans are overrated because you think one player is overrated?
no. albert haynesworth is great, but hes not a league mvp or anything. dont get me wrong, if i wasnt a colts fan id be a titans fan. jeff fisher is the best coach in the nfl

[jimjam32]

that titans run d is ridiculous

[IcedOpethBlind]

your logic makes no sense at all then

[jimjam32]

your logic makes no sense at all then
how so?

[IcedOpethBlind]

how so?

you call them overrated, then base that on cbs praising haynesworth, who you then acknowledge is a fantastic player, therefore making your argument flawed....

[FondestMemory]

wow.

[AshesAshes]

because he's one of if not THE best DT in the game....dude's a beast.

The guy is a beast but he is a douche bag for stomping on that guy

[jimjam32]

you call them overrated, then base that on cbs praising haynesworth, who you then acknowledge is a fantastic player, therefore making your argument flawed....
he is a great player, but he is not the greatest d-lineman of all time.
the D is great, but kerry collins is washed up.

[AshesAshes]

Collins is so washed up he is only the starting quarterback on a 6-0 team

[IcedOpethBlind]

he is a great player, but he is not the greatest d-lineman of all time.
the D is great, but kerry collins is washed up.

kerry collins does exactly what he needs to do, which is manage the game and be economical with his pass attempts and decisions...their offense is built around one of the best running attacks in the game right now....

and im sure CBS didnt label haynesworth the best DT of all time, your just making shit up now...but what does that even matter, the Titans have the best D in the game.

logic failed again.

[jimjam32]

Collins is so washed up he is only the starting quarterback on a 6-0 team
yeah, he single-handedly won 6 games.

[FondestMemory]

somebody has problems with reading comprehension and wants to argue things nobody's even saying.

[IcedOpethBlind]

Kerry Collins is 6-0 and Peyton Manning is 3-3

dude's either not pumped or washed up, you tell me.

[AshesAshes]

yeah, he single-handedly won 6 games.

Really?

[jimjam32]

dominic rhodes > joseph addai

[IcedOpethBlind]

lol :ok:

[IcedOpethBlind]

The guy is a beast but he is a douche bag for stomping on that guy

ill agree with that.

[IcedOpethBlind]

lol :ok:

fantastic retort.

[Drew Beringer]

booyah third down conversion

[jimjam32]

colts offense looks to be back on track, at least the passing game

[FondestMemory]

i think we've found a new dumbest poster on the site.

[jimjam32]

i think we've found a new dumbest poster on the site.
because my opinion differs? ok.

[iihungrieii]

i think we've found a new dumbest poster on the site.

lol :ok:

[FondestMemory]

haha

[ProfessorForbes]

Almost forgot there was a game going on

[c_rob2700]

because my opinion differs? ok.
i've been holding that position in the Sports forum, glad for you to take it

[vandalroyale]

I need Reggie to score here

[vandalroyale]

crap

[iihungrieii]

fuck

[pand75]

Shut up Kornheiser. Every week he says so much bullshit

[pand75]

lol that was a loud fuck

[vandalroyale]

I like Kornheise on PTI--- On MNF, not so much

[c_rob2700]

Commentating is not his strongpoint

[pand75]

Stupid LenWhale

[iihungrieii]

TIE GAME!!!!!!!!!!

x

[c_rob2700]

yes!

[atticusfinch]

I hate having to root for the Titans tonight, but there's no way in the world the Jags are going to win the division a this point. A Colts loss tonight would mean the Jags would stay even with the Colts with the wild card race, and we've already got the tiebreaker on them so far.

[AshesAshes]

I like Kornheise on PTI--- On MNF, not so much

He is alright on a 30 minute program but thats it. Its torture getting through MNF with him commentating

[vandalroyale]

And now this thread gets bigger with the World Series being put on hold

[c_rob2700]

The Colts have a really tough schedule, i don't see them winning the Wild Card

[vandalroyale]

He is alright on a 30 minute program but thats it. Its torture getting through MNF with him commentating

Totally...I just shake my head at his stupid statements

[c_rob2700]

His humor is dry

[iihungrieii]

HUGE STOP!!!!!!!!!!!

x

[vandalroyale]

Big time stop for the Titans...how long has Wayne been out?

[pand75]

No more Lendale scores and I don't care who wins

[iihungrieii]

why do they keep saying the titans have never been trailing? they were trailing the baltimore game the whole time until the end

[iihungrieii]

No more Lendale scores and I don't care who wins

cheer for the titans =)

[c_rob2700]

I'm pullin for the Titans, Colts fans are fucking douches

[pand75]

cheer for the titans =)
Sure!

[iihungrieii]

CATCH THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!!

x

[vandalroyale]

Fucking throw it to Wayne

[vandalroyale]

Thank you

[iihungrieii]

another HUGE stop right there

[pand75]

Woohoo, go titans.

happy mazn lol

[jimjam32]

need a stop here.

[iihungrieii]

Woohoo, go titans.

happy mazn lol

yup

[atticusfinch]

C'mon Titans please put away the Colts and finish what we started in week 3.

[c_rob2700]

JAWS has to fucking explain everything

[iihungrieii]

we need a TD badly

[c_rob2700]

yes!

[pand75]

Fuck no, not Lendale

[pand75]

This is bad

[jimjam32]

wow, tyjuan hagler stop celebrating you dumbass they got a first down

[c_rob2700]

put your head down jesus

[atticusfinch]

missed one there

[pand75]

Fuck, catch that, now that big bitch is going to get it

[pand75]

Mother fuck!!!!!!!!!!! I'm tied in my league now
EDIT: He got over 10 rushing yard, I'm losing by one.

[c_rob2700]

yes

[xbrokendownx]

cheeseburger white!

[jimjam32]

great run. pissed me off but great effort there

[atticusfinch]

great, just enough time for manning to lead another comeback.

[Bigalan2004]

haha lendale is fat.

[jimjam32]

this one's probably over. the titans D was great tonight.

[c_rob2700]

Mannings knee needs to explode now

[xbrokendownx]

peace colts

[crit]

bye bye Indy

[atticusfinch]

peace indy

[iihungrieii]

LATER COLTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

x

[Bigalan2004]

wow. tackling is optional on indy's d tonight.

[c_rob2700]

fuck yes

[atticusfinch]

well, the titans are legit. that's for sure. where the hell did this team come from??

[itsjdiggity]

fuck yeah

[IcedOpethBlind]

CJ needs a score here

[jimjam32]

my how my colts have fallen

[IcedOpethBlind]

well, the titans are legit. that's for sure. where the hell did this team come from??

their D was solid last year as well, its just the offense was inconsistent, plus the CJ/White duo and their massive line has given them one of the best running games in the league.

[crit]

Thank you CJ

[c_rob2700]

Kornheiser with a retarded rant

[IcedOpethBlind]

Yes!

[rcrook]

if someone had told me the titans would be 7-0 with kerry collins at qb and the colts would be 3-4 i would have told them they were crazy. VY getting hurt is the best thing that ever happened to this team.

[xbrokendownx]

they should bring back VY and run the wildcat

[AshesAshes]

This game got ugly glad I made the choice to watch hockey

[c_rob2700]

did i just hear a 72 dolphins namedrop, jesus

[iihungrieii]

they should bring back VY and run the wildcat

i do remember hearing the titans say they were planning on bringing back VY for some plays, so the wildcat could be a real possibility.

[iihungrieii]

fuck i have to study for 2 midterms now

[livethesounds]

FUCK YES

that game had me worried the first half. we didn't play our game, and tried to throw the ball more, mostly because they were stacking the box and playing really stout run D. Great comeback though, a few huge stops were crucial, and those picks were big. i said before the game that if manning thew 2 picks we win handily, and we did.

once we had the lead it seemed the colts let up quite a bit and our running game started back up.

anyway, great win for the titans. hopefully this shuts some doubters up for now. we have a tough schedule coming up, so it should be interesting.
but shit, it feels great to be 7-0.

[livethesounds]

oh, and so much for "the titans can't score enough points" and "the titans can't stop high powered defenses". we played one today, AND they managed to run the ball on us, and we still came up big in the clutch.
bring on the packers

[mht]

good win today.
