I mentioned in the Philip Rivers thread that he seems to be spreading the passes around to a lot of different receivers, and that's probably a good thing ...... it may not be conducive to getting Colts receivers to named to the Pro Bowl, but it is certainly indicative of a team which has everybody chipping for the common cause (winning games.) It is somewhat reminiscent of Bill Belichick's philosophy of not having any "Eat, watch the game, and collect a paycheck" players on his roster.
In perhaps the team's finest and most impressive overall game of the season against the Packers last month, Rivers doled the ball out to 11 different receivers.
