We’re not beating LA unless we play a pretty damn good game, which I’m not confident we will.

They may beat us but they're NOT winning it all. You have way too much confidence in Stafford.

Stafford in Detroit wasn’t a problem.

Stafford in LA paired with Mcvay is a BIG problem.

Oddly enough, I'm not even a bit upset. The off-season was a rollercoaster and the team didn't look ready. Russell Wilson is always going to win that game given those circumstances. We go again Sunday. Rams are currently favored -4 in Indianapolis.

I dont get upset about the colts anymore, maybe that just comes with age. I was disappointed with the performance of the lines though. If we can get that cleaned up I think we will have a pretty decent year, but are definitely not championship ready.

If we play next week like yesterday, its going to be real ugly against the rams.

I was thinking about this yesterday. It seems to me that the further we get away from the Manning days and the (good) Luck days, losing doesn't bother me as much anymore. Especially losing the first game as has become tradition. I'm middle age now, not "old", but I'm not upset for a week anymore if we lose. A loss deep in the playoffs might do it, but we usually don't get there anyway.

Same. I am 46 now and with all the other thing I have going on, work, kids, house, etc, I just dont have time or energy to get that worked up with a loss. When I was younger it bothered me a lot more.

At 68 it bugs you even less. Life ends up hitting everyone with things that really count. I still get pissed big time, but it doesn't last once the freaking game is over. If I stopped getting pissed I'd stop watching because, for me, it would mean I don't care. I enjoy nothing better than watching the Colts turn it around. Hoping they do it again but think we are a year away from competing for championship. I will enjoy watching Paye et al improve to the point of dominating.
