The caution is that the Colts have had a tendacy in the past to play down to the level of their competition time and time again.

If this thing is real with the offense, then this game will look a whole lot like week one where we took the game in hand early and never let go.

We will see. I am cautionally optimisitic that Danny Dimes can be the real thing and power an offensive cast that just needed a solid QB to run well.

Time will tell.

I think the guy has passed every test so far. He needs to keep stacking good games. First game was how well he has a grasp of what Steichen wants to do with this offense and second game he handled pressure very well. The other major strike against him is that he cannot really bring a team back from a deficit. Hope we don't have to find that out this week. I am just optimistic and have thrown caution to the the wind. He has been way better than average. I still love AR though.

I think it was Bootleg where I saw a statistical analysis of whether Jones has gotten better or if it's just being in a system conducive to his talent with far more support than he's ever received previously. The conclusion they came to was that it's a little of both. Having better talent obviously helps, but Jones is making throws he's never been able to make before, in part because he's never had the pieces around him like he has here to be able to rip a deep ball and have the confidence that he'll have the time to make the throw and the receiver who can go get it.
