The Road to No. 1 Starts in Raleigh
By Staff
The Colts began their road to the Super Bowl, really, on Monday night against Jacksonville. Next is 4-2 Carolina, and it’s not going to be easy. Then, well…then there’s New England and San Diego, one giant and one returning-to-form-giant in the following weeks. And speaking of Giants, Eli Manning’s in London today playing the red-headed stepchildren of the NFL. Yeah, way to go Goodell…you try to spread the NFL’s influence by sending a mediocre team on a streak and skidmarks of the NFL. Gosh, I can’t see why the world wouldn’t eat futbol americana up.

Start noticing during today’s game against the Panthers how the Colts are utilizing their left side for the run (when everyone thought the left side was the weak side because of Tarik Glenn’s retirement and a frosh is at the helm). Also, ask yourself if Reggie Wayne is shaping his season up to his best yet. Here’s the video.
