That’s going to make things a bit more difficult.

I'm jinxed, I tell you.
I think we can beat Indy without LT, but a long playoff run is less likely. My one hope is that if he looks terrible early that Norv gets Sproles more touches.

2 or 3 Carries
is what I see LT having, then sitting out… just like the Championship Game last year. (Not that he shouldn’t if he can’t play). I guess Doctors are suggesting immediate surgery this week to reattach that tendon.

I'm blaming Hochuli
If we had locked up the AFC West title going into last week’s game, LT would have been chillin’ on the sideline. I realize that I can’t really blame Hochuli, but it’s just so convenient.

Michael Bennett
Is looking like a pretty shrewd move about now.

Sorry that you had to edit the title.

Ha, No Problem
I would have left alone on the side; but it was important to get on the front page.

My hope...
is that we see more of Hester because of this. I saw a bit of Bennett when he was with Minnesota and he’s not much different from Sproles. The Colts have the speed, but can be punished by a power back.
I also don’t want to see Sproles getting hurt carrying the ball up the gut.

Hester Looked Good
On the TD play against Denver; but that was after Denver had essentially folded. I liked what I saw from the few preseason clips of Bennett when he was with Tampa; he does weigh in at 210 so he is bigger than Sproles. Matto makes a good point that Tolbert could get some carries in short yardage situations.

This is awful news....
FOR THE COLTS!!! What kind of a back is Bennett? Hester did a pretty damn good job of being a bruising up the middle back last week. Maybe today Hester=LT Bennett=Sproles @ RB and Sproles can do returns and screens.
Otherwise, we may need Cromartie to do returns if Sproles gets more touches.
Brady Hoke, Al Borges, and Rocky Long. Aztec football is back!
