Tight end Dallas Clark’s role to the Indianapolis Colts could be compared to a component of a car engine. In other words, let’s say for the sake of the conversation that Clark was a water pump in the engine (the engine in this case being the Colts’ offense). If the water pump is not utilized [...]

Despite Colts quarterback Peyton Manning’s assessment of the Houston Texans, it is hard to argue that he thrives against them.

It’s almost like the Indianapolis Colts carry a shopping list to every game and check off a name weekly. First it was Week One with Jason David and the New Orleans Saints; wide receiver Reggie Wayne torched him. Check. Cornerback Nick Harper and the Tennesse Titans; WR Marvin Harrison shooled him.

The Indianapolis Colts will be shorthanded at linebacker today; the team has deactivated LB’s Freddie Keiaho and Rob Morris for today’s game between the Colts and Tennessee Titans. Keiaho played with a dislocated elbow last week in the Colts’ win against the New Orleans Saints. Morris was listed as questionable with a rib injury; Keiaho [...]

Last week the Indianapolis Colts looked like a machine on both sides of the ball as they romped the New Orleans Saints. Everyone expects that from the offense. Will the defense be able to sustain last week’s play as they go to Nashville to battle the Tennessee Titans?
The Colts offense is the Colts offense. There [...]
