Washington's $80 million Man!!!!

At this point in time the Redskin faithful need to recognize that "their team" is RG3.  My concern for their franchise is not having their player get hurt.  He needs to develop the "ability" to become a better pocket passer.  If not, in the future he will get smashed and, it will take the Redskins another 4 years to rebuild.  In general, they have a good defense.  They need more of a solid leadership role from Griffin.  Griffin needs to take command of that team and, decide that they won't be losers anymore in the NFC east.  With all the $ this cat makes he needs to bring more to the table.  Overall, Washington's return on investment with RG3 has not been what it should be to this point.  BTW good win against the Bears today.         Paul E.

COLTS BEAT BRONCOS....BIG win****2013

Well, what I can tell you is that I didn't expect my Colts to pull it out.  OK call it a lack of faith in Andrew Luck and, crew.  However, after watching them get handled by the Chargers last week I was worried.  Robert Mathis may have had the game of his life.  The Colts ruffed up Peyton like I haven't seen all year.  I was very happy with the way the Indy fans cheered and, paid respects to him before the game.  And, then at kickoff went crazy and, it was game time.  My suspicion is that this is a prequel to a playoff matchup of some kind.  Hopefully, the Colts will play them at home. 

I would like to see the Colts get better at running the ball/time management.  You can not let the clock stop and, open up opportunities for great quarterbacks like Manning.  Next time he will get you; if you can't close that door properly.  Don't get me wrong. They did a good job.  But, not a suffocating job so that the Broncos steam was taken out of their sails with 5 minutes left.  Particularly, in this game the Colts should have "locked-up" this game by that point. 

I couldn't ask for a better defensive effort from the crew.  Blue jerseys were everywhere.  The "d" line pushed hard and gave Peyton relatively little time to operate.

Broncos looked like the Broncos usually do this year.  The looked like the team to beat.  Eric Decker is a beast making some crazy circus catches.  Best of luck to the Broncos the rest of the year and, in particular to my favorite NFL player all-time Peyton Manning.

World Series Bound St. Louis Cardinals and Boston Red Sox

Both teams are really hot right now.  Hence, why they got "here".  Game 1 is on Wednesday.  I believe that the St. Louis Cardinals will win it.  Both, have had great years. It will be exciting to see two teams that are so aggressive with base running and, swinging the bat.  Hedged up against great pitching by guys like Wacha and Lester.  Boston having the best record in baseball this year seems to be a worthy opponent for all of the marbles.

I think that the St. Louis Cardinals will win in 6 games.  They will rely on their best pitching of the year and, a hungry team that hasn't gotten a lot of news headlines this year.

Denver Broncos VS. Indy's Colts ***** 10-20-2013

After the big fiasco with Jim Irsay this week; Peyton Manning will be ready.  I believe this game to be of great importance to the Colts.  After losing all respect last week against San Diego they must make a statement tonight.  I don't believe they have to win; but they must show.  They have to show that they can hang with the best.  If they lose by 10 or less I believe that to be a respectable showing.  I'd love for them to come out and, beat the Broncos.  That would be huge for my Colts.  However, I've seen this Manning guy play before he's pretty good. 

I expect Manning to clock manage very, very well.  That is why the Colts must put up touchdowns every drive.  If they don't they are in big trouble. Expect Manning to lead the Broncos with 40 minutes in time of possession.  It is pretty clear that both of these teams are playoff bound.  With that in mind; is this a preview of what we could see come January. 

Final score Broncos 40 Colts 23 

*Colts fans you had better cheer your guy on. Even though he's on another team now.  Don't be like Houston and, jeer the main reason you so much success.

Detroit Tigers (2013) Not That Hungry***

Particularly, concerning the ALCS (against the Red Sox) the Tigers looked tired & old. Their hitting was atrocious.  I almost figured they were lucky to beat the A's in the divisional series.  The last month of the season was a big indicator to me that they would not make the World Series.  It was almost liked they played a new season since then but, the "team" was without Fielder and Cabrera. 

You can't have Fielder go such a very long time without an RBI.  Also, Cabrera proved to be a huge liability in the field with his injury.  They just all around looked sluggish.  The Red Sox looked like they were hungrier and, had the drive to do whatever it takes to get to the Fall Classic.  They took more risks and, they usually paid off.  Not to mention that Leyland can't manage a bullpen to save his life.  In Game 6 you have to have Scherzer go the distance.  BIG MISTAKE.....BIG 


*Better luck next year Tigers!!!
