Packers vs. Colts - Colts Win 21 to 13 - Pre Season 2011-2012

"And we are underway!!!" The defending NFL champions, The Greenbay Packers are up against one of the most offensively creative teams in the league today. The Colts starting running back, Joseph Addai, has signed a new 3 year contract and is already tearing up the field with his elusive run game. But the real question is, will Peyton Manning be able to start the season with this neck injury? Is it even true? Could it just be for the media?

The former starting QB for the Titans, Carrie Collins is now in his 14th season and has now be recruited by the Colts. Curtis Painter, is the started QB for the evening, but I'm guessing the coaches will more than likely allow Collins take over for the second half. Although Painter been a reliable and studious member of the team, yet they still bring in Collins. This Manning neck injury could be serious, or is it?

No matter what, they both are up against Aaron Rodgers. I'm not sure how the the Packers will keep him in the game, but what I am sure about is his, impeccable sense of timing and release. His performance last year reminded me of Tom Brady's amazing 16-0 season. Most would say a 16-0 regular season record is better than loosing even just 1 game in a season. Is there something about loosing that makes you persevere?




I'm going to give this one to the Packers! They obviously came with a sense of urgency and you can see it in their body language. Hopefully, Manning will ready for the beginning by the season. Jeff Saturday says he will, I don't think they would make it into the playoffs.
