So, the fact that the Patriots lost one of their biggest weapons this weekend doesn't seem to have changed anyone's opinion on the Indy thing?

Seems that this scenario is exactly what Caldwell/Polian were guarding against. *shrugs*

- I just don't get what good 16-0 would be if the Colts lost, say...Reggie Wayne...getting there. -- nm - Jim Jan 4, 12:37 14

  - playing for 16-0 guarantees the loss of Reggie Wayne? -- nm - TFox Jan 4, 12:37 12
    - That's not what I said. You missed the "if" in my post. Again...what good is the undefeated regular season if you potentially jeopardize the - Jim Jan 4, 12:39 10
      - well, if it didn't have a little jeopardy involved in it, then it wouldn't be worth getting, would it? - TFox Jan 4, 12:40 9
        
        And this is where we differ, I guess. I play to win the Super Bowl. I don't care what my record is, as long as I win the last game of the season. -- nm - Jim Jan 4, 12:42 8
        
        Because you are sort of scared of having an A+ season, and would rather say "Deal" with Howie Mandel and just take the B+ season. - TFox Jan 4, 12:44 4
        
        So you'd rather have 18-1 with your loss in the Super Bowl...than 18-1 with your loss in Week 17? -- nm - Jim Jan 4, 12:46 3
        
        unequivocally yes, if the loss in Week 17 is us laying down and forfeiting. -- nm - TFox Jan 4, 12:46 2
        
        You so funny. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 4, 12:47 1
        
        I'm not lying. -- nm - TFox Jan 4, 12:47
        
        Problem is there's more evidence that if you rest key players, you probably won't make it to the Super Bowl. -- nm - Inigo Jan 4, 12:44

        FWIW, I wouldn't have pulled Manning either. I just don't understand the grief this dude has taken. - Jim Jan 4, 12:45
    - (playing for 16-0 even makes the loss of Reggie Wayne probable?) -- nm - TFox Jan 4, 12:37
he lost it running. not via a big hit or something like that -- nm - Beaker Jan 4, 12:31 2
- So? We've yet to see how resting starters will help/hurt Indy. We have definitely seen how playing starters will hurt NE. *shrugs* -- nm - Jim Jan 4, 12:32 1
  - well, you've sort of seen how resting starters will hurt Indy, in that Earth, Gaia, and the Easter Bunny all hate them now. -- nm - TFox Jan 4, 12:36
What happened to Welker could have happened in practice. He was untouched. It just happens. -- nm - TFox Jan 4, 12:31 4
- It almost did happen in practice to 85. -- nm - Reagen Jan 4, 12:32
- Couldn't have happened if he was on the sideline. That's all I'm saying. -- nm - Jim Jan 4, 12:31 1
  - No, not during that hour of that day, it couldn't have. -- nm - TFox Jan 4, 12:32
- It also happens while palying games. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 4, 12:31
