We very well might look back to Week 5 at the end of the year and determine it was the week where the Colts turned around their season. The Colts were down 27-10 with less than five minutes left in the fourth quarter and were on their way to 1-3 on the season. Then the Colts were given three different gifts from Sage Rosenfels via fumbles and a pick in the final minutes to win 31-27 in Houston. Indy dropped 21 points in 2 minutes and 10 seconds on the Texans capped off by a miraculous one-handed catch by Reggie Wayne to seal the victory. Check out the video clip to see all the highlights from this crazy game.

StonecoldJZ's Sound Off

* Andrew Bynum is out eight weeks after temporarily dislocating his kneecap yesterday in a 100-99 win over Memphis. The Lakers are currently 4th in the Western Conference, but with this loss you can count on LA being no better than 7th by the time the young kid returns. His DRAMATIC improvement this year is the main factor behind the Lakers improvement and Ronny Turiaf and Vladimir Radmanovic can’t cut the mustard in trying fill his shoes.

* Not only is Darren McFadden leaving Arkansas early for the NFL, but now comes word that junior tailback Felix Jones will also be going pro. That is over 230 yards rushing per game gone from the Hogs as they go into next season. Welcome Bobby Petrino! Thinking about moving on to another team already???

* The Bolts worked the Colts yesterday in Indy. The Chargers were able to orchestrate the huge upset without hardly any reps from Antonio Gates, a mere 28 yards from an injured LT, and without Philip Rivers for the final few minutes of the game. Players with names like Billy Volek, Legedu Naanee, Darren Sproles and Vincent Jackson were the real keys to the victory. I highly suggest there isn’t much celebrating after the victory against the defending SuperBowl champs because New England is waiting in the wings this coming weekend.

What About Bob?

NFL

Bob Sanders

Bob Sanders of the Indianapolis Colts has reportedly signed a 5-year contract extension for $37.5 million. Sanders will receive $20 million in guaranteed cash and will be the highest paid safety in the NFL. I think this is justified because there isn’t anyone in the NFL playing at the level Sanders is currently performing at the safety position.

The Jags are a good team with a solid defense, but that won’t matter this evening. The Colts have revenge on their mind from the 17-44 blowout Jax handed them last December. Indy covers -3!

Tony Dungy Makes NFL History

NFL

Tony Dungy

Big congratulations in order for Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy on becoming the first afro-american NFL head coach to win the Super Bowl.  I hope this can continue to break down barriers for coaching in the NFL and elsewhere because everyone deserves the same opportunity.  Hat tip Tony Dungy!!!

Rex GrossmanThis worthy recipient didn’t necessarily do something flat out stupid this past week, but I guarantee you he is feeling like quite the Dumb A$$.  Even before the Super Bowl started people were calling Rex Grossman the worst quarterback to play in the big event.  He also had at least half of the Chicago Bears fan base calling for him to be benched for good.  If you have these things hanging over your head you sure don’t want to throw two interceptions, lose two fumbles and have just over 50 passing yards through three quarters ultimately leading to a 17-29 loss to the Indianapolis Colts.  Rex you better have nine lives or else you will not be around to play next year in Chicago.  I highly suggest you lay extremely low or get a second home outside of Chicago for the next couple of months.

Baltimore Ravens 

This week our award goes to the Baltimore Ravens.  The Ravens all last week ran their mouth and acted as if defeating the Colts would be as easy as shacking up with Paris Hilton.  The problem was the Ravens actually had to play with something other than their big mouths and the Colts ultimately dominated the Ravens 15-6.  Please note, if you are going to talk trash all week and flaunt your stuff it would be a good idea to score more than 6 points in the actual game.  Morons!

Tennessee Thriller

NFL

Rob Bironas

Rob Bironas of the Titans kicked a 60 yard field goal with seven seconds left to win a thriller in Nashville today against the Colts. It was the longest field goal in franchise history and tied for the third longest in NFL history. The Titans have now won five out of their last seven games and could continue to play spoiler as the season winds down. Vince Young and gang travel to Houston next weekend to take on the Texans.
