it'd be hilarious if the Rams won that game.

Colts got straight up Apollo'ed in that game.

/If they die...

I wonder why no-one asks that Jim Caldwell feels his job is on the line? I mean, yeah, Peyton is hurt; but if a whole team is 0-7 any other year; the head coach would be under the microscope hard. Instead, he gets softball questions in post game. Someone needs to ask him directly if he thinks his job is on the line. 62-7 loss? C'Mon!

jake_lex: You know, I don't think this Colts team would be much better with Peyton Manning than they are with him. After all, he can't do much to keep the Saints from hanging 62 points on the board.

Even with him, I can't see this team being much better than 2-5 or 3-4 at this point. I certainly don't think they'd be playoff contenders, but they certainly wouldn't be the sack of shiat that hit the field tonight.

Time of Possession: Colts 21:41
Time of Possession: Saints 38:19

I think if Manning were in there, this stat would be much different, which would have gone a long way toward keeping the game close.

If you can't get first downs and sustain drives, 62-7 is what you end up with.

Too bad Caldwell didn't go for the perfect season a few years ago. He could have been a 16-0 and 0-16 coach.

Manning could keep the offense on the field longer. Might keep the score down to 40-45.

Welcome back Coach Payton.

Serious question - does the complete collapse of the Colts without Manning to lead the offense make him look like a better player?

Sort of a 'man, look at those sucky guys, and look at what Manning did with them!' I don't pay much attention to that team, so what are we really looking at here?

I think it makes the front office look like complete shiat. They should all be fired.

The fact that Manning isn't in the game to pace the Colts' offense is the only reason the Saints scored that many points. I'm hopeful that all the players stay relatively healthy through the season so that they can grow as an organization. Manning will be back for a couple seasons and hopefully guide Andrew Luck with sincere guidance instead of making a show like Favre did with Rogers.

having Drew Brees as your fantasy qb is a good thing :)

No complaints here. I hope karma keeps biting him and the Colts in the ass for the next decade. You don't quit on a perfect season. Ever.

I live in Indy, so obviously I have some built up anger with Caldwell. I expected the Saints to kick the Colts ass badly; but even the players are rumbling about the coaching. Meanwhile Caldwell looks like a deer in the headlights.

I'm drunk and my liver is angry. I watched every snap of this horrid "sporting" event. Why? The Indianapolis Colts are a billowing sky-high column of suck and fire.

I tuned in middle of the 3rd when it was 48-7, thought I was seeing a first down comparison.

I'm taking the Rams and the points

I hadn't seen that one; but thanks. He's such a douche; I bet if someone called for his resignation he'd say, "Ok. My work is done here."

I think Caldwell is the only coach I've seen (in the NFL) that really just stands there. I'm pretty sure he doesn't even coach. Every sideline camera view of coaches across the league show them yelling, calling in plays, talking to players, etc. I'm pretty sure I've never seen Caldwell do anything other than make his stupid face.

When Peyton was playing he would talk to Peyton. I assume Peyton was telling him what to do.

Speaking of which, how about that Jason Campbell fellow! Now there's a guy that could throw.

I have Brees but my friend has Graham and Kasay. I lost by 5

Ugh

Looks like some other highly visited Colts sites from Indy are clamoring for Jim Caldwell's head. (Though politely)

We are visiting the DFW area from St. Louis and attended the Rams/Cowboys game yesterday.

Multiple times people screamed "RAMS SUCK!" at us. Each and every time I responded "Yes, they do."

GimpyNip: Running up the score, classless.

The only thing I learned this week is that Jason Campbell is better than Tom Brady because look at the Raiders without him. When Tom Brady got injured look at the Pats! They won the Supper Bowl.

Matt Cassel.
