Not true, being from Indiana I get to follow the Colts very closely. For awhile this year, the colts held the #2 defense spot behind Tony Dungee's former team, the Bucs. The Colts have a decent defense, but are horrible against the run. Tony Dungee is a mastermind of defense, but not a Mireille maker. It took him a few years to bring the Bucs defense up to the level they are at now. On offense, the Colts have a young one named James Mungro who single handedly won the game against the Eagles during Ederin James's injury time. James really does not want to stay in Indianapolis, so if they can get rid of him and bring in some defensive back, that should balance it out. The rest of the offense is good and the line is not bad. The bad play calling was more of a bad transition to the new coach. The colts have one of the highest rated QB's in being Peyton Manning, and Marvin Harrison, who was without a doubt the best receiver in the league this year and will remain as the top receiver for years to come.
This year was a transition year of a new head coach for Indianapolis. Once they get used to the new coach look for them to be a dangerous opponent and a Super Bowl Quality team.
Oh
the point of the thread... Bucs will win. Raiders are known to choke under pressure (coughPatriotscough)
