It's go time

The NFL season launched with a bang last night in Indianapolis where the Colts layed a whuppin' on the Saints. Every knew that, same as always, the Colts would be able to put points up on the board and the question was, same as always, would their defence be able to contain their opponents. Well, fans of the Colts should be quite splendidly surprised with their D's performance after their 41-10 win.

Even after losing some key personnel, the Colts looked same as always running their opponent out of their building. Not to mention that their defence held the Saints offense, Reggie Bush, Drew Brees et al, to only a field goal is saying something special. That's right, the only touchdown that the Saints could muster was off of a fumble recovery.

And, for the record, while I picked the Colts to win last night, both the Intern and the Designer went with "America's team" to win. And can we please remove that nickname from the Saints? I'm totally for giving that moniker to the Atlanta Falcons this year after what they endure because of the Michael Vick / dog-fighting saga.
