Did Addai's value drop this weekend?

Yeah, the colts proved last year that "defense doesn't win championships".

Their defense picked it up big time in the post season.

Finally, some good news!

From Rotoworld,

DeDe Dorsey has yet to claim the clear-cut No. 2 RB job in Indianapolis.

Undrafted rookie Clifton Dawson has impressed in camp and Kenton Keith has more experience, albeit in the CFL. Dorsey only gained 15 yards on six carries in the preseason opener. It's beginning to look like Joseph Addai will be the lone workhorse in the Colts' backfield this season.

great! Now lets just hope the colts run the ball inside the 10 more this season

Peyton Manning is a TD vulture

The colts D has shown (duing a brief apperance) that they will again be the worst D in football this year. Teams have used the strategy before of trying to keep peyton manning off the field by eating as much clock as possible.

How well did that work out?

Yeah that was quite a long drive. In the Colts defense, they were only playing one regular starter in the secondary, and Dallas' offense is pretty good too.

Their defense is offensive.

Yeah, the colts proved last year that "defense doesn't win championships".

I completely disagree. In fact, I'd say they proved the complete opposite: you need solid play out of your defense at some point if you want to win a Super Bowl. If the Colts' defense hadn't rebounded, they likely would've lost to Baltimore in the divisional game because they only got 261 yards offensively against the Ravens' defense. Thankfully for them, their defense only allowed the Ravens 241 yards. Don't think that if their defense was like it was the last 8 games that Lewis wouldn't have run rampant on them. That was a defense that let Ron Dayne run for 153 yards and 2 TDs.
