			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whew. That&#8217;s about all you can say after the Colts defeated the <strong>San Francisco 49ers</strong> 18-14 today. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m glad that one is over, and that&#8217;s one I won&#8217;t be going back to watch on the TiVo later tonight. So sorry Colts&#8217; fans, I won&#8217;t be breaking down the tape <strong><a href="http://www.ronjaworski.com/">Ron Jaworski</a></strong>-style this week.</p>
<p>But again, we&#8217;ve gotta remember that it was indeed a win. There are no such thing as style points in the NFL, which was certainly good on this day for the Colts. </p>
<p>It wasn&#8217;t a Manning-like today for <strong>Peyton Manning</strong>, even if he did throw for 347 yards. He overthrew several passes, which is something that we don&#8217;t see on a regular basis from him. Plus, <strong>Joseph Addai</strong> had more touchdown passes than he did, as Addai made the 22-yard pass to <strong>Reggie Wayne</strong> that would put the Colts in front for good. That&#8217;s right. Manning had zero touchdown passes to Addai&#8217;s one. The NFL is an interesting place.</p>
<p>You have to give a lot of credit to the Niner defense, as they seemed to always have an answer for Indy when they were trying to drive for a touchdown. This made <strong>Matt Stover</strong> busy on the day, as he kicked his first four field goals as a Colt. Welcome aboard, Matt. </p>
<p>Of course, he&#8217;s no <strong>Adam Vinatieri</strong>, but if he kicks like he did today, we may just alternate kickers in order to keep them fresh. I&#8217;ll pass the idea on to Coach Caldwell.</p>
<p>All in all, it&#8217;s a good victory for the Colts, especially on a day where they clearly didn&#8217;t have their best stuff. The 49ers aren&#8217;t a bad team, even though that was their third loss in a row. <strong>Frank Gore</strong> made things look a little scary early on, because after he broke that 64-yard run, I thought it may be a long day for Indy. But aside from that run, they held him to just 27 yards on 12 carries. Good job by the rush defense to pick things up in the second half.</p>
<p>So Colts&#8217; fans, now I turn it over to you.</p>
<p>What did you think of today&#8217;s game? Just one game? Or should we be worried?</p>

<p>I decided to start this game day thread so that Colts fans can discuss all the action during today&#8217;s game, and give your feedback before and after the contest in Indianapolis today.</p>
<p>Hopefully we can get some good discussion going, and from now on, come to Naptown&#8217;s Finest for all kinds of game day coverage and interaction. </p>
<p>You can also follow me on Twitter (<a href="http://twitter.com/theblakelovell">theblakelovell</a>), as I&#8217;ll be giving game thoughts on there as well.</p>
<p>So come back in about an hour and half, and we&#8217;ll get Colts-Niners discussion going!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Colts&#8217; fans, while our attention will be turned to Lucas Oil Stadium tomorrow for the game with the Niners, the rest of the AFC South will be in action in other parts of the country. </p>
<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at how those teams could fare this week:</p>
<p><strong>1:00 PM ET (CBS): Houston Texans at Buffalo Bills</strong></p>
<p>The Texans are second in the AFC South right now, and will be heading to Indy next weekend. And while the Bills are atrocious, this one won&#8217;t be easy for the Texans. This is the kind of game the Bills have to win, and they&#8217;ve sort of hit a hot stretch here lately, winning two in a row.</p>
<p>I would expect the Bills to be fired up, and take down a red hot Texans&#8217; team. This won&#8217;t be good for Houston, as they need all the wins they can get in order to keep up with the undefeated Colts.</p>
<p>Prediction: <em>Bills 20, Texans 17</em></p>
<p><strong>4:05 PM ET (CBS): Jacksonville Jaguars at Tennessee Titans</strong></p>
<p>The Jaguars are 3-3 and are technically still in the AFC South race, while the Titans have yet to win a game this season. I&#8217;ll be keeping an eye on this game, but not because I think it&#8217;ll have any impact on the Colts. I&#8217;d just like to see how <strong>Vince Young</strong> will fare in his first start of the season.</p>
<p>Honestly, the Titans have to win sooner or later, right? Jacksonville&#8217;s secondary is horrendous, but I&#8217;m not sure the Titans can take advantage of that. They&#8217;ll still find a way to win though, and might actually see a defensive resurgence&#8230;..at least for one week.</p>
<p>Prediction: <em>Titans 23, Jaguars 13</em></p>
<p>Who you got this week?</p>
