    The reason they are so good according to this "genius" is that the offense is on the field longer.

    Of course, it has nothing to do with the fact that the Colts now have the fast, opportunistic personnel to run the Dungy Tampa cover2 scheme.

    I don't think it hurts that the Colts' offense has the ball longer. I know last year they had lots of 30, 40 and 50+ yard "strike" plays that must have been just lovely for the defense.

    I agree, though... Personnel and experience this year has more to do with it than anything else.

    I actually agree with Phil this time. I mean we all saw what a good balanced offensive attack can do against them.

    Their front sfour aren't bad with Reagor, Mathis, Freeney but there defensive backs can still get scorched, look at the success Palmer had and look at Chad Johnson, nobody could cover him.
