To me, this is a battle between a Miami team that seems to have 10 different ways to win versus a Colts team that keeps it relatively simple but is really clutch when the result is on the line.
Very difficult to say who will prevail, but I would shade the Fins on the basis that we are incredibly hard to game plan for right now. You have a plan for Reggie and we give it to Thomas, you have a plan for Hartline and we give it to Bess or Moore or Gaffney. Our looks and blitz packages are numerous and they vary from game to game. Guys like Vernon appearing from nowhere. Nolan Carroll goes from target to concern for their OC. You just know that we're going to get a big play from Clay or Shelby or JTrain this weekend, because everyone wants in on the party.
Every time we win its a different route to the line. Indy doesnt even know which QB will start. They're now spending valuable training time worying about the onside kick, the punt block, the field goal protection, batted balls, the coin toss.
Different players stepping up, different packages working, different personnel formations, different trick plays. It is not easy to play the Fins right now and that is our big advantage.
