The Colts just don't have their timing down right now on their offensive line. Too many newbies are causing too many breakdowns in communication and this is a team that relies heavily on the perfect execution of zone schemes for them to get their running game in line, which then allows Manning all day in the pocket when he needs it. Addai just is not a power runner, and with the lack of directional pull his line used to give him, Atlanta's defensive front just might be able to halt that part of the offense. If so, their speed will allow them to chase Manning out of his comfort zone and, with double coverage on Reggie Wayne, he'll have to rely on Dallas Clark tp have a big day. Clark is tough, but he has bad dropsies, and he is not all the healthy yet, either. Upset of the week.
