Here are the final numbers for all 17 games, and after the jump I'll ...

I know its early, but I just can't help myself. We all know Mr. Polian and co. are not the biggest players in free agency. With the Colts cap situation, they simply do not have the luxury to throw away big money like other teams owners, Dan Syder *cough cough*. So, I took the ...

Indy Star: Meeks to interview with Jets on Friday
No word on if he's interviewing for head coach or a different spot. I'm guessing he won't get whatever job he wants if he doesn't like Brett Favre.

For those of you wondering what the Colts cap situation is, take a look at Colts Cap and feel better about your team. The Colts should have roughly $6,000,000 in cap space entering 2009 with the bloated specter that was Corey Simon finally coming off the books. That's right folks! Even though ...
