Either way, whichever wide receiver Revis ends up shadowing is in-line for a long day (and a must-avoid for any fantasy football players out there).

“We’ve been in games before where we haven’t been able to run, but we’ve found a way to pull a victory out”.
With starter Greg Toler (neck) out, prized rookie D’Joun Smith (knee) out eight weeks on injured reserve, and both Darius Butler (hip) missing practice this week, the Colts secondary has just three healthy bodies beyond Vontae Davis: Sheldon Price, Jalil Brown and Eric Patterson, elevated this week from the practice squad. As for Ryan Fitzpatrick, and what he needs to do the philosophy should stay the same.
Thanks to DIRECTV, The Daily’s Michael Peterson had a chance to catch up with Andrew Luck and discuss his time in the National Football League and his reflections on Stanford.
With a motley offense compiled by a motley coach, it was easy to write off the Bills as a freak show with a good defense.
A surprisingly good performance from the young Colts defensive line was one of the highlights of the defeat at the hands of the Bills, and a repeat is needed in the Monday night matchup with the Jets. Luck threw two interceptions and was hurried throughout the game. Hilton is one of Andrew Luck’s favorite weapons and it would be a big blow to the Colts’ offense if the bruised knee kept him out. But the return game consistently floundered, putting the Colts in awful field position.
“We understand what has to be done”, kicker Adam Vinatieri said. They can’t allow Luck to stop up in the pocket, or roll out often.
Back in 2012, the owner, his new GM and new head coach were a tight trio as Pagano waged his very public battle with leukemia and then offensive coordinator Bruce Arians took over the team that rallied around the “Chuckstrong” theme in support of their head coach (and surprisingly made the playoffs). With either a hurt Hilton or no Hilton there is no excuse for our corners no matter what. The Colts were in trouble all game however this is not a great sign that Johnson struggled so mightily. To start off, the Colts have one of the best Kickers of this era in Adam Vinatieri.
Donte Moncrief, in his second season with the Colts, had a mishap on special teams, too. Luck is the Colts’ cornerstone and could play his entire career in Indianapolis. You guys saw the playmaking ability.
“It makes me feel good and it just lets me know that they’re seeing the work that I’m putting in”, Ivory said.
Ask Revis how he might be used on Monday night and he chuckles, “I can’t tell you that”. Moncrief is a big physical returner with breakaway sped, and an arsenal of moves making him a very unsafe returner. Our Punt Returner is Jeremy Kerley as most of you probably know.
That’s what he did at Stanford, leading the Cardinal, which during the two seasons prior to his arrival had gone 5-7 and 4-8, to the Sun, Orange and Fiesta Bowls. Seven is obviously way better than three and can really turn a game around. And we are predicting a similar bounce back for Indianapolis on Monday night.

Ivory ran for 91 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries in the season-opening win over Cleveland last Sunday. He can just call the Indianapolis Colts. But if you’re a handicapper, you have to face the fact that in 10 of 16 games, Indianapolis is outside their division and they’ve proven to be a bad bet.
