AFC South Conference - Indianapolis Colts PreviewThe Indianapolis Colts actually peaked to soon last season, as they opened the year at 12-0 and did not have any meaningful games in December. Thus they were in effect coming off of a month-long bye for their playoff encounter with Pittsburgh, and the rustiness showed as they fell quickly behind and were unable to recover.We think that Tony Dungy and the coaching staff learned a valuable lesson there, and we look for the Colts to keep the foot on the gas all year this season, even playing their regulars more late in the season if they clinch early again. Granted they lost Edgerrin James to free agency, but Indianapolis got some great value when running back Joseph Addai dropped to them at the 30th pick of the draft. The Colts know that Addai has more quickness and explosiveness than James, so they really not that eager to meet James' contract demands. We look for Addai to crack the starting lineup early in the year, instantly becoming a bona fide Rookie of the Year candidate. Of course there is absolutely no concern about the passing game, as the Peyton Manning to Marvin Harrison combination is easily the best in football, and Reggie Wayne is also the best second receiver around.

While the Indianapolis offense has always been prolific, it was not until the defense improved last season that this team became a legitimate Super Bowl contender. This unit brings back most of its starters from last year, and it also added two more speedballs in the draft in cornerback Tim Jennings and linebacker Freddie Keiaho. Finally the Colts also signed the best clutch kicker in football in Adam Vinatieri, who unlike the departed Mike Vanderjagt is a proven commodiry in the post-season. THIS is the year that the Indianapolis Colts finally reach the Super Bowl!
