Id have to think that with all luck's arm injuries that playing outside a dome is not going to be easy. Let's hope it's cold and windy on Sunday. [Reply]

Wind would favor Indy because they can actually run the ball
Mahomes arm is superior to Luck, whether it be in a dome or in Antarctica [Reply]

If we hang 50 on them to their 14, so be it, it's playoff time.
Yes on putting our foot on their throats. If the Colts go to extreme lengths like Seattle did in terms of deep coverage, then sure... Maybe we stick it to them with the short game. I preferred our second half in Seattle even more where we used more of a high tempo offense to keep Seattle on their heels, which opened us up for more aggressive playcalling. I want our offense to dictate the terms, not take what they're given. Arguably our short game offense would have worked in Seattle if we kept at it and didn't fumble the ball away. But as good as we were with that approach, it didn't feel like our offense. If the Colts show lots of cover 2, mahomes can carve that up with aggressive passes. [Reply]
This gives me even more confidence in this game, and I was feeling pretty damn good about it already.
When you think of those splits + our own defensive home/away splits + Mahomes + the potential for Berry/LDT/Watkins/Ware's returning, you have to feel good going into this game. [Reply]

Mahomes' arm is wind proof. Barely anything in kc changes if it's cold and windy. Indys run game doesn't get stronger if it's cold and windy, meanwhile their passing game (their best strength) gets worse. Id say that's a big net negative for indy. [Reply]
