Richie: 7-8 (richie what happend?)

Eh, its preseason-sometimes those are hardewr to pick because of who is played.  I'm not worried.  

But, I did call Buffalo beating Indianapolis dispite BMan maling faces at me.

Lucky guess i really thought Manning would go a bit longer.

I didn't, he doesn't need much preseason play to get ready.  I bet he doesn't even play in the last preseason game.

Manning might not, but the players around him need time to adjust to his play style and the speed and way he runs the plays. Lets face it, he doesnt run the offense in a normal way.

Thats true, but many of them have played with him before and the rest will get their reps in practice scrimages (where the QB can't get hit).  It's too much of a risk to let Manning play more than a series or 2 in a preseason game.  Look what happened to Michael Vick a couple years ago-that ruined the Falcons whole season.  Losing Manning would be worse for the Colts.
