Re: MNF: Colts @ Jaguars
What Cincy needs isn't a couple good players on defense, they need a handful of competent players.
As far as catching up with the Colts/Pats, the best hope is that they take steps back because of cap constraints.
The Colts have all the staples locked up through next season, but then they have a bunch of key guys who will expire after 08 and 09. Bob Sanders, Dallas Clark, Gary Brackett, Jeff Saturday, Kelvin Hayden and Marlin Jackson all will hit FA over that 2 year span if they aren't locked up beforehand.
I'm not as up on the Pats but they have Assante Samuel, Randy Moss,Tedy Bruschi and Junior Seau all hitting FA at the end of the year. I can see Bruschi giving a discount but Samuel and Moss are going to want to get paid.
