Contact (How the Colts got distracted by the herbs & spices in the air in Denver)

"Hey man you smell that? Smell what?"

I was down at the pool hall hustlin’ these boyz Sunday night when I overheard some cats tryin’ to convince this dun to never give up. Of all people, Richard Nixon said, “Never let your head hang down. Never give up and sit down and grieve. Find another way. And don’t pray when it rains if you don’t pray when the sun shines.” Jesse Jackson was sittin’ in the cut keepin’ hope alive when he said, “If you fall behind, run faster. Never surrender, and rise up against the odds.” Then the big homie H. Jackson Brown Jr., the famous author, said, “Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than the one with all the facts.”

Well playboy…the fact is the Indianapolis Colts didn’t get off of the bus until the second half of a two half ball game. However, they never gave up. I know everybody in that locker room is kickin’ themselves this mornin’ because it was like they woke up from a drunkin’ stupor with a second half rally that came up short 31-24 against Peyton Manning and Co.

Let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1^st! You’ve got to give them credit for not completely takin’ a beaten after Peyton looked like Dr. Oz out there in the first half. Ole boy was surgical with the rock as he threw three touchdown passes to tight end Julius Thomas. After seein’ Denver go up 24-0 boyz started orderin’ their last drinks and givin’ pounds to the fellas to go to the crib early.

After all, John Elway had spent more than $100 million on defense and his offensive line in the off-season to get back to the Super Bowl. So no way were the Colts gonna come out of that hole playa. Not with Peyton doin’ open heart surgery on the entire Colts secondary.

The Broncos were a well-oiled machine on third downs in the first half goin’ 6 of 7 even without ole dull Molly poppin’ Wes Welker. Then the Colts finally showed up to the stadium in the second half and held them to 1 of 7 on third downs and it was on and poppin’. The absence of Welker made a difference after all.

Then Andrew Luck leaned the seat back in the Bentley and cracked the window as he went 35 of 53 for 370 yards and 2 touchdowns. Two dull interceptions hurt him but ole boy put in work in that ole thin air.

"Smell this bruh!"

When you look at the stats for the night the Colts looked like world beaters bruh. They had as many first downs as Denver, more passin’ first downs, more pass yards and more total yards. Denver held onto the rock just about five minutes longer and boy did that make a difference down the stretch? Turnovers always come back to bite you square in the pants.

So the net-net here is boyz gotta show up in time for kick off next week. You can’t be out there smellin’ the herbs and spices in the parkin’ lot with the fans and then decide to put your uniform on and play once the contact goes away. Y’all do know that Colorado has legalized in my Big Momma’s voice, “Those funny cigarettes.” Boyz got off of the bus and was like Daaaaaaannnnggg! And that’s the edited version. Yeah, don’t let that get you distracted next time playa! I’m glad that that was the only trip out there for the season. Well… maybe not. Stop me when I start lyin’!

Holla At Ya Boy!
