Week 5: Colts 31 Titans 9
Haiku Count: 1399
Mighty have fallen
Winless division rivals
trampled by blue herd.
Musical wideouts
Waiter, dog, stately manor.
Manning finds them all.
Opportunistic
Aggresive but in control
Coyer’s calling card.
Now past Frantic Fran
Only two have more touchdowns
Marino, Favre.
Week 5: BYE
No team can plan for
the best case scenario
Still room to improve.
Bye week, D-line gashed?
Ed Johnson released? Again?
Run D up in smoke?
With Adam hobbled
Colts audition Matt Stover.
Vandy’s number lost.
Rest up, you ponies
Fifteen gruelling weeks stand
‘Tween team and trophy!

Week 4: Colts 34 Seahawks 17
Haiku Count: 1391
Bane to quarterbacks,
Robert Mathis rips ball free
on half of his sacks.
When thrown his first bone
Collie dives like frisbee dog
Over shoulder score!
Out for season?
Freeney quaffs healing potion
Sunday, he breathes fire.
Edge returns a foe
But met with hero’s welcome.
Standing ovation.
Week 5: Colts vs Titans
Four weeks without win
Beware the wounded rival.
Season slips away.
True test of progress
After Dolphin debacle
Can Colts stop Slash, Dash?
Volunteer spirit
Backups step up; Defense depth
Powers plays like vet.
Tennessee two-step.
Manning steps up in pocket,
finds the open man.
