Haiku Count: 1447

Sign says, “Play 60.”
Texans celebrate at half
Colts at end of game. |
|
Up two scores early
Against Colts no lead is safe
They finish. They close. |
Big hit. Snot-knocker!
Texans thump chests, pose for crowd.
Colts quick snap; big play. |
|
Safety more than name
Errant fluttering pass nabbed
Antoine Bethea. |
Week 13: Colts vs Titans
|
|
|
Titanic savior?
Did Young earn five game win streak
or defense, run game? |
|
Runaway freight train
Engine stoked, full head of steam
Johnson blasts through line. |
Seems crazy, yes, but
Best way to contain Vince Young
is to make him pass. |
|
TItans haven’t lost
Since coach donned Manning’s jersey.
Sunday, it comes off. |

Missing 3 DBs
Rookies asked to learn on job
and they deliver! |
|
So much for pitch count.
Forty first half pass attempts!
Jello-armed Manning |
Red flag at goalline
Powers hops in bounds, grabs ball.
Touchback at twenty. |
|
Channeling Norwood
Clutch kick pushed wide left by Brown
Team of cows; one goat. |
| Week 10: Colts vs Patriots |

|
Both teams once doormats
Now nation tunes in to see
Football’s best rivals. |

If anyone can,
Brady will expose defense
Inexperience. |
Gone are the days of
Pats intimidation. fear
Colts know they can win. |

Footsteps of Giants. |

|
|
Haiku Count: 1415
|
When is stretch not stretch?
When Addai hurls ball skyward
Wayne lays out for score! |
|
Gashed and Gored early
Defense stiffens, gives offense
time to get on track. |
Forget iPhone,
Colts gadget lust takes new form
Halfback option pass. |
|
Niners plan: take out
short, mid-routes; leave Colts big plays.
Gamble nearly worked. |
Week 9: Colts vs Texans
|
|
|
Perfect record, bah!
Texans can close the gap with
Two November wins. |
|
Bright, clear Autumn day
Open roof gives new excuse
Sun was in my eyes. |
Swine flu? That’s nothing.
Houston backs suffer from case
of fumble-itis. |
|
Two stats intertwined
The less Colts run per carry,
the more Manning’s sacked. |
