Statement Game


The Colts entered Sunday's game at home against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers without six of their startes. Marvin Harrison. Joshep Addai, and Bob Sanders the most notable. However the Colts continued with thier "next man up" mentality and did not stumble without their key players. Rookies Athonaly Gonzalez and Kenton Keith (4 year CFL player) proved their worth and that they are going to be successful in this league on Sunday. Both had break out games, Gonzalez with seven catches and Keith rushed for 121 yards two touchdowns. The defense played another great game. They allowed their speed to shut down Tampa's running attack allowing only 17 total rushing yards. Jeff Garcia completed a lot of passes but all were short gaines and the Buc's recievers rarley got behind the colts definse. All in all it was a total team effort and a gratifing one. The colts will have their bye week next week which will give them a chance to get healthy.
