The Colts came out flat last Sunday Night and it showed on the scoreboard as the Bears kicked their ass!  Peyton Manning kept his passes really short in this game as he completed 30 of 49 passes for 257 yards with 1 TD pass.  Joseph Addai had a nightmare game as he carried the ball 12 times for 44 yards (3.7 ypc) and he was tackled in the end zone for a safety.  Reggie Wayne was the leading receiver in this game for the Colts with 10 grabs for 86 yards (8.6 avg) with 1 TD grab.  Marvin Harrison pitched in with 8 catches for 76 yards (9.5 avg) but he lost a fumble that Lance Briggs returned 21 yards for a Bears’ TD.  The Colts finished up this game with only 53 yards rushing on 15 carries (3.5 ypc) and they also completed 30 of 49 passes for 240 yards.

The Colts’ Defense got pushed around all game by the Bears O-Line in the running game.  Linebacker Freddy Keiaho (10 tackles) and safety Bob Sanders (9 tackles) led the way for the Colts on defense.  The Bears rushed for 183 yards on 39 carries (4.7 ypc) and they also completed 13 of 21 passes for 136 yards.  The Colts better get their act together because if they thought Matt Forte was good. wait until this week when they meet up with Adrian Peterson.
