Delusions of Grandeur

The 0-4 Colts just don’t get it. “I really do think everybody believes we are a good team,” safety Jason Belser said. “I’m not going to sit here and lie to you and say we don’t have a sense of urgency for a win. That’d be about as big a lie as I’ve ever told in my life.” . . . New England quarterback Drew Bledsoe has completed only 46% of his passes in two games against the Broncos with no touchdowns and one interception. . . . The Jets are favored in Indianapolis, the first time they have been favored on the road since Oct. 30, 1994 against the Colts.

Did you know? The last time New England beat Denver in Denver was 1968.

Sidelight: The Dolphins are struggling to sell out Sunday’s game against the Chiefs, which would make three straight games that have been blacked out locally. So much for Jimmy Johnson’s magnetism.
