News of the week put off the weekly smorgasbord of game-review observations. Here goes: * But of course, T.J. Rushing gets hit at the 20 on the opening kickoff. This record keeps skipping.

So, as the headline suggests, let me remind Colts fans that their team is hurting a bit, injury wise, more so than I thought. Or maybe...
