Do you think the Colts will make noise in the playoffs?

As an interested AFC playoff observer (I have Steelers playoff tickets to both Divisional and Championship in hand), what is your opinion of the Colts? They beat the Steelers at the Big Ketchup Bottle, but they have not looked like world beaters against Detroit and Jacksonville. I do think they could win a first round game against a mediocre AFC East or West team, but could they beat Tennessee or Pittsburgh on the road in frigid January?

The big thing with the Colts are having a healthy Sanders and Addai handy. Even though Sanders played last night...he certainly was not at full form. Their rushing defense was putrid last night...and the way Tenn and Pittsburgh like to pound the ball...that will keep Manning off the field.
That being said...you just cannot count out the Colts offense.

ok ok I know im a lil bias being from Indy and not being a big fan of the Steelers....If Big Ben keeps throwing his picks we have a chance and as for the Detriot and Jacksonville game thats been Us all season fighting for the W from behind but if I remember right thats how our season was when we won the Super Bowl.....im just saying and again im a lil bias....but if Dallas keeps having 100+ receiving yards I think we will be fine

Manning has been great over the second half of the season...but I agree with FR, it's going to come down to a healthy running game.
