So we are another week in the top 5 of NFL defenses, at least. In the past we have needed Peyton to have a average game, or Luck to have a good game in order to win.
We are not asking Philip Rivers to do that. Just don't turn the ball over. Get some first downs and let the rest follow.

I think it was a good team win. Some games are going to be like this. They lost their premier defensive player (Leonard) and still won.
I think back to the 06 playoffs and I know everyone thinks about the win in the AFC Title game, but that divisional round against Baltimore was arguably one of the toughest wins I've ever seen Indianapolis obtain.
Sometimes that's what it takes. I like what I saw yesterday.
