I was not able to attend the noon hour chat with the players today, but Sports Producer Dan Eassa did attend, and I trust him thoroughly on his assessment.
Dan tells me that Quartereback Jeff Garcia was focused and not concerned about Donald Penn taking over for Luke at left tackle. Not because he has full faith in Penn, but because he can't afford to worry about it. He won't allow it creep in to his mind or his preparation for the Indy game.
Earnest Graham seems confident, although he did say he is still "a little rusty on some things.". MEMO to Earnest: Shake the rust off!
Donald Penn- Two words- Dwight Freeney....I don't have to be in the locker room to know Penn is nervous as heck. Expect a tight end to give Penn help on Sunday.
Cato has been a popular guy among the defensive guys. Everyone is picking his brain about the way the Colts attack on offense.
Big key to game: Do not give Colts a short field to play with!!!!!!!!! Field position is criitcal.
