Adam Vinatieri

Adam Vinatieri was outstanding for the Colts last season, which was just what they expected he would be. Vinatieri nailed 89.3% of his field goal attempts and all 38 of his extra points as he finished with 113 points last season. Vinatieri hit 16 of 17 field goal attempts of 39 yards or less and 9 of 11 of 40+ yards which shows what kind of leg he still has. Vinatieri has now played in 173 games in his NFL career and he has scored 1,269 points for an average of 7.3 points per game. Vinatieri has made 288 of 349 (82.5%) of his career field goals and 405 of 412 extra points. Look for him to pad his career numbers this season for the Colts. All the best luck goes out to Adam and the colts!
Peyton Manning is off to another great start this year for the Indianapolis Colts. He has completed 46 of 72 passes already for 600 yards with 4 TD passes and 1 interception so far this season. That makes his QB rating a 102.8. There is no reason to think that Peyton Manning won’t be in the Pro Bowl again this season as long as he stays nice and healthy. Manning finally got the monkey off his back last season in beating the Patriots in the playoffs, and they might be on another collision course to meet up again in the battle for the Super Bowl in the AFC this Year.
