| (Sports Network) - With his team within a half-game of first place and surging into overtime against a primary NFC South foe, Atlanta Falcons head coach Mike Smith decided last week to stiffen his resolve, flex his sideline muscle and go for it on a fourth-and-short deep in his own territory. A week later, he's still trying to get away from the fallout as the Falcons prepare for a Sunday home date with the visiting Tennessee Titans from the Georgia Dome. So close...but yet so far.

| save the Colts now. Not only is Indianapolis waiting for its franchise quarterback to recover from multiple neck surgeries, but it is still waiting to win its first game of the season. The Colts fell to 0-9 with Sunday's lopsided loss to the Atlanta Falcons. With the 31-7 defeat, the Colts are off to their worst start since going 0-10 in 1997. That is a drastic turn for a club that won its first 14 games of the 2009 season. Is there now any doubt how much Manning means to the club's offense? Wi |
