No trash talk show in Indy

The Baltimore Ravens talk trash almost as effectively as they play defense, but the Colts wisely won't be drawn into a war of words. This week, Ray Lewis and his linebacker friends talked about punishing Joseph Addai and various other violent things they plan to do to the Colts offense.

The Colts offensive players, as is their personality, kept their cool.
"They like to do a lot of talking," Colts center Jeff Saturday said of the Ravens. "We have two different styles. They've been very good at what they've done for a long time, and so have we. That's not our style. We don't tell people what we do. We just go out and be efficient. Let's be smart at what we do. Let's make them make plays. They pride themselves on that. Let's make them do that. Let's not talk about what we're going to do. Just go out and play good football."

Two players who will be crucial to the Colts' effort this Saturday will be Bob Sanders on defense and Dallas Clark on offense. Both of them tend to let their play do the talking. It might not make for juicy headlines, but with the Colts still trying to break through to the Super Bowl, it's the best strategy.
