Freeney's Ankle is Actually The Colts' Achilles Heel(Gave myself a pat on the back for that title).

Indianapolis Colts Pro Bowl defensive end Dwight Freeney has a torn ligament in his right ankle that will make it difficult for him to play against the New Orleans Saints in Super Bowl XLIV, a source familiar with the injury told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. The Colts were maintaining Sunday that Freeney has a low ankle sprain and remained questionable, which means he has about a 50-50 chance of playing

Team spokesman Craig Kelley said Sunday night Freeney was being treated in Florida for a basketball-type injury. "He is under the care of our athletic training staff," Kelley said. "Nothing we have seen changes our diagnosis that he is questionable. He has a third-degree, low basketball sprain.

Game over. I wanna crown the Saints champs right now. I don't care if Freeney plays or not. An ankle sprain is an ankle sprain. That's a nagging injury that only gets worse as the game goes on. The Vikings got pretty good pressure on Brees and he still put up over 35 points so imagine what's gonna happen when he picks apart the soft secondary of Indy with nobody diving at his knees. And this isn't New England or New York where you can shadow a couple receivers and be set. Brees' favorite target is the open one. He's got like 5 solid weapons out there. I just hope it's a blood bath.
