Indianapolis Colts safety Melvin Bullitt, Bob Sanders' replacement and the team's special teams captain, is out for the season after breaking a bone in his right shoulder Sunday in Jacksonville, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

Wow, if this is true then the Colts D and special teams probably are in serious trouble. Not sure P. Manning and the offense will be able to score enough points every game to win when the Colts D can't stop the opposing team's offense and force them to punt rather than score points. I am not sure P. Manning can play perfect and score points on essentially every drive like they will have to if the loss of Bullitt makes their Defense even weaker and worse.
What do you think? Do you think this may be the year the Colts fail to make the playoffs?
