INDIANAPOLIS - Anthony Castonzo has watched the faces come and go along Indianapolis offensive line all season. Jaden Schwartz Jersey .He sees no reason to doubt the replacements now.With three of the teams projected starters on injured reserve, Castonzo is convinced this changing cast can come up with a good enough performance Sunday to send the Colts to the AFC Championship game.Obviously, we would rather have the continuity, Indys starting left tackle said Friday. But the guys who have filled in all season have done a really good job. I dont think theres a guy on this team that we dont trust to play.The theory has been tested repeatedly all season.Indy has plugged 10 linemen into 11 starting combinations and has used the same lineup in back-to-back weeks just two times since Week 4 — Oct. 19 and 26 and Nov. 30 and Dec. 7. With coach Chuck Pagano announcing Friday that everybody was ready to go, it appears it will happen again in Sundays divisional-round game at Denver.Somehow, the Colts (12-5) still managed to win the AFC South title, a wild-card game while limiting opponents to just 27 sacks on Andrew Luck, the lowest of Lucks career.This weekend will be a different challenge.The AFC West champs are heading into the playoffs with a week of rest, the No. 3 overall defence and an intimidating group of pass rushers such as defensive end DeMarcus Ware and outside linebacker Von Miller, who combined for 24 of the Broncos 41 sacks and could cause havoc all day for the Colts makeshift line.Its going to be an all-day job because if you lose to any one of these guys, theyre going to get the quarterback, said Castonzo, the only lineman to start each of the first 17 games.Castonzo understands.A year ago he and right tackle Gosder Cherilus were the pillars on a line that went into the playoffs after using six different starting lineups over the final six weeks of the regular season. Indy followed a wild-card round him over Kansas City with a 43-22 loss at New England in the divisional round.Cherilus wont be around Sunday. He was placed on injured reserve last week with groin, hip and shoulder injuries.Also out will be right guard Hugh Thornton, who went on injured reserve this week with a shoulder injury, and Donald Thomas, who was expected to start at left guard, sustained a season-ending torn right quad in training camp. Thomas absence gave second-round draft pick Jack Mewhort a chance to play, and hes played well in 14 starts -- 13 at left guard and one at right tackle.The Colts also have also tried three centres — A.Q. Shipley for the first four games, Jonotthan Harrison for the next 10 before going with Khaled Holmes for the last three.Now, against a pass rush that could have a big advantage because of crowd noise, Pagano and Luck are hoping the Colts have worked out the kinks.I wish we were talking and it was the seventh or eighth week in a row. Well take two, as much as theyve been through, Pagano said. That lineup last week did a great job. You look at the numbers and the protection, the yards on the ground, the air, all the stuff, so its nice to have a group in back-to-back weeks.Critical, too.Notes: Pagano hasnt said how much action running back Trent Richardson will see this week. He practiced Thursday with the Colts coverage units after logging one offensive play in the win over Cincinnati. ... When receiver Reggie Wayne was asked Friday if it was strange to see Peyton Manning on the other sideline, Wayne responded: Not no more. Its probably more strange seeing all these Papa Johns commercials. John Davidson Jersey .com) - Ryan Miller made 28 saves to record his fifth shutout of the season and second in as many nights as the Vancouver Canucks defeated the Carolina Hurricanes 3-0 on Friday. Tyler Bozak Jersey .Cowboys owner Jerry Jones seems to be leaning the fiscally responsible way.Let me put it like this: Its going to be a challenge, Jones said of re-signing both of Dallas biggest potential free agents. https://www.cheapblues.com/1634z-brian-sutter-jersey-blues.html . He will play 10th-seeded Feliciano Lopez in Sundays final, after the Spanish left-hander defeated Radek Stepanek of the Czech Republic 7-6 (7), 6-4.Clare Daniels will make rugby history this Sunday after being named assistant referee for Exeters Anglo-Welsh Cup clash with Cardiff Blues. Daniels became the first female fourth official in Premiership Rugby history in September when Exeter beat Bristol at Ashton Gate, and she returns to the south-west this weekend.That will make her the first the first female assistant referee in top-level mens rugby, having already set a record for the most caps as a referee in womens Test matches. The former Bath Chronicle sports writer has now been a match official development officer for the RFU for six years, but Daniels concedes she has exceeded even her wildest expectations on the pitch since then.Its of course a privilege to be involved, she said. I am very excited about it, but Ill just approach the game like I would any other fixture - even if it is another first for female officials - because ultimately that doesnt come into the make-up of the game. Jones: England must be ssmart Eddie Jones has compared Englands autumn opener against South Africa to the Rumble in the Jungle. Custom St.Louis Blues Jerseys. It will hopefully be a great occasion on the pitch, and hopefully there can be even more positive side-effects for female officials.Its wonderful that its another first for me; when you start off you just set yourself realistic goals and I remember going along to a local club game and thinking if I ever got good enough to be involved with a fixture at that level that I would be pleased.And now to be involved with a game like this is beyond what I ever dreamt of originally but you want to challenge yourself and be the best you can be.Like a player, youve got to put in the graft, training, and do your homework if youre going to be able to do a good job on the pitch and get these kinds of opportunities.
