610am radio is reporting Dunta Robinson missed the flight and will be suspended/inactive for the game.

Edit: 610am now reporting he may still play...

Well, this helps!

From PFT:

BOB SANDERS INACTIVE FOR COLTS
Posted by Michael David Smith on November 16, 2008, 11:44 a.m.
The Indianapolis Colts’ defense will be missing its best player today against the Houston Texans.

Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that safety Bob Sanders is inactive today.

Sanders was listed as questionable with a knee injury, and he didn’t practice this week. But it still comes as a bit of a surprise that he won’t be able to play, as he had started each of the last two games, wins over the Patriots and Steelers.

Sanders has started four games this season. Today’s game will be the sixth game he’s missed.

I'm having a hard time getting excited about this game. And it will probably be that way for the rest of the games as well. Sad, really.

Time to give the Colts the thrashing they so richly deserve....

Texans receive the opening kickoff and matriculate right down the field. Slaton with a couple of good runs. 3rd and 1 at the 10 yd line - pass fails so Texans settle for the FG.

Texans 3, Colts 0

Great decision Kubiak - I'm sure we're gonna beat Peyton scoring FGs.
