Is it greedy to want 4 rings :D ?

Re: COLTS WIN
 

Here's something I'm confused about. All the news networks are calling this a "historic superbowl" because there are 2 black coaches. Everyone that was watching the game at our dorm was like :confused:. What does it matter if they're black or white? They're both really great coaches. Why are news networks making such a big deal out of it? It's the media that keeps racism an issue today...*sigh*

Re: COLTS WIN
 

To say that The Colts aren't a good team is ridiculous. They made it happen when it counted last night and that's all that will be remembered. The Patriots have had their rings, it's time for someone else to have a chance and no one deserves it more than coach Dungy and his team. The Colts haven't been to a super bowl ever since they got to Indy, it's our time now. Last night's playoff game was one of the most exciting second halves of football I have seen in quite some time.

lol @ Belichick, he must be so mad.

Him and Parcells wil be crying together.

Re: COLTS WIN
 

Being a Die-hard New England fan, I was left after the game ended feeling drained. It was a fantastic game, and to keep the game within 4 points at the end was pretty $@#$@#$@#$@# commendable. Let me point out a few things for those who think NE is a pushover.

A, The Colts hadn't scored a TOUCHDOWN in almost two games until the second half of the game last night, they had relied on Vinatieri's kicks to win theire games for them. Some offense...

B, The pats had played San Diego, a much more formiddable opponent than the Ravens to the Colts. Thus leaving NE utterly exhausted after the win last week. Even Belichick had said "That game wiped us out".

C, Upon arriving in Indy earlier in the week, half of the pats were suffering from a case of the flu. Playing at half capacity and still losing within 4 pts. is nothing short of impressive to overcome that adversity.

D, The pats had a solid blanket over the Colts recievers all game (yes, even in the second half). Dwight Freeny? who? he never got close, nor did Bob Sanders the supposubly "games X factor".

Courtesy of ESPN...
The best reciever all game was a Tight End.
D. Clark 6/137
R. Wayne 5/68
M. Harrison 4/41
D. Rhodes 4/38
B. Fletcher 1/32
A. Moorehead 3/23
B. Utecht 1/5
J. Addai 2/4
D. Klecko 1/1

I'm sorry, but keeping Reggie Wayne, Marvin Harrison, AND Dominique Rhodes to only a combined 147 of total offense between the three is pretty commendable to the pats' secondary. How many big plays did Assante Samuel knock away? And what about that block in the end of the endzone? Are we still crap? Because the stats don't lie.

Like Mike said, the Colts did not deserve this win, and they can ONLY thank homefield advantage for this win. I've got a sour taste in my mouth.

Re: COLTS WIN
 

THAT'S RIGHT! THEY EARNED IT! PATS BLEW IT!

Re: COLTS WIN
 

Quoted for truth.

The Colts defense is what stepped it up during the previous two games. We still won the games, regardless of what you say, a win is a win my friend. The Colts defense hasn't let anyone rush over 100 yards during the playoffs, including last night. While Freeny's sack numbers are low, you have to be insane to not realize the pressure he brings every play.

You talk about being ill and not able to play? That's how the Colt's defense was for most of the regular season - many of our guys were injured. There are no excuses - play like a champ.

And what's your problem with Dallas Clark having the most receiving yards? Clark is an excellent player, my favorite in fact. Blame your team for not covering him well enough. Don't be jealous over the fact that we have so many amazing receivers :) The Patriots might have stopped some of our guys, but they can't stop them all.

I'll just say there's probably not another sports team I loathe more than the Patriots, mainly because of their coach and their attitude. There's not a nicer coach than Tony Dungy and he deserves it.

Sorry Pats, you've had your chance, better luck next year.

Re: COLTS WIN
 

yeah, he just made the end of game play. nothing else. :p


I just like to argue. My team didn't even make it into the playoffs.

Re: COLTS WIN
 

No joke. When a team is down 6 to 21 at the end of the half, and comes back to win, you can not tell me that they didn't deserve it. Those guys played their hearts out and the Patriots blew it, simple as that.

Re: COLTS WIN
 

Alex, It was #23 Marlin Jackson who Int'd the final pass by Tom Brady.

We're all free to disagree, and I'm not insulting or stating that I hate Indy, YES they played a good SECOND HALF. Meh, it's only a stupid game.

Re: COLTS WIN
 

He was referring to the play on the patriots second to last drive. I wish I could remember the time. Bob Sanders cut of a 7-10 yard play that would have given the Patriots the first down. He almost intercepted it, but dropped it as he fell to the ground.

Personally, I don't think that either team played at the peak level they could have played, but conversely, these are the two best teams in the AFC, so you need to expect that both the defence and the offense of both teams will make plays and shut down what has worked for the team in every other game this year.

Re: COLTS WIN
 

I am just happy to say that as a Giants fan living in New England, I dont have to suffer through the Patriots winning another superbowl.

Go Bears! (Or Colts, I dont really care)

Re: COLTS WIN
 

I wasn't able to watch the first half of play, but even if the Pats had won, (and I'm glad they didn't) it was the most exciting two quarters of football I personally have ever seen.

On another note, I'm calling Superbowl XLI the I-65 bowl. (it runs from Chicago, through Indianapolis, all the way to Miami)

Re: COLTS WIN
 

wow!!! Bill Parcells Retires from Cowboys... Is belchick next? :p

Re: COLTS WIN
 

exactly!!! the colts r terrible. to be quite honest these r probably a few of the worst teams in the super bowl...ever. one team has no offense the other no defense. defense wins championships. if the bears can run the ball well, which can be done easily on the colts (i.e. jacksonville's 375yd rushing game just a month or so ago) and stop addai n rhodes, manning wont be able to over come the lack of a running game. and grossman needs to turn the ball over less than 2 times. if that happens bears will win because the colts r the softest team in the nfl. period
