inside Manning's head. I would love to see the Steelers win, but
with Dillon back, this could be interesting.
Ben better have his s*it together for this game.......................
Why is it the "Colts choked"....and not the Pats out played them? Its mind boggling to me that the Patriots get zero respect for all they have done. C...R...A...Z...Y!!!!
they don't have the individual stats, but come on, 2 out of the last 3 championships, they have won 30 of their last 32 games and are 7 and 0 in the playoffs under Tom Brady.

I think people say the Colts choked because they were "expected" to win with that record-setting offense:
- they are the league's top-producing offense in most categories, or at least near the top in most every category
- they averaged over 30 points per game (I think that may be a record or close to it) but only scored 1 FG
- I'm pretty sure they scored more points this season than any other team has in one season (someting like 500+ points)
- they have the passing TD leader (most consecutive 4 TD games, tied for most consecutive 5 TD games) but scored no TDs
- they were favored over a depleted Pats team, depleted on the defensive side of the ball at any rate
I really don't think it's a slam on the Pats D, they played a helluva game and just dominated Manning and their receivers. Holding Manning to 237 yards & no TDs, holding Edge to 69 yards, that's impressive.
While the Pats had the ball for 23 minutes of the second half, the Colts had a similar advantage in the first half yet could not capitalize.
NFL on Sirius and the shows I watched last night were giving props to the Pats D and Belichek. That guy is a genius, no way around it.
