Default Can you Imagine the Ratings If/When We Play the Colts Again?

Can you just fathom the ratings if and when we meet the Colts again this year, in either a divisional playoff, or in the AFC Championship. Not only will it be THE most watched football game, possibly in history, but it may be in the top 3 of most watched television EVENTS in history. I mean, its all set up for that, especially after we knock New Orleans from the rank of undefeateds.

Talk about drama. Its kind of the Patriots/Giants regular season vs. playoff games in reverse, where this year we're the Giants of '07, and the Colts are the Patriots of '07. We know how that one ended.

Think about it. Is it fate? Will we arrive in Indy wearing black? Too, too many parallels to ignore.

If it is a Pats/Colts AFCCG, it will be bigger than the Super Bowl.

I'm with you. That's what I'm talking about, and CBS will absolutely love it.

I can imagine the pregame hype, and the pregame promos on CBS before the game, and the intro.

Forget about that for now though. Time to smoke the Jest.

No question.

Pats/Colts AFCCC 2007- 28.1 share
Bears/Colts SB 2007-32.1 share (highest-rated SB ever at the time)

the thing is we might not play them in the AFCCG, it could be in the divisional if we end up as the 4th seed. We would have to overtake denver and cincy whom we are currently behind in the seedings.
