Don't get too overconfident. Yeah I am pretty damn confident that the Pats are on their way to the Super Bowl but you never know. I think it will be a tough game.

Typical. 2 picks, misses 6 of his last 7 passes in Crunch Time and..... it's everyone's fault but Manning's. Gotta love it

Maybe even coach Tony Dungy lost it, for allowing his family situation -- his kid enrolled recently at a Tampa, Fla., high school, triggering speculation that he will resign after this season -- to become a distraction.

Did Doyel really just go there!? Did he just say that by Dungy allowing his kid to enroll in a high school in Tampa, he may have lost this game for his team? That is low, even for this putz.

It's really amazing isn't it?
Throws for 400 yds and 3 TD, but when it counts late in the 4th Quarter, 1 for 7 and a game ending pick.

The Colts wasted a magnificent game by Manning, although missing six of his final seven passes could attract some finger-pointing his way. Still, the overall numbers say he was very good -- 33-for-48 for 402 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions -- and the overall numbers lie. Manning wasn't just very good. A fresh slice of pizza is very good. An afternoon nap is very good. Manning was exceptional, perhaps as exceptional as he has ever been, and he has been one of the most exceptional quarterbacks in NFL history.

As exceptional as he's ever been?

lol, well said. Someone should post this over on the indystar board for laughs.

The Chargers beat up the Colts... Im shocked, I thought the Colts were beyond these games, but guess not... I wanted one more shot at the Colts, just to say we swept them, and because its a great rivalry.. But not sounding ****y, San Diego just punched our ticket to the Super Bowl....The Temp is going to be 18 degree's , I dont know about the wind, so that is still a big if.. But a banged up Rivers, Tomalison, and Gates, is what this Pats D needs, to finish this journey that has started...

Pats vs Pack in the super bowl...

No, no, no. You have it all wrong. Brett Favre IS the greatest team of all time.
