It certainly affected the outcome of the season more.

Deus Irae

Collusion, if that is what occurred, is against the rules.

Uh, this is a very big deal. This is collusion and collusion with serious playoff implications. If true, it draws into question if the Colts threw the game as a favor to the Titans.

Goodell, Polian and Dungy might want to let this one go disappear, but you better believe the Browns aren't going to let it.

Not really.

Seeing how much Tony Dungy spoke about how proud he was to be in a division that sent three teams to the playoffs, and the obvious digs against the Pats and the AFC East, this raises the possibility that the Colts were not merely resting their starters so they would be fresh for the playoffs and to give other players experience, but in fact wanted the Titans to win.

If TD was in fact trying to win the game with the 2nd and 3rd string, then this is a lot about nothing. But if TD in fact wanted the Titans to win, then this is much bigger than "camera-gate."

It is too early for me to say that Dungy was in fact corrupting the game, but between his post-game interview, this story, and the way the game was played it is starting to look that way, and investigation should be made to determine if the Colts threw the game.

If this is indeed true, then I would equate it to the level of the NBA ref that was betting on games in which he was working.

Double G

This is the same franchise that when in Baltimore in 1977 threw the last game of the year vs the pitiful Lions which kept the Patriots out of the playoffs; a punt got "blocked" in the closing minutes of the game which led to the winning score.

Old habits die hard...............

What's the big deal?

We blatantly THREW the Miami game last year to get a better matchup. Who's to say that the Dolts don't have a strategic reason to let Tenn win?

Hypocritical to call them out when it's done all the time.

The fact that they had an agreement is the huge

Tweaking your matchup is entirely different than deciding who makes the playoffs - especially when both parties involved are on the competition committee.

If you're talking the 21-0 game, we flat-out got whipped.
