And I also said, on the game winning drive for the Colts, they'll throw it to Reggie Wayne over the middle, and as he pivots to make a move, Sanders goes to tackle him, the ball pops in the air, Sanders doesn't take him down, a Patriot that's about to snag the ball gets run over by his own man, and the ball lands in Wayne's hands as he's falling down."
I've seen a few people claim that this was one of the key moments of the game, not recovering the Wayne fumble. Remember, though, that this play was also the "Roughing the Passer" penalty, so even had the Patriots recovered a fumble, they wouldn't have retained possession.
