yes, let's focus on the that Colts game a second......
Manning had just thrown 49 Touchdown passes
Reggie Wayne, Marvin Harrison, and Brandon Stokely EACH had at least 1,000 yards and 10 TDs
The Patriots had to play the game without Richard Seymour and Ty Law. Don't forget Rodney suffered a season ending injury at PIT earlier in the year.
Troy Brown was being used as a DB, and proved to be effective.
That was an amazing team and an amazing game. I hold this game right up there with the win against the Rams. Tedy Bruschi was playing like a man possessed that game.
My memory from that game was wondering how on earth they would stop the Colts (but knowing they somehow would). In pre-game warmup, Vrabel said something about having something different planned and I completely relaxed. Something about the way he said it and the look on his face was just....I knew they'd win.
That was an amazing season. Remember the Rams game with Troy Brown doing.....well, everything? I was so freakin' giddy after that game. My dad had been trying to tell me the Patriots weren't "that good"....too many injuries, and I just responded, "yes, THEY ARE." Boy, did I make him eat crow at the end of the year.
This was the 3 Games to Glory DVD I popped in when I was in labor. My "relaxing" DVD to get me through the pain.
