With 3 minutes to go, the Colts down by two scores, I was still nervous as heel thinking, this is going to be the most epic come back and launch Manning in to the Greatest ever.
Even down 14 points with almost no time, I couldn't help but think, oh man, he is still going to get this done.
I know they didn't, but I felt like other fans must have felt throughout 01-07 with Brady having the ball.
I think it's amazing that Manning, down 14 and 3 minutes, I felt he still had a chance.
I, like many of you, is happy that the Colts lost, but I still have to give credit where credit is due, and when another team can make me feel nervous and anxious, feeling as though I'm watching the greatest 4th quarter comeback in the makings... If Wayne doesn't drop that pass, the Saints very well may still have won, but I just was so worried about the upcoming onside kick, I felt if the Colts got it back, with 20 seconds left.. Manning was going to be labeled greatest ever with another Ring.
That's ultimate respect.

On a side note: On the Colts last offensive play of the game. To not take a timeout there was a horrible call. I knwo the point was to save timeouts, but if you don't get the score, 14 timeouts in the pocket is worthless. You only can say those TO's had value if you scored, therefore, you have to take a timeout, and get everyone on the same page, and get set.
I felt the Rushed 4th down was the worst coaching call of the game.
