They've never beaten the Pats without them. Write this down. If the Pats happen to meet them again in the po's, in Indy, there will be more.
This penalty was definitely the herald for the way the rest of the game would play out. I'm not even shocked anymore when the Colts offense gets important penalties in crunch time... the league's rules have been tweaked to the point where they want the offenses to have every chance to win the game (unless you're going for it on 4th and 2 and catch the ball 3 yards downfield, in which case you'll get nothing and like it.)

It is in there... I agree with you that it was a bad call, however... I heard a sports talk radio reporter say that these penalties are called every week. The rule just needs to be adjusted or another tool that takes the human element out of the decision. Colts will always get this call for them, ever since the 2003 AFC game.
