d%#*!@t!
I forgot to mention my non-NE thoughts.
* I watched 8-10 of Indy's offensive plays, including the entire first drive. Their RT was getting absolutely schooled and I saw 3 uncalled "Bucking Bronco Blocks" in just those few plays. I call them BBB's because it amounts of a guy holding on to the back of a players jersey and hoping to just last a few seconds. Two of those plays came on the first drive - the first play of the game and the long pass to Harrison that got them inside the 10. I will be *furious* if Indy is able to get away with that crap.
Indy fans always ask why I bring up their blatant holding, just go and watch that first drive and you will see what I mean.
I noticed that too on the RT of Indy. I cannot fathom why they get away with the holding they do. Don't get me wrong, Manning is a great QB, but giving him another 1/2 second because the OL holds is like cheating. I really wish the Refs would make OL holding a focus, like they did with the (usually phantom) PI calls...
