Man, Bree's missed that sure TD.

I find the Colts completely unobjectionable. Luck, Pagano, and Grigson all seem like decent guys, certainly in comparison with Manning, Dungy, and Polian. Even Irsay made some remarks disparaging Manning this year. I'm all good with these guys.

The problem is the Colts were led by that absolute crud of a GM/human for so long......the franchise has no karma basis for being so fortunate as to have Luck fall in their lap.

It is their fans I can't stand with them being good and the Patriots being evil. Lots of churchy folks there I have seen who are really very passive aggressive people who are just bad.

The Colts just mounted one of the greatest comebacks in playoff history. They scored over 36 in the second half of this game to a team that was considered one of the better defenses in the league. You REALLY have to just dislike Luck to downplay what transpired -- there is no factual basis otherwise.

I don't dislike Luck.

As for facts, so it wasn't a fact that the Chiefs didn't have tons of injuries in this game where they lost a lot of key personnel?

And if you want deal with facts, stop saying the Chiefs are one of the better defenses in the NFL. Their defense has been average for the last few months.

Yes, it is an amazing comeback, but let's not pretend it wasn't in part because the Colts were able to take advantage of key injuries to the Chiefs. I can't remember seeing a team lose so many key members of their team in a single playoff game.

Their suck for Luck campaign should have cost them. The first 5 or 10 teams in the draft should have a lottery.

LOL Brees and Payton trying to act smart

San Diego showed in the regular season that they know how to ground Manning.

SD is a jekyll and hyde team. Cant really trust them . Plus welker being out in that game was a huge factor. We will see how much a difference he makes once he comes back.

Not unless manning throws a duck over the middle and gets Wes killed again.

It was a good call to try & draw them offside. Penalty didn't mean anything to them

They're the next best QB-Coach duo in the NFL after Brady & Bill

 

[RobertWeathers]

Had Indy over KC but not like that!

Philly should win tonight....

 

[Bhelmet]

Not about hating Luck - but I would like to see him survive another 3-INT game in these playoffs. Against Denver, perhaps, but that it is it - AFC or NFC.

I don't think Welker being out is as big of a factor as you make it. The Broncos offense didn't miss a beat other weeks without him.

I do agree the Chargers are Jeckyl and Hyde. They should have lost to the Chiefs' B squad last week.

No question in my mind that they played and coached games to purposely Suck for Luck. The fan base should be ashamed. Every time I see Luck in a Colt helmet, the first thing I think of is the real reason why he is there. League should have reviewed all of their game film before allowing that crap to take place that we all had to witness.

they played oakland and houston. Even vs houston they struggled in the 1st half. Welker is manning safety outlet especially in colder weather when he cant really let it rip. more reliable than anyone he has and makes a big difference. not sure if it will enough if they cant block mathis and go, but I certainly feel colts have as good a chance vs them as a SD team playing as well as it is capable would have.

I think the Colts would have lost tonight if the Chiefs had Jamaal Charles to run the ball protecting a three score lead. I don't think he would have overcome those three picks if the Chiefs could have run the ball and ate up clock time.

The Pats, San Diego, and Bengals can certainly ground and pound with a three score lead. Not as sure about the Broncos. Moreno has had a good year, but that is because teams play the Broncos almost exclusively in sub packages.

Did they just show a close up of the Saint's play sheet? Or did my eyes deceive me?

The Irsay family are the kings of Jerks. The most objectionable boobs of all time.

Houston has a very good defense. Just no offense.

 

[DefenseRules]

Philly's special teams coach will yell at someone for that play.

Jim Irsay is definitely annoying, I'd hate to have to play or work for him. All I would be thinking is "SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP ALREADY!"
