colts 2nd half td was garbage time. It was 34-21 when they started the drive and they had 7 drives up until that point where their offense did jackshit. Not to mention even with them scoring that td they never got the ball back so they were never in a position to tie the game before it was over.

Sorry but I can't agree with this side of the argument. What you guys are saying is, for example, in our game against the Browns 2 years ago... if we didn't recover the last onside kick, the last TD we scored would be classified as 'garbage time'? I totally disagree.

bills and jets were not garbabe time scores. steelers, jaguars(both tds), colts and redskins all where garbage time.

Whether they were garbage time or not, the Pats treated them like garbage time TDs. The Pats got soft on defense in these situations because they were protecting a lead and were more concerned with eating up clock than a fast stop. Wasn't their typical defense.
 
Ward diving at more knees. Shocking!
 
What was that? Big 3rd down here
 
Luck had the RB open for the easy first down : /
 
Sweet 3rd and 2 call, Indy.
 
GOAT!!!!!!
 
hey dolts if there was ever time you were going to play defense it would be now
 
Playing to lose by 4.

Garbage time means that barring some kind of fluke you are likely to win. It doesn't mean that there is no chance of winning. Until the clock goes to 0, there is almost always a chance of a fluke comeback.

The Colts scored a TD and then needed to recover the onside kick, march down the field in little over a minute with no time outs, and then convert the two point conversion. It most likely never going to happen. There was like a 3% chance of that happening. That is garbage time.

Yea...but....but...but they gave up a TD.
 
Great kick, it's too bad for the Colts you only need 3 or 4 PI calls to move down a field.
 
i think indy will have a soul crushing turover or manning will lead them on a last min drive to win. I can see this
