Colts-Patriots

I've probably seen this game go through my head a thousand times this year and I get a different outcome each time. The Pats have the homefield, they are winners, they have Brady, they have the coaching, but I just can't see how they are going to stop Manning especially without Ty Law. You would think that the Pats would be able to grind out Dillon to run clock and keep the ball out of Manning's hands but the Colts D is so bad they might just let Dillon run by them and right into the endzone. I don't see how this doesn't turn into a shootout and that would probably mean that the team with the ball last is going to pull this out.

I keep thinking Colts win 34-31 on a late field goal by Vanderjat after Manning drives them down the field, but I'm not too confident about it. I'm looking forward to this game more than any playoff game in quite some time. I can't wait.

I agree this is a must see game for a lot of people. I am having the same problem with the flip flopping.

On one hand The Patriots don't have thier top two corners, but they have the "Coach" that seems to always get in Mannings head somehow.

Hopefully its really cold. That can only help the Patriots.

I am also happy that the Colts built up their confidence by playing Denver last week. I got news for the Colts, this team is not the Broncos. Get ready to get smacked in the mouth.

The road to Jacksonville must go through New England first. Good Luck Manning !!

Can the Colts realistically be held under 27 points in this game though? I don't think so. The Pats are gonna have to score and score and score, which they of course might just do against that Indy D. I really can't wait to see this game.

I really cant wait to see this game. This is bigger than the Super Bowl for me

patriots will pull it off somehow.

Dr. Giganto

I just read that the Patriots groundskeepers are not covering the field despite all the rain this week, so that it will slow down the Colts recievers

Now thats some home-field advantage right there

Mr. Hyde

lol that's a pretty good idea.

Yeah, this game will certainly be better than the Superbowl.

I hope the Patroits lose it in a close one. They are a boring team to watch and it would be great to see the Colts close up a great year with a Superbowl win.

Its funny. Listening to all the national media and general consensus from the rest of the country, it seems as if the Patriots may as well not show up Sunday because they have already lost this game.

WE ARE THE SUPERBOWL F'N CHAMPIONS !!!!!

Sure, Peyton Manning has improved since last year and with the emergence of Reggie Wayne and The Stoker that they have an amazing offense. But there is one reason why they WILL NOT win this game Sunday.

The 29th overall ranked defense in the league. People keep talking about the depleted DB's, but the fact of the matter is we only lost 1 game without Ty Law and Tyrone Poole this year.

Has anyone mentioned the Patriots offense? They arent exactly chopped liver you know.

Look for Cory Dillon to run all over Indy come Sunday as well as some big plays from the likes of Deion Branch and Dan Graham.

The Patriots havent lost at Gillette Stadium in over 2 seasons.

Again Indy, to be the man, you have to beat the man. Too bad for you, it wont be this year.

I felt the same way about the Yankees...
