I can't beleive that the Colts came back from that margin.

yeah its pretty pathetic how they blew that lead and gave it away. 😠 Tom Bradys best years are behind him now it appears.It was a given that he would beat The Chargers with Marty coaching that team.Well Marty wasnt the coach this time so his mistakes ended up costing them.That Receiver Caldwell blew this game for the patriots as well.I dont think its too much to ask to catch a pass when your wide open especially since your in the NFL.No wonder the chargers let him go.

Um.... the Colts definitely have more momentum going than the Bears do. This is the Colts first time beating the Patriots in the post season, and it's Peyton's first trip to the superbowl and a shot at a ring. Not to mention the fact that the Colts franchise hasn't been to the superbowl since 1970 (while in Baltimore).

Yeah I thought that was a little bit wierd that he forgot that fact about the colts not being there since 1970 when they were still the baltimore colts-ah the good old days when teams stayed in one city.That fact and the other points you mentioned are also another reason I got to take the colts.

I think momemtum is overrated, unless its during the game. But the Saints, and I would even say the Pats both had more mometum going into last weeks games, and that got them no where.

I dont think Brady's best years are behind him. He is still a young guy.
I just think people overrated him a tad bit and know its showing that he isnt the greatest QB to ever lived. He's just a very good QB, with a great team and one of the best coaches ever.

Yea, I agree. I think Brady geting as far as he did with that recieving core says alot about his talent and leadership, but I'm still glad he lost. 🙂

They didn't really blow it. The Colts simply outplayed them in the second half.

I was sick and tired of the Patriots going and winning it, so I really wanted the Colts and Saints.

Out of the top 5 QB's right now, Brady is one of them, but in the scheme of things in the next 20 years will people consider Brady to be the top 5 ever. No way. I always say that Brady has always played with the best team, and the best coaching staff and if you put him in other teams, I just dont think he would be as good as he is. It's my opinion, but thats what I feel.

Colts put on an awesome game

I use to feel the same exact way about Brady, but after thinking about it more I've been looking at Brady in a new light. Sure he has a good coach, good system, good defense,ect. but you could say that about alot of great QBs. Montana had a great system, coach, hall of fame supporting recievers, as did Terry Bradshaw, but unlike those guys Brady has had to win superbowls with a different and less talented receivers than Bradshaw and Montana each time he won a superbowl, not to mention that he almost got to the Superbowl with this years group of recievers that are far from the likes of a Rice, Clark, or Swann.

People understand that. It's just natural for people to cheer against those that succeed more often than not. When I grew up in the '80's, for example, I hated the 49ers.

Just in case you haven't heard it (1000 times), there is going to be not one, but two African-American coaches in Super Bowl XLI. Which leads me to my next point: I hope there is another African-American Coach in Super Bowl XLII:

Heh...and with that, the Vikings are screwed. So, let Mike Tomlin go, and keep Brad Childress. It's very much a Mora moment.

It doesn't matter whether the two coaches are african-american. What matters is that the game is played by the Colts and Bears. who are coached by two of the games best. It should be noted that Dungy and Smith are from the same clout. Two great and respected defensive coaches who are gonna be around for a long time to come.

But even some of the Colts fans don't like Dungy and want him gone. When we go to the games, I hear him get booed and talked down about a lot!

I am a fan of him. He's done great with the team, and he realizes what the team needs to win.

well, i bet they are loving him now.

Definitly not saying he sucks, dont get me wrong. I just dont think he is the greatest.

Not all of them actually. They were saying stuff when leaving the Dome Sunday night, stuff like, "We could have gotten to Super Bowl a long time ago if it wasn't for Dungy coming in and messing the team up."

No matter what, you can't get all the fans happy. Never, every team has fans that are constantly complaining. Even if Colts were to win Super Bowl (which they will 🙂 ), there will be fans complaining.
