The Battle Bar, Our Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy

so true. I hate the decision we made with not trying to score before the half. Hated it then. Hate it now. We score there, we have a 17-3 halftime lead, not 10-6.

The problem with Manning and the Colts when they're winning is, they stop playing to win and start playing not to lose. I'm excited for their starters to be back next year. With Sanders and Gonzalez back, they should have a nightmare team. But this is just painful. Now people are going to say Brees is better than Manning. The Colts need some ugrades on defense, Sanders and Freeney can't be the only ones.

i wonder how much of it was freeney being hurt. Brees had all day over and over and over again. That much time, anybody could beat us.

That's true. The Freeney sack was the only time they even came CLOSE to hurrying Brees. He had all day to throw it while Manning was rushed. The Colts defense has always been its Achilles Heel but damn, it manifested itself today.

we stuffed the run. THAT was always the problem. But ultimately, it comes down to the offense. We needed 32 points to win. We left that many on the field.

i am thoroughly enjoying watching you two despair 😛

then suck it.

The Colts stuffing the run works against the Jets who are a running team. What in the hell kind of difference will it make against the league's #1 passing team? They didn't even come close to stopping them. Once again, I can't believe the Vikings played so much better against the Saints.

the celebration is still going on in the front room of my house 😛 apparently its really exciting to see the colts get stomped so badly!

i personally dont even know who "the colts" are though... i dont watch american football 😐

we started so good, then quit. Frustrating. That 10-0 lead. Honestly, it all turned on Garcon dropping that pass in the 2nd quarter.

Yea, that Garcon pass really dicked the game up. But I have to say, how could the Colts not be prepared for something like an onside kick? I admit it was a ridiculously gutsy call that could have cost the Saints the game, but in the Super Bowl you have to be prepared for all of that. Again, the coaching disappointed me.

Thane is beast. Miranda is beast.

I am beast.

I hate you Peyton Manning.
