All of you can join the hating New England party. I've been doing it since this: http://infohost.nmt.edu/~dsandov1/TuckRule.jpg But I also want Manning to win a Super Bowl. Right when Indy won on Saturday, I knew the Patriots were going to win (even put money on them straight up). I knew there was no way Peyton was going to make a Super Bowl without beating New England along the way in the playoffs. I could care less how it happens also. Of course I would like to see Brady stink it up. But if Brady has a huge game, Manning doesn't but the Colts win, that's fine with me. So here's hoping for a Indy victory next Sunday.

Brohm staying at Louisville for senior season. This is big for Louisville. Link Also... Gus Malzahn, the Arkansas O-coordinator who was Mitch Mustain's high school coach, is now gone to Tulsa to be the co-offensive coordinator there. And there is speculation Mustain will follow. Link

Nice throw by Grossman there.

Baltimore was only favored by 3.5 over the Colts and they were at home. That translates into basically a toss up game if it was on a neutral field. The Bears are favored by 9 over Seattle not to mention that they pounded Seattle earlier this year. The Ravens and Colts were the 2 and 3 seeds while the Bears and Seahawks are the 1 and 4 seeds. The only reason the Colts win is considered an upset is because they were playing on the road. If the Bears were on the road they would still be favored over the Seahawks. It's not a double standard and the Ravens are not the biggest disappointment every. Your homerism is horribly clouding your judgment here. Thats not what I'm complaining about, I'm complaining about the fact that if the team has a bye and loses they should get the same treatment the Bears got last year. They were favored by just about as much as the Ravens were in this past game. Well first you said "if the Bears lose" which led me to believe you were talking about this year and not last year. Second, I don't remember everybody calling the Bears " the biggest failures in the universe" after they lost to Carolina last year. But if I was to guess why the Bears loss to the Panthers was a worse loss than the Ravens to the Colts it would be because of one thing: Steve Smith. Everybody knew the only offensive weapon the Panthers had was Steve Smith and that's it. Nothing else. But the Bears didn't do anything to take him out of the game like Seattle did and just let him do whatever he wanted. Maybe its my paranoid crazy homer Bear fandom (quoting soccer) but I honestly do feel like Chicago gets a (at least slightly) worse rap by the media. I don't know why this is. It might because we let them down (somewhat) during the middle of the season after everyone was calling for us to sweep through the NFL and win everything. (Which we basically did anyway but not...impressive enough or something) It's nowhere near as bad as everybody calling Peyton Manning the next Dan Marino as well as his inability to beat Brady and Belichick and win the big one. Or the Colts for not being able to stop the run and choking in the postseason.

Good win for New Orleans. How many people do you think seriously predicted, before the season started, New Orleans to be in the NFC conference championship game? I'm guessing somwhere around 0.

A flinch costs Philly a first down. That's gotta hurt.

That works, eh? That's what I've heard. :wink:

Why do a toss play there? Why not just a normal handoff? You're just trying to run the clock out, just play it safe.

Philly's has to get a stop. NO is doing to them what Indy did to Baltimore.

Should be 1 ET. FOX is stupid.

Bush got HAMMERED.

i don't think ray lewis needs advice from colts fans, he has won a superbowl. something peyton manning will never be do in all likelyhood. He's also got more murders than Manning will have as well.

A great capper to the game. Mathis forcing the fumble.

not to mention there is no way he actually beats them Not necessarily. The game would be in Indy and they would have a good shot of winning the game.

This victory all but ensures a New England victory tomorrow. There is no way Manning won't have to beat Brady and Belichick to reach the Super Bowl.

Huge first down for Indy. This thing is all but over.

Superb catch by Clark there.

PICKED OFF!!

Not sure why they continue to try to hurry up.

Come on Indy.

Baltimore got very lucky there.

Huge run by Rhodes there.

I didn't know this was going to turn into a field goal kicking competition.
