because everyone is due a bad game or 2 but Payten (SP) has made a career of it. In the end Denver beat the Patriots in a good game were they outplayed the patriots in 2 phases of the game. while Pitsburg dismantled the Colts almost from the kickoff and it was only close because of luck.

I have to disagree! The Pats straight up imploded Saturday that was chokefest 06 right there. I see the NFL made a statement today about that wonderful call the ref made yesterday, can you imagine if the Colts went on to win that game? I think the ref's would need kevlar vests on the field every game.

Bingo

And I'm a HUGE Pats fan and was one of the first to give VF grief in his "Steelers Gelling" thread.

Oh... umm... *ahem*
Congrats (begrudgingly) on your team's win, VF

I agree the Pats choked but for the pats to win they had to have a perfect game ON THE ROAD. The colts choked because they were at home and were HEAVY favorites at home. For a team to win on the road against the #1 seed is very tough to do (and the stats prove it)...so if a team fails to win as a #1 seed it is a choke. The pats and Indy are two different issues, the pats had a much higher chance of losing than the colts did.

Well said, Lurch

And let's look ahead to next year.... picture this, Colts v. Pats in the AFC Championship Game, who ya like? For that matter, Colts v. Anyone in the playoffs, who ya like??!!

The Colts are damaged goods, period, end of story. The Pats are the first dynasty of the next era, and it ain't over yet.
