the colts

[grimm]

unless the patriots dont make the playoffs.

can you say "choke". Peyton Manning looks lost.

crap, maybe eventually we will get a good playoff game.

This one certainly isn't over........

Mannings early throws were catachable - the receivers just had to get used to the cold.

But, looks like the weather is getting pretty miserable - hate to see a game like that, where the weather & 'the breaks decide the game instead of the players skills.

I think it should be mandatory for the playoffs to be weather free..
indoors or held in areas with good weather
every fucking year someone gets robbed cause of the weather, ( that is not football in the 21st century imho)

Poor Peyton. He's gonna end up beside Marino in a broadcasters seat with no ring...just like Dan.

The Patriots always play better in the second half. Play as hard the last snaop as they do the first snap. Disciplined and well coached.


Man, every year its said, and every year it happens.. teams like the colts, chiefs, etc spend their money on offense, when its the defenses that win the championships.

hes got 1 playmaker on the defensive side of the ball. Its hard to win when you have to abandon the running game.. the PAtriots were lining up with 2 down linemen at times, and still getting pressure on them. And their secondary was disciplined. The DB's stayed in their zones and switched off, did not give up the big play, tackled better than any team ive seen thus far in the playoffs. MAnning had a decent game.. 260 or so yards passing... just no yards after the catch, somedropped balls and forced turnovers. 1 man cannot win a game.

i stand on the opposite side. I think domed stadiums are the downfall of football. When you build your team around an indoor stadium, you dont go all the way. The exception being the Rams, who went all the way because they had homefiled advantage and the superbowl was indoors. a complete anomaly. put them outdoors and they show up like the vikings and colts today.

However... put an outdoor team indoors, and it makes no difference. a level playing field for the most part. they dont lose any advantage. the pats beat them in the warm weather as well.

All of the colts losses were on the road, in outdoor stadiums.

the vikings won one what, 2 games outdoors, to the texans in OT(wait, was the roof closed?), and the lions?

The Rams...at san fran and at seattle were their only outdoor wins... so your dome teams on average, win 2 out of the 8 road games that are not in domed stadiums per year.

and this is not counting the 2 or 3 dome teams that didnt make the playoffs.

The obvious exception would be the falcons, but they are the oddity.. an indoor team that features the run. so they can win on the road, outside.

So we should adapt the NFL to accomodate those teams? what about the other 27 or so teams that do just fine in the regular season and the playoffs and ..win superbowls



Watching a live football game indoors does not compare to watching one outside. The weather has been part of football since the league began. Ill watch a Bengals game outside over a Colts game indoors every time. and ive lived in both cities.

Games in the superdome do not compare to games in outdoor stadiums.

Its a game played outdoors with a funny shaped ball that turns stone in the cold and bounces unpredictably. thats the way it should be.

I also live in new orleans now, and still go home to ohio to watch games. If im in town, ill go to the game, because i love live sports, but if they ever build a new stadium, i hope it is open. and dont give me that heat crap, the florida teams play ourdoors and i guarantee its nice and hot in miami and tampa

[grimm]

one more thing, i went to see a baseball game in houston when i was there for a wedding. and when they closed the roof, it took so much away from the game. It felt like watching baseball in a tin can. no summer breeze, no sun. just boring.

[grimm]

and thatsa all i gots to say 'bout tha-at

[Vick]

I enjoy watching the Colts lose
Only wish it could be the Colts losing the Super Bowl embarrassingly


With Grimm about Football being played ONLY in outdoor stadiums on real grass
