I am happy for Williams and Brunell. Good game, although I have to admit I was pulling for the Colts.

Looks like Genuis/Dungy, time to eat some crow. After that it won't be close prediction.

Peyton Manning is still better than Tom Brady, Brady had defenses and was a game manager like a Trent Dilfer for the ravens or Brad Johnson for the Bucs

Errrr, I agree with you on Peyton being better then Brady but calling Brady a game manager is a little silly. The guy holds the record for most TD passes in a single season with 50. Game managers don't do that.

And game managers don't have ridiculous seasons pre-Moss with receivers led by Troy Brown. Brady is that good.

Hail to the Saints (just this one time).

Williams D was nearly perfect I might add. He kept blitzing and while they got burned for the first TD and then for some longer completions the blitzing finally paid off w/ the pick six. It was dialed up beautifully.

The Colts were like the Redskins offense before Sherm Lewis tonight. 17 points.

Garrett Hartley was money for the Saints... long FG's kept them in the game early and that onside kick was awesome.

Hartley didn't kick the onside kick though, thought was Morstead.

By the way, who'd have thunk the Cardinals and Saints, two franchises whose names have been synonymous for decades with incompetence, would be repping the NFC in the SB in back to back years?

Maybe the Skins time is near?

What a game. Told my roomie it'd be 31-24.. thought the Colts would get 1 more

Chevy13 · 02-08-2010, 08:52 AM

I knew there would be atleast one article about Peyton's tendency to "choke" in big games, after he threw that last pick to end the game... I don't really believe all that crap since he has won a SB... Sure it was against Rex Grossman but he won the big game. Most of my buddies think he's still a "choke artist" and I think there's some good arguments to be made for either way

Manning didnt choke, his WRs did. Many times PM delivered great passes in the face of pressure only to have his WRs drop the ball. Garcon & Wayne both dropped big passes that really could have changed the game.
