Big game this Sunday night between 2 AFC powerhouse teams. Who do you think will win?

I'll take the Pats. They have had the Colts' # in the past(except for last year when half the team was hurt), and I think they will beat them again. Both teams are coming off impressive wins with N.E. having one less day to prepare and recover from MOnday nights game.

Until the Colts can prove themselves, I'll take the Pats everytime.

I'm guessing a classic shoot-out.

34-28 Pats!

Hoping it doesn't come down to automatic Adam.

Tom Brady likes lil boys...

I really have to go w. the Pats on this one; they have momentum [as does IN] but they're at Home, and that should be their ticket to winning.

I'm a big Tom Brady fan, but just like last year, I don't think the Patriots have the secondary to stop the Colts. Colts will win.

They're getting some good play outta Samuel, Chad Scott, and Ellis Hobbs. Plus the Hitman is back there as well.

The Pats have been stopping the run as well. And Indy has not.

They'll mix man and zone and blitz when it's right.

I like their chances...

Pats have a different secondary than last year, and also have Rodney Harrison back this year(he missed last years' game). Not having Duane Starks back there is also a comfort.

Pats will win
as usual

Temp should be in the 30's with a chance of showers.

Hoping it doesn't come down to automatic Adam.

I see a game winning field goal by Vinataeri.

With the colts rushing defense and Brady getting more comfortable with the WR's , I think pats will win and not as close as all are thinking

I know that they aren't in the same division, but is there a better rivalry in the NFL besides these two?

I know that they aren't in the same division, but is there a better rivalry in the NFL besides these two? There are better traditional rivalries (ex. Dal-Wash, Cle-Pitt, KC-Oak) than this one, but right now this is probably the most heated and relevant one. Reminds me of the the SF/Dallas rivalry of the 90's and the Oakland/Pittsburgh rivalry of the 70's.

Case, you disappoint me, buddy...

Uh, little rivalry known as Bears v. Packers?

:p

packers suck.

Just like I can't say Jets vs Dolphins (some of the best games ever including best Monday night game ever)

or Jets vs new England (From Parcells to Belicheck to Curtis martin)

Giants vs Dallas is still big.


I agree best rivalry currently is Colts vs New England.

Yes, that was what I was getting at.

Certainly tradition no doubt, just like the other ones mentioned.

But when was the last time they played a game with a playoff spot on the line, or in the playoffs?

I think Maroney goes off this week 100+ yards and a td. He is going to show everybody he is better than Bush.

GO PATS !!! :D

How many other non-division teams play eachother EVERY SINGLE YEAR?

I mean, jesus, this really isn't fair to both teams. The schedule should rotate and be true to the rotation for EVERY team, no exceptions. Being such a short regular season, forcing two great teams to play every year is not fair to the teams, or the fans. Why is it not fair to the fans? This is a playoff caliber matchup. Why lose some of that luster?

But hey, I love both teams. I see Vinatieri making a 40 yarder with 1:30 left, and the Pat's kicker (I don't even know who he is) missing a 30 yarder with :03.

Sweet, sweet irony.

There playing again due to them both finishing in 1st place last year in their division. I believe it's the 1st place playing first place thing...

Is it Sunday night yet?

Nice av Case. :bigup:

pats
lets go islanders

Actually, the hatred is so great between the two teams that, even if the Bears were 2-15, so long as they killed the packers, we'd consider it a winning season.

Until the Colts can prove themselves, I'll take the Pats everytime. What are you talking about? Are you forgetting Indy beat the pats last year around the same time in NE 40-21? Colts will win again.

Peytons' Colts are 1-7 in N.E. Last years game featured Duane Starks starting @ C.B. and Randall Gay starting for Rodney Harrison. Also half the Pats' O-Line was out with injuries. Like Denver seems to have New Englands #, New England seems to have Indys'#. Indy seems to have Denvers'# as well. I was really impressed that Indy went into Denver last weekend and won, especially after being down 14-3 early. You can say what you want about Indys' defense sucking....The team finds a way to win.

The Colts aren't playing D like they did last year. They not blowing people out either like last season.

They let the Titans hang around and the Jets.

I'm guessing it'll be a shootout with the last team having the ball will probably win...

New England 27
Indy 24

Pats win on the leg of Gostkowski

34-21 Pats. I also thought we would get smoked by Cincy, so what do I know? It should be a great game with both teams playing very well right now. Can't wait for 8:15 tonight!

"its up! and its good as Adam Vinatieri wins it as time runs out...too bad hes not playing for the Patriots cuz they sure could have used him today... final score Colts 24, Patriots 21"

hey peyton , your my bitch.

Patriots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go Patriots (this game only) Bears bit the dust and the 72 Dolphins have put the champagne on ice

Will the refs' call holding on the Colts' O-line once tonight. God Damn fuckin ridiculous.

Don't get the REPLAY RULE!

If they make a coach tell the reason for the Challenge and then rule that the coach was wrong to challenge....why is he not charged with a Time-Out?

And if Belichik challenged the fumble...why are they looking at anything else???

I am getting sick of those re-play rules too- and when they throw down that Red Babuska for a challenge

And then us chicks have to ask the guys- and they think we are stupid -Even Dan Madden says " I don't know what that was all about"

:p

They should call it Sunday Challenge Football from now on--OMG

HOLY CRAP!

The Pats should have challenged that Harrison TD!!!! He was readjusting the ball in his hands!

If the Pats won the challenge, the Colts would have been penalized 15 yards for the taunting!

im a huge pats fan, but the harrison td was an amazing catch by one of the game's greatest... pats still win 27-24. Vinatieri chokes at the end for the tie.

Colts will win again.

:hw: to the Patsy's and therehttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a398/peepintommy/fag-1.gif degenerate fans. Colts 27 Patsy's 20.

4 fuckin pick offs, tom brady sucked tonight

fuck you and thanks artie.


they let them win.

I'm here to talk my lumps like a man. Turnovers and some questionable play calling. Tough deal, real tough.

I agree with fuckface Madden about us pressing a little and trying too get to much too quick, the 1st pick in the endzone.

Indy could've been had tonight, I think. We D'ed up in the 2nd half, plus Non-Automatic Adam missing 2 kicks.

Kevin Faulk, you owe us one there, shorty!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :mad: :mad:

Stevie, even though you were posting in some shitty GC thread while the game was on, thus not paying full attention, you and your commercial hoar WIN!...congrats.

3 came off of 3 tipped balls. Fuck off. And watch the game next time rookie.

i wish dan :( .................shota beer shota beer shota beer

Manning had a 4 int game in the playoffs where his receivers were held continuously, but they were still interceptions and it was a so called choke. I guess the shoe is on the other foot.

ooga ooga :rock: :booty:

Yeah no crap.... I HATE when they give faulk the ball. Occasionally he makes a nice play but more times than not its a fumble or something. Whatever.... as long as we beat them in the playoffs.

That first pick was a horrible pass by Brady to a reciever who was double covered in the end zone. I don't know why the Pats didn't run it up the middle all game, especially when Brady wasn't having his best game. His recievers didn't help much either as they were not aggresive. Ben Watson could have drawn a pass interference call on Bradys' 3rd pick if he had jumped into the defender who had his back to Brady. I also thought the refs sucked(waaaaaaaaa) not calling the Dolts for one holding call( O-Line), when several holds were obvious. Also the taunting call on Brown, and the hands to the face call on Vrabel were a joke. The Pats also killed themselves by commiting 5 penalties on third down that would have ended the Colts drive.

Taunting call on brown was total BS.

So was the Late hit call on Rosie Colvin when the whistle had not even blown yet. The league made a big deal about playing to the whistle this year and the refs pull that shit.....drives me fuckin nuts.
