***AFC Championship Game, Instant Classic***

[Peyton2MarvinN06]

Oh my god fellas! Just got home from the mass of humanity of downtown Indianapolis! The game was the craziest, loudest game I've ever been to! This guy has no voice at all! This has been my dreams to see the Colts make it to the superbowl and win the Lombardi trophy! The Bears looked pretty stout today even though the Saints played horrible! I think it really should be a good matchup, but I really think that this is the Colts year to win the SuperBowl! When we were down 21-3, I kept telling everyone I was sittin around that we were still gonna win the game! I just truly believe that destiny is on the Colts side this year! Props to all the Colts backers today! IMG- solid call on that Bears game bro, I had the Saints in a large teaser with the Colts and obviously that didn't work out so well... However, I did have 10 units on the Colts ML today so I was pumped that we won! This was not about any amount of money at all! Aces, I might be seein ya down in Miami man... I'm gonna swing some tickets somehow and get my ass down there! I was pumped to see Jim Irsay hoist the Lamar Hunt trophy today, but I can't wait to see him hoist the Vince Lombardi trophy on February 4th!

Let's Go Horse!
WHAT A GAME! WHAT A GAME!

Couple of weird things from the game... First of all I don't think I've ever seen two fumble recoveries in the endzone for TD's by two different teams in the same game... Thought that was crazy and also I have never seen soo many measurements on short yardage situations... I bet they brought the sticks out atleast 10 times today! Well, guys sorry for the ramblin, but I have to! This is the happiest I have been in years! As a lifelong Colts fan, I have seen plenty of down days of Colts history! This definitely is the best one and I can't wait for the biggest one on February 4th when the Indianapolis Colts win Super Bowl 41 in Miami, Florida! My b-day is on Tuesday, so Happy early Birthday to me!

DO WORK SON! GO HORSE!

I'm a Patriots fan, so why rub it in?

Just kidding. Congrats. Colts backers have had a lot of misery over the years in the playoffs, so you deserve a title.

I'm not that upset about the brutal loss since Dungy and Manning are pretty class guys, always say the right things.

Just glad I was able to bet it live and get out of my Pats position in time. When they called defensive pass interference (because defender wasn't facing the ball? He didn't touch the receiver!) and put the ball on the 1 yard line that was pretty much all I needed to know. Sure enough, they made up a 15 yard roughing the passer penalty with the game on the line in the end.

Glad Pats are out, but man, Colts needed a lot of help.

The call was BS, and would have played a million times if the Pats had recovered Harrison's fumble. The defender barely touched Manning's helmet.

That's why the NFL has no credibility. Everyone would have said the game was fixed to get Manning into the Super Bowl. Otherwise, well officiated game but why can't the zebras forget these bogus roughing calls in the fourth quarter?

Even though I was on the wrong side of this game. I must admit this one is truly an instant classic.

Congrats to the Colts fans and the Colts backers today

Fcuk this game. Next.

Had the under. That was trashed in the 3rd.

Congrats Colts backers/fans.

Patriot Fans Crying is priceless...

How bout Caldwell's 2 dropp passes...1 of which would have been a TD?

How about the 12 men in the huddle penalty? That 5 yard penalty was a killer for NE...

Brady's INT at the end...well he missed a WIDE OPEN WR.....

Bottom line home field was huge in this game....probably why the Pats had beat them the last 2 AFC Title games in Foxborough...

Pats had a 21-6 halftime lead and you lost....accept it

[Seattle Slew]

No one crying on these boards. Indy deserved the win.

Pats beat Indy in Foxboro in only one AFC title game, in 2003. The 2004 game was the divisional round.

I had no idea until today that the Colts 18 point comeback was the largest in Championship game history... I kept thinking about the Bills/Oilers game in the 90's where the Bills were down 35-3, not sure if that was the exact score? The Patriots never go down easily and once again they did not last night! They are one hell of a football team... It's amazing what Bellichick and Brady were able to do with an offense that did not include a big time WR! Gaffney and Caldwell are decent, but the Pats need a big time playmaker in the WR position... I would be very surprised if they do not address this either with their 1st round draft choice or by picking up a solid free agent in the off-season!

It has been my life-long dream to see the Colts hoist the Lombardi trophy! I really believe this is the Colts year and I hope they come strong on Feb 4th! I do not believe the Bears will just roll over, as they are a very solid ball club as well!

Peyton,

That Oilers/Bills game came in the Wild Card round. The Colts comeback was the biggest in Conference Championship Games only.

By the way, congrats!
