You don't go for 2 there? 35-33?

 

[MSULions]

Man what a game!!

 

[thatguy]

Not over by any means, what an exciting game.

Never chase points this early. Look at the USC game last night. had they kicked an xp in the 3rd quarter they would have been up 9 at the end instead of 8. WAY too much time left to be giving a point away.

 

[Wingnut]

Before the game started, I jokingly said to my buddy, "This game is gonna be 75-70"

I know there's a school of thought that says never go for two until late in the game, but I disagree. Any chance you have to tie it up, you take.

 

[Frank Black]

What a stop!

 

[Frank Black]

A stop to no avail.

 

[swirvenirvin]

edge comes out after he gets the down to the goaline :X

Not with this much time left in the game you don't, esp. the way these 2 are going.PS although they made it, stupid for Colts to go for it IMO.

hm - then again, keeping in mind the joke that is the Colts' D today....

With Edge being the workhorse on this drive, be prepared for a Rhodes TD.

Not watching the game, but I doubt it.Nevermind...

 

[BigRed]

he's also in the end zone. Cmon throw Harrison a freakin bone already!

 

[thejag]

Why do teams pitch back 5 yards on 4th and 1? I have never quite figured that out.Awful. :X

 

[Childress]

Um, how about using Rudi. I bet he could have gotten 1 yard in two attempts

 

[Wingnut]

Holy cow, the Colts punted.

 

[BigRed]

Awful. :X

They're stupid.

 

[BigRed]

In another shocker, the announcers brown-nose someone. :X Rudi this time.

 

[Workhorse]

Terrible throw by Palmer.

 

[BigRed]

Gee what a cute little dance Jackson has. tee hee, giggle:X GDB the ghetto influence coming to Indy.

 

[Wingnut]

dammit

 

[thatguy]

give it to Edge, give it to Edge!

 

[thatguy]

Again, again!

 

[The Hit Man TKO]

Gee what a cute little dance Jackson has. tee hee, giggle

:X GDB the ghetto influence coming to Indy.

 

[Workhorse]

That's GOT to be pass interference! Man, the Colts have gotten the calls today when they've needed them...

 

[Wingnut]

The Bengals need a little more resolve. When they're behind late they seem to lose steam.Have they had any late come from behind victories lately?

 

[thatguy]

That was a dumb series.

 

[MSULions]

I have a feeling Peyton may come close to the alltime passing yards in a game record of 554 yards....

Not if he's ahead, he won't.

yes, because no one has ever accused Peyton of running it up.

It's not about running it up.It's about wasting time by running the ball. If Indy is up late, they always run with Edge to end it...and Peyton gets about 1 pass every 3-4 plays. The reason he gets accused of running it up is because he passes even that much, which is more than most teams.

you were saying?

 

[BigRed]

That was a dumb series.

Nope. Not smart enough to be merely dumb. That was some of the worst play-calling I have ever seen Manning make, WTF?

 

[BigRed]

That's GOT to be pass interference! 

Man, the Colts have gotten the calls today when they've needed them...

Have they? I've seen 1 that looked like pass int. to me that wasn't called early in the game...might have missed some though. I think the Bengals got 1 also.Basically it's just the NFL refs continuing to suck this year, although overall this game I think they've been decent.

Edit: GOD the Colts' D (still) sucks.

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

CP putting in work.

 

[jagbag]

That was a dumb series.

Beyond F-ing dumb. I hope it comes back to BITE them in ### and they lose.Stupid,stupid,stupid !!!

 

[msommer]

is TJ still alive?editguess so false start on 3rd and long

 

[BigRed]

Young guy mistake on not getting a play off before the 2:00 warning.Still, this should be over but it's not.....Damn! Going for a FG

 

[maxwell1295]

What happened to Rudy. Did he get hurt ot does he just have hands of stone in the 2 minute offense?

 

[jonessed]

No onside kick? Can't the Colts just run the clock out?Edit: Looks like maybe Gamecenter just set it up odd.

it was a trick kick

 

[Dynasty]

No onside kick? Can't the Colts just run the clock out?

It was a strange onside kick. The Bengals put most of their players on the right side of the field. Then, they kicked it over the Colts players on the left side of the field. The ball went about 30 yards and there was a good scramble for the ball which the Colts got.A penalty is giving the Bengals another chance to onside kick.

 

[jwvdcw]

No onside kick? Can't the Colts just run the clock out?

on side kick but they kicked it deep to the side where there weren't a lot of players....really smart play, but didn't work. But penalty on Indy gives them another shot. 2nd kick coming.....

 

[Wingnut]

What a game and what a finish. I wish Cincy could have pulled this one out.

 

[jonessed]

Thanks for the info.

 

[djcolts]

That Bengal OL was outstanding today. I'm just relieved the Colts won.
