]My pick: Patriots 45 Colts 24[/I]

I'm no expert, but I guarantee it'll be closer than that. If I'm wrong, I'll promptly eat my crow. xthumbsupx

[TexasTerror]

Am I the only one upset that I am not in the 7% of the country that is getting the Houston Texans-Oakland Raiders game? Ugh!

GO TEXANS!

[UNHWildCats]

My guess is fans in the Bay area would trade the game with ya :p

[DuckDuckGriz]

Last second prediction:

Pats win 30-24.

[CCUCheer]

Just got back from shopping and bought another new Brady jersey (only this one is pink instead of my other one navy) to watch the game tonight!
I'm excited yet a little nervous, this should be a great game but I'm sure hoping the Patriots defeat the Colts.

GO PATS!!!!!!!!!!!! xhurrayx

[TexasTerror]

My guess is fans in the Bay area would trade the game with ya :p

They have no worries...the game did not sell out! The Bay area is getting the Pats-Colts game! xlolx

[Peems]

3-0 Colts

[DuckDuckGriz]

2 promising drives and just 3 points for the Colts -- not good.

[Peems]

First time Pats have trailed at the end of the first quarter all year.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Peyton Manning is getting very frustrated. Brady couldn't be more calm. That will make the difference.

[UNHWildCats]

Couple bull**** PI calls.... that one a minute wsa PI but against Indy stupid Refs

[DuckDuckGriz]

Couple bull**** PI calls.... that one a minute wsa PI but against Indy stupid Refs

I did see that, coulda been a pick if he wasn't "tripping" over the corner.

[Cleets]

Two mysterious pass interference calls for 77 yards of Colts offense...


The NFL will do everything it can to assure a Pat's loss today... (Evil cheating defiant Pats) xlolx

count on all day the Colts getting calls, even when a catch with clearly the leading foot out of bounds by 5 inches is called a catch forcing the Pats to use the Red flag... xlolx
it wont work the Pats will still win...

Looks like we can count on the Pats missing tackles and having Joseph Addai go the distance at the end of the half:D

The Pats have no idea what's going on, they don't know what it's like to be losing at half.

No comment on the Phantom pass interference call I see..? ("cause they were Bull-Sheet) calls and the catch that forced the Pats to use a Red Flag on an over the top clearly out of bounds leading foot on the white catch...

My point stands...

The Colts will get all the help they need...
but the Pats will still win (I claim) xnodx

[Cleets]

Oh and ....

On the touchdown run there was a clear Colts block in the back that never got called...

(what are the chances that Patriots get called on that block in the back...100%)

just a guess...

Again.. The Pats will beat both the NFL and the Colts tonight.. (Tough Duty)
but I have a gut feeling...xlolx

I'm at work and I am listening on the radio. So I actually cannot fairly comment on the PI call. Though I'm sure it was well called considering it was the "dirty patriots" who did it;)

[UNHWildCats]

this officiating is ****ing pathetic

[Cleets]

well you missed a blatant "Arm Bar" pass interference (even called by Phil Simms on TV) by the Colts (no penalty) .. 4th down...

xeyebrowx

yet... on both long throws by the Colts phantom pass interference for 77 yards...
(I wish I was making this up)

[Peems]

Joseph Addai is running wild

[DuckDuckGriz]

Randy Moss with a one-hander over the middle xbowx

[Grizalltheway]

Looks like we won't even need an official whining and excuses thread for Pats fans. xlolx

[UNHWildCats]

Looks like we won't even need an official whining and excuses thread for Pats fans. xlolx
dont matter how much crap the refs call against NE were still gonna win.

[Grizalltheway]

dont matter how much crap the refs call against NE were still gonna win.

We shall see...xpopcornx

[SuperJon]

What's with this "we're still gonna win" stuff? Did you play for them? Are you on staff?

Sorry, that's a HUGE pet peeve of mine. Saying "we" for college is ok if you were a student or alum, but the pro stuff bugs me.

[DuckDuckGriz]

I don't care how good of a coach Belicheck is. That was one of the most athletic defensive plays I've EVER seen. Brackett's interception xbowx

I'm starting to feel it for the Colts. Pats get nailed with the personal foul - one thing's for sure, the refs are not kind to them today.

[Grizalltheway]

Tremendous play indeed. xbowx xbowx

[Peems]

Pats are so dirty and cheap :D

[DuckDuckGriz]

Colts better not piss this drive, and momentum, away.

[DuckDuckGriz]

WOW!!!!!

Alright I'll chill out. This game is living up to the hype.

[DuckDuckGriz]

TOUCHDOWN MANning

[Peems]

Game is far from over, but so far the Colts D has been quite impressive.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Brady and Moss -- the long bomb never looked so pretty.

[Mountain Panther]

Brady and Moss -- the long bomb never looked so pretty.

A little history for ya....

UNI was the only college team to hold Randy Moss to ZERO TD receptions in a game. xthumbsupx

[Cleets]

even the TV announcers are loudly contesting the penalty calls..
now over 140 yards against the Patriots... xlolx


It's so clear what is happening even the TV guys need feel like they have to come clean and separate themselves from this travesty... xnodx

oh my.. I can not wait for the press reaction on Monday.!!!!!!

[DuckDuckGriz]

That is interesting. Montana obviously can not make the same claim. xbawlingx

Does it count if we kicked Tony Romo's ass in his last game at EIU? :p

The Pats will get a couple letters from the NFL saying "Sorry about the bad call"

Interesting too that the NFl assigned a crew led by a rookie Ref to this game.. A lot in the media were surprised Ed Hockule (sp) wasnt assigned the game.

[dbackjon]

Well officiated game - if the Boston whiners are whining about it - they whine when they don't get every call their way.

[Peems]

I'm listening on the radio and the Colts play by play guy is not well versed in football it seems. The color guy is good though. Go Colts!

[UNHWildCats]

that drive took what 10 seconds :D

[UNHWildCats]

Well officiated game - if the Boston whiners are whining about it - they whine when they don't get every call their way.

Sorry, like you, great guy but....


BULL CRAP!

[Peems]

This game is great xnodx

[Grizalltheway]

that drive took what 10 seconds :D

A quick drive was the last thing the Pats needed.

[Cleets]

Dudes... this has been a 150 yrds plus penalty bonanza for the Colts...

every single call that have been granted as though Santa was on the officiating squad...

[UNHWildCats]

Pats have ball back

[Peems]

Good job Pats, I think it will be great game if these two have a rematch in the playoffs.

[Peems]

Randy Moss is the difference

[danefan]

I'd love to know what Brady just flipped out about.

Wierd and the announcers didn't even address it.

[Cleets]

Please... I watched every second.. including the 77 yards of bullcrap pass interference and all the calls (again and again) against the Patriots...


but whatever... another road win (against the entire NFL) no problem... xlolx

[UNHWildCats]

Brady flipped out?

[NDSUFREAK]

Brady flipped out?

yeah he did after he had kneeled the ball and started to yell at somebody for something

[Grizalltheway]

Please... I watched every second.. including the 77 yards of bullcrap pass interference and all the calls (again and again) against the Patriots...


but whatever... another road win (against the entire NFL) no problem... xlolx

So every single call against the Pats was BS? xhomerx

[UNHWildCats]

So every single call against the Pats was BS? xhomerx

No, some were legit... but comeon that second PI call was just sooo ridiculous.

[danefan]

Brady flipped out?

It was the second-to-last play. I watched it a couple of times but couldn't figure it out. He went right past the d-line to the linebackers and then to the umpire. He was pissed.

[UNHWildCats]

The Jets have been eliminated from the AFC East race and the Patriots could clinch the East with a win in their next game.

http://redsox.travisliles.com/2007/11/patriots-24-colts-20.html

[Mountain Panther]

Does it count if we kicked Tony Romo's ass........at EIU? :p

So did we....in the playoffs.

[Peems]

The Pats could go undefeated, not because they are unstoppable but because the AFC East is so ridiculously lame. They have how many tough games left? The Giants, maybe the Bills can put up a fight.

Note: I was glad to see that Bill B. had enough respect for the Colts to kneel it at the end instead of go for some more points.

[Cleets]

So every single call against the Pats was BS? xhomerx

Nope... just 1/2 of them.... xnodx

[SuperJon]

Randy Moss is the difference

I think Harrison would've made a huge difference. He's the Colts' Moss.

[Peems]

I think Harrison would've made a huge difference. He's the Colts' Moss.

We'll never know. But I have a feeling that they will be playing again in the near future. But this time outside in cold NE.

Note: I think the Pats would still have gotten home field even if the Colts had won.

he's not what the press has called him ..... but he does enjoy a win... xnodx

[Cleets]

BTW: The NFL will be notified by the Patriots about this game 5 to1 calls advantage..

xeyebrowx

2 to 1 is noticeable... 5 to 1 is clearly preposterous... xlolx but as I called (a win anyway)

The NFC is lamer.

At this point the 2nd best team in the AFC atleast played cometively against the Pats, what happened to the best NFC team a few weeks ago?

Its basically the Colts and Pats and then everyone else, thats been the opinion of many national sports writers since the Pats beat the Cowboys.

[UNHWildCats]

I was hoping for a TD pass to Welker or Stallworth instead of a kneel (Fantasy league implications only) That was before i noticed my opponent had 3 guys on BYE in his lineup and another who was inactive today so im set :D LT need to stop being lame and Maurice Jones-Drew needs to be given the ball more

Agreed.

But back to the Pats. The game was what it was supposed to be, and I can only hope the inevitable rematch is just as good, with a slightly different outcome. The NFC is lame, but the NFL is parity and don't be surprised if either one of these "super" teams loses...

Maybe the Colts should petition the NFL to give the #1 seed in the conferences to the two best teams :p

MLS now locks in the top two in each conference then the next 4 best teams regardless of the conference. As a result the team with the best record Chivas USA who was #1 in the west lost in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs to the 5th best team in the east Kansas City xlolx xlolx xlolx xlolx xlolx

So how would it work in the NFL?

[mainejeff]

Well officiated game - if the Boston whiners are whining about it - they whine when they don't get every call their way.

B.S. That was one of the worst officiated games that I have seen.

[mainejeff]

This game is great xnodx

You're right.....it WAS!!! :)

[mainejeff]

I'd love to know what Brady just flipped out about.

Wierd and the announcers didn't even address it.

They didn't address half of the things that went on in this game. Hope that Nantz at least got to blow Manning in the locker room........xcoolx

[Col Hogan]

Just on the Indianapolis Star site...even their reporter who wrote a blog of the game thought the pass interference calls were bad...

Not just a Pats fan point of view

http://blogs.indystar.com/philb/

[UNHWildCats]

give the two best record in the NFL the top seed in each conference:p then we can have the Pats and Colts in the super bowl instread of the measley AFC Championship ;)

[tribe_pride]

Any chance that the Boston area fans can do more than whine? You did it with the Red Sox and now are doing it with the Pats. I have no problem with complaining about some calls but they way you are complaining, it seems like every single play was horrible and the Pats lost by a ton. Be happy the Pats won. Everyone including the NFL is not against the Pats. There were some bad calls but there have been times in previous years where NE has benefitted from these calls. Calm down and be happy that the Pats won.

and P.S. the "we" this is a big pet peeve of mine as well.

[CCUCheer]

That was such a great game, I am not trying to whine but the officiating was pretty bad... or well at least there were some baaaad calls, but oh well. PATRIOTS came out ton top and are the only undefeated team in the NFL! wooohooo :)

[Cleets]

Blind deaf or dumb.. this was a joke of a game as far as the officials go... Even Colts announcers were blanching at the calls
but no matter about that
the best team beat both the officials and the opponent (tough duty) any day of the week

I can't wait till the NFL has to put it all on the line with both teams in the playoffs...

that will be a bad day for the colts... (Marvin Harrison or not)

[blackfordpu]

I didn't get to see the game because the Texans were on.

However, I do believe that the Pats will lose at least one game this season.

[Cleets]

i sincerely believe that the Patriots will use this game file to prove coach Bills point that is is them against the world...

Seriously, they beat the officials - the NFL - and the Colts - all on the road...


They can't lose now (after that) xlolx

[blackfordpu]

Pats remaining schedule with the games I think they could lose in bold.

@ Buffalo
Philadelphia
@ Baltimore
Pittsburgh
NY Jets
Miami
@ NY Giants

Agreed, those games are loseable, but there also very winnable... The only game that concerns me is the Giants game because we may not see much from the starters that day. But thyen again with Brady still in with 35 point leads, we very well could see him plus at 15-0 you just know Belichick is gonna want that game.

Fixed it for you. :)

[UNHWildCats]

Im always misusing there, their and they're xcoolx

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

I think Buffalo will give the Pats a tough game. The Bills seems to be playing well and with a lot of heart. They have one of the best homefield advantages in football and i can see that as a possible roadblock on the way to 16-0.

[UNHWildCats]

Well Lee Evans is finally on his game, but I dont think the Bills are that good with Losman, if Trent Edwards plays maybe but not with Losman.

[Cleets]

if it's for home field advantage during the playoffs yo can bet your ass the Patriots will be 100% playing to win...

[TheValleyRaider]

Well gee, ya think? xrolleyesx :p

I agree with the above comment about adding Buffalo to the list. Add in that it's a tough trip that comes right after their big game with the Colts, and you might see something interesting xtwocentsx

Not right after, the Pats have there bye next week. And IF Miami beats the bills next week, on the 18th when the Pats and Bills play they Patriots would clinch the AFC East with the win.

heck if on the same day URI can beat UMass and Northeast can beat UNH... Miami can beat Buffalo :p

[TheValleyRaider]

Fixed for your continued misuse of there, their and they're. :D

Also, come on. Saying the Dolphins may beat the Bills at this point is like saying that Belichick and Mangini will give each other a hug at midfield after the next game they have against each other. In reality, Bills may be a playoff team when this season is all done.

Suggesting the bills are a playoff team is more of a stretch then suggesting the Dolphins could beat them.

Anyway, im not saying the Dolphins will win, just pointing out if they do, the Pats could clinch the east by winning their next game.

Right now, the Bills are 4-4. Look at their remaining schedule:

at Mia
NE
at Jax
at Was
Mia
at Cle
NYG
at Phi

We'll assume they will lose to NE and beat Mia twice. They could go 4-1 against the remaining competition which would put them at 10-6 and a playoff possibility.(Could just as easily go 2-3). Not really sure that they will be (or should be) a playoff team but I am saying that they could sneak in to the playoffs as they have been playing pretty the last 5 weeks.

I look at that schedule and see Miami as the only winnable games. Jacksonville, Cleveland and the Giants along with the Patriots will handle them easily. Miami has atleast some chance to pull off one of the games and Philadelphia isnt a walk in the park. The Bills could go 1-7.

We'll see. I think you are underrating a very overachieving Bills team. I think you are also overrating the Browns because I think those 2 teams are very similar as both have beaten Balt and Cinci. I think that will be an excellent matchup. The Giants have finshed the last few seasons horribly and wouldn't discount that for this year as well.

Besides NE, Jax will be the toughest game. Philly I see as the last game of the season which will already mean nothing for the Eagles (except maybe Kolb?) but at least a .500 possibility for the Bills. As for the Skins, which Skins team shows up?

I think Bills finish at 9-7. With wins versus Mia twice, Browns, Eagles and Skins. Losses to NE, NYG, and Jax. Successful season but the first team with Cle both at 9-7 out of the playoffs and Jax and Ten grabbing the Wild Card Spots. We will find out after the season which of us is right and which is wrong.

You just said it yourself, the Bills are overachieving. Can't expect that to last long. Also I have more confidence in the Browns QB then the Bills.

I think they are overachieving but I also meant to put that by the Browns as well. All these are predictions for fun anyways so we'll figure out the Browns part in a little over the month and the rest the weeks before and after. Agreed that Anderson has been impressive this year.

[UNHWildCats]

Man is the NY Post bitter xlolx xlolx xlolx

Hatriots xlolx xlolx xlolx xlolx xlolx

Its also rather funny that they use the entire back page to hate on the Patriots instead of hating on that pathetic Jets team they have.
