Damn are they a tough team to beat in the playoffs. No matter how little talent they seem to have and how much another team has they always come out on top. Should be a great game against Indy next week.

Pats will beat the colts next week...

Manning cant seem to be able to beat the pats when it matters. I personally would love to see Manning, Harrison and Dungy get the win and win the SB because all three of those guys deserve a ring but the pats are almost unbeatable in the playoffs.

I think this is the year Manning gets to the SB. He'll lose there though and all the people who think the AFC is soooo much better than the NFC will eat a dick.

To beat the Pats in the playoffs, you have to blow them out.

Or at least not waste a timeout on a hopeless challenge.

As I said before, the Pats know how to win, and Marty will always figure out a way to lose.

And to Mr. Ladanian "Sore Loser" Tomlinson: If you don't want the other guys celebrating on your field, win the game.

NEXT!!!

Wow, you think the Saints are that good?

I can't see the Colts beating the Pats. They can't stop the run, and they apparently can't score TDs either.

4 Super Bowls in 6 years and looking smart letting Vinitieri walk instead of overpaying him. The legend continues.

I dont agree with letting Vinatieri go... I know that the rookie has kicked very well and hasnt missed a step since Vinatieri has left but once the rookie makes 2 GW kicks in the SB then I will agree with this move.

Other than that I agree... the legend continues.

Vinitieri has been better this year than I expected. However, last season, I remember too many 4th and 5s from the 30 because Belichick had no confidence in his ability to kick any longer than 42-43 yards.

Nagging back problems over the past few years and his age didn't make him worth the price over the long run.

Gostkowski doesn't have to be as good as Vinitieri *was* to make the move correct. he only has to be better than Vinitieri will be in 2 years.

Actually, I said the NFC because I think either team will beat the Colts.

I disagree. It's funny, but for some reason, and I said this before the playoffs started, but I think this is the Colts year.

Every other year I wrote them off.

Actually, I think either NFC tean *can* beat the Colts. The problem with that is there's less than a 25% chance they'll get to play them.

I agree. Then again, I've thought that every other year too and New England always came through.

congrats to the colts... Im glad they finally got over the hump and got to the superbowl.

I did pick the patriots to win but I wanted to see the colts win because Tony Dungy, Peyton Manning and Marvin Harrison are 3 of the biggest class acts in the NFL and Im glad to see them finally get to play the big one.

On Superbowl Sunday I will definately be pulling for the colts, no offense to any bears fans.

Lets just say that the post mortems up here are endless, trying to analyze what went wrong.

Bottom line is the Colts made the plays when they had to, the Pats didn't.
