Re: Indy fans... where are the excuses?
I agree. Jabba the belly has been quite the gentlemen while here but I still don't like the Colts.

Re: Indy fans... where are the excuses?
I'm discussing this ONLY as a football discussion now. No sour grapes or anything.
I thought... and I admit, I am wrong ocassionally ( ) that a catch had to be made, the whole way to the ground, or until a "football" move is made. Regardless of in or out of bounds. We've seen that rule a lot with catches going out of the endzone. Th receiver HAS to catch it still. I guess crossing the goal line is different. I was surprised at the call. Either way... what closed the game was the pick 6. At that point the game was done. Congrats again Who-Datters! Jabba |

No team plays a perfect game. There is nothing in Super Bowl 44 that any Colts fan should find recriminating. On that day, with that opponent, they lost. You line up 10 times and odds are each team will win 5 times, but it just didn't happen that day for the Colts.

Re: Indy fans... where are the excuses?
Yep, exactly. I thought that 2-point conversion was good before the replay and was screaming for Payton to challenge that call. The replay is extremely clear, ball broke the plane and possession was made. Excellent concentration to make that play. I hope you guys post some pictures of your parade, I'd really like to see some.

Re: Indy fans... where are the excuses?
I saw it worse than that. The Colts pulled the arm making a catch practically impossible - palpably unfair act. If ever a rule needs to change, that was it. Clear INT but offensive PI. Penalty has to be more than 10 yards repeat down. For a start, loss of down. Perhaps 15 yard penalty as well, not 10
