I think that the combination of Brady throwing 5 interceptions and the fact that they were playing the Colts both contributed to their loss. If Brady had not made the mistakes he did then it would've been a lot closer and the might've possibly won. But it's not like the Colts played the greatest game either, Manning made some mistakes, threw interceptions, and Vanderjagt missed a field goal. Neither team played as good as they can, but it was still a good game.

No. The Colts beat the Patriots and so did the Broncos. The Patriots still have a decent and competitive team, but the are lagging behind the elite in the AFC. F#ck Tom Brady and go Colts!

No I believe the Colts beat the Patriots. The Colts were the better team today. They played great on defense. They converted most of the time on third downs. The used the clock well. They never let the pressure get to them. Please don't try to take this game away from us (I say "us" because I am from Indianapolis and am a die-hard Colts fan!) because they EARNED it! Actually if you are taking away from the Patriots with your comment, which you shouldn't. Think about it, they weren't out of the game until the last two minutes of the game. How is that beating yourselves?! Let's call it what it was, a great game between the two best teams in the AFC. Great game all aroun! GO COLTS!

Well that is a narrow way of looking at it. The Colts caused some of those turnovers with QB pressure and were opportunistic to catch the balls that were tipped. Give them credit. And part of winning games is taking care of the ball and making the most of your scoring chances and possessions. I am a Pats fan and wa at the game, and Manning really controlled the ballgame and is a threat at all times. I feel the Pats could have run the ball more.

No, YOU get something straight Sonny Jim!
The INDIANAPOLIS COLTS beat the Patriots. That is the way NFL Football is played! If you don't even understand the simplicity of that, then you should be watching syncronized swimming, figure skating or beach vollyball! GET IT!
The INDIANAPOLIS COLTS beat the Patriots!
If you are not man enough to understand or accept THAT simple fact, then you are not man enough to be involved with the sport!

No the Indy D beat the pats tonight. Everyone is talking about all of the interceptions by Brady but atleast two of those were tipped in which he had no control over and the Indy players were there to capitlize on them. But the pats had the oppurtunities to score but you have to give the Indy D the credit cause they came out in the second half and shut Brady down. Good game but the better team won tonight but I would love to see a rematch in the playoffs.

The passes Brady threw were take aways for the Colts but they still had to work for them. Teams fall to the Colts all the time but that shows the Colts are good. As far as Tom Brady being off, yes he was. I dont like him but I have to respect him along with many greats. But the Colts D knew what they had to do and did it. Nothing against the Pats or Tom Brady but the Indianapolis Colts beat them. They did not beat themselfs.

You say that because you don't want to give the Colts the respect they deserve! They won! And a win is a win! I was very impressed with the Colts defense. Picking off Tom Brady 4 times in a game just doesn't happen right???? A thought your boy Brady was invincible? I respect Tom Brady alot! He's an awesome quarterback but the Colts won! And their defense is underrated to the extreme.
