So, congrats on the 24-20 win. It was an awesome game- I laughed at the people who said the pats were gonna win by multiple touchdowns. I kinda knew it would go down to the wire. I ain't makin any excuses for my team, they lost fair and square (BOTH TEAMS caught some bad calls). Although it'll be tough going to foxboro in january, I think the Cotls proved that they can play with the Pats and that they can play well enough to beat them (although they did not, yesterday). I also think having Harrison and Tony Ugoh will help in the future. Your thoughts?

Its nice to see that there are fans out there that can accept being beaten by a great team and not use every excuse they can find.
It definitely was a close game and a GREAT game, i couldn't take my eyes off of it :)
I think if they play in January it will be just as close. I think the only extra advantage the Pats may have is that the game is in Foxboro and they don't play in a dome, like the Colts, so they have the cold and snow that they are used to and the colts aren't. Other that it will be a great game again.

This was billed as the Pats toughest game, and it was. I thought the refs were fixing the game, and I still suspect they were. The Pats never get that many penalties. But, when the Pats had a 4 point lead, which was under the spread, the refs let them win after that. In Foxborough it won't be that close. This is a special year, the Pats will go 19-0. Everyone's saying it now, I was saying it after game 3. The Pats have a week off now, and they only have 2 tough games left, the Steelers and Giants. The Giants aren't very good, but it will be the last game of the season, and the Giants could be fighting for a playoff spot.

Wow a voice of reason from the dark side! Thanks for your submission. From my perspective, it's tough to equate any of the "bad" calls against the Colts with two interference calls that turned third and long into first and goal inside the five. Despite what I perceived to be blatant favoritism by the refs, the end result was only 3 points.The Colts played surprisingly well especially on D considering the number of starters that were out. I wouldn't have expected anything else. It made for a great if somewhat frustrating game. Looks like we'll see you again in the playoffs.

What were the bad calls on the colts?i said the pats would win by 10 and they should have,yeah your colts are tough,can they beat the pats i dont know? the pats played terrible(yes the colts helped that)the officiating was the worst and most bias i've seen in years,and the pats still won in your house(marvin harrison could and should make a difference)what people dont realize is that our power back is out (morris)he would have also made a huge difference,but we shall see in january.

The Pats are playing with real fire this season, and I would be very surprised if they gave up a loss this season. The Colts played a great game though and I still respect that team. But i think the patriots will have a more convincing win in Foxboro.

Yes, they will help. I agree with others that bad penalty calls and a terrible no call (should have been offensive interference in the endzone when Hobbs was tackled by Waynes(?)) made this much closer than it should have been.
150 penalty yards to 25 for the Colts is not right.
I wish we picked Addai instead of Maroney - see you in the playoffs.

I thought the opposite.. I thought it was a terrible game. The 1st half was very boring and if it was any other 2 qb's they would have gotten crucified.
personally, had the QB throwing any of those INT's been Rivers, Roethlisberger, etc they would have been ripping them apart and everyone would be on here saying that they suck. Both of them made bad decisions and put their teams in a position to lose because of them. Obviously the fans of those teams will flip about this comment but unless your blind and deaf then you cannot disagree honestly.

The Colts should have killed the Patriots when they have the refs giving them 149 yards and the Colts cheating with the piped in crowd noise!
If it wasn't for that they would have beaten them by a lot more points!
