Looking good right now, but I do not believe for even a second that the Jets have a realistic chance to win this game. Indy will still win by 17.

What was that QB sneak on third and one? Manning is not a mobile QB, he runs for what, 10 yards a season? Should have given it to Addia.
Kind of painful watching the old Missouri player make a good play like that. Shame on you Brad Smith.

Nice pass by Conquistador. Colts offense on the move now though, I think this is where the Colts are going to take control of the game.

Manning and the two minute drill. Nothing is more painful for a Manning hater to watch.

Jets 17, Indy 13 at the half...we better show up in the 2nd half. and here most thought the running game of the Jets is their bread and butter, but it seems they are getting the Sanchez they wanted today.

They are getting too many big plays though. I know that sounds stupid, but that Braylon Edwards TD put the Jets D and Manning right back on the field. They have the lead, but to win they will have to either continue to get big plays or they are going to have to go on long sustained touchdown drives. That three and out after the fumble was a killer for the Jets, because it gave the Colts the ball back with a chance to run a 2 minute drill.

Jets can not win if they continue to miss field goals, that is 6 points and more importantly good field position they have given the Colts now. Can't win a championship like that, just ask the Chargers.

Jets gave us a show for a little bit, but now its over. Colts offense is moving almost uncontested at this point.

Defense no longer wins championships. It will be Manning vs Farve or Manning vs Brees. The NFL today is all about the quarterback. You can not win a Superbowl in todays NFL without a good to great quarterback.

whew! im glad that is over...now i can relax till feb. 7th.
i agree with your point on the QB, however Sanchez did play well today. and im happy as hell that Indy won the ground war with the Jets. Ryan kept on talking about how good they are and that will be the difference, well it was!

Well you can make the case for the '08 Giants, Eli wasn't exactally view as a future hall of famer before that playoff run. Then you have Dilfer with the Ravens in 2000. Brad Johnson with the Buccs in 2002. Rothlisberger was only in his second season the year he won his first, same can be said about Brady. The last decade a good defense could win you a championship, I think those days are dead, I would expect to see offense running the show this decade.
It is going to be a very miserable two weeks coming up. God do I dislike Manning.
In the late game we will see just how much the football gods hate me. A Farve-Manning superbowl would be a nightmare come true for me.

It will never happen for a long time. The Colts are getting real close to becoming the team I dislike most, almost not quite. The Titans and Jeff Fisher still hold the most disliked honor.

of course there are exceptions to the rule
Dilfer, Brad Johnson, etc.
Brady is certainly a HOF player, so is Roethlisberger unless his career gets killed by an injury or something.
It's just like in the NBA... where like once a decade a team with no superstars wins the title. A much better way to win is to have the best player in the game and build around him.
and it's not like any teams are winning the Superbowl with a bad defense. The Colts have a great defense, and they had a great defense when they won the SB a few years ago. Manning didn't even play well in those playoffs.

Are you kidding me the Colts had a great defense a few years ago when they won the superbowl? They finished the season ranked 32nd against the run. That was the lowest a Superbowl champion had ever finished against the run in leauge history. The first Superbowl wins by Brady and Rothlisberger were games neither one played all that well in. Rothlisberger if I remember correctly set the record for lowest passer rating by a Superbowl winning quarterback. There are exceptions to the rule, but 2000 decade was the decade of parity and transition. This decade is going to the be years of the offense.
60's and 70's and half the 80's were defined by defense. the second half of the 80's and 90's were the years of dynasties. '00 decade was the years of parity, and now we are entering into the age of offense. You can't win a Superbowl with average or even above average quarterback play anymore, it is going to take a great qb play.

No offense Amendial, but isn't that what was said at the end of the last decade with the Rams offense at the height of their potency?

That was the beginning. This movement struggled throughout the last dozen years to gain strength. The rules changes the past couple of years were the final push needed to finish the job. A defender can not even breathe on a reciever without drawing a penelty. Baltimore a few weeks back got a penelty for hitting a reciever who was trying to catch the ball. I could be wrong on this, but I dont think I am, offense wins championships now, not defense.
