Ummm, the Colts won the game 45-21.<BR/><BR/>Every time I scan this blog I find errors. <BR/><BR/>*You think that ESPN ranked the '72 Dolphins first out of twenty (when it was NFL Films/NFL Network, ESPN was not involved in any way). <BR/><BR/>*You think that Lovie Smith won a Super Bowl with the '99 Rams (when he actually joined the staff two years later). <BR/><BR/>*You think the Colts lost to Philly in November (when they won by three touchdowns). <BR/><BR/>This blog does not meet the same standards of quality as your regular website. It's an embarassment.

I live and ...Hey...you are preaching to the choir. I live and die Colts football. The offensive struggles in past postseasons are well known. Your first paragraph just implies that they did NOTHING to help this team win the Super Bowl. Like you and I could have been out there playing wideout and the Colts still would have won. Teams all postseason long have made stopping Manning to WR's as priority #1. You have always claimed that the postseason is a different animal. Take your Pats for example. Maybe they thought back in the regular season that Marv had lost some of his jazz. Marv torched NE in a game that ultimately allowed the AFCCG to be played at home. In the playoff game, Samuel is back where he belongs on #88 and things were different. Instead of blogging on the Colts wideouts, maybe it's time to do a piece on Brady's two consecutive postseason stinkers. Or does he get the "pass" because of the rings? I'm quite sure that if Peyton stinks up the joint in back to back postseason like Brady just has....you will have twenty write ups and 50 blogs on that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193807354766364466.post-55510282883670976442007-02-08T15:48:00.000-05:002007-02-08T15:48:00.000-05:00this is a piece we did on Harrison's numbers in th...this is a piece we did on Harrison's numbers in the postseason from Week 10.<BR/>www.coldhardfootballfacts.com/Article.php?Page=1134&Category=10colonel comeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02413058861228484273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193807354766364466.post-56868714922837951282007-02-08T15:46:00.000-05:002007-02-08T15:46:00.000-05:00Well, I wasn't really drawing any conclusions, I w...Well, I wasn't really drawing any conclusions, I was wondering what the reason was for Wayne and Harrison's fade in the playoffs. Yours is as good as any. I wasn't saying that Harrison and Wayne didn't still have impact on the game -- you're probably right, that the Colt coaches decided that their best chance to win was to use the passing game as a decoy and cram the ball down the opposition's throat. But the fact remains that Manning to WRs is NOT made for the playoffs -- and that's not really debatable even with this latest title.colonel comeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02413058861228484273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193807354766364466.post-82881706090490464512007-02-08T10:40:00.000-05:002007-02-08T10:40:00.000-05:00I am a Colts fan for starters, but I really respec...I am a Colts fan for starters, but I really respect the CHFF analysis. I take the constant cheap shots in stride and see them for what they are.....Pats fans being fans. The reason I like the CHFF so much is the attention to detail and recognizing the subtle details of the game. Stuff like yards per attempt being so valuable in determining the effectiveness of a QB. When breaking down Reggie and Marvin, I am stunned that the always subtle detailed CHFF doesn't recognize the "Deion Sanders' effect produced by these guys. Now, it is no secret that Deion in his prime did not have to defend one pass or make one tackle in a game to drastically alter the play on the field. Statistically his games may have seemed weak, but those who know football like the CHFF quickly realize the value of ONE player taking away half the field for an offense. The same thing here with 87 and 88. The numbers were not there, but can you honestly not see the value. Why were the oline and running backs only facing 7 and sometimes 6 in the box? Why was the middle of the field so open for Dallas Clark? Why was there not much blitzing and ZERO sustained pressure on Manning? Why was the TE and RB dumpoffs so effective during the Super Bowl run? Uhhhhhh CHFF....87 and 88. The threat of those two TOTALLY change a game. The failure of the most often brilliant CHFF to recognize this is surprising considering the past attention to detail. Poorly done fellas by a group that rarely whiffs. This is an A-ROD like 2nd and 3rd no body out style whiff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193807354766364466.post-55998244496309479592007-02-08T03:59:00.000-05:002007-02-08T03:59:00.000-05:00hey maybe those Safeties Deep along with the Corne...hey maybe those Safeties Deep along with the Corners to blanket cover our WR's left space underneath for the short passing game and kept only 7 men in the box for them to run against which was why those 2 aspects of the colts game helped them win..but hey what the fuck lets dump on the WR's because you know its the Colts and you simply don't win by paying WR's.......i mean go get a Reche Caldwell,Jabbar Gaffney and you can still win a Superbowl ..oh wait...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
