Colts flat out dont have enough play makers.

Add Dez Bryant to their O and clay Matthews to their D and they're champs. As if it's that easy to do that, but they're really only a couple stars away

Yeah. Unless Seattle comes out and shows some actual offense, they don't have much of a chance. I'd rather see Brady get another than any of the Seahawks.
So now the Seahawks ure underdogs? When elite defenses meet good to elite offenses the defenses tend to win.

Edit: Grats to the pats fans for their team making it back. Didn't think the game would go this way.

Defense wins championships. The Seattle defense we saw today didn't always look like champions though.

I don't know man. Giving up only sixteen points in the first half when you have to defend for basically ten minutes straight in your own red zone is pretty impressive. Then giving up only 6 in the second half to top it off.

This shit is really sad. Thirty one fucking points and we didn't get the job done. If we had any semblance of a secondary....

I have to believe the Ravens could have knocked off the Colts or Broncos.

Some of that was on GB though too. It was overstated but that taunting penalty and not going for it on fourth and goal were big problems in retrospect. GB just fucked themselves late in that game too.

In my opinion the Ravens absolutely would have beaten both of those teams. Colts are in a weak division and played the Bengals who have like never won a playoff game in the coaches history and Manning who was hurt and played like garbage.

Yah it wasn't their best performance for sure. But I don't think it erases 7 weeks of playing arguably better defense then they did last year when they won the super bowl.

This Indy/Luck versus the Pats thing is becoming an issue that they will gloriously overcome in the future. Dude has a lot of years of growth ahead and Brady is on the way out. Of course NE will probably go back to bottom dwellers by then.
