    That's the key. With how well the Colts played, they're only 4 points up. That's encouraging for the Saints. But they're gonna need to score a TD at some stage, FGs won't cut it...

    Agreed, but they really started getting into rhythm in the 2nd quarter.
    I think they will put points up. Just a matter of if they can stop the Colts.

    Not a great half-time show, sweet stage but that's about it

    he doesnt really have to figure out much tbh. they only stoped 2 drives once thanks to a dropped sitter the other when the colts were backed up inside their 1 and inside 2 mins

    not really much needed in the way of adjustments for manning id say.

    Good point to be honest. At least in the 2nd quarter the Saints D stopped the Colts, they did nothing in the 1st!

    For the Saints to win I reckoned they'd have to get an early lead, kinda shock and awe the Colts, and then win a shootout. I just fancy the Colts more in a tight game, cos Manning can win a game ( not that Brees can't, but Manning is expert at doing what needs to be done ).

    exactly just look at the colts record this year. how many games have they won my less than 1 score, how many 4th quarter comebacks has manning had ? Both records for a single NFL season

    I dont think they need an early lead, it may be better for them if they take the lead closer to the end game,

    the early lead needs to be protected for longer as the colts are going to be doing

    only my two Cs

    Hank Basket lost the ball for the Colts....haha

    Manning will be getting blisters on his ass sitting on the bench this long. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,307 ✭✭✭cruiserweight


    Payton wow two huge calls, the man is trying everything and leaving it all out there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,646 ✭✭✭cooker3


    Btw, I really don't like the decision to go for it but none the less
    Huge momentum shift. If they can get a td here then it's wide open.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,336 ✭✭✭jasonb


    Heh heh... Thought I was watching the 6 Nations for a second there. I say it was scary under that group of players!

    I know what you mean. You concentrate on hanging onto a lead, you can end up losing...
