    Doesn't Indy need to win to hold on to a playoff berth? I think the Texans need help if they win.

    Vegas is right. Jackson will watch. The right call.

    Probably, but I would still laugh my ass off if they lay an egg in the Divisional Round after letting their guys sit too long.

    This Colts fan who watched it happen over and over again during the Peyton Manning era still has flashbacks.

    The fact that Atlanta has a shot at the playoffs shows just how bad that division is.

    Hurtful! Granted, Colts got a gift call and an unexpected fumble to have a chance, but that was the worst kick I've ever seen.

    Wouldn't shock me. Since the reformation of 2oo2, roughly half of the top seeds have failed to make the Super Bowl. I expected somewhat better success rates.
    If I were a coach, I think I'd sleep better knowing that my team lost because it was out of practice than because I played people who got hurt in a meaningless regular-season finale.

    So let it be written so let it be done.

    Sorry. Couldn't resist. I watch replays of that one and I'm still amazed the Steelers won. And yes, the call wiping out Polamalu's interception would have been infamous if the Colts had come back to win that game.

    Harbaugh seems to agree with you.

    Ravens to sit MVP favorite Jackson vs. Steelers

    You’ve never seen a bar get angrier than after going to the Browns season-ending 10th win in 2007, we —needing the Colts to win— watched Peyton Manning complete almost every pass he tried for a quarter and then left the game. Jim Sorgi was shown on screen walking out to the field and 350 Clevelanders screamed “No!” at the same time.
