Man, I didn't realize how quickly the fourth quarter was slipping away, tho. We're already down to 3:21 left.

Jamal Lewis scores his 4th TD of the game to give Cleveland a 1 point lead with 2:17 left. 2 pt conversion pending.

On the one hand they left too much time on the clock, on the other, the Pats could end up with the last possession, needing a field goal, unless the Colts can time things perfectly.

Look at the guys that Manning is having to throw to in the 2nd half with Harrison and Gonzalez out. Not quite the scrubs that Brady had last season, but a lot different than what he has grown accustomed to over the last few seasons.

New England has just about completely taken away Clark and done a good job with Wayne. When Indy is looking for Moorehead to be a difference maker, bad things happen.

Way too conservative.

Manning's going to get the ball back with 2 minutes.

I just want to point out that in another thread, I said that the line for this game should be Pats by 4.

Wow, Josh Brown barely gets the ball inside the upright so we're heading to OT in Cleveland at 30-30.

With all the blowouts it's nice to see the Pats still remember how to win the tough ones.

I love Jamal Lewis. 37 yards rushing, 4 TD. Combined with Portis and Brady, he leads me to fantasy bliss this week.

Pretty favorable schedule for the Pats the rest of the way - I don't think they'll be able to pull off 16-0, but they definitely have a shot.

At Buffalo
VS. Philadelphia
At Baltimore
Vs. Pittsburgh
Vs. Jets
Vs. Miami
At Giants

woohoo! I look forward to seeing these two teams again in the playoffs.

In watching the last 7 minutes, I saw what I love about both of these QBs. Manning has the great ability to look at 4-5 receivers whereas some QBs can only look at 1. The thing I like about Brady is that he can be very accurate and calm when he is just about ready to be sacked.

My guess would be they get to 14-0 and then lose to the 0-14 Dolphins. Not because of any history, but because New England will not play their starters for the entire game.

Possibly, but I think there is almost zero chance of the Pats resting their starters if they are 14-0. If Belicheck was worried about resting guys, he wouldn't be keeping Brady and the other starters in as long as he has in some of the blow outs. He is on a mission, and I think he is going to accomplish it.

I'm sure the Pat's practice squad could defeat the Dolphin's starters during a 10 minute game if spotted 30 points.

Just to clear this one up. It was clearly not an interception when you looked at it on replay. However, the booth could not review it because there was more than two minutes left in the game and the Cards could not challenge it because they were out of time outs.

wel, we found out that the Pats are a good team, and we found out the Colts are a good team. Wait, we already knew that coming in.

I think it's going to be another good game whenever these teams play, and I fully expect it to be in the playoffs.

Pats were out coached a bit in this one I think, felt like the Colts were one step ahead of them for most the game.

All right Cowboys and Eagles. The Colts and Pats have set the standard for the day. Make sure you live up to the standard okay?
