Peyton exceeds 300 yards in passing, setting another NFL playoff record. 27-17 Colts with 8:27 left in the fourth.ĥ:36 pm | Fourth quarter, 20-17 Colts | by Peter Sanders XP is good and the Colts start pulling away. Peyton connects with Dallas Clark for a 15-yard touchdown. Of course, he's probably wishing Peyton was watching him and not the other way around. Add a horrendous Boston accent to the list.ĥ:38 pm | Fourth quarter, 27-17 Colts | by Peter SandersĮli Manning just breathed a big sigh of relief from a luxury suite. Mel Gibson has had a lot to atone for in the past few years. Manning comes back with eight minutes left.ĥ:39 pm | Fourth quarter, 27-17 Colts | by Peter Sanders Jets are forced to punt and and the ball goes out of bounds deep in Colts territory. And again, a Sanchez pass to Cotchery gets tipped and the Colts defense is sticky right now. Sanchez goes to work from his own 20 and nearly gets picked off on a quick fire to Brad Smith. Now Sanchez and Rex are going to try to ruin the day of everyone in Las Vegas who took the safe bet. Last I checked, the Colts were favored by 9 1/2 this morning, so they've covered the spread. Time is running out for the boys in green.ĥ:43 pm | Fourth quarter, 27-17 Colts | by Peter Sanders Garcon, which means "boy" in French (hat tip to "Pulp Fiction"), picks up another first down and then Joseph Addai runs for another one to the Jets' 37-yard line. Third and three with seven minutes left in the quarter. Instead of keeping it on the ground, they're letting Peyton air it out a bit and Garcon catches one just short of the first-down marker.
His pass to Dallas Clark is tipped and drops incomplete.
#Bearded green ogre hattip crack
Sanchez might get one more crack at it, even if the Colts get three or seven points.ĥ:49 pm | Fourth quarter, 27-17 Colts | by Peter SandersĬolts get an illegal-contact call in their favor. Makes another tough catch with coverage in trail. Pierre Garcon is certainly a hero of the game. He'll be the oldest kicker to play in a Super Bowl.ĥ:52 pm | Fourth quarter, 27-17 Colts | by Peter Sanders
Kick is good from the 41-year-old and he puts the Colts up 30-17 with 2:29 left. They change tacks and bring Matt Stover out for a 21-yard FG attempt. The Jets could get the ball back at their own 1 and have about two minutes to pick up 10 points. Peyton takes over at the Colts' 48 yard line at the two-minute warning.ĥ:58 pm | Fourth quarter, 30-17 Colts | by Peter SandersĬolts take a timeout at fourth and one. Sanchez gets picked off for the first time today and Kelvin Hayden holds on to the ball. Thomas Jones dropped the short pass, but Sanchez connects for a first down on the next.

On the upside, the Jets players selected for the Pro Bowl will be able to play!Ħ:02 pm | Fourth quarter, 30-17 Colts | by Peter Sanders The Colts are Miami-bound again as Manning will run out the clock on the ground.
#Bearded green ogre hattip series
Let's hope the guy in charge of the ball picks the right one to ship down to Miami.Ĭolts punt it away and the Jets will start at their own 11 for their final series of the game.Ħ:04 pm | Fourth quarter, 30-17 Colts | by Peter Sanders The NFL has already stamped two versions of the Super Bowl football. Talk about vox populi!Ħ:07 pm | Fourth quarter, 30-17 Colts | by Peter Sanders
#rexryanstomach is a  hashtag topic on Twitter right now. Final score 30-17.Ħ:09 pm | Fourth quarter, 30-17 Colts | by Peter Sanders While everyone was paying attention to "rookie" Rex Ryan, it is "rookie" Jim Caldwell who is taking his team to the Super Bowl. Thanks for your eyeballs and your comments on this Sunday afternoon.Ħ:12 pm | Final, 30-17 Colts | by Peter Sandersįinal play of the game.Sanchez completes a little pass and the confetti comes down in Indy. Now, it's off to the Superdome where I can unabashedly root for Dem Saints!!!! The Jets will likely roar back next year, as long as Sanchez doesn't have a surfing accident in the offseason and Rex Ryan keeps his blood pressure in check. The Jets defense looked formidable in the first half, but Manning clicked in after the half and brought the Colts back to victory.
Even though Reggie Wayne was largely neutralized by Darrelle Revis, the rest of the Indy receiving corps - Pierre Garcon, Dallas Clark and Austin Collie - stepped up. The kid who would be Super Bowl King will have to wait another year, as the NFL MVP came through as expected.
