A gritty effort, even in the loss.

Nov 2nd, 2008 by Bill Burt

New England deserved better. Tony Dungy, Peyton Manning and the outplayed Colts were flat-out lucky.
Now, they are alive in the playoff race. It’s too bad.
Make sure to catch Bill Burt’s thoughts and Hector Longo’s Big Shows and No Shows in the two-minute drill in the Monday Eagle-Tribune.

  • I'm still not understanding why the Patriots didn't hammer the Colts physically like they did the Broncos. The Colts didn't play particularly well.

    Lucky????...Why is it everytime the Pats play horrible nobody makes them accountable for it?. It was terrible coaching by Belicek, Butter fingers by a receiver and great kick by an ole team mate . All of that combined with the Colts doing exactly what they needed to do beat the Pats. The pats had a "team mate" throw a late hit, that was the clincher.Why isnt all of NE on his butt today?...Without Brady the Pats are souless, clueless, and writhing in pain, with Belicek standing over them asking if they need a band-aid .. At 4-4 I like the Colts chances as much as i do a team who is 5-3.Besides "luck" is everywhere, even with the Pats, just ask Oakland....

    edward r. brewster is an idiot. the pats played a good game on the road against a hungry team and had a chance late in the 4th quarter. that is all you can ask and hopefully they can build off of this game. stop looking for excuses as too why they lost and look at what they can take from this game!!!!!!!!!
  • Brewster, the Colts didn't play particularly well. If terrible coaching means the Patriots didn't attack like they attacked Denver or even St. Louis, then you've got a point, but that's ess terrible coaching than a flawed gameplan.
    Without Brady the Patriots are 5-3, beating teams they're "supposed" to lose to, and more than in contention for a seventh division title and a shot a Revenge Bowl XLIII.
