Although I'm a huge Dolphin fan, I was pulling for NE for one reason; stop the Colts from advancing to a possible undefeated season. I know some NFL team out there is gonna go undefeated one day......just not in my lifetime I hope

I've been out the last few days, but I'd like to thank Bill for making that call. I bleed blue
As far as the spot on the ball. He was bobbling the ball in his hands, so he did not have positive control until he was already knocked back. He didn't have his feet on the ground when he had control until he stepped back. That means no forward progress.
It was a crap-shoot. Historically, I know my Colts Defense is hit and miss, they just happened to get lucky. Peyton was hot, a 2-minute drill down the field is actually one of the things he does best. So punting I think would've guarantee'd the result of the game, whereas I think the Pat's had the better chance in going for it.
I always enjoy this game when it comes around, always a good one because there's a lot of passionate fans on both sides.
A side note, during the broadcast they compared how many times Peyton and Brady were on magazine covers. Both 5 or 6 times. Peyton was always on Sports Illustrated, Brady was on many other non-sports related pretty-boy mags'. I just thought that was funny
