Super Bowl XLIV: Indianapolis Colts vs New Orleans Saints

    Yeah...if you're going to go for it you better have a better play than that...

    Saints controlled that whole 2nd quarter and only came away with a FG. What a waste.
  • Non
    Saints calling timeout shows that he's trying still act bad being aggressive

    adding smoke to the fire
  • Non
    they got lucky there making the stop

    50 seconds would've been a lot of time for Manning to drive it down for a FG

    Going for it was the right play.

    They need touchdowns, not field goals.

    The play call was shitty, but going for it was the right call.

    Dang I want the Colts to win but I can't stand Hart and don't want him to get a ring :(
  • Non
    I think they should've taken the points

    long drive back in the game, don't come away with nothing
  • Non
    their offense is in a groove now, though
  • tk421
    Colts have had some missed opportunities.
  • tk421
    Saints with another FG try. 10 - 6.

    10-6 Half
  • Non
    two pressure kicks for Hartley

    well, they're back to where they would've been

    10-6 Colts

    halftime

    What happened to the high scoring blowouts?
  • mallymal614
    This game is nowhere near as close as the score indicates. Colts should be up by at least 2 touchdowns.
  • Non
    that drop by Garcon obviously took this game in a different direction

    Disagree. Saints controlled the clock and the ball in the 2nd.
  • Non
    Saints had the ball for seven minutes after that

    Same could be said by the early Colsten drop that would have had the Saints in Colts territory early in the 1st.
  • Non
    they should've gave Colston a chance on the 4th and 2

    he had the drop but still is tough to cover

    A more defensive game so far than most thought with 4 punts and only one TD. I think the Saints going for it on 4th down was the right call! You have to figure that part of the good thin of not making it is having the other team backed way up, which they did and got a FG out of it. A 44 yd FG is much more satisfying than a 19 yarder which makes you wonder what might have been. The Saints found out what might have been and got the FG too!

    Yeah, that was a poor call. I think Payton over thought it and tried to be too tricky....it is the Super Bowl, gotta play to your strengths.
  • Non
    Colts ball to start the second half
  • mallymal614
    Here is my prediction. If the Colts score on their first series after the half, they win. If the Saints stops them, they will win.

    Colston had one and Garcon two drops that hurt their team.

    Sounds reasonable.
