Peyton Manning finally finally gets his final
NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
Did you say the Super Bowl is that way?
You guessed it. He got that monkey off his back.
Peyton Manning is going to the Super Bowl!
It will be Peyton and the Colts vs. Rex Grossman and Da Bears!
The offense of the Colts vs. the Defense of the Bears.
Peyton pulled out the game with the Patriots with a final drive in the last minute, culminating with a Joseph Addai touchdown with a minute to go.
Final Score Colts 38 Patriots 34.
The Squibster predicted this one correctly, although as the game played out, you never would have known. New England had a 21 - 6 lead and seemed… to have Manning stymied.
In the second half, Indy tied up the game with 4 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter. The game see sawed the rest of the way, with New England always taking the go ahead points until the final minute when Indy finally took the lead on Addai’s touchdown.
In a strange play on the final drive, Reggie Wayne of the Colts, fumbled the ball straight up into the air as he was being tackled and caught it as he was going down. It made no difference as there was a roughing the quarterback called on the play.
In a final bit of irony, Marlon Jackson, who played at UM, intercepted Tom Brady, who played at UM, to finish the game.
Peyton gets his due. He is in the Super Bowl and he did it in Peyton fashion with some great passes to go over 300 yards.
Peyton knew there would not be many more chances to get to the Super Bowl and coming from way behind to defeat his arch rival and chief nemesis, Tom Brady and the Patriots, had to make it just that much sweeter.
Hats off to Peyton Manning and the Colts. See you February 4th in the Super Bowl!
