You're right. The Jets suck and the Pats are mad super awesome. That's the only way you'll be happy, right? I'm out to celebrate this before it comes crashing down next week. I'll tip one up for Jim Caldwell if it makes you feel better.

I'm a diehard Colts, this was painful to watch. No undefeated regular season, streak over. I'll be surprised if they make it to the Superbowl and more surprised if they win it. I'm afraid Jim Caldwell's first hurrah will be his last. It will be all downhill after this season.

From the Jets standpoint, Caldwell's decision was great. But, seriously, what's the goal, 16-0, or winning the Super Bowl? He made it clear that the a championship is more important. This is not to say that the two were mutually exclusive, but Caldwell felt going into the playoffs healthy was top priority.

They mentioned some stats on the broadcast, that Indianapolis had the most wins EVER in one decade, yet only one Super Bowl victory to show for it. Both impressive and un-impressive at the same time.

And three times they took a dive to end the regular season ... three times they took an early exit in the playoffs. Honestly, I'd rather see the Colts lose because they were a player or two short due to injury than to lose like this again.

Me too, but Polian has never forgotten the injury to Cornielus Bennett that kept him out of the playoffs. He talked about it on his radio show several times. Right or wrong? Doesn't matter, he's stubborn and he's got Jim Isray's ear. Will be interesting to see if his son Chris is the same way.
