Pats D was on the field waaaay to long. They came off the field and would have trainers working on them to get rid of cramps especially the RCA dome was warm. The Pats offense didnt help the defense with the offense not on the field as long the Colts. Fatigue, I feel, was a major issue in that game for the Pats.
lol, the rumors are already abound that they turned the heat up in the dome knowing alot of the patriots had the flu that week. Yeah, they were spent, the offense needed another first down and couldn't get the job done. Hey, that's why you play to get home field advantage, we turn the cold and snow on:D
Great game, sad to see the Pats lose, but you can't win all the time. Patriot fans have nothing to complain about, most fans dream of seeing a 6 year run the Pats had. And it's good for the league to see the Colts in the SB, imo. I am still not thrilled to see the Bears in the SB, I just think the matchups favor the Colts. I think Seattle vs the Colts or Dallas vs the Colts would have been more interesting. But hey, that's why they play the games, maybe the Bears will surprise me.
